I don’t think they screamed together. I think he let it go when he just sings the word live. Don’t hear the scream. If anything that makes Shadow’s voice even better
I believe Afterlife was written fully by their drummer Jimmy " The Rev" Sullivan. They said he wrote something like 70 percent of the whole album in total
So this concert would have been some time between the release of their 4th album in 2007 and the drummer's passing in 2009. The lead singer blew out his voice sometime in 2014 and changed his style a bit. This show was legendary for a number of reasons. Glad you are enjoying it.
@@Lyeit I always thought it was special add on just at the end of Taste of Chaos tour, but I think your right when I looked it up, it was part of that tour, I saw them two days later in San Jose
You are right. Hail to the King was the start to the “change” of direction for them. Matt knew it too. That’s why we also got a change to Bullet for my Valentine. They changed for the same reasons. But still kept to the sound in a way.
@@jimmygee3219 no no, he also had a serious issue with his voice around 2014 which got worse around 2016 until now. Listen to his 2018 performance of this song and you’ll notice how bad it sounds. Especially when singing lyrics like “of your afterlife here so stay. He can barely even sing the words in that pitch anymore. Now, if you listen to one of the most recent interviews he explains he had a severe injury to his voice that most singers don’t come back from and ended up on complete vocal rest for a few months
Critical Acclaim from this concert is really great too!! Has more of the drummer singing. Scream is fun too, and A Little Piece of Heaven. Might as well watch the whole show 😂
If you really want a ballad, check out "Seize the Day" from this concert. Literally M. Shadows and Syn channeling Axl Rose and Slash in the best way possible.
This was from the Taste of Chaos Tour back in 2008. I attended that show, and by far it still sits at the top for me. I’m glad you’re enjoying their music. New fans are always welcome.
@@1dudecrush Yes, this was at The Long Beach Arena, now Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center. Amazing lineup from bands like Bullet for My Valentine, Atreyu, Idiot Pilot, Blessthefall, and Japanese bands like The Underneath. I had the pleasure of watching The Rev perform live, and it’s a memory that’ll stick with me forever.
@@1dudecrush At the time, I didn’t really see it as a “once in a lifetime” show, I was just there to see bands I like and jump into mosh pits. I’m 34 right now and still doing the same thing. Going to see them again in October in Chula Vista; bought pit tickets.
This is the third single from their self-titled album. The song features a string orchestra and was written by the band's drummer, The Rev. Some of the songs in the album used strings instrument as background.
Totally agreed! And i love Zacky’s voice, he’s such a great singer as well. I love the Misfits cover, and I REALLY love the cover they did of Runaway with Zacky on lead vocals.
Next avenged sevenfold reactions from this LBC live: Scream Second heartbeat Almost easy Also don't watch A little piece fo heaven live version, only official music video is allowed for you as a starter for this band, u won't get the idea of that song if u won't watch the official video, just saying
@@RIPJimmyA7X Yeah on self titled Jimmy put in work. Certain songs are almost all him. A Piece of Heaven is 80 percent Jimmy, 10 percent Matt, and then they added a ridiculous amount of layers on it. You can search out the making of self titled on youtube and then of course, A7X has the breakdowns they did from 2019 to 2021 for some particular popular songs on a playlist and they splice in the footage from the recording of those songs in there.
First and foremost I wanna say that I’m biased as A7X is my favorite band, but they’re easily top 3 best concert experiences I’ve ever had. And it’s top three because it’s hard to rank them. Secondly, I think you said something super interesting that’s relevant to the band to this day. As you said, they have a unique sound. I remember at the absolute height of their popularity hearing discussions about it, that essentially came down to “They’re too metal for rock and too rock for metal”. They were thrown into the nu-metal/ metalcore sort of category and even then it was still talked about. It just comes down to the fact that they’re themselves, and they’re not afraid to make stuff that their intrigued by. They’re so themselves, that that’s kind of a talking point currently. In the fifteen years that this came out, they’ve evolved and changed as a band. They’re set to release an album early June and it’s the first one in seven years. They’ve released two tracks and it’s much different from what you’re hearing now, and they get compared to the “old” sound. It’s the same with bands like Muse. They evolve, and fans get up in arms about it.
They've never been a band to shy away from more classical instrumentation. A lot of people are suggesting A Little Piece of Heaven, which might still be one of their most creative songs from an instrumentation standpoint. It's amazing. Just be aware though that the subject matter of the song is extremely vulgar, it's a twisted love song with murder and some even more disturbing things. They basically told The Rev to write the zaniest, whackiest song he could. Definitely worth a listen though. Unholy Confessions may be my favorite song from this concert too!
FYI A7X is making their long awaited comeback next month with a album and tour 👍👍 also have to do the video for So far away it's about the drummer if you didn't know
RIP The Rev. He was great and brought so much to his friends & the band. I'm guessing this was before M.Shadows had throat surgery. Now the sound is a bit different but still great
its incredible watching or listening to their live performances and then the studio version to appreciate how good they are. They literally sound the same performing live
You’re right about the bridge. They use an orchestra in the studio for a lot of their songs so it’s just a recording live. Ps. I’d sell one of my kidneys to be able to see just one live show with the Rev
10:45 has got to be the most iconic moment of this band That awesome harmony between Shadows and Rev, right into the guitar duel, Syn nailing the solo, Shadows amping it up into a maniacal laugh while Syn just let's that final note ride holding the guitar with a single finger by the whammy like he just accomplished the impossible. Just goddamn iconic.
I'm glad you said the chorus sounds like a ballad. The Rev actually wrote most of this song himself and there is a quote from the DVD from the making of this album that most of the stuff he came up with was very poppy in nature. And it IS a violin. The song features an entire orchestral arrangement. There is a second version of this song from the Diamond In The Rough album that features all the cut parts of the orchestral arrangement.
This is actually the late 2000s. 2008 specifically ... This song was recorded with a string symphony in the studio for the album that's being played on the PA for live shows
This song is writed by the rev, the former drummer of avenged sevenfold. Maybe u must try gunslinger and a little piece of heaven from this concert too. Hope u enjoy it ❤
Those screams from M Shadows sound more musical because he actually does put his voice into them, which gives them a distinct pitch. He's really good at those.
A7X means so much to me. Just got my first tattoo, and ofc it had to be their logo. They have so freaking many bangers, I really recommend that you listen to all of their albums, it is such an experience. I have 46 of their songs in my playlist that I think are absolutely amazing, and I don´t think they have many bad songs at all. The Rev is really missed though, he was a massive part of the band, as a singer and as one of the best drummers ever.
When you said the chorus felt almost like a ballad I was like YEAH EXACTLY because that's what makes A7X amazing (my personal opinon ofc). They include so many different elements in a single song like different instruments or choirs, strings, piano etc. and the rhythm & singing style always change, keeping you alive. That's why most of their songs feel like a rollercoaster ride. When the lyrics are also satisfying and meaningful the become such enjoyable art pieces.
I saw them in London England during this time in their careers... DEFINITELY the best A7X era! Their stuff has gotten kinda weird now, but everything UP TO Hail To The King.... THAT is the Avenged Sevenfold I loved and saw when the incredible Jimmy The Rev was still with us! ❤😢💔🤘🤘🤘
Every girl in that stadium has a crush on M Shadows. And Vengance. And Gates. And Christ. And REV... the boys tho... they're all for Synyster Gates baby
9:15 the Revs "I need another chance to live!" always gives me goosebumps
He needs tho
@@Masilvaaafor real
Even crazier now that he's gone, they play it with his backing vocals and he's not there. It's just so weird.
bro so true!!@Fulbor
@@mjstories7181they have to play them though. No one can sing like Jimmy
Seize the day live in the LBC is also awesome
Next seize the day❤️
Wait until you hear Scream from that same concert
A talent beast 🎤
Eargasms
the part between 8:09 and 8:59, gives me so much chills, REV and Shadows screaming together its the best sound ever created
I don’t think they screamed together. I think he let it go when he just sings the word live. Don’t hear the scream. If anything that makes Shadow’s voice even better
@@brownfella1830 their voice merges so good together. Shadows voice was so on point around this time. Im glad he came back so good after the pause.
At this point you've just gotta do every song from Live in the LBC haha. Great reaction
Yes please
I agree. Pls do all the Songs
yessssss
next. seize the day please
PLEASE DO THIS🔥🔥🔥
tip: never pause a synyster gates solo
Can't believe nobody has mention the vocal performance on Gunslinger during this show. Probably one of the most powerful. Still gives me chills.
agreed man
Yep gotta agree love the performance of it in this show. Just so good.
im positive someone has mentioned/posted it. a7x is one of the most popular metal bands of all time.
Also Walk
The entire concert, if u ask me. Total masterpiece
The Rev wrote this song..
Unholy confessions from this concert is absolutely legendary
Fact!!
The problem with this concert is that it ends! they are all legendary

It ain't just the girls who have a crush on the lead singer🥴
I believe Afterlife was written fully by their drummer Jimmy " The Rev" Sullivan. They said he wrote something like 70 percent of the whole album in total
10:34 Dude this part always sends chills down my spine, the way Syns guitar screams along side with Mats scream.. Man
And he’s one handed his guitar
One of the BEST live concert recordings ever! Love A7X!
No doubt IMO
So this concert would have been some time between the release of their 4th album in 2007 and the drummer's passing in 2009. The lead singer blew out his voice sometime in 2014 and changed his style a bit. This show was legendary for a number of reasons. Glad you are enjoying it.

I was anticipating for a little piece of heaven, but this is good too, can't wait
Lets Go A little piece of heaven

the Rev's vocals are the SPIRITS of that song
I love your reactions to A7X, keep it up!

She already did that One.
That’s the first one she did
My bad, didn’t realize it.
Please don't pause in the middle of a Synyster Gates solo ever again, other than that I thoroughly enjoyed the video.
If you really want a ballad, check out "Seize the Day" from this concert. Literally M. Shadows and Syn channeling Axl Rose and Slash in the best way possible.
💯
please keep doing more from this concert! seriously one of the best concerts you can react to
Imma dude and M. Shadows was my gay awakening lmao.

@@MrHappy-cr4wc I’m insanely jealous. This is one of those “once in a lifetime” shows.

This concert was amazing! You can pick pretty much any song here and have a good time.
Let's be honest. Every girl is there for Zachy
A7x A little piece of heaven life LBC PLISS
5 guys, on top of their game. Should check out the rhythm guitarist, Zacky, singing their Misfits covers. He killed it.
Totally agreed! And i love Zacky’s voice, he’s such a great singer as well. I love the Misfits cover, and I REALLY love the cover they did of Runaway with Zacky on lead vocals.
Scream
Beast and the Harlot
Gunslinger
A Little Piece of Heaven
At this point, the whole live🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The whole band, but especially Shadows/Rev, were on FIRE this entire show. Gotta be one of the best rock concerts of all time.
Never stop an epic guitar solo, please 😢
Like Bo Pacino said that is “criminal” 😂

One of the best live bands I have ever seen. I caught them in Atlanta for Mayhem Fest several years back.
Have you seen One Ok Rock Live at Yokohama Stadium before?
The crazy thing is that so much of this concert sounds just like the studio recording. They absolutely killed it.
Can't lie, I've been binging these tonight. Great videos!
🫂 I am so glad your enjoying them! 🫂

They just released a second new song
All of the songs in this particular 1hr video is phenomenal and i wish you could react to all of that songs :D ♥
Id say its 50/50 the girls fanned out over M Shadows and Synyster Gates equally
RIP The Rev. He was great and brought so much to his friends & the band. I'm guessing this was before M.Shadows had throat surgery. Now the sound is a bit different but still great
Hearing The Rev screaming for "another chance to live" is still hard all these years later.
I love that they still pump in his voice on their live shows still today for this song.
Majority of the girls were into the lead guitarist... (black guitar with black vest) if I recall correctly.
Def Leppard is my favorite band. And i like AV7 and they may take that spot...
Correction, it’s every guy in that audience that has a crush on him
The harmony is very angelic🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥☠️☠️☠️☠️
8:49 girl!!! Ur reaction omg❤❤ priceless
i miss you Jimmy The REV
foREVer🙏😭😭❤️🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭
Love your reactions ❤
A7X are such an amazing band. Keep up the great work 🤟
You should try Acid Rain or MIA by avenged sevenfold! Some of the best vocals these guys have done in those songs
its incredible watching or listening to their live performances and then the studio version to appreciate how good they are. They literally sound the same performing live
2:27 when she started getting a crush on Matt even us man think he’s attractive
You’re right about the bridge. They use an orchestra in the studio for a lot of their songs so it’s just a recording live.
Ps. I’d sell one of my kidneys to be able to see just one live show with the Rev

me in the early 2000s yes very much in love with singer... me in 2023 going to see them for the 8th time, still very much in love with him haha.
I suggest you to check out Avenged Sevenfold - Seize the day live lbc ❤
i'm a straight male sitting behind a computer screen and I have a crush on the lead singer 😂such great stage presence and a fantastic singer
This is definitely one of their best songs in my opinion. From start to finish it's perfect.
The fact that one of the guitarist plays an entire show in basucally a suit, is actually insane!
Metallica - Fade to Black live in 2018
So far away, you must to reaction this song
10:45 has got to be the most iconic moment of this band

According to my ex girls love syns
Next a little piece of heaven live lbc
you gotta see the whole LBC show, you won't regret it, belive me!
M. Shadows is so f**** gifted, he is so good....and the Rev, he is in so much pain and singing his heart out...
