  • IMO, their best song on City of Evil. Strength of the World is another one nobody ever talks about. I think that may be just as good. I'd love to hear them play either one live today. Especially with Shadows vocals all healed up, and not using that nasally shit anymore.

  • This is such an underrated song.

  • They are fucking GOOD I love them :D

  • qualidade ta foda mano curti demais!

  • Thank You!! :') Sounds Really Good

  • holy shit this is good quality. thank you!

  • The Wicked End Is really difficult to sing in live !

  • Holy shit this is just perfect

  • how is it even possible to play this song live... and soooo... goood! *___*

  • ooooooooh fucking wicked end '----'

  • Matt's voice 4.37 *-*

  • @PekiShinoda  Muito foda o//

  • all the songs in city of evil should of got a music vid

  • Shit gets real at 4:00 especially when the Rev starts singing

  • The Wicked End, Sidewinder, Strength of the World and MIA; City of Evil's forgotten jewels!

  • for long time . at last , I can hear this song in live version . :D

  • "THESE WILL BE OUR FINAL DAYS AND IIIIIIIIIIIII CAAAAAAAAAAAAANT LET GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" gah I miss you, Jimmy.

  • 1:47 foREVer :D

  • Synyster fuckin' Gates!

  • @LukzHenrike nononono/.. its Synester MOTHER FUCKIN' Gates!!!

  • @Ignis179 *Synyster

  • the rev sings at 5:18-5:27. He sounded amazing.

  • ive voted for this song everyday since the polls started. WTF a7x fans.

  • shadows voice is so fucking powerful in this song.

  • Gotta love that bass

  • dude!, this is my fav song! but i cant play it on my guitar xDD, syn gates its so fking azn D:  a7x FTW!

  • ThotdFan127, do you by chance remember the date that this is from? I'm assuming sometime in 2006, am I right?

  • @jacaria21 Actually early 2005 before the release of City of Evil this was also played on some dates of the Cities of Evil tour in Fall 2005 along with other rare tracks such as Strength of the World and MIA (proshot of this exists) The song has never been played live since then however

  • @ThotdFan127 Oh ok, thanks! I wish I'd been as big a fan of Avenged then as I am now so I could've seen all these awesome songs live. I'm still hoping this song makes the cut on their Uproar setlist since they're letting fans pick the songs. :D

  • @jacaria21 So it's not just me?! I already voted a couple of days ago and I was checking back and this is honestly my favorite song and I wish it was top 10/20

  • @luftwaffe0024 Definitely not just you! :D

  • @ThotdFan127 proshot of Strength exists? Where at haha

  • @TomWhaley621 oh wait.. MIA you meant? Gotcha

  • @TomWhaley621 i'd kill for a good quality strength of the world video

  • God, I love this song so much!

  • definantley one of their most underrrated songs! love it!

  • @bdGongShow Thsi and Radiant Eclipse

  • @ThotdFan127 YES!!! That is an amazing song!!!

  • I wish I can watch Syn do the guitar solo

  • only audio, but the best version on youtube =) They can great live!

  • M. Shadows voice crack at 1:46!!!!

    He IS human!

  • @TheFourtwoOH no that was just his magic :D tho his screams in 2004 did sound pretty awful

  • @ThotdFan127 oh man, 2003-2004 were the best!

  • @TheFourtwoOH hell yes best years of a7x Waking the Falen was the best album they've released

  • @TheFourtwoOH - First of all,that wasn't even Matt singing at 1:46. 1000000000% positive!!!! The background singer fucks up the vocals. Matt absolutely did not fuck up whatsoever. He sounded absolutely beautiful!!!! Loved it

  • @harrycajones It was The Rev lol, he was drumming at the same time to be fair 

  • @harrycajones look to the skies for knowledge, the stars align to-VOICE CRACK-night. yeah, it's M. Shadows. you have to be a fucking retard to think otherwise. can't you tell the difference between their voices?

  • @TheFourtwoOH The voice crack is barely noticeable though. It was there, but it blended with the song. However, it is obviously Matt.

  • @NeekoNeeko2 Thank you. Avenged sevenfold is my favorite band, and i was not talking shit. I just thought it was funny that his voice cracked

  • @TheFourtwoOH Oh, I understand, they are mine as well, just some people haven`t listened to this song enough to hear what was clearly Shadows/

  • @harrycajones listen to it again. i just did. there's no mistake, that's Matt.

  • i really liked the picture u used!

  • @athannos I really like your sense of humor!!! btw did you see the old Unholy Confessions video yet that was unused?

  • @ThotdFan127 thanks, dont know which video u mean exacly but if you talking about the commentry-like kinda video yeah long time ago :)

  • This guitar solo makes me pull of my cloths and becoming horny...

  • where was this played?

  • @Cjepson17 have no clue

  • This song is definitely underrated and one of my favorites!

  • PWNAGE!

  • WTF They need to play this live! They like only did it twice.

  • synyster gates is really fucking Good ! Amazing Sweeps *-* my IDOL !

  • damn the sweeping in the solo sounded really good for a live show

  • "Killer Boots Man!"

  • M shadows for the FUCKING WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Shadows Voice In This Is Unbelievable!

  • the song was cool

    BUT THE VIDEO WAS SICK

  • The Rev NEEDS to come back!!!!!!

  • @becauseiey it's been too long that he's been in the forest!!!

  • Shadows has one of the strongest voices in music. There are not many artists who can belt out the notes like he can. RIP Jimmy

    And Long Live AVENGED SEVENFOLD

  • I love The Rev's backing vocals. :D

  • best fucking song from avenged sevenfold

  • where did u get this???????? sounds real good

  • @TheJattrawker ..get out.

  • @TheJattrawker ...get out.

  • im not the greatest fan of this album but my mom kept accidently buying me city of evil so i have 3 cds of it ha

  • @my7fold LOL my mom did that with the first Slipknot album but they were different editions so I didn't care lol

  • @my7fold its my favorite album of all time :)

  • orgasmic :D

  • the 2 dislikers are gays and they fuck each other :D:D

  • Johnny killed the beginning...

  • @nickanbilly i hope you mean in a good way

  • @greyfox807 well since the sound of his bass almost made my ears have a orgasim u figure it out lol

  • @nickanbilly lol nice! there just awesome...

  • It's sometimes a shame with all the tampering with sound on music production now, cuz it's kinda shocking when you hear it in it's complete rawness, and you wonder why the vocals aren't spot on. Anyhoo, Matt's big roar-type notes were amazing, just a shame the backing vocals are quite painful and the whiny singing parts (which I love btw) can often go a little off when he's live. Still, best band ever and one of their best songs from what I think is their best album

    :)

  • @galbat0rixx I actually feel a7x is a fantastic live band and I like Shadows live alot idc that he has trouble hitting some high notes and there sound isn't too overproduced thankfully. I get what ur saying tho so many modern bands are so edited especially in metalcore, When a7x played metalcore u got what they could pull off no effects nowadays none of the singers can sing live and sometimes not even scream its terrible

  • i can see y they only played this once...kinda sloppy...but still pretty sick

  • Amazing!

  • the best avenged song

  • 5:21 to 5:29 EPIC

  • Matt's voice is amazingly powerful here...and obv The Rev is just fucking tight as hell as always!

  • Where is this played?

  • @AwokenD3MON I have no clue sadly

  • @ThotdFan127 Ahhhh it's alright. I'm doing a project on one of their concerts, but I think Live in the LBC is a more valid choice anyhow.

  • was synyster gates high during this show? because i saw him play this song live once, and he wasnt missing that many notes or having some "comas" during bends. But damn, the rev playing was perfect!

  • if u know the band,this can only be the rev singing ;)

  • these guys are amazing both live and on record!!!!!

  • What a hard song to play live.... and they do it so well. Love it

  • come to germany!

  • Epic song, tooo bad they dont sing it live that often..

  • @Huesusiro i bet its because its a bitch to play! but i wish they did too!!

  • The very best of City of Evil: Beast and the Harlot, Burn It Down, Blinded In Chains, Bat Country, Trashed and Scattered, Seize the Day, Sidewinder, The Wicked End, Strength of the World, Betrayed, M.I.A...... wait a minute?...... I just listed the whole album. The Wicked End is one of the better songs on the album though. My personal favorite is Bat Country though.

  • @GoodOlRudy i didn't particularly like strength of the world...idk just never got into it :/

  • I love you M. Shadows :) R.I.P Rev you beast drummer.

  • 1 person sucks ass

  • @paramorehalestorm Which one?

  • @ThotdFan127 the one who dislikes this :)

  • @ThotdFan127 the one person who disliked this video :D

  • @ThotdFan127 That person sucks indeed!!!

  • @ThotdFan127 yes he/she does!!!

  • dude i thought they never did this live! fucfking amzing!

  • i wish they could play this song more often live :/ i think this is like, the only time ive heard it being played live...song kicks as though

  • Leave it to the rev to not slow down during the fast part like every other live drummer I've ever seen does. It annoys the crap out of me when they do! Fricken bad-ass song though

  • yeaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • dude ive been looking for this for so fucking long.... thank you

  • @drwndntornasundr Your welcome all thanks goes to the Chapter Four forums :D

  • i wish i could SEE them playing this song live!

  • shadows+the rev vocals=AWESOMENESS

  • Comment removed

  • dude.one of the best songs ive ever heard,

  • the part of the song is absolutely 4.00- 6.08 killer song!=P

  • I think im in love...with the Rev's voice!

  • haha a lot of their songs have some pretty wicked lyrics :) (specially a little piece of heaven)

  • i was trying to find this song live basiclly to hear if synister could carry it out without a mistake sure he put me in my place :P

  • I feel as if some of the lyrics were made for The Rev. "it will be our final days and I can't let go" "a stab in the dark but it wounded our friend" he wasn't killed but his death hurt his friends (band members) and there some others too

    "your time is precious they explained" I know they aren't exactly for him but u get the point

    Anyway sry for this comment taking up space cause of spacing R.I.P. Rev

  • It would sound better if they didn't try to harmonize everything :/

  • No it wouldn't. That's what gives A7x it's uniqueness. Even though they're not the first or only band to harmonize, they really have their own style with it. It's actually musical contrary to most other bands hitting as many notes as possible and ending up hitting a bunch of notes outside of the key signature. They think about both the musicality AND the energentic aspects of the music.

  • @LunarApocalypse it's not about speed, it's that they're harmonizing, and it's taking away from the rhythm guitar part. The melodies are good, but they would sound better with some background.

  • Oh alright I get what you're saying.

  • MATTS VOICE GIVES ME FREAKIN CHILLS!

  • Where Can i find the vid to this?

  • yeah its the rev at 1:07

  • Comment removed

  • For everyone who was arguing this,, at 1:07 its the rev,, listen to how the rev sings in a little piece of heaven (live),, sounds just like him

  • Yeah exactly, it's obvious anyway it's The Rev, in the sense of - who else in the band has a voice like that?

    I love it when he sings the "it will be our final days and I can't let go", I'm gonna miss him, his drumming, his voice, his crazy party animal behaviour, true legend R.I.P!

  • @1991ant1991 Hell yeah it's obvious, who else in the WORLD has a voice like that? :D

  • @1991ant1991 That line was Matt,not the Rev!

  • @harrycajones Well yeah, if you listened more carefully you would have realised that The Rev was singing it as well in the background!

  • @Libertine19 its not that they were sloppy. like in the pre chorus. they were trying to improvise and add vibrato. but they each did it to much and bent it to far stretching the intervals. giving the disanant sound we all heard. and yes. they should try to work on this song for a live performance. id love to see this song live. its so powerful i would love to see how they do there stage lighting to it

  • @tapeworm489 so they bent the notes too far? thanks for the insight genius , what the fuck do you think i meant by sloppy?

  • shadows voice is better here than the album

  • I just noticed that Zacky sounds exactly like shads, except not as raspy.

  • thats the rev singing not zacky

  • @nephew455 No, I'm pretty sure at 1:07, that's Zacky.

  • @Ouclypse no it's the rev

    zacky were singing at 1:15

  • @Quatroback i think thats zacky at 1:07 actually. the rev has a higer pitched singing voice

  • @XcXVendettaXcX indeed, he got a high pitched singing voice, but that doesn't mean he can't hit the lower notes as well

    listen closely and you'll hear it's definately the rev.

    his voice is unmistakable

  • 1:07 is obviously the rev are u crazy listen to his voice

  • @Ouclypse no its the rev. i know zacky and revs voice really well. ive seen them live myself and i know how they both sing.

  • syn doesn't always play his solos in his songs exactly the same way, also, making fun of someone for not making a pick slide to your liking is idiotic, considering the fantastic playing he did throughout the rest of the song, plus, if you were playing in front of thousands of people (which you never will, so you're the only failure) you might screw up every once in a while too.

  • @coping34343 haha yeahh true it might not be a fuck up. it might just be a little something he cooked up in a split second. but nonetheless, this song is beastly. and yeahh don't make fun of a little error. idk what that was but i don't think that was supposed to be a pick slide at all.

  • I love the fail pick slide at the end of the solo.

  • that little mess up that synyster gates did at 1:59 during the harmony actually sounded kinda freshh haha he can make any fuck up sound awesome =p

  • Are you quite sure he messed up then?

  • @Acidwrath

    yes. one of the notes he plays around the end of the first repetition of the main harmony, he was supposed to play a C#, not a C. if you understand music theory or know a little about musical notes and stuff, then you should be able to understand what i'm saying. if not, just listen to the first main harmony and then listen to the second main harmony and you'll notice a difference. listen closely though

  • Yes i am an enthusiastic guitar player, but my ear is not attuned to quite the degree of detail as yours, my mistake :] glad to see a reply that wasn't just mindless agression and was acutally quite constructive. Thank you, i will listen further.

  • @Acidwrath

    haha it's okay. yeahh i don't like douche bags on youtube. but just so you know, the C# harmonized with an E is what gives the harmony an "eerie" sound. zacky plays the E. playing a regular C note makes it just a regular minor harmony. but yeahh listen to it a few times and eventually you'll hear it

  • This is amazing, I thought it would suck live because it has alot more than 2 guitars in it. But as usual, they pulled it off. my fav A7X song. RIP THE REVEREND THOMELOW PLAGUE

  • haha you butchered tholemew or however you spell it

  • The Wiked End is so cool because has a lot of cool harmonies and stuff in the song. :)

    It's amazing how they play very well live.

    Sorry for bad engllish.

    A7X Rules~

  • that sweeping at the end of the solo is incredible!

  • "swallowed lies and swam in our own tears, a stab in the dark but it wounded our will!"

  • "Voice your prophecy shed us some light! Feel sorrow for mankind's chance to survive!"

  • this is my favorite song !! thanks you so much

  • @xxzackyx

    SAME HERE!!!!!!!!

  • Still cant believe hes dead..... he was a god

    rip The Rev =(

  • I have been looking for this forever thankyou for the upload!!

  • i growed up with jimmys drumming and now he is dead, i cant believe it. :´(
