Melissa Smith of Prime Video Magazine sits down with M- Shadows and Syn Gates of Avenged Sevenfold to talk about the new self titled album coming out October 30.
@@nuke2625 More like "Nothing hurts my world, Just affects the ones around me. When sin's deep in my blood, You'll be the one to fall!" you're thinking of Almost Easy.
When Matt says he likes playing Unholy Confessions because its easy, Syn's bursts out a "HA-HA"... wonder if he was thinking "yeah not so easy for me" hahaha that solo is just insane
There isn't a solo on unholy confessions dude. Unholy, clairvoyant diseases, radiant eclipse, desecrate through reverence, and a few others don't have solos...
"I like playing Unholy Confessions, cuz it's easy." I like how Syn gave an entire explanation as to why he likes playing Scream and Matt summed up his favorite song to play in just one sentence.
the interviewers face at 2:07 is me af😍 also I realize it's 2017 and I'm still stalking these poor guys via RUclips even though I'm a grown ass woman but I mean it's 1:41am and it's my day off so I deserve it 😂
KatyKoo, I was thinking that at first but if you look at it again, it's even funnier When Matt does that salute after she introduces them, he seems pleased with himself and looks to Syn for confirmation but he just stares at Shads like "Dude...you're an idiot" and Matt looks away like "I tried..." Awesome.
scream really is an awesome song live. i got a chance to hang out with M. Shadows after their show in orlando and he was talkin about how much he liked doin Scream cuz it was so groove oriented
Lol, fair enough. I still like everything they've done...it's just you really can't beat that album. I wish they'd play more from it live. That would rock.
Most of the questions asked in interviews have about the same line, well, during the same time period. But there's one question that I've never heard asked and it's a pretty wide question but if I had the chance I would ask any band "Why do you love music?" Because most musicians would reply with a heartfelt answer that would reveal who they are inside and why they do what they do. That question would open anyone up and make then more honest and generous with the answers they give.
@NeverShoutFaggot One more thing.... I fell in love with the then-nameless-in-my -mind "guitarist" as soon as I heard the Bat Country solo. I remember it being really mindblowing the first time I heard it. I did not know what Syn looked like when I heard that solo, but that didn't change the fact that I thought the guitarist was phenomenal. Although it really doesn't hurt knowing what Syn looks like because he is gorgeous lol.
They are still good, just exploring their different tastes. Just because they don't play stuff similar to W.T.F material, does not catergorise them as no longer playing well. I have to agree though, it's by far my favourite album of theirs.
I know, he looked really squishy and cuddly and overall perfect. And seriously, they've always looked good no matter what. And they totally rock. The fact that they're smoking is just a bonus xD Damn good bonus
@NeverShoutFaggot I feel exactly the same. I'm also a "fangirl"; my brother sent me Bat Country around the time it first came out, and I listened to it by myself, to the insane guitar solo and the fucking fast drumming, and I was amazed. I never actually thought about searching for what they looked like until years later, and although their looks do add to the overall awesomeness of the band, what i really love are their amazing music, talent and compositions.
He looks like a wrestler when he was young. And now he looks like Jesus Christ, because his persona is so much humble, kindful and hospitaly. Even I saw his interview he wore a hoddie with rosary. He is a Roman Catholic
@gerdonagh I agree, even though I'm a girl. I've been listening to them since seventh grade and I just graduated from high school now. I mean, I think they're attractive and all that, but I also think they're amazing artists and musicians.
I can't even express how much i laughed at that. All i will say is i DID have a mouth full of coffee Now i don't but my screen is a new colour. Thanks.
yeah i agree with you there and i was also thinking a little techno influence due to how the voices sound. Does that make sense or does that just sound stupid?
of course they fight, but theyre the type of bands that.well they arent soo out there with publicity like theyre not the type of band that will annouce theyre arguments to the world=] wich i love btw.. theyre a fuckin unreal amazing band. i love them to death, even thoufh i dont know them in person
The way Matt looked at Syn in the beginning was like "dude why the fuck are we here?"
"I like playing unholy confessions cause it's easy" 😂😂
That Song be like. "Comeback to me its almost easy"
@@nuke2625 More like "Nothing hurts my world,

@@nuke2625 Now that I think about it that was probably a pun XD
It sure was a pun lol 😂
"It's our best one."
City of Evil would like a word with you Matt.
Self titled to this day is the greatest metal album ever made!!!
i feel like they legit dont give city of evil the credits it deserves, they best album by a lot in my opinion
@@Chuckichanly 💯%
FoREVer a7x 💀🦇
Shads is so cute.
god I know!!
00:16 matt: shes hot
wow its amazing a lead singer acually lets the other person answer in an interview its never been done before
I love m shadows hair in this interview
God damn, Shadows' voice has changed a lot over the years
When Matt says he likes playing Unholy Confessions because its easy, Syn's bursts out a "HA-HA"... wonder if he was thinking "yeah not so easy for me" hahaha that solo is just insane
Don’t think there’s a solo on Unholy confessions
Yeah I don't think so either :p
He's probably saying it because it's super easy for him as well haha
There isn't a solo on unholy confessions dude. Unholy, clairvoyant diseases, radiant eclipse, desecrate through reverence, and a few others don't have solos...
The dual part I consider the “solo” for that song, but it’s not HARD 😂
lol i like how in the begining m shadows is lookin around all smiley then syn gives him a look then he gets straight faced
"I like playing Unholy Confessions, cuz it's easy." I like how Syn gave an entire explanation as to why he likes playing Scream and Matt summed up his favorite song to play in just one sentence.
M shadows is so cute when he talks on interviews but he sings, he looks really bad ass.
can't stop playing 00:17 m shadows so hot
HAHA, I love how Matt's like waiting *omgIthoughtofsomethingfunnytosay* for half a minute to tell his joke about Unholy Confessions.
Matt: "I like playing unholy confessions cause it's easy"
Brian: "HA-HA" *thinks* "it may be easy for you but I cant say the same thing for myself"
gosh Shads is so adorable!
how fucking handsome is m shadows, holy fuck.
Why'd he look at Syn like that in the beginning? haha
They're secretly in love can't you tell?
Matt just thought Syn saw him as he did the salute gesture
When I see the time it was published I knew then that I lived through an amazing time for metal music !
"I like Unholy Confessions, because its easy." Hahah :p
They are so adorable!! Shadows was being all bashful lol
haha shadz is so funny....like flirty kid stile :)
syn's the man,...serious and calm....
hahahaha
I think this album is the best yet, not as much screaming and you can hear how much A7X have matured in their playing.
2:52 These guys' muscles are huge!
the interviewers face at 2:07 is me af😍 also I realize it's 2017 and I'm still stalking these poor guys via RUclips even though I'm a grown ass woman but I mean it's 1:41am and it's my day off so I deserve it 😂
Ikobot Lihn I'm a grown woman too, but am still following them everywhere, as well. Every new live video, every video clip, im on alert. ☺😛✔〽
It’s 2020 and I am still doing this... am I late to the party?
@@fish2399 no😂
I love the way that woman tries to act like she likes and actually cares about avenged sevenfold.
a7x amazing!
R.I.P Jimmy, A7X will never be the same without you
Can't wait for this new album
KatyKoo, I was thinking that at first but if you look at it again, it's even funnier
When Matt does that salute after she introduces them, he seems pleased with himself and looks to Syn for confirmation but he just stares at Shads like "Dude...you're an idiot" and Matt looks away like "I tried..." Awesome.
i really wanna go see one of their shows and meet everbody
Dylan Hendrix Bat Country was on Madden 2006. The one with Donovan McNabb on the Front.

They're so amazing =]
These two ROCK!!
Hahaha matt is shy around her! He's all flirty and he won't make eye contact haha
Ummm hes married. And hes like super into his wife.
Dualshock Girl This was in 2007... they weren’t married until 2009
scream really is an awesome song live. i got a chance to hang out with M. Shadows after their show in orlando and he was talkin about how much he liked doin Scream cuz it was so groove oriented
Haha syn and Matt are so cute and shy here cause they freaking fancy the pants off that girl .Their also trying to look cool aswellxD
Lol, fair enough. I still like everything they've done...it's just you really can't beat that album. I wish they'd play more from it live. That would rock.
Young and wild.

I would like to see more videos shot from this location because it looks to me like this is the place they recorded all the songs before going on tour
best album of all time.
1:56 hah look at matt look at her
M Shadows should of said "i like playing Unholy Confessions bc it's almost easy" 😂😂
the end part where syn says about scream... "its really slow....n its a departure of my really fast stuff in reverse" that was hilarious
omfg ITS SYN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My god matts dimples make me melt!! Wooh
@NeverShoutFaggot One more thing.... I fell in love with the then-nameless-in-my -mind "guitarist" as soon as I heard the Bat Country solo.

its funny how m. shadows and syn stare at each other.....its like......syn sayin to m shadows......'dude be cool'
Matt seems really nervous and shy he cant stay still
They are still good, just exploring their different tastes. Just because they don't play stuff similar to W.T.F material, does not catergorise them as no longer playing well.
I have to agree though, it's by far my favourite album of theirs.
1:51 R.I.P :(
I know, he looked really squishy and cuddly and overall perfect. And seriously, they've always looked good no matter what. And they totally rock. The fact that they're smoking is just a bonus xD Damn good bonus
she's so hot, I'd like to interview her
omg Matt's dimples 🥺

i hope there will be an intervew with them about the REV how they feel about it.
He looks like a wrestler when he was young. And now he looks like Jesus Christ, because his persona is so much humble, kindful and hospitaly. Even I saw his interview he wore a hoddie with rosary. He is a Roman Catholic
Hello from 2021 :)
Aw, both of them are so hot and adorable. Also, I love M.Shads explanation for why he likes doing Unholy Confessions.
@gerdonagh YESSS! DUDE! I couldn't have said it better. Thank you.
That's actually a reference to what syn said in a previous interview. :D
lol...at th end matts like yeah!
hahaha at :15 Shadows is like hey! =) and looks at Syn and hes like -.- hahaha
@gerdonagh I agree, even though I'm a girl. I've been listening to them since seventh grade and I just graduated from high school now. I mean, I think they're attractive and all that, but I also think they're amazing artists and musicians.
OMG he did. I think a piece, no, a chunck of me just died.
Matty is such a badass with SUCH a babyface.
Gotta lov him.
cant help but agree with that
I can't even express how much i laughed at that. All i will say is i DID have a mouth full of coffee Now i don't but my screen is a new colour. Thanks.
i like how m shadows is all smiles and lookin around then looks at syn and is like fuck u too lol
City of Evil to Nightmare is the best a7x era hands down

They sound hung over.

Probably both! 😂😂😂

the self titled album is the best!!
he raised his eyebrows at her then looked at syn saying shes soooo fuckin hot i dont blame him
I luv mshadows and unholy confessions
yeah i agree with you there and i was also thinking a little techno influence due to how the voices sound. Does that make sense or does that just sound stupid?
3:39 YEA!

Definately their best album (Self titled) but Waking the Fallen is badass and so are all other records.

Syn: mmm...

@redlinebam What I meant was ''rehearsed'' the songs before going on tour
