Did anyone else notice how little The Rev's drumset used to be and he was still drumming like a GOD...RIP Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan gone but never forgotten A7X foREVer
you know i really like all of a7x work since sounding the seventh trumpet to their self title album and i mean they are really good musicians that evolve greatly and changed the way music is scene they love all genres of music thats why they are so good
god damn i love this band! i love how they use energy onstage like how mat is running back and forth across the stage in the beginning... best band ever!
in 1820 a man named fredrick osloft one day he was working in his lab until a ghost came by and killed him the next morning fredrick was nowhere to be seen 100 years later two boys went in the lab as a dare the boys where never seen again where aparently murdered now that u have read this comment tonight when u go to sleep the two boys and fredrick will come and murder you but you can stop this by posting this comment on 5 other videos by midnight
looking at them now and how they we're in the past....like when they used to be one of those underground bands and now they are one of the biggest mainstream bands today!!!!!!! i've been an a7x fan since they came out with STST...and its so cool when they came out with City of Evil and Bat Country took over the radio. i love this band A7X for live
i wish a7x would play more music off of STST and Waking The Fallen..I love'm regardless but their old music brings out a different type of energy in them..regardless A7X FOR LIFE!!!!
What their old stuff does not "own" their new stuff. It's Avenged Sevenfold they were amazing when they made Sounding the Seventh and Waking the Fallen, they were amazing when they made City of Evil, Avenged Sevenfold (self titled), and Diamonds in the Rough; and they'll still be amazing with whatever comes out in the hopefully near future.
@naughtykoolaid55 if you're talking about the verses, the main vocal part is not screaming. Same thing with the first chorus, the main vocal is singing. duh
I remember these days :) OMGZOR look at the revs hair xD in fact.. look at all their hair.. they look so different compared to now :) i love this song!
Alright this is why I think he really changed styles, I think it was a combo of things. 1 you can obviously hear his screaming voice going down the drain on some of the other screaming vids, and he als decided to change when he changed to Warner Brothers, and I personally talked to Matt and he said he really would like to scream again if his voice didnt get fucked up when he did it. On the Dvd, I think the producer was just simply covering for them when he said that they cant scream that its BS
the look soo young and adorable!!and also when matt could scream b4 he got his surgery...and in this warped tour i remebered that he hit zacky in the head by mistake and stated bleeding all over the place and he said that the blood was fake
the rev is like rediculously more skilled now than he was back then and he wasnt sponsered back then.....look at how skinny shadows is and he doesnt have his tatoos yet lol
ok i need to ask if anybody might know. WUT KIND OF GUITARS ARE ZACKY ANS SYN USING? Zackys loks like a bootleg les paul and i dont even kno what syns guitar looks like
you don't need 2 bass drums...he used a double bass PEDAL, most smaller bands do, it's quite hard to tune 2 bass drums to the EXACT same pitch, plus the pedal is a lot cheaper, and much easier to haul and set up
Maybe you should watch the afterlife video. And if you listen to the studio version of this song, youll notice that hes doing 16th notes on the double bass and doing closing his hi hat on hits at the same same. Only way to do that really is with doing doubles on the right foot (with the triple bass) and closing the hi hat with your left foot
no it isnt i can do that. you play sixteenths on the 2 drums then when your right foot is on 1 you move your left foot on 2 also and do that for 2 3 and 4try it sometime
No its probably tuned. And he uses all three. Its just somewhat rare to use all three at once. Most triple bass drummers do almost everything on the right pedal (which does hits on the toe and heel motion) and only use the left pedal when they're doing a lot of stuff on the left side of the kit
Ill explain again. There are only two pedals so to speak. The left pedal controls just the left bass drum. The right one will kick the center drum when pressed with the toe, and the right drum when pressed with the heel. Though triple basses are usually only applied to 2 bass drums (one beater on the left drum and 2 on the right), and the third drum really is probably for show, he still has three pedals so to speak
wow i saw them in this tour and they were great, i personally think this is their good days, now mshadows cant scream, so they have to sound more like pop
fuck i can barley here revs screaming
