  • where can i buy zacky's fingerless gloves??? O.o

  • @hankat2011 just take a pair of black winter gloves from the dollar store, and cut them. simple.

  • 1:41 i see a "Bro we fuckin wrecked that shit" highfive starting up right here.

  • @VelocityLongboarding XD hahahh!!! ur so right!!!!

  • who cares if u wanna call them metal or rock or metalcore. The genre doesnt matter. to me, theyre just fucking amazing

  • A friend of mine got to meet A7X after a concert once, they were going out to eat and he ran into them. They talked a while and s question popped in his head, so he asked them if they like listen to their own music or what... They said they actually don't like their music that much, they usually listen to alot of other bands.

  • @NoahBaker98 im sure no band actually enjoys hearing their own music. They probably hear it more than anything else...

  • @NoahBaker98 damn,that's a nice question.

  • If it looks like a duck, and sounds like a duck, well... it's a fucking duck. if it looks like metal, and sounds like metal. then it's metal.

  • Yes!!

  • @NoAppend that's weird :P dre's a weird guy LOL

  • @NoAppend i didn't know dre learned piano? XD

  • @NoAppend imma huge fan of rap and yeah there are talented guys (fav wu tang clan) but i wish people had more talent before havin a major debut or watever, seems like u don't have to work hard nowadays to have ur big day now :/ though i'm not expectin anyone like jimmy page or eric clapton XD

  • @NoAppend well yeah he's the drummer for nirvana and the guitarist/vocalist for foo fighters, of course he's talented XD 

  • @NoAppend well yeah but still alt rock is prob the no.1 most popular rock genre and everybody in that genre sounds the same and so simple, i don't like it :P

  • @NoAppend but that's a pretty bad attitude for makin music :P

  • @NoAppend wait i want an example, i've never seen an alt guitarist rip it up XD

  • @NoAppend i meant the guitarists in alt rock bands in general cuz they don't even play solos XD

  • The melody version of The Wicked End harmony sounds cooler.

  • I like how they just look at eachother after every part. :D

  • Lol, how in the world are these lessons?

  • Jeez i remember getting this on the total guitar mag dvd like 5 years ago.

  • I just love the stagepicture they do... A lefthanded and a righthanded guitarist <3 They rock! One day I wish to play in a band where the other guitarist has to be left-handed! xD

  • I like how they look at each other everytime they finish a song . :PP

  • I ♥ A7X◦ °◦I♥ A7X •♠ SYNYSTER N ZACKY

  • i ♥ ohh me encantó :D

    lo mejor de lo mejor

    y vaiianse a la goma esos 50 reggetoneros ke le pusieron no me gusta :D

  • thanks for the lesson guys. I can play all those songs now! it's awesome!!

  • who else here would feel honored to share the same stage and playing guitar side by side with synyster gates?

  • syn without his gloves isnt the same

  • I use to listen to avenged sevenfold before I found much better music

  • @Hexagram777 good for you.......

  • honestly i like synyster gates way better lol

  • I think i just jizzed in my pants.

  • i love how this band has a lefty and a right handed guitarist. so like when they play in the same direction, the head of zacky's or syns guitar head wont be up in each uder's faces :P

  • 49 people probably dont like hearing good music hmm they probably need to jump off of a mountain a tall one too...

  • its like orgasm, but more exciting

  • syn and zacky are some of the best new rock guitarist out thier, and theyve always stuck to their style

  • Everyone stop complaining. If you don't like it piss off! I like this so I wanna watch it. And I think they are AMAZING at what they do!!! Zacky and Brian are the best. It's their own style. They can do it how they want. Thankyouuuup. (:

    BTW I love you Synyster Gates <3

  • Amazing....There Hero's..Syn Marry Me please we can rock together..xD

    my favourite band of all time..:)

  • @ ilshockll u should fucking die... Don't be a hater!! Zacky and Jimmy are both great.

  • For me they're so good and i really love their music.

    If you don't like them shut up and don't watch these vids.

    I DON'T GIVE A FUCK OF WHAT YOU THINK ;]

  • @ilshockll Fuck You

  • @Halocon they sux because they are not the greatest? make sense

  • Theyre not metal.they changed.YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS! you dont get it right? Oke maybe A7X isnt metal.allright.than go and listen to metal. if you post"Justin bieber isnt metal" under one of his vids, the people would say: wtf is wrong with you? A7X has only one style.and this is the A7X style. of course no album of them sounds the same like another, but they play what they want to. so go and listen to your "metal" and ill keep listening to people who play the music they want to./sry misstakes

  • @MultiSeba1994 what they if they are not metal what are they. They say they are not metal they play Metal Music(Metalcore) and some other songs other subgenres of metal. but I think they have an A7X style like Metallica have their own style.

  • @MultiSeba1994 Yeah they are kind of metal.. metalcore, what ever you want to call it..Metal is their style mostly

  • @MultiSeba1994 i love it how they look at each other at the same time at the very end of the video

  • @MultiSeba1994 How is A7X not metal? They may not scream as much/at all anymore but their riffs are heavier than some "metal" bands.

  • @MultiSeba1994 and their different albums keeps us interested as it changes and we keep getting gripped, a7x has its own genre :L the a7x genre

  • whats the first song they play

  • @snookipunch unholly confessions ...

  • i really like the way syn picks haha

  • @a7xneil he keeps it tight and quick lol

  • I don't understand why two guitars doing the same things...

  • @lucialittlehorses it's not the same thing, they're each playing different notes and it creates harmonies

  • @lucialittlehorses Aside from what guitarman said about harmonies. Also there are solos and additions like Pinch Harmonics, and divebombs, that you can't do while one is playing a chord. They harmonize and they back each other up.

  • @lucialittlehorses because they play in octave u fucking moron

  • i wish none of them would have died ive been to 8 a7x concerts they kick some serious ass

  • the wicked end harmony always sends chills down my spine :D

  • @ilshockll your a fucking faggot

  • @ilshockll wtf?

  • @ilshockll Fuck u, go die in a smoldering hole u piece of shit.

  • @aboxofturtles128 that one comment made me piss myself laughing and i dont know why

  • @ilshockll go die shithead.

  • @ilshockll I wish YOU would have died instead of The Rev.

  • is good

  • Love how they just look at each other after playing each segment like, "yeah, were bad-ass"

  • these guys really arent that good

    go watch the guys from protest the hero play metalcore

  • ugh......

  • its like a mirror :L

  • holy shit lol i love this

  • you guys rock

  • Oh my god... I'd rather learn guitar from Lil Wayne.

  • If u like a7x FRIEND ME!!!!

  • if only they wore the same clothes and had the same guitars it'd be a mirror image lol

  • They dont suck, infact, Syn Gates has been ranked as one of the worlds greatest guitarists ( I believe he was in the top 50) its just its a poor camera

  • This is soo amazing !

  • they both fucking suck

  • @ReTr093 hey ass hole syn is #4in the world id like to c u play better than him

  • @tribleify

    haha oh really?! you know million of people like miley cyrus so she must be the fucking best right?! just the fucking same with this faggot synyster gates.

  • @ReTr093 syn has more talent in his turds than u got in ur whole body

  • @tribleify dude, dont give this faggot the satisfaction of having a fight over the internet. hes just a hater, so he goes to videos and hates, thats all he does. so just chill, we know syn is a god, and this faggot eats donkey dick.

  • @tribleify hahaha, i'm sorry Retr093. It's true.

  • @ReTr093 If they suck so bad, than why do 959 people like this video?

  • They both suck at guitar, it's like watching a 14 year old play.

  • <3<3<3<3

  • lol i love the pause when the video ends, zacky and syn harmonizing their moves also XDD

  • I could listen to those burn it down arpeggios all day

  • AHH I WANT SYN'S HAT!!!!

  • I don't get why people take the time to watch things they don't like...then complain. All these people say they can't play when they clearly can. People whine because they're successful saying it's not metal to blah blah blah...they can't be able to play because they're commercial....yeah....makes sense to me.....they get paid to play music but, they don't know how.....right......I admit, the whole fashion thing they do isn't my bag but, i'm a guitarist/musician. I love PLAYERS.

  • Syn has been my idol since I was SEVEN. There if nothing Syn can't do. It sucks that they can't go on tour anymore do to the loss of Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan. Rock on A- motherfucking 7x. \m/

  • @22Josh00 theyre on uproar tour still they are playin wit Mike Portney 

  • @22Josh00 actually they are touring with portnoy

  • @22Josh00 you're obviously not a big enough fan to keep yourself updated.

  • @Brianx6661 BURN.

  • if you were to play this with a string quartet I bet it would sound lovely

  • I love that one is left handed and the other is right. It makes this look so cool haha.

  • @steakstix i no right its so beast

  • it is like playing in front of a mirror

  • i dunno i always thought zacky sucks but syn is sick

  • so hottt <3

  • guys.. synyster and zacky arent the best guitarists in the world.. lets face it there are a bunch of guitarists oout there who'd totally pwn em but they write good music and i enjoy listening to there harmonized solos.

    i think a7x are pretty awesome and there is no need for this bitchin over which is the best guitarist... everyone has different playing styles.

  • these are not realy lessons haha

  • i have never noticed that zacky is left handed... that awesome espacialy because syn's right handed.. THAT SO CUWL! :D

  • Pero si tiene un coletero en la guitarra para tapar las cuerdas , torpe

  • i´m going to enter in a talent contest next week and i really need a nice and easy solo to play. not to easy xD i´m not that bad xD

    can anyone make some suggestions for an electric guitar instrumental song? please!

    thank you!

  • @microcuts02 try buckethead, did welcome to bucketheadland last year on talent contest^^ has a nice solo,not that hard, but sounds cool

  • cliff of dover by eric johnson , it aint easy

  • AFTERLIFE!!

  • si supieran tocar la guitarra como metalica o led zeplin!

  • tu mama

  • Ooft Syn And Zacky On The Picture At The Beginning :)

    They Are So Awesome

  • is the "G" in "arpeggios" phonetic? or wud u have say it as u would say"GATES"?

  • "g" as in ... how you say the letter.

  • klkl thanks

  • 0:57 Bat country intro ? =o

  • lol XD no shit it says bat country intro

  • they nice to me

  • Learn to play by ear lol its so easy to play by ear just learn how to do it and dont worry about being able to see where their fingers are... who needs tabs?

  • staa shido0 (Y)

  • how are these lessons?

  • they slowed it all down so you can see what they're doing.. you have to have some kind of idea how to figure it out by watching and listening.. and if yo ucant do that you probably aren't ready for songs like this yet.

    Not being mean.. lol dont take it the wrong way or anything but thats what it is.

  • um, you can barely see the frets on the necks, you'd need to replay it again and again to see what they were actually playing, they couldn't even zoom in? It has nothing to do with my skill level, they just made a shitty lesson.

  • @midevil656 I can easily figure it out by watching this so obviously it is your skill level.

  • well you must have fucking laser eye sight and an extremely high quality video output, because on my PC I can barely see the fret markers.

    I've been playing over 5 years and a7x shit is easy, so don't insult my skill level. These asses are just to lazy to make a tab or even zoom in a camera on the guitar neck.

  • @midevil656 If you've been playing for "over 5 years" then you shouldn't need to use tabs...

  • does that make any sense? Why spend 30 minutes trying to figure out the notes, when you can just look it up? It has nothing to do with skill.

  • @midevil656 It also shouldn't take you 30 minutes to figure it out. You need to build your ear, if it's taking you that long. Besides, who would you trust more, your own ear, or someone elses?

  • You can see the general outline of where they are playing in the video.. I easily got the parts in under a few minutes.. so if you've been playing "over 5 years" then clearley you either dont practice enough, or you're too lazy to do anything for yourself and automatically say its too much work to do.

    Oh and you say a7x shit is easy, go play the afterlife solo, screams solo and bat countrys solo perfectly and post it here. Please.

  • Those are all solos, I was saying that their songs in general are very simple on guitar. I did not even bother to try to learn from these videos, because for one, I can use my time better.

    I know I probably could learn from these, but why bother when there are so many better methods of learning available?

  • @midevil656 just because its a solo doesnt mean it isnt part of the song.

    and you arent thinking in the long run. Yeah sure now it might be faster to look it up and shit but if you learn to play by ear, after practice it'll be alot faster than looking it up and learning the whole tab. To really grow as a guitarist you have to learn to listen to the music, know the guitar and know where the notes are.

  • grow as a guitarist? You mean like... down there? I'm already pretty big down there, but if not looking at tabs makes me even bigger, I'll do it man, just for you.

  • @midevil656 lame jokes at someone trying to help you out? Real cool buddy. You just realised what im saying makes sense and dropped it and you know it lol

  • I was agreeing with you, and it wasn't a joke...

  • sorry if i took it the wrong way then, just the way you said it seemed like you were making a joke or something.

  • @midevil656

    or learn a different genre like something as complicated as jazz or fusion. Or play prog rock

  • @CorruptionxXx lol, you make it sounds lie their songs are hard to play at all

  • @generation666 solos are hard, the songs them selves arent..

  • @CorruptionxXx not so much but i guess some people might think so. hard solos are like steve vai and the faceless solos

  • @generation666 you just made me lol thanks bro.

    Go record the solo for after life, with the sweeps 100% perfect and post it please.

  • @CorruptionxXx nah, i like to learn to play GOOD songs dood.

  • Comment removed

  • @CorruptionxXx I never said I was so great but neither are these two dumb fucks lol. and as for the dood thing. i dont know haw that makes it worse. how about you not talk shit without elaborating.

    Why am I watching this A7X video? because my friend likes them and told me to watch this piece of shit. I got 30 seconds into it and pushed pause. that's why.

  • @generation666 lol, just give me a good reason as to why they suck and I would let it go, all ive gotten from you is "they suck' or "theyre dumb fucks" and obviously you must suck too if you say what they play is easy, but you still arent good enough to play it?

    and if you dont like it big deal, dont bother commenting.

  • @CorruptionxXx why they suck? Cuz they cant harmonize worth a shit. they have horrible lead player whos playing is so incredibly sloppy and bland. thats why they suck

  • @generation666 If you can call Synyster Gates "sloppy and bland" Post a video of you playing guitar to back it up. If you have the guitar playing authority to say that he sucks, you must be an absolute god.

  • @TheEliteMonkey Who the fuck needs guitar playing authority to have an opinion? its clear that youre just another cliche 16-17 year old retarded a7x fan. i never said i was better. Im horrible at guitar. I play songs by like Brain Drill and Obscura. i have a lot of room for development. but in comparison to other guitarists, even some i know, both of them are horrible

  • @generation666 If he sucks so much, stop watching and commenting his video, you have your opinion, i have mine. You stated yours and thats enough, you ont have to argue with me. I personally like them, i think that Syn is a good guitarist and this is a great band in general.

  • @CorruptionxXx i did stop watching it lol, i watched the little that i did and ive only returned to the viewers comments since. and btw, i did state my opinion and i dont have to stop. Synyster Gates is not a good guitarist. hes mediocre at best. Theres my final opinion.

  • @generation666 i didnt tell you to stop stating your opinion, i said it has been stated and everyone knows it, although many dont agree with it.

  • @generation666 wow "dood" u are such a dumbfuck, you say their songs are easy, and you learn "good" songs like steve vai which is different, in all honesty synyster gates solos are harder than vai's. How the hell would you know about harmonizing if you cant even play or say its "sloppy and bland"? You are just another shit who cant acknowledge how good these guys are, u dont have to like them to know they are good you ignorant fuck. And i bet u just searched guitarists to get "steve vai"

  • @FerrariGallardo147 xD They're not good. I didn't have to search Vai to know Vai lol. I can name a million guitarist off of fucking memory. There is the great Joe Hayley of Psychroptic, Michael Keene of the Faceless, Ryan Knight (ex-Arsis), and Anton Svedin of Soreption, all of which are better than both of the girls in this band. As for his solos being harder than Vai's?? Not so much... at all lol. That's one ridiculous statement. Mostly 'cause Vai doesn't need daddy to write his solos for him.

  • @generation666 You wouldnt know whose solos are harder cuz u suck at guitar, as for naming guitarists, that doesnt make them good (neither those guitarists nor those bands are even recognized by the guitar and metal or rock world) and "daddy" is a classical player, he doesnt write any of his solos and has only collaborated in 2 songs of a7x, now why dont you just do like your guitar knowledge and fuck off

  • @FerrariGallardo147 You've never heard nor seen me play guitar, so you would know right?? As for those bands not being recognized, you couldn't be more wrong. Joe Hayley has done several "Betcha' Can't Play This" segments for Guitar World and as for the whole thing about collaboration.. how many times has Vai needed his dad to make his songs better?? Never. So why don't you make your like guitar knowledge and not exist (: Thank you.

  • @generation666 You said yourself that you're horrible at guitar, point made. Avenged Sevenfold is much more recognized, being featured often on ultimate guitar. And collaboration, I bet Vai's dad doesnt even play guitar and how could anyone even add to a shredding song, which has a much different structure than any Avenged song, if your dad was an amazing guitarist you'd definitely ask for his collaboration. So why dont you just shut the fuck up and stop arguing for a pointless cause

  • @generation666 It takes a real lowlife shit to bash on a band he doesnt like, I dont like a million bands but i dont go and watch their videos just to say shit about them

    Ps. That was very creative "So why don't you make your like guitar knowledge and not exist", next time you do that you should try to at least change something up from what I said

  • @FerrariGallardo147 xD Dumbfuck.. I was just showing you how I can make your shitty insult good by using damn near the same phrase. And I watched this video originally because some retarded cunt said they were great guitarists. I watched it. Commented and baited, waiting for some moronic 12 year old, such as yourself, to try to correct me. Bored with this argument. I'mma go be a shitty guitarist now. Maybe Synyster Gates could give me a lesson in that..

  • @generation666 Well i guess your not very good at making shitty insults good. And commenting and baiting for an argument clearly states that you have nothing to do besides troll like and ignorant fag. By the way you can go be a shitty guitarist like Synyster Gates while you get paid minimum wage and he's getting rained down by money and tight pussies. Now do me a favor and go get laid since you clearly havent been doing that anytime recently when trolling on music

  • @FerrariGallardo147

    lolol you shut him the fuck up son xD

  • @triforceguitarist you know it;)

  • @generation666 chill lol, syn's no marty friedman or alexi laiho but he's a damn good guitarist, he could do a lotta techniques most guitarists in our era can't do (ex: sweep picking)

  • @TheEliteMonkey It's the same authority you use when you go and see a shitty movie and it sucks. You don't have to be a director or even an actor to know it sucks, you just have to have a brain and listen, something many A7X fans lack..........

  • @Playsitlouder Its personal taste, you have to have a brain to accept others opinions something you lack faggot.

  • @Playsitlouder ha i've just realised ur the same faggot thats been on about 4 other a7x videos that i've been on today, just going round bashing the band lol, now that's sad that u have nothing better to do...

    i mean it's not even as if there posted on the same day as some of ur comments have been spread over 2 weeks!!

  • @CorruptionxXx plus syn says that he's not really a great teacher so this, i guess he thinks, is the best way for him to do it.

  • @midevil656 because youre being schooled :D

  • los amo

  • Is there a dvd of this I can buy ? if so what is it?

  • its from the uk guitar magazine "total guitar" issue 145 - february 2006

  • nice...very nice
