Radiohead!!! Live versions of music maybe from 2017 or 2012
Next avenged sevenfold song should be The Stage. It’s a masterpiece as well and they go deeper into that progressive metal vibe
POLO, just an idea 🤔💡💭... Have you ever thought about doing reactions from songs that had a huge influence on you growing up and even up until you started this YT Channel??
Some of your 300k+ Subs can be introduced to a song that otherwise they NEVER would have heard or known about. Kind of like watching you start your journey with *TOOL!!!* 😏😎
Avenged Sevenfold’s entire discography is jacked with bangers. Welcome to Bat Country 🦇
It almost doesn't matter what genre you like either. They've got a little bit of everything
ive literally got like 30 liked songs they've made for sure this one is top 10
@@Nigels_Wrld I’m still discovering their hidden gems like Remenissions off of Waking the fallen or Higher and Roman Sky off of The Stage
"Welcome to the Family" 🦇💀🦇🤘🦇💀🦇
This was one of if not the best drummer of that era. RIP the Rev.
Genre wise. remember mike portnoy and neil peart still existed lol
@@ILikeDonuts666funny you mention portnoy as they brought him on to replace the rev and he couldn’t fill the shoes left for him by jimmy so they let him go.
For those here complaining about the song being metal. Metal is a genre that has saved my life and countless others. It’s given birth to some of the greatest musicians of all time, and many amazing songs bands have come from it. It’s a genre with some of the best fanbases in all of entertainment. You don’t have to understand metal to appreciate what it is, or what it has done for others.
Yeah,what he said.
How does a genre "save your life"? Only Christ can truly save one's life.
@@JuniorFarquarill be sure to thank christ the next time a firefighter rescues me from a burning building.
@@JuniorFarquarChrist isn’t real… how is a fictional character created by man gonna save someone’s life? I guess the people of Gaza and Ukraine need to find Jesus 😂
Yeah metal is more real than any god ever was lol
You probably know the song Bat Country from Madden ‘06… one of the many great songs from that era that made it onto the game.
Possibly!!
A7X, Andrew WK, OK GO, Audiovent, Good Charlottex, AFI... such a great soundtrack
It's on Guitar Hero
Lol… I think it’s also on an MX vs ATV game as well
@@JasonTurner-uk9rk that just unlocked a memory for me, I definetely recognise this song from that game
I heard System of a Down meets dream theatre and said, “yes, totally!” out loud to an empty room except for my cat, who stared at me and Yawned because it could care less.
LOL, great comment, love a7x, love SOAD, love dream theater, and love cats...the rev was a huge fan of portnoy the drummer of dream theater
“I’m not a control freak, but I am a control freak “
- me, everyday. 🤣🤣🤣
It's been a while since I've heard Bat Country. It was my first trip down the Avenged rabbit hole. I don't regret it even though I've moved on. I appreciate your willingness to try all genres.
This song was huge on MTV when it came out. That’s potential where you heard it. Mid 2000’s.
Avenged Sevenfold’s entire discography is jacked with bangers. Welcome to Bat Country 🦇
Next song by them should be The Stage
Saw them live! It was great!! 🔥❤️
The song appeared in these video games…
Madden NFL 06 (2005)
NHL 06 (2005)
SSX on Tour (2005)
Saints Row 2 (2008)
Rock Band 2 (DLC) (2009)
Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock (2010)
Rocksmith 2014 (2014)
Tap Tap Reloaded (2023)
In the movie:
Big Mom's House 2 (2006)
Great song. Great live band. Jane's Addiction
I had the chance to see this band live in my country like 2 weeks ago, and it was wild!! The best show i ever been to 🔥
Was that the Indonesia one? Glad you guys finally got them back there after so long.
@@Bloodtoxx yes sirr, thank you, been listening to A7x since i was a kid, they also bring the used to the show, but i only know 1 song from them, maybe I should learn more about them idk
I can’t believe I forgot how amazing that drum stuff is. Lol. Click track flick that I don’t know whatever that shits fast.😂 also, this is the soundtrack to the movie about Hunter S Thompson.❤
Not officially, it’s based off it! As far as I’m aware.
@@thegamingwubba I did not realize that. I hadn’t heard the song in quite a while.
Avenged Sevenfold has several good songs
Several? So many great songs....
90% of their whole discography is masterpiece material
This bands evolution through the years is wild. From STST to LIBAD. All worth a dive into ...
Great reaction to an awesome song!! Try Avenged Sevenfold "Nightmare." or "Hail To The King." I know you will like them. Peace! 🤘🏼
If anyone dosent know this song is based off the 1998 movie "fear and loathing in LAS VEGA. in this move there is a part where the attorney and his defendant was driving through the desert triping on acid shrooms you name it and while they were driving in the night a bunch of bats are coming from everywhere surrounding all around. Its a crazy movie but its good!!! Hence the song called batcountry
The drummer, Jimmy Sullivan (The Rev), died in 2009
Yep, he commited suicide
@@Qliphirot :( Because he had a painful heart condition
More Avenged Sevenfold please. Any song you pick from them is a great choice.
I can’t believe I forgot how amazing that drum stuff is. Lol. Click track flick that I don’t know whatever that shits fast.😂
Just saw them live, best concert I have ever been to, so talented.
I think I've seen them 6 times amazing performances
Makes me feel like I had a little too much coffee ☕ grandma can dance to any thing 🤣 ✌️ Polo...
The song appeared in the video games Madden 06, NHL 06, SSX On Tour, Saints Row 2, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, and Rocksmith 2014. It also appeared in the movie Big Momma's House 2 and both the TV shows Bones and About a Boy.
Great reaction! Avenged Sevenfold has so many bangers. Afterlife, Cosmic, The Wicked End, Save Me, Exist...
Beast and the Harlot, Heretic, So Far Away, Buried Alive, Dear God
you should definitely do more reactions on this band, they have made 8 albums and most of them sound different from each other, for next reaction i suggest Critical Acclaim (live in LBC) (it's so good that it's better than studio version)
You have to listen to Staind!! Great stuff just like Avenged Sevenfold!! It’s been awhile, Outside, So G
“Critical acclaim - Live in LBC” - there’s a full upscaled version of the concert on RUclips, with timestamps in the description! Would love to see your reaction to it!
A lot of their songs are on guitar hero. They have songs in CoD as well (mostly zombies):
BO1:
Not Ready To Die - Made for the game
Nightmare - Not made for the game
BO2:
Shepherd of Fire - Not made for the game
Carry On - Made for the game
BO3:
Jade Helm (Instrumental) - Made for the game
Shepherd of Fire (Zombie Chronicles: Origins)
Nightmare (Zombie Chronicles: Moon)
BO4:
Mad Hatter - Made for the game
Treyarch loves A7X so much they actually made M. Shadows (lead singer) a character skin in BO4
My top recs for them are:
Not Ready To Die
I won't see you tonight part 1&2
Save Me
Almost Easy
Acid Rain
Roman Sky
Lost it all
Nobody
One of Avenge Seven Fold’s main influences was a band named Mr. Bungle. I highly recommend you check out any track from their album “California”.
Honestly, the band featured on like, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, NFS Most Wanted, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, SSX3, not gonna google which 1 this track was, but that's where your nostalgia is coming from
Not SSX 3 and not American Wasteland
Omg! I did not have you reacting to A7X on my bingo card and I’m SO EXCITED!!!! Seize the Day is a song my sister and I would sing to each other when she would leave for army assignments. Give that one a listen if you give them another whirl. Soooo many good songs.
Metal is expression, anger, frustration, infinite creativity. This song evokes rage, releases pent up emotions, unlike anything i have ever heard! Love the chorus as well, the drums, etc. Badass discovery all around!
I saw them live last October. They were great!
So Far Away from Staind ❤️
@8:45 good analogy homie! Ive been a a fan for over 20 years at this point and I am giving dat solid mang!
Check out Buried Alive, Nightmare, Critical Acclaim, Beast and the Harlot, A Little Piece of Heaven, Shepherd of Fire, Hail to the King, Fiction, The Stage, So Far Away! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I didn't want to like it the first time I heard it, but walked away a fan!
N e xt Avenged Sevenfold, "Seize the Day" "So Far Away"
Tool is metal. And this metal. Its wonderful thoughtful composing of electric guitars and some of the best drums ever
The city of evil album has alot of great songs, these dudes are very talented r.i.p. Rev!
RIP THE REV ❤🤟❤🤟❤ A7X
as a kid never understood the bats...then after a few experiences as an adult they were totally accurate 😂
Late story! But I got into A7X because I remember faintly my Dad playing this song at one point. I believe we were in his truck too. :)
It's a little fuzzy and I can't remember how old I was (some time younger then 15 since my Dad passed away at 15), but yeah!
This song was on a madden game from the late 2000s and it was the first song that always played on the title screen that’s maybe where you heard it
Avenged and Slipknot are my guys!! (Corey Taylor is my profile pic!🤟🏼) Thanks for giving it a shot! Some of Matt’s vocals on other A7X songs are CRAZY!!! Also, NEW SUB! Not sure why RUclips hasn’t recommended before!!
Love The Beast and The Harlot...
Saints row is the game I hope you see this comment😂
love!
This was a "Guitar Hero" song. I think thr 3rd game? Probably why you recognize it. A7X has a great catalogue with a variety sounds you may enjoy.
If you enjoyed this one, try these other great a7X tunes: Nightmare, Shepherd of Fire and Hail to the King. All amazing!!
wtf is that decoration in the back called? am mesmerized
Welcome to the family ;)
Ah man, the music video is epic
Anyone else remember when this song had a grip hold on the #1 spot on TRL. Pretty sure they even made an appearance on the show which was an extremely big deal for "metal/hard rock" bands back then.
Possibly my favorite band of all time (except for the latest album……please don’t hate, A7X diehards). Some other options:
Critical Acclaim live in the LBC
The Stage
Buried Alive (my favorite)
Thanks Polo for you being you.
Been here since about 30/40k subs. I can't buy you a coffee right now as many are trying to tread water with this Building Back Better. But.....If you haven't, try some Incubus. A buddy turned me on to them about 12 years ago, I was going through a divorce, custody battle, bla bla. Nice to see 304k like, love, and respect you and your work.❤
Not sure what age you are Polo but there's a decent chance the game you heard the song on was Madden 06 with McNabb on the cover
This was on one of the early 2000’s Maddens. Say what you want about EA, but the sound tracks from 00-10 were fucking fire.
Cain and Abel, "where is thou brother God asked Cain, knowing full well that Cain had murdered him because God didn't accept his sacrifice. He became enraged and slew his brother. The beginning of sorrow upon the earth, because their parents had disobeyed him. "One day ye shall surely die".
Avenged sevenfold made music for Call of Duty Zombies specifically. In the Black Ops series. Look up “Not Ready to Die” by them and you’ll recognize it immediately if you’ve played zombies.
Edit: also “Shepherd of fire” also in B02 zombies and one of my favorites from them.
My ADHD brain loves this song so much 😅
They have a deep catalog of bangers!
Where's the video
This is A7X’s love letter to Hunter S. Thompson. If you watch the first 10 min of the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and then watch the video for Bat Country, you’ll understand a little better.
“We can’t stop here, this is BAT COUNTRY.” Actually, you should probably watch the entire movie. Johnny Depp’s portrayal of HST is fantastic and yes… it’s a true story.
2:26 this was in a Madden game
I've been listening to metal for five years now (yeah, not a lot, I'm a bit young still) and this is still one of my favorite guitar solos to date.
If you said that Avenged Sevenfold was the best band ever, I would fight you 😅
That being said, they ARE my favourite band of all time.
Also, if you don't like this song, there's likely at least one song that you will like lol
RIP Rev, a true talent gone far too soon. Love A7X and hope to journey along with Polo as he enters yet another rabbit hole of amazing (and often under appreciated) art!
I can’t take my eyes off the thing in the background
Beast and the harlot is another good one from this album
Love Avenged Sevenfold! Mostly the older “Rev-era” ones. They did a song remembering the Rev after he passed, called “So Far Away” which is quite emotional. One of my favorites by this band is “Afterlife”. It isn’t too heavy for those who dislike metal. Most metalheads do not consider Avenged Sevenfold to be metal at all, as a matter of fact.
“I don’t know why I know this song, but I know this song.”
Madden lol
Plz the stage by avenged Sevenfold
Dude, check out their newer song Nobody. So trippy.
Try out Kansas : "Carry on my wayward son"
They have a total of 2 good songs. Your half way through their good stuff.
Saints Row, that's what I knew it from. Real talk. Whole radio soundtrack for 1 and 2 got me so much music back then.
Rock Band, Guitar Hero, and/or Madden. They also have original songs in CoD 🤘🤘
"ive heard this song before"
Did you by chance play the first Saints Row? Thats where you heard it lol that's where I first heard it
Avenged got some songs in bo2 I think
Listen to afterlife
If you’re unfamiliar with Muse, I’d recommend listening to Hysteria as an introduction.
Drummer was fire.
Did you ever play saints row 3? This song was on it
This was 100% on Madden 2006 and NHL 2006. Those songs, whether I liked them or not, are seared into my brain from playing those games for hundreds of hours.
That said, A7X is awesome and you should definitely do more. My next recommendation would be Critical Acclaim (live in the LBC). I'm sure people will say to do A Little Piece of Heaven, which is an amazing song, but the video provides some shock value that people like to see reactors experience. I would say to save A Little Piece of Heaven until you get a few more under your belt from them.
Great reaction, man!
this song was in saints row 2 i remember. idk about any other games prolly madden.
next a7x - unholy confession
It was in Saints Row 2 and quite a few other games.
Madden. That's where you've heard it.
This was on an older Madden game. Like 06 or 07 probably
Hi! I did a short from this video. Where can I send it to you?
You know the song from madden 07
A7X is great stuff. This album was good, nightmare was even better.
LIVE IN LBC ANY SONG 🙏🏼❤️🔥🙌🏼📣
🦇💀🦇 🤘🤘 🦇💀🦇
Could you do a video on the cover by Young and Hyles of Monster.
🤘
