Avenged Sevenfold Live "Unholy Confessions"

[follicle5]

This song is 20 times better with singing than with screaming.

[wiiLuvCalifornia]

@follicle5 False

[Daan6661]

damn this is a really fucking good performence right here

[Guillermo8908]

Wow from about 1:05 to 1:09 they really drop the tempo a lot. More than in actual song

[matthew19921000]

i like this song.

[cacao825]

@Aleshekk you dumb fuck though I am a7x fan, but dont fucking diss metallica cause they are gods compared to a7x. Just dont even compare them cause it's not worth it

[thadaytrippa91]

@cacao825 i know everyone will hate on this but fuck it , i think avenged sevenfold is better than metallica

[JimmyBlade69]

@thadaytrippa91 Agreed

[scotchy1786]

@cacao825 saying someone is better is not dissing them. also you might want to learn the difference between subjective and objective observation, not everyone thinks exactly the same way as you.

[77bukansaya]

look the rev at the beggining . he throw his left stick and get a new one . ;D

[Aleshekk]

omg Shadow have a shirt with logo of MetallicA... mg, Metallica is fuckin´ bad opposed the A7X....wtf :D

[Nephilum69]

i wish he still screamed

[BlackTulps]

R.I.P Jimmy, a year past :(

[MrActionPotato]

@gocowboys58 yeah that beast on the drumsets name is "the rev" he died last year):

[gocowboys58]

look at that beast on drumset

[A7xivano626]

this was a fucking badass....jimmy is the fucking best fucking drummer ever

[tooxmuchxfun]

just thought i'd be the 666th comment lol i love A7X woo!!

[die4urgovernmentjk]

he doesnt scream anymore like wtf dont get me wrong i know it wasnt because of vocal surgery its because he doesnt want to but really man keep your bands old school shit old school

[MisfitAlex]

@die4urgovernmentjk Theyre amazing both ways in my opinion, theyd get old if they didnt change, they have so many fans becuase of the change, from singing and screaming. Yeah I miss it but theyd get old after a while. and without it, Alittle piece of heaven, critical acclaim, afterlife, etc would not have been made. And Jimmy wouldnt be loved and missed as much if he didnt make this beautiful music. Im happy they made the change.

[wtfimmike]

@mtlguitarist97 you got a problem with JOHNNY CHRIST!!!! haha

[basicoptimalmouse]

@jetboy0220 listen to the second solo in mr crowley by izzy and solo in one by metallica, it's called influence aiight.

As for ripping on a dead guy, that's pretty low.

Rip rev.

[skateforlife500]

freakin awesome

[xDrumsx4xLifex]

wtf was up with the end? -_-

[GUkraine]

When he doesnt scream in this song..... it goes down a couple chapters in my book....

[jamiel1612]

@GUkraine depends what yeah man if u want a scream go for 2002/ 2003 version :)

[CrawfordAJC]

@GUkraine M.shadows decided after waking the fallen that he wasn't going to scream anymore but he does scream a few parts of his songs live still

[MtlGuitarist97]

Lol at Johnny Christ. What a dumbass.

[die4urgovernmentjk]

@MtlGuitarist97 dude fuck you johnnys a great bassist

[MtlGuitaristMatt]

@die4urgovernmentjk I wasn't trying to sound like an asshole. I wasn't serious and I also didn't make fun of Johnny's bass skills.

[realserj]

m.shadows & a7x rules

[futrmarine011]

rip jimmy

[doenersosse]

Awesome I love the Breakdown at the beginning

[daltonsevenfold]

where was this.

[JeremyCKY]

Really? I like how he screams on the record opposed to the way he sings live. It's not that bad, it just makes the song seem less heavy.

[MrRedman]

Either way, he's gone back to screaming. I saw them at Sonisphere UK (their only uk performance this year) and his screams are so much better than Waking the Fallen.

[AwakeTheFall]

@JeremyCKY Well I agree but only in this performance have I seen him not scream in one of their screaming songs.. Like in Live in the LBC he screamed to Second Heartbeat and Unholy Confessions, sounds alot different than the album but he still was screaming, not singing like in this,

[MisfitAlex]

@JeremyCKY idk if you knew this, but he used to scream live, but he decided he wants to be more of a screamer. He still knows to scream and fully can, its the bands choice not to. I agree.

[thetomatoelement]

@JeremyCKY well considering he hasn't been able to scream for years since he tore his vocal chords. thus why the new shit isn't heavy and he doesn't scream.. hmm.. plus he sounds like a fucking jackass when he sicks. all whiny and cocky. they are such a terrible generic boring rockband now.long live sounding the seventh trumpet and waking the fallen.

[thisismy7thusername]

I like the tone of his voice, but technically, he's not the best. lol

[skittlezjrb]

M Shadows is one of the best rock singers atm, he keeps getting better and better each live performance he does.

[PizzaEatPizza]

some parts of his singing sound like papa roach in this lol A7X forever :D

[jbsthebest1]

Metal= hell to my ears. This guy can't even sing.

[PizzaEatPizza]

dude you're dumb dont even watch this crap if you dont like it. and dont say some1 that can sing better than any1 you've seen can't sing...

[msdeadinside]

dude, your dumb, seriously your saying that m, shadows is actually good?

you obviously have no ear for music, he just has a cool hard rock voice, he cant really sing that well.

[PizzaEatPizza]

dude, you're dumb, seriously your saying that m. shadows is actually bad? You obviously have no ear for music. He pwnz. GTFO.

[msdeadinside]

haha, no.

he is pretty damn horrible actually.

i dont know, i guess i just have higher expectations in "musicians"

[ahrims22]

nope..u just dont listen to metal..

[Synysterswrath]

@ahrims22 damn right dude

[nate2401]

Shit they are so awesome I hope I get to see them live soon

[lolhejxD]

zacky and johnny looks horrible

[34761]

I like how he's wearing a Metallica shirt \m/

[robarh]

the way he sings with that melodic shout is way more difficult than any screaming anyone has ever done. yea theres a skill to screaming but really only a few vocalists actually sound acceptable screaming. even fewer people can pull off this guys style. name drop free

[XXXSpartan118XXX]

Actually it isnt.

[robarh]

well then you go out there and be somebody, ms thang

[XXXSpartan118XXX]

and why dont u just shut the fuck up faggot.

[krystalbabe999]

man if i was 1 foot away from them i would pass out:D

[andykray6661]

daiumn the song is not full but it rocks!:)

[krystalbabe999]

i love matts voice i wish i could see them live:)

[6is6here6]

oh man, hearing him scream for the first time live sent chills down my spine.... O_o

he freakin rocks!

[dpma7x]

shadows never had any thing wrong with his vocal chords or anything like that. watch all excess the manager guy says it.

[DonnyDestruction]

Your right he doesn't but also when your screaming and singing in a tour losing your voice is common

[oxrjbizzle1984y]

yes shadows did have minor throat surgery, but he can still scream as seen in their concerts supporting the self titled album, he just chooses to scream only once in awhile! i wish he would scream though, i miss the waking the fallen days, thats their best album easily!

[wtkluver16]

watch the dvd he never had anything wrong with his throat he just chooses not to scream anymore which is a good thing screaming is a way for skinny emo pussies to act hardcore

[doubelpedal]

wow the rev roll Stick....

veryyy nice........

[braamlingproductions]

he's wearing a metallica shirt:P

[Vadsbopojkarna]

And Misfits ;)

[oxrjbizzle1984y]

misfits are the best band ever, a7x is up there though. i hope the next album will be heavier than the last 2!

[anusmister]

a7x 4 lyfe

[kevnarut]

he doesn't scream on tour in 2005 and 2006 but now he scream for some songs live

[24asif24k]

what happened?

why no screaming?

[ourensanoensuiza]

m.shadows had problems with an artery of the neck and since that he doesn't scream ( sorry my english is bad ^^ )

[GuitarHeroOsbourne]

1:10 Johnny looks like a zombie

[FreakUndead]

Hell yeah that would be sweet. A7X is one of the best live bands soad sucks live

[hydralisk3313]

@FreakUndead every band does..except a7x

[tacticalboi]

@FreakUndead and their guitarist a fucked up

[anderzali]

@FreakUndead I went to see soad live. FUCKING EPIC CRAZY SHIT!!! But I really want to go see A7X live its like my dream

[gregrocks66]

@FreakUndead soad rocks live

[Wrathofa7x]

god, who else agrees with me that these performances (this whole concert) would be one badass live consert DVD! i wish this was, i would've bought it so fast XD

[dingus90210]

I agree but I'm certainly not complaining too much, the live in the lbc dvd kicked some ass.

[TheTattooChef]

How old is this performance?

[galanoth619]

aroind 2005 2006

[zbeau789]

kirk hammet actually KNOWS how to play guitar. not saying syn cant play. but theres a difference in knowing how to play and being able to play.

[DX231]

WTF, ARE YOU SYN'S DAD??? didnt thinks so

[zbeau789]

that has no relevance. you sound stupid.

[dilharre]

to be fair, u are the one that sound stupid, they are playin different music, and both are very talented, alot more so than you, so give up.

[xchriscrossed]

I know what you're saying, and I can say with complete honesty that you're wrong. Yeah, Kirk knows how to play, he was taught by Joe Satriani himself. However, Syn went to MIT for about half a year, and that's a hard college to get into, unless you know how to compose and play music very well.

[stuff205]

No screams? What!!!!!

[Kerdex]

Shadows had recently gotten a surgery on his vocal chords before this concert. He didn't wanna do anymore screaming for a while which explains the lack of it in City of Evil and they self titles album.

[FragileStaticCircus]

He CAN still scream, he just chooses not to.

[Kerdex]

Can.. But I don't think he wants to fuck up his vocal chords again.. Check out their site/Wiki..

[Bowmen541]

err...wut de hell did johnny do 2 his hair?..wuts de style?..rock clown?:D

[bassitup40k]

in the words of Zacky V, you can't spell bass without ASS. Johnny is retarded

[Rockerr25]

dont get me wrong i like avenged sevenfold but metallica is or atleast was better with live performances

[MrRedman]

True. Well, For Avenged Sevenfold's live performances, i recommend this song either "Live in the LBC" or this song Live in san diego (watch?v=mFgYpEkfgR4&feature=r­elated)

[daysofthephoenix1223]

hetfield has always sucked live. in the early years he was always loaded. now, he sounds like crap bcuz he was always loaded, and he used to smoke. just like axl rose, u smoke, u can't sing.

[nflfreak13]

wow i can't people compare the lead guitarist of A7X to METALLICA. Metallica kicks his ass!

[Flykten92]

lol? you mustn't have watched much a7x :P

[nflfreak13]

i have watched plenty of it man. metallica kicks his ass, ask anyone who is not a complete faggot and knows what they are talking about.

[enslavedsanity1]

wow dude kirk hammet sucks compared to synyster your effin high

[daysofthephoenix1223]

... syn is great, but, he has a ways to go to reach the legendary status of hammett. kirk plays thrash better (cuz a7x doesn't play it), but syn is more versatile.

[vengeancefan7]

are you kidding me, syn kicks ass

[WatashiWaMaikeruSan]

WTF DOOD? kirk just plays pentatonic's and goes up/down on the wah wah!????

N00B syn is a lot better. HE CREATED HIS OWN SCALE!! im not saying kirk is crap..but syn owns his arse.

[jellojuicer]

i like both

[YuvalDrumBoy]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL ARE U FUCKING SERIOUS?!!! KIRK KICKS HIS ASS!!!it not tat i dont like syn but kirk is much better!!!

[xfreakx91]

very good song...i luv zacky style

[fbhfeaead]

m.shadows did not lose his screaming power he jut wanted 2 do the music that was what they liked

[jth723]

they would be good live if shadows actually screamed. I've seen some god awful videos of them though.

[nascarbaby9]

He doesn't feel like screaming as much any more plus he use to pop a blood vessel or something a lot because of all the screaming. They actually removed part of a vessel because of it popped almost every show. Thats what I heard.

[possessedchild]

yeah maybe he should have learned how to sing first

[megadudeoftheyear]

metal doesn't necessarily need good voices but thats just compared to all those shiity pop singers and this guy has an awesome voice anyway!

[IamSARAhearMYgrr]

yeah screaming is incredibly damaging to the vocal cords for any person who's ever been in any kind of vocal music profession. M. Shadows and the band prefer doing the kind of music they do now anyways. Plus, if any of you ever paid attention to interviews and such, you would see that they only started with screamo because they had connections and now that they are more popular they can do whatever it is they want.. which is exactly what they did on the last album!

[NuculurSplosion]

I think it is funny that in the write up about this video she calls is the "All Excess" DVD not the all ACCESS DVD indicating that it is entirely unnecessary.

[Abiondo83]

the dvd was entitled "all excess"

[NuculurSplosion]

Oh okay

[Abiondo83]

de nada

[clearsugarfree]

nice hair johny christ!! XD

[AvengedKSevenfold]

where is the end?

[synyster4now]

it was fast in beginning but only because they wanted to do that

[SynysterVengeance8]

It seems like they are playing this song too fast, am I right?

[roberatila11]

whtas this....!!!

[PiOA7X]

that is shit!!! shadow does not scream fuck you!!!!

[ShadowsxEvil]

damn he didnt scream =/ still pretty good. just doesnt sound right without the screaming though.

[mxcftw]

I heard alot of feminine screeches there in the beginning...

[marichav16]

Who cares what anyone of the assholes that dont like A7X say...there is a reason behind what they do so for you bastards who don't like it...DONT WATCH THERE EFFIN VIDEOS!!!! DUHH!!! I think everything about them AND there music is AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[RockerofRock182]

He chooses not to scream!I HATE People who are THINK they know A7X ..LEARN WHAT REALLY HAPPENED!!! He CHOOSES not to scream, In fact, Ever since his surgery Shadows says his screams might be better than before.

[EyeOfTheStorm123]

how fucking fast was that xD ( intro )

a7x ftw ! dudes realy FUCK HATERS

they pwn live nothing else

end off !

[xsilviadrifterx]

yeah after he fucked his vocal chords no screaming is fuckin lame

[Moodvayne]

No screaming = fail

[aJazzcat]

ya i miss the old screaming too =(

[PeterObi]

HE still can alittle bit check out uh Second heartbeat live at lbc

[aJazzcat]

no i mean like, his scream then was really BEAST but now it's different. kinda sounds thinner i guess

[ysera77]

he trashed his voice. its finally coming back now. thats why he didn't scream like at all in city of evil or this show.

[awesomelog]

he doesnt scream cause he said he doesnt want to, not that he cant cause he can, ive seen him do screaming after hs operation

[gotnotingtotalkabout]

They are amazing. They sound better live than recorded

[blablamouth3]

lol the lead singer sort of looks like eminem in this vid

[MetalMonster95]

i can sorta see that

[TomLeggett123]

But more buff =]

eminem hasn't been doing his press ups!! lol

[A7xNoOnesHome]

yeah like eminem on streroids .. lol

[metallicafan02]

ahh im going to see these guys live in about an hour =D

[AshleeeeX021]

wow ur soo lucky i wish i could go to one of their concerts..i love themm so muchhh!

[metallicafan02]

lol actually it wasn't that great cuz they didn't play =/ i was pissed. apparently their singer got "sick" so i only heard papa roach buckcherry and saving abel. but eh i was front row so i was happy enough lol

[razorbeattle]

M. Shadow's sickness was "food poisoning" and it hospitalized him.....dick

[Zephyr540]

dont have to be an asswhole about it im sure ud be pissed if u bought front row for a7x (which is hard to get) and they end up not playing

[metallicafan02]

dick? explain to me how i was being a dick. i was bummed cuz i didn't get to see avenged sevenfold play.. therefore im a dick? awesome dude.

[xchriscrossed]

Alright, I'm a pretty hardcore A7X fan, but I haven't seen an instance of them being arrogant. I'm not saying that they haven't been, but can someone please point out a specific event, at which they were arrogant?

[copestrait]

saw them a couple days ago. amazing. Buckcherry headlined and every body left after a7x was done. haha i bet buckcherry felt dumb.

[bloodyfuckinrocgod]

haha I went to that tour. that's the same shit that happened when I went. everyone went to buy Avenged merch while buckcherry was playing

[ZachJG2221]

Omg hes wearing a metallica shirt. Thats fucking awsome. Lol not that they arent....

[BFMVA7X187]

I just saw them yesterdayyyy

it was eeemazing!

[arrowmarcher]

i see them tomarrow!!!!!! Friday the 13th

[Aboodikillakali]

man i luv syn. but the only prob is tht he doesnt move alot on stage

[cheddarhobbit6]

this song has the best riffs of all time

[berttzilla]

they are a bunch of arrogant bastards...make great music tho.

wish vocals were better

[dannyboy10721]

In the CIty of Evil tour they were more arrogant than the Avenged Sevenfold tour. I think the new found success got to their heads. But if you've seen videos from before then, they weren't arrogant.

[berttzilla]

ok gotcha. i saw them accept an award at the MTV thing and they were the biggest d-bags ever. but i like their music. great musicians but dicks lol

[otaijam01]

metallica is the best dude ,,,,fuck off for those sayin df sux

[mopheadzac]

i think its great how much the whole band has improved, they went from sick in this vid, to amazing in the LBC one

[oXsnapeOx]

arggggg i love themm soo muchhh<333

[westerbliven]

Hell yea Matt is wearing a Metallica shirt :)

[scottsyn]

He wear's Metallica shirt's at alot of show's they do.

[animelover15431]

they do just own stage presence.

just beastly. lol.

i love them.

[BermyRaji]

lol, Someone had the nerve to compare dragonforce to these guyz. Dragonforce sucks live.

[bradnightmare]

dragonforce sucks anyway, herman li speeds up his riffs on audacity :L

[LPJeetkunedo]

Cuz they're drunk. They actually have talent, but it's obscured by Heinekens.

[1977carlitos]

i really miss Shadows' screaming...good times that.

[Triushiz]

Agree, i luv the OLD a7x Darkness surrounding or lips of deceit

[NSRIP3]

mt...i think he uses shecters

[jojomayersko]

synyster and zacky have their own custom guitars. schecter is just the company that makes them

[CptBulldog]

The do sell Syn's replica tho.

[jojomayersko]

they sell zacky's too, but their both really expensive

[synga7x]

Hey guys...you can order both from shecter guitars itself.. there is the standard and the custom same as they got =)

peacee ( I ordered the custom already coming soon *-* )

[ukilledit68]

u can get the standard for like 400 it looks just like it i dont know how it sounds tho but who wants to play another guys guitar anyway

[pyVengeance]

they are both sponsored by shecters

[jared9691]

he doesnt scream anymore coz he had an operation on his voice box somtimes screaming fuks up ur voice
