The whole instrumental album was released by the band itself, on the special edition of Nightmare, called 'The Book of Nightmares', so please do not ask stupid questions like 'OMG HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT?!!?!?!" jajajajaaja I didn´t know about the instrumental release, such a good thing to just listen to the music...!!
I can sing the words in my head in beat with the instrumental. I feel incredibly special. This is so amazing. The song is so fast and heavy I never really could pick apart the instruments from Matt's sexy voice. But I probably will be able to now, forever.
No before jimmy died the only songs that M. shadows had the lyrics all finished was nightmare and dangerline. Jimmy loved the lyrics so much that M. shadows didn't want to change them after jimmy died. There is an interview on here where Matt talks about it. I'll send you the link once i find it.
at first time I listen this song I think this is a scary song but when the guitar start playing I talk to myself like are you serious this is a fucking metal song omg
This should be the victory song for our troops over in Iraq! This song (instrumental) for some reason proves that our army is the best, like just think about it.
@myhotdating He wasn't Rex he was The Rev actually.. :D In this album, the drummer is Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater/ Liquid Tension Experiment/ Transatlantic and many more projects!
@Silicinomafia Brian Haner Sr. is the only other person alive that could play that solo...Synyster's an amazing guitarist (their harmonies simply blow my mind), but his dad could wipe the floor with Syn.
That Riff is so fucking Heavy... the vocals hide its power... if you play it on a real guitar and play it loud, its juste so damn heavy, Gotta Love A7X
Best band ever
agreed
I would buy a separate album of only instrumentals of all of their best.
Best avenged sevenfold song of all time
I hope the City of Evil songs get an instrumental release. The music on those songs is just crazy and would love to hear it in more detail
The riff starting at 4:09 is so heavy and powerful I headbang every time!
TheMusicTitan yes
10/10 w/out vocals
10/10 w/the sla/shes
The piano part before the chorus is so soothing.
I just came here because of the drums it's sounds good asf
Brian Hernandez ikr!?

Nightmare!(now your nightmare comes to life)
Dragged ya down below
Down to the devil's show
To be his guest forever
Peace of mind is less than never
Hate to twist your mind
But God ain't on your side
An old acquaintance severed
Burn the world your last endeavor
Flesh is burning
You can smell it in the air
'Cause men like you have
Such easy soul to steal (steal)
So stand in line while
They ink numbers in your head
You're now a slave
Until the end of time here
Nothing stops the madness,
Turning, haunting, yearning
Pull the trigger
You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
Can't wake up in a sweat
'Cause it ain't over yet
Still dancing with your demons
Victim of your own creation
Beyond the will to fight
Where all that's wrong is right
Where hate don't need a reason
Loathing self-assassination
You've been lied to
Just to rape you of your site
And now they have the nerve
To tell you how to feel (feel)
So sedated as they
Medicate your brain
And while you slowly
Go insane they tell ya
"Given with the best intentions
Help you with your complications"
You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Oh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
Hahahahah
Fight
Not to fail
Not to fall
Or you'll end up like the others
Die
Die again
Drenched in sin
With no respect for another
Down
Feel the fire (fire)
Feel the hate
Your pain is what we desire
Lost
Hit the wall (wall)
Watch you crawl (crawl)
Such a replaceable liar
And I know you hear their voices (calling from above)
And I know they may seem real (these signals of love)
But our life's made up of choices (some without appeal)
They took for granted your soul
And it's ours now to steal
You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
Jonathan Tjg I
It’s without the vocals but thanks for giving me it I almost forgot

You're now a slave until the end of time here
Nothing stops the madness turning
Haunting, yearning, pull the trigger
You should've known the price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
While your nightmare comes to life
Can't wake up in sweat, 'cause it ain't over yet
Still dancin' with your demons (victim of your own creation)

Rock In Paradise the Rev...foREVer

Avenged sevenfold FOR THE FUCKING WIN \m/
The whole instrumental album was released by the band itself, on the special edition of Nightmare, called 'The Book of Nightmares', so please do not ask stupid questions like 'OMG HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT?!!?!?!" jajajajaaja I didn´t know about the instrumental release, such a good thing to just listen to the music...!!
That is the best instrumental I have ever heard.
The piano part ❤❤ #2018
This is a cool song
I can sing the words in my head in beat with the instrumental. I feel incredibly special. This is so amazing. The song is so fast and heavy I never really could pick apart the instruments from Matt's sexy voice. But I probably will be able to now, forever.
1:03 God DAYUM those chugs in the background
If you have speakers turn the bass all the way up and listen to it. It will crush you from the inside. No lie.
eu so apaixonado por essa musica veeey
personal oppinion, i hate the lyrics but i love the guitar. so this is perfect
So amazing
I Love James Owen Sullivan Jimmy The Rev
He didn’t play on this record, Mike Portnoy did, right?
Either way, gotta love the rev
@@ethansics9400 no the rev did then he passed
No before jimmy died the only songs that M. shadows had the lyrics all finished was nightmare and dangerline. Jimmy loved the lyrics so much that M. shadows didn't want to change them after jimmy died. There is an interview on here where Matt talks about it. I'll send you the link once i find it.
Track is so sick !!! Thanks for the Instrumental.
I love using these tracks for my D&D boss fights. Shit gets tense as fuck!
Because of you I now have a kick ass ringtone.
Thanks bruh!
I really like the Instrumental part.
1:01
NIGHTMARE!!! No, wait.. what?

02:38 love it!!

I could rage to this song all day long.
This should be the victory song for our troops over in Iraq! This song (instrumental) for some reason proves that our army is the best, like just think about it.
This just shatters the laws of epic. XD
i love the piano scence. awesome O_O
This sounds BAD ASS!!!!!!
I always enjoy the piano part but i cant find it played specifically on youtube without vocals
perfect instrumental for an anime
so great
This song is the perfect song for the Movie "Blade" dont ask why but I just think it is.
this is probably the funniest youtube comment i have read in months
i love the beginning i wish there was songs like that
I never even knew there was piano until I listened to the instrumental
at 4:50 ..the part thats i love to hear evrytime.
best part is the double bass amazingness
@a7xFactor It's the album cover, if you go buy the album it's there because it has bad words on it. :p The album is called "Nightmare".
Good Bye RIP Rev
the piano
@CAswaggR oh god, i cant even begin to fathom the amount of awesome that song would contain.
it would b so sick to learn to play this!
AMAZING....
AWSOME!
Muito zika esse som!
love the transistion in 3:12
@junkersju87zombie It was also released by Warner Bros. records.
totally epic tbh
YOU ARE MY GOD
the guitar riff at 1:11 is a very simple riff but its still brilliant..
Win. I love playing the intro on glockenspiel. X)
yea yea yea dancing to this song xD gonna be GREAT
@Diamondsandglitter12 yuppp
evrytime i play this song it gets stuck in my head
@TheLolman2009 dont feel too bad. synyster gates is just about the only guy alive who can play that solo
3:10 onward gives me chills.
when A7x come in Indonesian ?
@myhotdating He wasn't Rex he was The Rev actually.. :D
In this album, the drummer is Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater/ Liquid Tension Experiment/ Transatlantic and many more projects!
This is soooooooooo fucking incredible!
I AM TALKING IN ALL CAPS. THIS MAKES WHAT I'M SAYING MORE IMPORTANT.
@Silicinomafia Brian Haner Sr. is the only other person alive that could play that solo...Synyster's an amazing guitarist (their harmonies simply blow my mind), but his dad could wipe the floor with Syn.
Double bass rocks ....
Amazing
The pauses just aren't the same without the "IT"S YOUR FUCKIN" NIGHTMMAAAAAARRRREEE!!!" in there.
That Riff is so fucking Heavy... the vocals hide its power... if you play it on a real guitar and play it loud, its juste so damn heavy, Gotta Love A7X
@CrAZBoy0211 yes that´s true but his drumbeat wasn´t completed and couldn´t be used at the album so mike finished it
:D This is amazing!!
i love Syn
@TheLolman2009 yeah they are more like hard rock but they still have some metalcore melodies in their songs
awesome!!!
Might be my captain tryout song
i agree !
