WOW. you guys need to watch All Excess, cause in it they say that Shadows never hurt his throat at all and never got surgery. its just a rumor that people keep feuling on youtube. he can still scream, he just has better technique. it makes much more sense if you know how to scream
i thought he got surgery after warped tour cause he was popping blood vessels everyday (he got it removed cause the doctor said if he kept it he wouldnt be able to talk in 5 years, it was in an interview i cant remember which one but then he took singing lessons to get a new technique as you mentioned.
nah all that stuff is just youtube rumor bullshit. he never got surgery, never popped any blood vessels. he has a singing teacher...thats pretty much it. All Excess tells it all
@Scotthew21 no actually all excess says he can scream now but he always wanted to sing that doesnt mean that he didnt end up having surgery though its just that didnt effect him nto screaming anymore
you need to watch all excess again, it never said he got surgery it says that the rumors that he cant scream anymore are bullshit, he did get surgery, but its not why he sings now.
@suckafartfrommyass they are way more talented now at every single instrument and the studi vocals are way better just not matt shadows live screaming
he can still scream like that but it just doesnt sound like that because someone taught him to scream some pro screamer dude? but he doenst just like scream any more if u iknow what i mean
i love his voice in waking the fallen album..but i love his voice in "avenged sevenfold" album too..damn dude, A7X still the great band....big applause for them...
damn, a7x at its best... i still love this band, but they need to come back to this... Avenged Sevenfold *album* was good, but this is so much better... waking the fallen, ftw
Shadows wont come back to this because he dont wanna damage his throat again he burst a blood vessel in his throu and it cudda killed him durin surgery and stopped him speakin forever if it wasnt a sucesful surgery so he dont wnah go bak, but the rest have all agreed to move on, n i must say I think the best of avenged is waking/city half an half both fantastic
Damn old vid, old song but great song. Look how shitty that venue is and Zacky doesnt even have tatoos yet. I think thats their old bassest too. They have come a long ass way.
I love this song... and i like their screaming... BUT REMEMBER Matt HAD to stop because he broke a vocal cord and had to have surgery on it... still their stuff is good though... you can tell that Matt sounds different now...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
where's gates on this? it looks like zack is playing lead.
also FUCK every album after waking the fallen. seize the day is crap. it sucks that they turned into stage metal guns and roses pussies who wear metallica t-shirts at their concerts.
he can still scream, they just dont want to do it any more, why i dont know its what they wanted to do as artist. i still love them, i love city of evil and the new one. good music. i saw them live. truly amazing. house of blues in new orleans was the shit, i hope to god they come back. they played this one live and i could have sworn he was screamin on some parts, but on otheres i could tell he wasnt. waking the fallen was without question there best album tho. there still awsome.
nah...that was all fake, if u havnt seen the dvd (seeing that you havnt) that was a rumor started by some dipshit, he just didnt feel like screaming anymore.
I think waken the fallen was an amazing album, however so is city of evil, and anyone who talks shit on that cd is obviously not a musician. I wish he screamed a little more, but they're all amazing and the best band hands down.
In this video, it shows that he's an awesome an singer, but not very high pitched (alough he is an AMAZING screamer) he's always trying to hit really high notes, I bet after that he noticed that its better for him to sing in a bit deeper voice
i love this, finnaly i screaming video, like if u search unholy confessions or like radiant eclipse you will never find a screaming verson, this is a golden find.
at 2:08 is he singing something different? in the CD he says. "all i can see is a place i wanna be, suddenly my life was so free. leaves at my feet will fall to the ground. their echoes are reaching my ears. night's coming fast, sun's going down, but keep away from me." i'm pretty sure that's wut he says in the CD. and NOT in the video.
"Almost Easy" "Big Bear" "Brompton Cocktail" "I Wont See You Tonight Part 3" "Critical Acclaim" "Dear God" "Forever Loved" "Gun Slinger" "Scream" "Last Goodbye" its called avenged sevenfold its released 16th october '07
...he didnt get surgery. Shadows is fine. Watch All Excess, he chooses to not scream, but he's gotten lessons and can now scream better than he ever could before.
but if u watch their new movieall excess they say that the whole surgeroy 2 his trhroat just contributed 2 his abilty 2 sing they even sed that they wanted 2 scream (stst) then scream a lil(waking the fallen) and then just sing (city of evil) but his voice thing just made him not be able 2 scream in the old songs at concerts etc.
they definately use to show a lot more of emotion on stage.. now it seems like they just play the song, and walk around (except for johny christ, he headbangs to everything :D!)
He can't scream like that any more, because he blew a vocal chord, and it doesn't sound the same any more. That is why they don't play this song anymore, because there is too much screaming for them replace. It is not a choice.
Zeppelin0731 is actually pretty wrong. He can scream. He, and the band chose to move away from that genre, and more toward the music styles of their influences. So YEAH YOU"RE WRONG. It was a choice. He still kicks ass.
wow, can you say dumbshit, its not their genre anymore, one of, i think, Zacky's quotes was "We don't want to contribute to that noise pollution anymore"
but i can see thats zacky. but like, he looks like a 10th grader, nothing like he does now. its funny. im saying Shadows is the only person in the whole video that resembles himself now.
He sings really good in this video before he got surgery. its too bad he blew a vessel in his throat now he doesnt sing as well. At least hes still singing and didnt think he was to good to stop
well at least he still sings cos some assholes dunt care bout their fans and give up singin jus cos they blew a blood vessel.=] m.shadows is nice like that. . and zacky is weeelll hawt
Yeah I know that... I just wish he would scream the old songs from Waking the Fallen and Sounding the Seventh Trumpet and stuff, now he sings them and they sound so... Augh... I just don't like that, but I like their new stuff just the same.
Syn and Zacky said in an interview for Guitar Player magazine that they changed their style of music because they were trying to take examples from their influences (Pantera, Maiden and Metallica mostly) and realized their influences didn't have to scream to get big so why should they? Though M. Shadows blowing his vocal chords mighht have been the biggest wake up call.
Their old screamo stuff was good, I love Waking the Fallen, but City of Evil is just as A7X as their first two.
honestly,im for a7x all the way,but COE aint their best work..im being biase cuz the record before that(waking the fallin)was flawless but watever,they still rock!\m/
Incase you didn't know...Matt Shadows had throat surgery due to the fact that he blew out his vocal cords during THIS EXACT PERFORMANCE! (Hense the knew style of singing on City of Evil)...If you watch, his voice distorts while screaming, he grabs his throat, but still finishes his set...Now that's a loaked out mutha fucka! Talk shit on him now you pussies!
he didn't blow them on this performance, i don't know when it was but it was in '04, not now, cause this was early '02 and if you look from warped tour '03 he sings like turn the other way exactly like the album (sounding the seventh trumpet), only in '04 if you've seen "we come out at night" on here his vocals sound strained so it must have happened around there

very true that he had throat surgery due to singing and all...but even M. Shadows said that is not the reason why they changed their style of music

If Shadows blew out his vocal chords on this performance on this performance, was their a major Waking the Fallen Tour or what? a WTF tour anyone?

Incase you didn't know...Matt Shadows had throat surgery due to the fact that he blew out his vocal cords during THIS EXACT PERFORMANCE! (Hense the knew style of singing on City of Evil)...If you watch, his voice distorts while screaming, he grabs his throat, but still finishes his set...Now that's a loaked out mutha fucka! Talk shit on him now you pussies!

he didn't blow them on this performance, i don't know when it was but it was in '04, not now, cause this was early '02 and if you look from warped tour '03 he sings like turn the other way exactly like the album (sounding the seventh trumpet), only in '04 if you've seen "we come out at night" on here his vocals sound strained so it must have happened around there

Ok then I'm mistaken, but you can clearly see the problem with this throat beginning here.
