Avenged Sevenfold-Unholy Confessions Live (Rare)-2003-Real Footage

[jb5bluesfan]

That crowd didnt know it but they were so lucky..

[TheSuperdesiree]

every one is standing like omg what is this x d

[A7xSandro]

2003 video quality... LOL

[justinbraziel]

M. Shadows.. What a boss

[SenaZumrutcu]

Fighting in me was a WHORREEE hahahaha

[HappoApina]

Haha The Rev only had 2 tomtoms back then:D

[DeathbatFoREVer495]

Love their old stuff-- I love their new stuff too(Tonight the World dies is one of my all-time FAVORITES). I'm a Sevenfold diehard- I love whatever they put forth. I'd like to add for those who are a bit confused about M's screaming, he didn't quit screaming because he couldn't--he quite cause he didn't want to. A7X foREVer!!

[danthetinman916]

@DeathbatFoREVer495 thats half truth he didn't so much quit as cut back because of throat surgery to remove a blood clot from improperly screaming to much though when he does personally i think the scream sounds better now

[084359121]

Avenged Sevenfold is the reason of my life.... and the screaming of 2:23 is the reason of my existence

[dbzgtzero]

I'd kill to be there.. those people need to die. by me.. So I could be there.. o.O

[xpanik17x]

fuck yeah back when only few people knew about them those were the days fuck them now

[CARRiiEUP]

Young Avenged Sevenfold = Best Avenged Sevenfold.

[SuperPandaWarrior]

@CARRiiEUP some people love young A7X, some people love new A7X, true fans love both, and will continue to love them

[CARRiiEUP]

@SuperPandaWarrior I like A7x young and new but my favorite part is when they've been with The Rev. :)

[jkjgiants26]

synyster looks like Bam Margera

[ILovePitbulls49]

@jkjgiants26 You know what's funny about that though?

I was watching Viva La Bam (Bam's TV show) and I swear I saw an A7X poster.

A lot of the audio clips they play on the show also sounds like Avenged stuff.

[11pairsofpants]

Dose

[11pairsofpants]

Rare on YouTube

[DeathDealersGaming]

@drummerboysquires this song is on the waking the fallen album

[1983bfmv]

I wish I was there! I would be the only one on the crowd jumping around!

[thegodthathatesall]

lol zacky's stuff up in the intro

[comppyboy98]

i swear this is a fucking school

[MyMRpapa]

thumbs up for M.Shadow's screamo!!!

[J1661Z]

Holy shit.

[Kendrick1010]

why does M. Shadows always leave out the line "restraints are useless here" in all of Avenged Sevenfold's live performances of this song?

[avocado101592]

@Kendrick1010 because he uses it to catch his breath. You try screaming all that straight through in one breath. I've tried, and it ain't easy.

[jamesdallimore]

@Kendrick1010 he runs out of breath, try it and yull know

[aspasiz]

Shadows kicks ass here.

[SuperStevo777]

there still bad ass back n the day

[FromtheInception]

This is cool. But after hearing Unholy Confessions professionally done.. I almost cant listen to this.

[BrandonJamesH]

I wish Jimmy remained looking like this through to his last days. It just adds to his already crazy character.

[Tyler22888]

take that crowd of people times it by 1000 then add a mosh pit then u have avenged sevenfold today

[slyruler999]

is it just me or is zacky's guitar way louder than syn's?

[ShyteKreek46]

Mic on a cable... Old School style, bitches!!!!!

[wrxsnowman]

Lol Synyster and no tatts! lol...crazy seeing his bare arms! lol...Soon after he realized is uber leetness so he went and got tatted up to to his beastly image!

[22hoyboy]

R.I.P REV U ARE THE MAN

[xPePoOy]

ooooooooooh I LOVE THEM SO MUCH !!

[TheEltors]

m shadow voice is like without a mic

[sochioranmyaku]

Great song by a shitty band

[lizasaraus27]

if they only knew what was right in front of them...one of the most epic songs and bands ever.

[a7x4eva1000]

i wish i had been there

[glasgowgrin1]

wow dude. rev kit looks so... small..

[dranorpker69]

why the hell isnt any1 in the crowd rocking out??? this is amazing O_O

[GovanJazz]

@dranorpker69 Cause they weren't famous yet... People is all about show business

[thewhitegirlblues]

@dranorpker69 They wern't famous yet so nobody gave shit. That sucks because famous or not I would have been rockin' out. They are all wankers.

[rocklobstahh]

@dranorpker69 antidepressants

[gtaisawesome87]

@dranorpker69 this was before the song came out....

[DesignerPedro]

Zacky head = PUDIM

[MasonBangsDrums]

Rev had such a small drum kit...Ahhh

[shane809887]

Shadows could scream and sing so much better when he was younger. He still sings and screams like a beast today but he just sounds better here then he does now.

[ash2293]

LOL shadows left arm with no tats

[eSOhBe]

I agree with iaxodus. Stop complaining about the crowd. Many probably didn't even know what the song was.

Anyway this is fucking awesome, seeing them in their early days. It's amazing to see how much they improved live now.

[Elegost3000]

holy shit they look soooooo different...damn look at syns haircut

[Kickass10114]

i see dead people...

[eNVy103195]

@Kickass10114 too soon xDD

[THEDEATHLUVSME]

i love how the crowd is just standin there while one of the best bands of all time r playin. talk about dead crowd

[LPismad]

Y IS THERE NO PIT!!!!!!!!

[kenncriss]

AWWWWWWWWW THEY WERE BABIES!!!! I LOVE A7X THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAV!!! i cannot get tired of it!!!!!!! Synyster looks sooo funnt like thiss!!! hes still sexy nevertheless, Johnny's hair is badass, i love how his bangs his bass... These were Zackys glorious days, eveyone loved Zacky lol!!! Shadows will always be the same.. I LOVE THEM!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!...

[alexxpck]

This is cool. :o I just hate it when people say they aren't as good anymore. xD

[ThexxA7X88Xx]

4 people apparently suck dick

[iisoboss]

Dull crowd... They must be deaf

[stokecityyouth]

His Vocals are out of tune left right and centre... Sorry, it had to be said. However his screams are like 5X better in this.

[eriksports]

@stokecityyouth M's vocals have progressively gotten better each year since a7x formed as band. He is an excellent singer now.

[stokecityyouth]

@eriksports I know that, I've listened to them from the beginning until now...

[eriksports]

@stokecityyouth good for you

[stokecityyouth]

@eriksports Thanks.

[aranrogers12]

His scream is amazing.

[iPROFITDON]

Shame his voice is nothing like this anymore

[allthatremains2009]

its weird to see jimmy playing a 4 piece kit.lol

[adammccormick95]

@allthatremains2009 Seize The Day music video.

[SomeCrazyBearRaper]

2:31 fat bald guy headbanging.

[a7xfan66]

3:33 retards!! your looking the wrong way >.< fuck, that pisses me off. I havnt seem a7x once, but theyve been my favorite band for 7 years. Im seeing them in October, but i would much rather been to their earlier shows.. People who go and just stand there...ugh it pisses me off soo much. You guys dont deserve to see such perfection if your not going to enjoy it .___.

[NineDaysTil]

@a7xfan66 back in 2003 when this was recorded, a7x wasn't nearly as big or well known. And they were far from perfection. They sounded amazing nonetheless

[nugent321]

is that JC?

[petenmoe]

@nugent321 Yes, he joined the band in '03, so he's just starting out in this video.

[pwny999]

this is one of the best versions of this song i've seen. Why don't they perform the song like this anymore? This matches, if not surpasses, the studio version :)

[inCYDable]

@pwny999 his screams arent as strong now

[lotriguitarist]

what the fuck... is the crowd dead ??

oooh, the song was new at the time, that's why nobody knew it!

damn, the good old a7x times...

but i love their new songs too xD

\m/

[madmike078]

its pretty cool to see how much they changed

[betabersker]

does anyone else rember when their tickets were $11.00. but still i would go see them for even a thousand dollars.

A7x fo[REV]er

[SlimAyDee]

Soon to be, anyway.

[SlimAyDee]

If only that audience knew who they were listening to... the greatest band of all time...

[cougarfingers7]

nice video. its pretty rare to hear matt scream like that live. he was freakin awesome at it

[FictionalRealityA7x]

The crowd totally sucks they're sooo dead!! If only they knew how huge A7x would become. :/

[jesushasan8pack]

God damnit, who the fuck else was on this bill that had such shitty fans?

[iaxodus]

You idiots need to realize that this probably from before this song actually came out on record. That's why noone knows it. This footage is from 2003. The album was released in August 2003. Seems pretty logical to me.

[MrDonniebrasco1983]

@iaxodus in Italy we use to mosh even if we don't know a song and it's the first time we hear it...

[Bl0wn1]

@iaxodus i wouldnt care if ive never heard the song in my life,,, THATS AVENGED SEVENFOLD!! they could play The fucking beatles and id still be pumped AF lol

[chief2861]

@iaxodus i thought this alburm came out last year

[drummerboysquires]

@chief2861 oh my god... this was their first breakthrough album, nightmare came out last year. this song isnt even on that album.

[TheBIGTLIVE]

@chief2861 they probably been working on it for a long time

[DrummingNonStop]

Wish they still had that stage presence...

[akali54]

....they record it from telephone

?..

[MrSilver9692]

Sucha sick snare tone

[maricopa08]

omg.. and actual RARE video. im tired of seeing all this "RARE" shit and nothing is every rare. KUDOS.

RIP JIMMY WE LOVE YOU

A7X foREVer

[nikkyfree213]

Those people are just stunned by the badass-ness from this song

[davelynzchris]

These ppl fuckin' suck. They sound awesome even if it is fuzzy. These fuckin' kids have no idea what they're listening to.

[NoelyonZ93]

R.I.P. jimmy 

[RockItAllTheWay]

Woah if I head banged like Syn, Zacky, and Johnny I would totally be on my ass!

[rampagetapout]

the first time in history where people didnt know the lyrics to this song

[guitarboysteel]

matt actually screamed the lyrics

[TheMETALBEAST45]

that crowd fuckin sucks dude i would be fuckin jumpin around an startin mosh pits

[DugBullet]

Woah, shadows voice, its before it went even more amazing :D

[xyulikxmadikx]

@eilers if u look closely between 0:40 and 0:43 there actually head banging so somebody did bob there head lol xD

[31CanadianEH]

is this like the video shoot for the music video? cause i think thats why the crowd sucks

[macccyP]

2:33 2:36 Two man circle pit or are they just walking through?

[private1456higa]

Im just glad they didnt retire after performing in front of such a gay crowd

[private1456higa]

wow shadow's left arm was clean back then :D

[JAB0NK0]

so rare i have to look on youtube :o

[YOUBOOBER12]

2: 56 asscrack

[MrMrJasura]

@YOUBOOBER12 Lmfao nice observation

[BermyRaji]

3 of the idiots from that show logged in and pressed dislike! Jerks

[msdyrdek7]

i wanna slap everyone. but i remember when Matt swung the mic and hit poop Zack right in the head.

[crossingshinepark]

im confuzed o.o



[Itachifan186]

@xXWuZzAt11Xx It's not like in 2003 everyone was like, "hey the revs gonna die in 6 year so lets go see a7x before he goes" In your little world it might happen that way, but in reality it doesn't. For all I know my best friend who I haven't talked to in 3 years could die tomorrow.

[LolaLikesPandas]

great crowd...

OMFG IF I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THE REV LIVE BEFORE HE DIED I WOULD GO FUCKING NUTS. AVENGED DESERVE A BETTER CROWD. THIS WAS A GREAT SET ;PQW93 Y[9ZXHU1NMP

[RazorWristsLikeThizz]

FXCK THOSE PPL!. If i were in that crowd, i'd b fxCkken going LIVE!. EspeCially sinCe M. Shadows was sCreaming!!. Nothing turns me on like a sexXxy band, playing a sexXxy song!!. :DD

[Blarg1205]

shit gets real in those pits, nothing like a 2 man pit to get the crowd going

[gameron55]

The sad, horrible, and slightly painful truth... As to your hero singer screams inhale...:'(

[HaloChaos]

dead crowd is dead

[ycats1229]

is zacky like left hand or something cuz his guitar is on the other side

[Username14844]

@ycats1229 yea Zacky is a lefty

[zeppguitarded]

@ycats1229 can't tell if trolling or just really stupid...

[xA7XBLINK182x]

120p.... weve finally met

[Spike6176]

This is AWESOME! :D But the crowd sucks! :/

[MrKILLINGLUCIFER]

Yano what?

What's with that fucking crowd man!

i'm sure if i seen MATT, IDK ABOUT YOU, BUT I'D FUCKING SCREAM THE FUCK OUT!

They're deader than my nan

[ycats1229]

matt was super sexy back then he can still sceam its just that he screams lower but i like the way he yusta scream tho like now the scream is all srachy but back then it was purfect to me

[GodHatesUsA7X]

what the fuck, how can they not rock out to this??? are you sure those people are a7x fans?? if i were there i would have fucked shit up

[TheHujius]

son perfectos y kien diga q no  pzz q se xingue!!!

[fuckyeah009]

It's a shame that this is one of the best performances of this song they've done live, and the crowd is one of the worst crowds of all time.

[kenncriss]

@fuckyeah009 I know, they were dead!!!! shame shame!!

[AshleyB797]

@fuckyeah009 Dude i so agree

[drummerboysquires]

@fuckyeah009 the crowds not dead... THATS THE PROBLEM!

[XxXxJUSTJACKxXxX]

syn is in the band, but he is using his parker flt guitar instead of the avenged, its hard to tell with the video quality being so bad

[inCYDable]

@XxXxJUSTJACKxXxX he didnt get his custom until 2005

[XxXxJUSTJACKxXxX]

@inCYDable I know he didn't get his custom until '05, I'm just saying he is using his Parker Fly guitar.

[inCYDable]

@XxXxJUSTJACKxXxX well you seemed like you were unsure about the parker fly so i was just saying

[a7xrevsynshadow]

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WIT THIS FUCKIN CROWD

[UNDEAD6767]

Everyone needs to go back and review "all access" because all of you need to get your facts straight, a lot of the comments on this video and other videos have incorrect info. Many people say they are big fans but they don't even know simple things like who was in the band. Please, I'm beginning to get angry about this.

[MrPracticeRoom]

2003... back when this riff was original. Hell, the rest of the song is still original, and fucking awesome.

[fuckyeah009]

@MrPracticeRoom Actually I think the riff sounds a lot like the riff from the song Electric Eye by Judas Priest.

[qu7aker]

@fuckyeah009 actually lol im not saying they ripped it off. i mean shit its a cool melody but listen to spirit crusher by death and after the first chorus this riff/melody/harmony kicks in.

[MrPracticeRoom]

@fuckyeah009 They're in different keys, they have a completely different pattern... the only thing that's similar about them is that they're in a minor key, but so is every other metal song.

[fuckyeah009]

@MrPracticeRoom They still sound similar.

[igoooralves]

3 people like lady gaga

[Albig2010]

He is so young here. I like the more *mature* Shadows. His voice is more refined, and he is more experienced at stage performing. Thumbs up if you agree! BTW the old and the new A7X kicks ass!! \m/

[Swissjar549]

CAN someone please tell me whether Matt uses inhale or exhale please!

[bluesniperdjg]

@Swissjar549 Exhale XD

[Swissjar549]

@bluesniperdjg thanks but I've wondered if he uses exhale than how can he make it so high pitched

[bluesniperdjg]

@Swissjar549 Thats just how we wants to scream, he can make it high pitched like in this song or a little lower like in the song "Im not ready to die" or "god hates us".

[Swissjar549]

@bluesniperdjg I know I love A7x

[a7xrocksbutt]

syn looks so much like bam margera

[xMaYHeM7]

@a7xrocksbutt Bam magera looks like Syn you mean? ;)

[A7Xrockerchick18]

wait was this concert one of their first concerts?

[dmaldonado6177]

I'm actually glad to see them play in front of such a dead crowd.

We can see how far theyve come, from a hundred(?) brain dead cunts back then to thousands of hardcore fans losing their shit just to see them walk on stage. Congrats guys and may Jimmy RIP

[OmgGuitarNoobcake]

@dmaldonado6177 Haha yeah man.

[deathbat1228]

i wonder if this was back when syns name was still brian

[KCMGuitarVideos]

@deathbat1228 noo, i have this album, it says on the inside cover, guitar- Synyster Gates, but on the warmness on the soul single released in 2001 it was spelled Synyster Gaytes lol, it was his nickname in highschool, i dont think he was ever really called "Brian Haner"... wow im a nerd for knowing all that

[deathbat1228]

@KCMGuitarVideos haha dont feel like a nerd its cool i kinda knew that he had that nickname in highschool because i saw a video with matt and how they all get their nicknames and that syn and the rev had theirs from shcool

[KCMGuitarVideos]

@deathbat1228 yeah, and the rest created theirs as their stage names

[inCYDable]

@KCMGuitarVideos syn wasnt with them when warmness on the soul came out he played with them after sounding the seventh trumpet

[KCMGuitarVideos]

@inCYDable ik, but thats what it said on wikipedia, its wrong thoughhh

[chrisr7]

@inCYDable Go watch Avenged Sevenfold All Axcess . Syn was with them from the beginning

[inCYDable]

@chrisr7 he was friends with them from the beggining but if you actuslly knew anything matt says he heard sounding the seventh trumpet and thought it was very creative so he decided he would play with them

[halomaster2134]

@chrisr7 no the recorded some stuff the syn came in and re-recorded to end the rapture

[urworstnightmare22]

@chrisr7 yeah when the band was very first created syn was still in GIT. but he came in very very soon after

Just be glad the crowds are no longer like this. Plus whats sad is for opening bands people dont really rock the fuck out. I don't know if they think "if their not big they arent good" or if they are just focusing to see if they are any good.
