    Also, to answer your question, M. Shadows was around 19 when this album was recorded, so yeah, they were pretty young when this was made.

    This time period for the band had the following members active in it:
    Matt Sanders=vocals
    Zacky baker= guitar
    Matt Wentz= bassist
    Jimmy sullivan= drums
    The album was recorded in about a week with a tight budget of 2 grand however brian haner was not, at the time, in the band but matt kept attempting to recruit him over and over and over knowing he was an extremely talented guitar player. Brian and Jimmy were actually in a separate band at the time called pinkly smooth which is primarily just goblin metal stuff very heavily Danny elfman influenced. When brian finally joined the band the reissued the album(blue) with him on guitar playing a song called to end the rapture and that's the song that caught the record labels attention. It's also a song that only seriously dedicated fans really know about. It's only about a minute and a half long you should check it out. All of the band members were still in grade school when this album came out. I'm pretty sure I got all of the information for you possible, have a wonderful rest of your day dude🤘🤘
    Also, are you using a tone cable for rocksmith? I attempted to redownload it and i have absolutely zero idea where my tone cable is so I will have to reorder one. I attempted to check that rocksmith plus game out man but I'm honestly not down with paying 10 bucks a month to play it, I'm not trying be cheap or anything but I stopped playing warcraft because of the subscription service.

      yup, realtone cable. Although he may have it plugged into an external cable, he uses a pedal as well to change tuning.

      @@demyn7848 yes my amp also had the option for a tone selector foot switch. I think I'm going to simply break down and order another cable and run it from my amp to my pc I spent alot of time getting my tone exactly how I wanted and I plan to use it for this game both distorted and acoustic.

      @@emilionavarrete5169 waking the fallen sounded like they had become air tight and way way better at writing. I have 2 demos of my own band from back in the day. The first one sounds like a group of kids who know what their doing but its extremely sloppy and out of time however the second recording sounds super air tight and we really sounded like we got our shit together on that 2nd one. Its something I hold very near and dear to myself I was extremely proud of how much better we clearly had gotten, good times...

    For a Album that was recorded in 8 days with A budget of $2000, it honesty is not that bad. I mean, im a HARD A7X fan, and i still listen to it every now and than. Just Not one of those albums that I personally was wowed by. Its still listenable.

    I played this CD so much when I was in middle school that I had to buy a new one. This is easily my favorite metal core album and I will die by this hill! I’ll acknowledge that it’s not their “best” album, but it just clicks with me and I can’t ever get enough.

    This album is just a big mess that has some good moments, including some sick riffs. Most f Matt's clean vocals are abysmal, and a lot of the lyrics hurt my soul, but I think it was important for them, and they matured a lot musically. since. They were just kids, after all, and frankly, it is more musically than I achieved by that time of my life
