      @@instincthype3630i think the tribute song for the Rev is so far away. fiction is actually a song titled "death" that the Rev finished the song 3 days Before he die so not physically a tribute song since the Rev is still alive and take his part at the song.that is just what i think,don't hate

      @@zsr1352 Not hating. I think Fiction is the tribute due to the fact that Matthew was thinking about keeping the song unreleased. Then he took to the studio and added his own vocals into the song. Also I saw them in concert and he said and I quote "This is for Jimmy" then they play fiction. Take it how you will but from personal experience I say it is the tribute.

    The Rev died due to an enlarged heart back in 2009. He helped write a lot of lyrics for that album and wrote all of the drum parts but died before recording started, so they recorded the album in his honor with Mike Portnoy (The Revs favorite drummer) on drums. Fun fact for ya, they incorporated Jacobs Ladder into the video because it was The Revs favorite movie. The drum kit at the end of the video was The Revs triple bass kit from the 2008 Taste of Chaos tour.

      He died of a drug overdose not the enlarged heart. Enlarged heart would have killed him at some point but he died of drug od. Intentional if you ask me but that's just speculation.

    • @Grxvestoned
      @Grxvestoned 6 лет назад +5

      If I remember correctly the reports said it was like a combination of the 2 but I could be wrong. The enlarged heart was starting to become really painful for him though. It was ruled as accidental.

      ALittlePieceofSyn ya that's true. I'm almost positive that's the case and the band changed the name. He had an enlarged heart and knew he was about to die so, ppl think( its actually pretty oblivious to me) that he knew he was gonna have a long painful death soon and he took a " brompton cocktail" and it was his " note " to the band and the fans. The creepiest and saddest part to me is hearing his voice on it.

    • @pepparmostheelder
      @pepparmostheelder 6 лет назад +9

      This song wasnt actually a tribute per se anymore than the entire album basicly. Nightmare was more or less finished when he passed away, and it was in fact one of his favorites for the new album. So he was very much around when creating it, just not for actually recording it. The band decided to finish this song and all the others on the Nightmare album for him more or less. Most of the songs were more or less "done" (not all parts) Nightmare being one of them, just not recorded when he passed. They were just about to start recording the album when he passed. The video however was obviously aimed for him :)
      So far away was actually also almost finished. As it was originally a song created in tribute to Syn's grandfather by Syn and actually Jimmy aswell (he helped out). But it was then finished and dedicated to Jimmy instead. So on the Nightmare album "So far away" is actually the only song added to the album just as a tribute. The rest were already planned. St. James on the "hail to the king" album is also a song created just as a tribute to Jimmy (hence the name)
      Edit: there are actually drumtracks to this song played by Jimmy himself from the creation phase so to speak.

      So Far Away was written by Syn before The Rev died. The song is about Syn's grandfather. The video is a tribute to Jimmy. Their tribute to Jimmy was Fiction(written by Jimmy before he died) and St James

    • @kylevaughan4939
      @kylevaughan4939 6 лет назад +19

      Curtis Conway also incorrect. If you delve deeper, the meaning behind So Far Away shifted away from Brian’s grandfather and toward Jimmy. And they’ve stated multiple times that every song in Nightmare is in tribute to Jimmy

    • @AGhostInTheFog
      @AGhostInTheFog 6 лет назад +4

      Kyle Vaughan the significance of the song doesnt mean the song wasnt written about Syns grandfather. If the song was written before Jimmy's passing, you cant say it was written about him. In tribute is not the same as about. Natural Born Killer is a perfect example. You cant twist the meaning of the lyrics to Jimmys death.

      The Rev wrote much of the drums on this album, so even if he didn’t perform it on the recording, Mike honoured him but changing nothing. Which is fitting, and would’ve been easy for Mike, as he had been one of the Rev’s biggest influences. IMHO, this is still The Rev drumming, and we still get some of his vocals on this one too. Jimmy went out with one hell of a bang!

    Well this isn't actually a tribute song to the Rev since he did write the track for it. The tribute part comes at the end when we can see his drum set. He was also replaced by Mike Portnoy, Dream Theater's drummer temporarily until they hire a new one. One tribute song to The rev would be So Far Away or St. James.

    Mike Portnoy played the drums for this song and for all other songs of this album! Also, their original drummer (The Rev, the onde who died) was very talented and you should check out "So Far Away" because it's one of the most saddest songs of all time and it's a tribute to The Rev too. Their drummer right now is Brooks Wackerman.

      I think this is meant to be the complete opposite of Afterlife. Here's my theory but it may be so intentional 😊 Matt is being wheeled around instead of running, Zachy is dancing with his beautiful dance partner, swapped for the skeleton, Johnny is handing doves in Afterlife, this time he has a "Bird's eye view", Syn is handling the skull "very Shakespearean" this time he is cracking his skull on the window.

    • @oliviaarlene-nh5wc
      @oliviaarlene-nh5wc 4 года назад +3

      the video makes references to afterlife. hence the tarantula. afterlife is about someone who was in the verge of getting sent to hell but wants to right his wrongs. nightmare on the other hand, is about someone who was sent to hell for all their wrongs

    Avenged sevenfold was my very first concert. I had listened to them for years but I finally got the opportunity to go and it shortly after the Rev passed. I have never seen a crowd mourn together until that night. It was their nightmare release and it was beautiful. Matt is a dedicated musician. His songs all have meaning. The whole show blew me away. Hands down the most heart warming, tear jerking, life changing show I have ever been too. I'm a fan for life!

    the reason there were spiders crawling on that kit was because in the video for Afterlife, The Rev, their drummer who died prior to recording the final tracks of that album, had spiders crawling on his face. it was a really memorable scene for them because he was terrified of spiders, so they had his drum kit, torn down and put away, with spiders crawling on it. that was the metaphor behind that scene
