Ok, im 60 grew up during the Metal revolution. I lived it. But after 30 plus years I later. In 2020 i was in shutdown. Looking for something new. Checked these guys out throughly. Had a change of life with these guys. Now they are all i listen to. 1st of all The Stage is total masterpiece piece front to back. 2nd This album is even better. You must read the lyrics and read up kn the concept. Takes multiple listens to get their latest work. Ok i said my peace.
As someone who had never heard any A7X (besides Hail to the King and Unholy Confessions, who hasn't), I really enjoyed this album. I have gone back and listened to their albums up to Nightmare, which I all really liked. I plan on listening to Hail to the King and The Stage when I can. Also, my favorite song by them is Mattel, so your Patreon vid was very fun to watch lol.
first time seeing this channel thanks to avenged sevenfold (my favourite band for 4 years now) liked your opinion, yes it's different (so is almost every album they put out) but that's the beauty of it, for some people only this band's first few albums were great and they fell off, for some hail the the kind and the stage were great, i personally liked this album but some songs from this record takes a few listens to as you said fully form your opinion, if this song was all over the place the rest of the album is about to get way more interesting for you, hope you check out the rest of the album
I think they need to bring in an outside producer to rein them in a little. So many great ideas and moments on this entire album but also a lot of pretty obvious (at least to me) missteps and some very questionable structure and sound choices. This song is a perfect example of that, the beginning guitar stuff is great even when the distortion kicks in, but I saw your face change as soon as the vocals started and I swear I made that same face the first time I heard this song. The barking, almost unintelligible first few lines really ruin that verse(?) for me. They still have this waterfall of great ideas and inspiration, they just need focus. Still a lot to enjoy on this album though.

I am glad that you got a kick out of both the videos, even if my opinion differs to yours 😊 Thank you for watching, Naz! 🤘
This whole album is entirely, purposely all over the place. I think you'll love it more if you go in knowing it.

I like it, but it’s not one of my go to’s.
