  • a7x

  • BULLET all tha way! the solo in the "last fight" the crowd also gose more insane (moshing) when bullet gets on stage.

  • dime bag darrell was the best but they all kick ass .. good tunes is good tunes

  • Gunslinger wins.

  • I personally like Synyster Gates better. My 3 favorite bands are:

    1: Avenged Sevenfold

    2: Slipknot

    3: Bullet For My Valentine

    4: Pantera

  • I like Bullet far more than A7X, but I have to be true and say that Syn kicks out Padge's ass

  • a7x afterlife solo

  • for a7x: why there are no second heartbeat, bat country and beast and the harlot?

    for bfmv: why there is no hearts burst into fire and tears don't fall?

    i like both of them, but if i have to choose, i prefer a7x~

  • NOSSA MUUITO LEGAL!! ^^

  • well a7x is kind of gay so bfmv

  • @cshodgson what do u mean?

  • @cshodgson lmao are you shitting me? a7x is gay compared to bfmv? lmao. quite the opposite is true.

  • both great but i think when it comes down to its syn would rip paget a new a**hole

    

  • AVENGED SEVENFOLD!!!!!!!

    

  • Shouldn't this be a guitar battle Michael Paget vs Synyster Gates?

    Anyway, both are epic and shouldn't be compared =)

    My 2 favourite bands <3

  • yeah i would say both.period.

  • Comment removed

  • These bands are both Great. One isnt better than the other.

  • SEVENFOLD TAT IS ALL

  • i love them both sooo much two epic sets of guitarists two epic bands two epic leads but...i honestly have to say .....a7x takes this home

  • A7X

  • How the fuck can anyone argue that Syn and Zacky aren't a better duo that Matt and Padge???

    Avenged Sevenfold's guitar riffs are just so much better written. I do love BFMV though lol.

  • a7x wins

  • A7X's best guitar riffs aren't even on this video lol

  • both. Don't create a war where the two are on the same side.

  • I respect your opinion, but Avenged have more diversity as Bullet, as a general rule, revolve around base note strumming and a higher riff, whereas Avenged have varying riffs and continuous guitar part harmonies usually throughout. Also in my opinion the vocal complexity of Avenged's songs is better. Finally bringing brand into it doesn't work, because 1, nothing to do with their music and 2, i's all preference :)

  • Bfmv :D

  • i dont like the all round sound of both these players, they can do technical stuff but that is it, i prefer solos from older metal such as iron maiden, megadeth, metallica and others. marty friedmen from megadeth is so under rated, want to hear good solos listen to rust in piece, count down to extinction and youthanaisa

  • Bullet for my Valentine wins

  • I have played guitar for four years. I am not saying that just to say i am right and wrong but i do know quite a bit about music. That being said they are both great guitarists and play crazy stuff but synyster knows how to write music to express his feelings. not just playing as fast as possible. and he does it in many songs. Syn knows how to write music not just play. Where Matt does it but only in a couple songs but mainly shreds. Whoever you like better is fine but syn has more talent.

  • Incredibly hard decision, but for me Avenged win outright because of their beastly solos and ability to incorporated such sophisticated complexity and almost classical style into such heavy songs :) check out trashed and scattered for example, the guitar by itself throughout the choruses is simply beautiful while holding beastly metal standards :D favourite band ever!

  • @GNRJaffa a7x is not metal lol.

  • @Vorewilleatyou they clearly are? and please dont use lol, it's stupid :)

  • @GNRJaffa what about that smiley face? seems a bit more worse than my "lol" when it comes to being stupid .

  • @Vorewilleatyou i meant your "lol" is an attempt at being sarcastic and all knowing with reference to your comment about Avenged not being metal, which they are :) I'm pretty sure God Hates Us is metal, and smiley faces are simply friendly and not hostile :)

  • @GNRJaffa dude first of all bullet is way better because of #1 their better and # 2 their better, the reason is because most of a7xs songs sound the same but dont get me wrong im an a7x fan also i went to both of their concerts and to me i think bullets is a llitle more better or more alot like better and also shecter guitars suck and the one that michael padgets esp owns shecters ass all the way

  • bfmv ftw

  • both bands are hella beast

  • Afterlife is a beast solo, 'nuff said

    Synyster Gates Wins

  • The Wicked End, Afterlife, Second Heartbeat, I Won't See You Tonight Part 2 own all the songs by BFMV

  • The Wicke End BRUTAL GUITAR SOLO

    Synyster WINS

  • Dont ever EVER Compare to avenged sevenfold . No matter what you do a7x will win foREVer.especially with syn? Total blow out dude syn can make up random shit that bmfvs guitarist would die to learn so a7x all the way dude .... I like bmfv though theyre not bad

  • the are the 2 best bands ever so it dosent matter.

  • Comment removed

  • eh. Syninster has a muuuuuuch broader and more complicated use of techinique, much better phrasing, much better solo writing abilities, he has a better understanding of music theory (just judging by the solo's he's written). The only thing, and i mean the only thing bullet guy's solo's has is they're a tad bit cleaner(more cleanly played). But if you want an extremely outstanding virtuoso guitarist... go with John Petrucci, or Jeff Loomis or Tom Hess or something

  • Matt Tuck is as great as M Shadows

    Michael "Moose" Thomas isnt greater than Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan

    Johnny Christ and Jason James are both equally great in my opinion, but I Think Christ is better. Jason is better in vocals.

    Michael Padget is a little bit better than Zacky Vengeance but as great as Syn Gates

  • BFMV . listen to the first solo disappear . padge is way better than syn

  • @MoarteaMG dude that solo is easy. its just tremolo picking for the first half the last bit is fast but its easy to nail if you can alt pick fast up and down strings. The afterlife solo has sweeping and takes much more skill, ive been playing almost 2 years i know this. Syn > Padge but both bands are awesome

  • @a7xfan208 you don't understand. i play guitar too. i know how hard is to sweep but sweep is all syn knows. padge has solo's with sweep like scream aim fire and eye of the storm and other solos without sweep like ashes of the innocent the poison etc.

  • @MoarteaMG the sweeping padge does is usually 3 string (dignity deliver us from evil eye of the storm & scream aim fire as you mentioned), syn does lots of 4 and 5 string sweeps (bat country 4 AM demons the wicked end) which are alot harder

  • @a7xfan208 actually eye of the storm has 2 4 strings sweeps

  • @MoarteaMG i guess your talking about the gutiar 2 when it comes in halfway through. didnt think you would know that. yes those are pretty tricky but those are the only 4 string sweeps padge has done. well theres the intro to say goodnight but thats hella easy lol

  • @a7xfan208 the intro of say goodnight has no sweep. and i know padge does a lil sweep but he does hard stuff without sweep.

  • @MoarteaMG say goodnight does but whatever. I think Syn is still better :P

  • a7x.

    

  • Syn for life bitches!!!!!!!!!

  • they're both extreamly skilled guitarest but syn puts heart and sole behind his solos and bfmv(don't know their guitarest name) just goes crazy in my opinion. Also why afterlife for syn "scream" is a much harder solo then afterlife(coming from syn), over all syn for the win.

  • bullet for my valentine of course

  • a7x

    

  • BULLET that is all

  • On the solo's I have to go with A7x and Syn, but for the regular riffs I have to say Bullet. Both are great on either end though. Can't complain no matter who you hear.

  • syn gates enough said

  • you cant really compare these 2 guitarist really cause neither Tuck nor Paget do much soloing.. they do have some songs with solos but not many.. Unlike A7X where Syn almost always solos in every song..

  • vs???? hahahahahahahahaha!!! Synyster f****d Matt like there was no f*cking tomorrow!!

  • SYNYSTER GATES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bullet for my Valentine a good in their way, but Avenged sevenfold is completly epic. Now, I personally dont enjoy taking sides between two metal bands,("Then why the fuck did you watch it???") but this is a good match up. SYN foREVer!!!!!!

  • tie alsome fucking bands

  • i must say synyster gates is the most talented guitarist i've ever heard thus making him the obvious choice for me.....A7X foREVer

  • look there's just something about Avenged Sevenfold that i can feel their music, not that i cant with other bands, but i say Syn takes it. bkuz with any song from b4mv, A7X will match it n beat it. =) *foREVer*

  • Wins A7X!

  • Synester Gates is better then all four of A7X and B4MV guitarist. but i think ALOT of people under estimate Michael Paget, i mean the guy does some amazing solo's, hell he dosent even need a Whammy bar to do some of his solos. ;)

  • Not to mention that everyone in A7x is a beast at what they do. Shadows is a beast on vocals/screaming. The Rev may he R.I.P. Was and always will be the best drummer, Johnny is a beast on bass, zackys a beast on rhythm guitar and syn is definitely a beast on lead guitar. Everyone in BFMV is okay at what they do, but to me, all of their shit sounds the same. A7x can mix it up try new shit and still come out on top.

  • Synyster Gates + Zacky Vengeance = best guitar duo ever.

  • gates wins by 100%

  • a7x wins

  • A7X wins

  • you picked some rly shitty songs for this...

  • Megadeth

  • i'am sure that BFMV are more emo than A7x!

    i'am with axedstoninst at this one! xd

    BTW Avenged sevenfold just blows BFMV away!

  • @theAvengedsniper if bmfv are way more emo than a7x then why does a7x wear makeup and have dumb stage names like synister and shadows? the rev i understand because.. well hes the rev.. but seriously? bfmv dont even wear eyeliner. A7X doesnt go anywhere without their makeup and tight ass emo clothes. i like both bands but damn... wheres your reasoning? i mean zacky looks like some kinda fuckin dead clown half the time. as a stereotypical emo person i know what emo is.

  • @ThexSeventhxSeal i have to argee with you! they are clothed more emo than BFMV! but i still like A7X more than BFMV, but that's just my opinion!

  • A7X There more experienced, than them

  • A7X

  • Neither guitarist is better, Bullet is more aggressive A7X is more into it emotionally... but sometimes i feel like Synyster shouldnt try and solo so long at his concerts because by the time the next song starts half the emo population at their concerts commits suicide from waiting so long and he just extends them to long... Padge keeps them short and to the point. Both are amazing though...and all the haters should back off cause theyre famous and ur negative opinion means shit to them

  • Syn much better.

  • Synyster is better than Paget but BFMV is so much better than A7X!

  • Avenged Sevenfold wins. I love all three bands, BFMV, I love Avenged Sevenfold, they're my favorite band and nothing can compare to them. I love Slipknot too, one of my favorites. WHY MAKE VIDEOS COMPARING THEM???

  • bmfv sucks shit. they are a bunch of emo motherfuckin faggots a7x is way better

  • @axedstoninst what a dumb fucking thing too say...have u seen synyster gates or zacky vengeance? clearly ur retarded. All of A7x's songs are emo, Bullet at least mixes it up and has angry, sad, or just songs that jam the fuck out, You fail seriously at making judgements and should stop talking. Before B4MV even started with what you call emo they were nu-metal...and it was the farthest thing from being emo. But "Seize the Day," "Afterlife," "Buried Alive," etc...all emo my friend.

  • @merrah23 so now emo means good music and nu metal means fucking retarded piece of shit?

    educate your fucking self on music you moronic piece of bmfv worshiping trash, plus you are seriously retarded if you think afterlife is emo and retarded shit like "tears dont fall" is not. before you put yourself on the spot and make a retarded statement about the meaning of words or genres pick up a dictionary you fucking retard

  • @axedstoninst u obviously have never looked at any of the lyrics of an avenged sevenfold song, ull see all of a7x's albums listen under emo. i never said nu-metal was shitty or emo was shitty. i just said u clearly should have no say because u actually have the audacity to call bullet "emo trash" come to a bullet concert u mother fucker and say that.... go ahead and reply to this, i dont need to prove anything else to u u fucking m. shadow's cock-sucking imbred piece of shit.

  • @axedstoninst oh and btw for someone who wants to diss another persons education, spelling and grammar... u sure do have a lot of errors in your typing...oh and if u were smart u would not use the word emo the way u do. It means emotional, not wrist cutter...Not all people are gonna cry when they read this and go cut their wrists like u. Pfffft... peace pussy, oh and wipe the cum off ur lip bitch, M. Shadows wouldnt want his token hoe looking like shit like u do

  • @merrah23 not just that, im insulting your all around intelligence, honestly, the fucking statements you make just make me and everyone else think that you were either dropped on your head at birth or your fucking 2 cent whore mother smoked to much crack while she was pregnant with you. and P.S YOU should go sink rinse the cum out of your asshole matthew tuck doesn't like his faggot fucking male groupies like yourself dirty the second time around.

  • @axedstoninst i hope ur not talking about a7x. if anything theyre punk/hard rock. their first 2 albums could even be classified as "death punk"..lol.. nu-metal is derived from the combination of metal and rap (i.e. limp bizkit, linkin park). BMFV actually started as a nu metal band named "jeff killed john". and as far as emo goes, emo is more of a style of dress and whatnot more than a music genre, emos listen to screamo, not this un-hardcore shit. people only say emo cuz of matts singin voice.

  • i got to say they are about even

    

  • a7x is better in every way thats why they are touring now and bullet is opening for them bullet is shit ive seen them live. A7X live is fucking incredible

  • their music is different and theyre actually fans of each other and wouldnt appreciate all the negative shit flyin back and forth. bullet is more metal and grew from being a nu metal band and A7X is more of hard rock that grew from being a punk metal band. shadows didnt even learn to scream untill their second album. he just kinda punk yelled on their fist. if they didnt like and respect each other they sure as hell wouldnt play together.

  • @briandominguez16 You sir, are a faggot 

  • bullet for my valentine fuck you A7X .Matt and Padge a better aound quality and soemtimes what the fuck do A7x right BOUT aww boohooo the revs dead get over it u faggots,, A7X gets dissed by girls alot mainly about so BFMV dominates those fags

  • Comment removed

  • @briandominguez16 Alright kid, you can't compare the bands. They are both different and very good in their own way. A lot of people prefer A7X (like me) but others like BFMV. I'm not judgin them though and callin the BFMV fans faggots. Grow up. The rev also is in a category of his own.  He was very unique and was the most talented drummers in the modern day IMO. And the thing about the girls isn't true either. A lot of my friends who are girls love A7X.

  • @briandominguez16 say your bestfriend dies would you get over it in a year, i dont think so mate so jog on

  • bullet for my valentine fuck you A7X

  • How can you even compare A7x with bullet??? D: A7x wins. Flawless victory.

  • i like avenged sevenfold and bullet for my valentine there both my top favorite bands so its kind hard for me to choose lol its epicly hard for me to choose

  • Okay, I think for this one The Wicked End is the secondary placement for A7X's win, first being Afterlife. This is good, but BFMV (new) just doesn't put the emotion in like Gates and V.

  • LOL these bands both suck cock. How about Paul Gilbert vs Everyone.

  • @RiceKiller191 Get off your high-horse you shitty prick. Go listen to them and not whine about new guys coming to the scene and taking it.

  • @Killswitch342 Well I do guess a high hirse is better than a steaming pile of shit.. Which these bands both deliver.

  • @RiceKiller191 Go fuck off and get back to your shitty guitar play. Don't be mad at guys stealing your person's light; be glad you get to hear something new. Buzz of, you no-good, lazy swine. You don't know enough.

  • @Killswitch342 Go back to my shitty guitar play... lol if this is good to you than you don't know what Great guitar playing is. And no I'm not mad they're stealing my favorite guitarists' light. Since one lives in Japan and the other is dead. Although one of them is indeed the greatest guitarist of all time, and no he's not the deceased one.

  • @RiceKiller191 No, I know good from great. Speed is not great, speed is only good on drums. I can't vent anymore so.. who's your guitarist, then?

  • @Killswitch342 No one ever said Speed was great chief. My favorite guitarists? Paul Gilbert and Randy Rhoads.

  • @RiceKiller191 Just rambling, I am. Headache I have. Rhoads is great, is because he shredded, but he had speed. Syn has talent: emotion, care and hope.

  • @Killswitch342 He didn't only shred, He was a classical guitarist. Able to play slow and melt faces.

  • @RiceKiller191 I know what he did, I'm not a complete idiot, though we all are to a point. In many, he did shred.

  • @Killswitch342 It's wasn't just his playing, he was a musical genius.

  • @RiceKiller191 Agreed. So are other, just not as much. The Rev, Syn, M. Shadows, Rhoads, Dimebag, all talent to no end.

  • @Killswitch342 Not so much the first 3. Decent drummer, Mediocre guitarist, Horrible singer.

  • @RiceKiller191 I won't snap at you, but I must say he's one of the best drummers. M. Shadows has come a long way from.. well, that incident and then Syn is just epic. Have you heard To End The Rapture, all trhee versions?

  • @Killswitch342 He was a pretty good drummer, I wouldn't say one of the best but good none the less. Hate screaming "vocals" and I can't stand the singers voice. Sounds like a gremlin getting raped. synyster is not that good of a guitarist. He's about average but nothing really special. He gets really overrated. Never heard those songs. Have you ever heard of Paul Gilbert?

  • @RiceKiller191 We have owned this page, if not the last few. He's to be respect and is among the gods (Get the latest issue of Revolver). He's not longer as much of a screamer as he was and has talent compared to many bands. Syn is actually very good, not overrated, hell underrated if anything. I've heard of him and listened: not impressive to me. When you just shred the neck and then throw notes in, that's not skill, that's speed.

  • @Killswitch342 OH no no no. Gilbert is basically the greatest most versatile well-rounded guitarist ever. I don't think you have heard much of his stuff. The videos of him and his albums are completely different. Live he likes to shred like crazy because the fans like it and he just like to have fun. His album work, usually most are semi fast paced, and the rest are slow really flowing songs, but of coarse they all have some ridiculous shred at some point. And usually a classical song at the end

  • @Killswitch342 I agree with your last phrase of skill not speed to an extent. You have to be semi good to play blindingly fast, especially if it's as hard as the stuff Gilbert plays. But he doesn't just shred. He was in Mr. Big if you know who they are lol. 90's Pop/Rock band which had the best Guitarist, Gilbert, and one of the greatest bassists, Billy Sheehan. He's like Steve Vai, but more Hard Rock/Metal.

  • @RiceKiller191 I agree, but I just don't like it when people come to these vids. all like "This BAND SUX COCK XDXDXDD!!"?!? You know? I get tired of going to a band's site and seeing "I hate this suing bad lolol!~"

  • two of my all time fav bands. you know wat... they both win because they're both A LOT better than MANY other bands out there

  • i love bfmv but gates is better sorry

  • Can't pick they both kick major ass

  • Syn and zacky are more technical and they play with a lot of emotion so i pick them. However bullet is a good band and i think they are better at tapping.

  • i like both so i cant really pick one "/

  • avenged sevefold 4 life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Dmebag schooled them both and hes not in here.

  • They're both amazing. I pick both. (They are seriously both tied for 1st as my favorite bands)

  • I love both bands, but i mean i skipped over some bullet song just to hear more avenged sevenfold

  • i wish i could give a answer but i cant guys

  • SYNYSTER GATES ALL THE FUCKING WAY!! I mean...COME ON!!! Just listen to Afterlife!! That guy is beast!

  • I don't even know why this would be a contest. Synyster Gates is so much more technical and his melodys are insanely epic. Bullet is good in it's own way but I mean, come on. . . Gates OWNS his solos. Always. (also I don't get the chills when I listen to Bullet, but whenever Gates is on the track I'm ready to throw my panties at him)

  • @NightmarishlyWicked dis is dead ass funny

  • @knockoutkev lol it's the truth tho, i gotta tell it like it is lol

  • @NightmarishlyWicked I agree 100% with you. But this just me, A7X is and has been my fav band forever. so obv im gonna pick Synyster Gates. but not just cuz A7X is my fav, its cuz Synyster is just sooo talented and has the must epic solos ever. And personaly Synyster Gates is my fav member of A7X :)

  • @NightmarishlyWicked its just because girls prefer synyster gates over padget (i mean due to his looks)

    and that is irrelevant here :p BFMV\m/

  • @Zahdman it's also because i prefer A7X stylistically, too. Not gonna deny Synyster Gates is one sexy bastard, but I also prefer Shadows vocals to the guy from BFMV and they're a little more diverse, with their groovin' rhythms and stuff like that. I mean i like both bands, but I'm a die-hard A7X fan.

  • @NightmarishlyWicked thats cuz gates kiks zacky outta the way. hes done it the whole time and he was still doin it when i seen em 2 months ago, since zacky sucks i would too..lol.. but thats the thing that pisses me off about a7x. they just shit on johnny christ and he is a hell of a bass player and put zacky on a pedestal. the thing about bmfv is that they are about the whole band, matt writes the lyrics, sings, screams and plays rythm guitar. id like to see shadows do that.

  • @NightmarishlyWicked ur a fucking dumb ass to say that comment so proud, your insane to say Gates is better than Tuck or Padge. Sure Gates is good, butt come on the solos and riffs from BFMV are way better, more techanical, sexier, harder to play and yeah

  • @MrMichaelMaggot your welcome to you opinion, just like i'm welcome to mine. i'd appreciate it if you didn't call me a "fucking dumb ass" tho. I was stating MY opinion, and i happen to be a hige fan of A7X, not BFMV. i like both but i prefer A7X more. so chill with the names, and go ahead and listen to whatever the hell you please. doesn't bother me in the slightest. I still like Avenged Sevenfold better.

  • @NightmarishlyWicked I like them both too, butt for u to say that Gates is better is just crazy, u know it, i know it, and ur mother knows it ♥

  • @MrMichaelMaggot Dude as a guitar Player my self i would rather style my self after Synyster and Vengeance due to the pure heart and soul they pour in to their playing dont get me wrong yes tuck and padge are good but they dont have as much heart in their music

  • @MrMichaelMaggot harder to play my fucking ass and penis hole have you ever tried to learn a fucking synyster gates solo? no then shut the fuck up

  • @synystermetalshred fuck u skank, i know how to play a few from the lessons ur milf mother gave me

  • @MrMichaelMaggot ill take that as a "no i havent, because im a lil stuck up bitch with a huge cock in my ass" fuck you and fuck your face you cant even play synyster gates solos so you fuck off and play the simple shit sounding solos from bfmv which blow major ass

  • @synystermetalshred fuck u whore, u have no idea who u r talking to. I know everysong off of nightmare so stfu before i come to ur house, shave ur girlfriends bush and shove her favorite 4 inch dildo up ur ass cuz we all know thats the most meat shes ever getting besides ur thumbpicker.

  • @MrMichaelMaggot kinda sad its like im still talking to 13 year olds dude your so defensive your worse than a bitching woman thats pregnant. your full of shit you dont know any songs your a troll and a hopless fuck, and ya dude very offensive trash talk throught the internet, im so offended because you like shitty guitar solos you know im right which is why your are acting like a fucking cunt so fuck your face you worthles nigger. and ya dude you have no fucking clue who you are talking to

  • @synystermetalshred 13 my as. ur the one getting so upset cuz i simply stated my opinon on here. ur bitching about whose a better guitar player, everyone has differences on that u should know. so u wanna talk about being offended? come on i fuck sluts who can put up a better arguement that urself. u bitch like a teen girl on birth control. now fuck u, ur mother, ur boyfriend and ur asshole.

    peace

  • @MrMichaelMaggot okay so its very warm and moist on the inside and rather tight at first..

  • @synystermetalshred just like ur mothers

  • @MrMichaelMaggot but once you get used to the nice wet tightness it becomes really smooth and rather slippery inside..

  • @synystermetalshred just like jacobs momma.

  • @MrMichaelMaggot and then from their is very lubricated if you will, over time though it does get tighter again so dont be afraid when it does

  • @synystermetalshred Im not afraid, i mean ur mom likes the domonatrix shit but it doesnt scare me,

  • @MrMichaelMaggot so from now on you can keep bitching about your boring fucking gay ass insults, and ill tell you what a vagina feels like kkk? :D

  • @synystermetalshred u do that why ur getting a cock meat sandwhich from some random guy on the street

  • i love both bands...but synyster fucking gates owns...oh and zacky v hahaha

  • Syn Gates hands down

  • 2
