The Truth About M. Shadows Screaming

[Shit2223]

Too much screaming is like swearing too much do it every sentence and it has no meaning or power behind it.

But when you hardly use it its intense as hell when you do.

[theguyfromBVBARMY]

shadows screaming voice and singing voice hits the perfect note to make me shit myself......................i wasnt joking either

[67joka]

Wgaf ax7 is awesome

[Yousuck00]

So in other words, "the band wanted their songs to be played on the radio so they quit screaming".

[TheQuantumIV]

@Yousuck00 watch the video and listen u idiot.

[hbomb2704]

yep!

[Idaaaws]

Hell yeah, bitches!

[Riddles697]

He can still scream. I saw them a month ago and he did it PERFECTLY!

[LewismA7X]

He can scream cos a went to see them a year or two ago and they played unholy confessions and it was awesome

[danthetinman916]

he can still scream but more on a limitied basis though avenged may have wanted to go all singing the fact remain shadows did have a clot in his throat from in properly screaming which was surgically removed and from then on out doc's told him that he had to limit the screaming or he wouldn't be talking by the time he was 40

[ultraray20]

It looks like the guy is fapping in the thumbnail

[tashenaevers]

MATT SHADOWS IS FREAKING AWESOME AND ITS BULL CRAP PPL TLKING THT HE CANT SCREAM ANYMORE, AND WHO EVER THINKS THT U CAN GET OFF UR HIGH HORSE AND U TRY TO SCREAM LIKE HIM.......AND U SEE WAT HE GOES THROUGH, NOW SHUT UP AND STOP TLKING SHIT ABOUT IT...............

[Redghost124]

Syn: Murdocks a dead man

XD all access..

[jakabbaZ]

@Redghost124 It was actually The Rev who said that...

[Redghost124]

@jakabbaZ Actually no, it was both.

[jakabbaZ]

@Redghost124 Please watch 42.28 from all excess and you'll see it's The Rev who says that. Syn doesn't say that it's Rev. I've watched that document like 100 times and Syn doesn't say, I know.

[az10588]

Avenged Sevenfold = Gods of Metal

[blackflame21love]

i <3 shadows, i<3 avengend sevenfold and all their music, and yea i love it when they scream, but they are pretty badass even without their screaming

[goshtamoshta]

The truth about Matt Shadows screaming...its fucking beast!!

[Zerkzer]

Its all good, screaming or not, I prefer songs with it mixed up, imho :)

[TheSeventhVengeance]

Shads STILL screams at live shows, and performs all his songs like a beast.

[halo2846x]

hopefully they do another album with screaming. waking the fallen is the best album so far!

[blackflame21love]

@halo2846x its tied between that and sounding the seventh trumpet, but yea its great

[chan12898]

i like avenged sevenfold better when Shadows actually sings

[xxshadowsxx0988]

I love Shadows vocals, Second Heartbeat and Victim are two good songs to show how good he is :)

[dropp30]

i heard him live screaming unholy confessions at the rockstar uproar festival this last labor day

[sochioranmyaku]

same thing happens with every band. after a while the vocalist just doesn't want to scream any more

[JZ8KJ]

thank you, just because a band changes dosent mean theyve lost anything, it usualy means they decided to change, i hate you fucking judgemental fucks get over yourselves and listen to the music, thats all the artists want...

[ProjectDragonEye]

@JZ8KJ same thing happened to Metallica :/

[JZ8KJ]

@ProjectDragonEye yep same deal, difrent band, if they werent changing the sound everyone would get borde of it...

[ProjectDragonEye]

@JZ8KJ yeah but metalheads cant stand change.

[mrpuppyman]

i hope he decides to scream again

[drummerboysquires]

THANK YOU

[appleZZer0]

sounding the 7th trumpet is their 1st album rite??

[MattyyyM]

@appleZZer0 Yeah

[serrenaable]

i hope to one day see justin beiber on stage an mat shadows runs up screaming "ots ur fucken nightmare" an justin shits himself on stage ;p

[Vampy663]

@serrenaable lmfao!!!

[14talen]

alright hears the deal ok? This Justin Beiber kid or howevr the f**k u spell it, IS a good singer but i just dont like him. And if we REALLY want 2 honor Avenged Sevenfold then we'll just flag all the comments about Justin Beiber. There will b no more comments bout some gay kid on legends' videos.

[DilosOfRoblox]

justin beaver is a gay little peace of shit. FUCK YOU FOR SAYING THAT IM GUNNA MAKE YOU EAT MY SHIT THEN SHIT THAT SHIT OUT THEN EAT IT AGAINE THE SHIT IT OUT AGAINE MIX IN A LITTLE WHITE DOG SHIT MAKE YOU EAT THAT THEN SHIT IT OUT AGAIND COVER IT IN SALT THEN EAT IT AGAINE!

[XIsteeldemonIX]

@DilosOfRoblox lol your a trollolololol

[TheA7xmadman]

m. shadows did say he dosnt like screaming but he knew it was what they started as and that waas what there ambitions were , to become a screaming metal band he said it was what they were first knows as and so they must keep that trend going even if now its like one screaming song in the latest two albums e.g. a little bit in little peace of heaven and a fare amount in god hates us so dont say m.shadows is a liar your the liar you jerk-off

[Jimpaco]

when he does scream like in god hates us its badass

[MenInTightsooh]

@Jimpaco in their debut album, "Sounding the Seventh Trumpet" and in the following album, "Waking the Fallen" Matt screams a shit ton, and he does it well.

[bmsturgis3]

m.shadows has the best voice EVER both ways

[CornadaTV]

@bmsturgis3 Nope, Phil Anselmo does.

[griffinjackson413]

@bmsturgis3 No I have to disagree in some songs yes he may but Corey Taylor from slipknot has a more powerful booming voice and when he is not touring with slipknot he is also lead signer for stone sour and he can sing awesome electric an acoustic, also Johnny Davis from korn is fantastic as well.

[NoobDante]

has screaming has singing hahaha

[lellie7x]

bakers gonna bake

[uza1r]

That was in your face suckers (A7x haters, lol perhaps the hell lovers)

[pettylove13]

Why are people debating popularity...  the vast majority of people nowadays are music retarded anyways...stupid fucking pop and hip-hop shit is "popular," but that doesn't mean good!!!!) A7X doesn't care about popularity and neither should their fans!! They do what they want and they are amazing. I love all of their albums and Waking the Fall is incredible... even if you don't like screaming, the instrumentals on that album are insanely good :) fuck any haters. A7X is awesome in every way.

[ThrashxTillxDeath97]

i for one am glad that a7x stop screaming. Their more mainstream stuff is 1. more musical 2. more talented 3. i dont think i would have every gotten into them if it wasnt for them going to a more radio friendly genre of metal

[94Cioppa]

I hate metalcore

[ZymanoKentaro]

@94Cioppa Metalcore Hates you too.

[BunnyFuzz666]

@94Cioppa STUPID CRACKER ASS BITCH! you have no taste in music

[94Cioppa]

@BunnyFuzz666 No, I love thrash, groove,speed and heavy metal but I hate this faggy emo screamy scrotchy stuff we're hearing now a days

[BunnyFuzz666]

@94Cioppa have you ever watched or heard nightmare?

[Dark256012]

@BunnyFuzz666 or god hates us



[BunnyFuzz666]

@Dark256012 yeh kid, you know your music, i like you already [=

[Dark256012]

@BunnyFuzz666 yay

[TheMotorCity2011]

@94Cioppa Why did you watch the video then?

[Xplotion287]

Well, I miss the screams from Waking The Fallen! Best album of all!

[MrPresident12345]

my god. I dont think that matt can scream. it seems like he dont have the ability. but so what? he still have an extremely cool and nice voice. 

[ChrisFedunLover]

@MrPresident12345 I saw avenged sevenfold live for the first time a couple days ago. He screamed alot in his own show, and it was all live. Being a professional singer, I watched his technique. HE SCREAMS. and it's him!

[GUITARMYofONE95]

4 people missed out on heaven in ear phones

[TheCamougirl3]

he can do both and still rock at em.!!!!! theres where da talents at.!! ;)

[xdeadxsympathyx]

FUCKING LOVE MATTIEEEE~

I think he has a beautiful voice in general. Love his screaming, but I loooooove his singing. I wouldn't mind being serenaded by that man. ;D

xD

[adjhd1]

[BooshkiiBomb123]

after screaming for so long your voice will turn that probably y he didnt want to do it

[PunkRockStarFilms]

[pierce1694]

He for sure can scream, and either way his singing voice is fucking awesome anyways!

[guitardude012345]

[annevictoria29]

[metaldrummer123123]

@TheMysterydude98 you dumb ass he did not wen they play songs that he has to scream in he does and it sounds like it should and besides who likes to scream it will eventually fuck up your throat

[Swissjar549]

[sevenfoldconfession]

[vampyuuki14]

[guitarmunky100]

[Mickeala94]

[avery94onabase]

this band fucking sucks

[MastahChief101]

@avery94onabase Your a fucking stupid little bitch.....A7X is a fucking great band. Its better than your fucking shitty ass music....

[avery94onabase]

@MastahChief101 hahahaha. what do you think i listen to? this band is fucking pathetic.

[RandomVideo1234567]

@avery94onabase fuk u they are awesome

[mrRambuk]

@avery94onabase haha why are you watching a video about m shadows then, hope you die in a vicious aids related accident

[frank1738rhcp]

no shit he can still scream

3 words god hates us

[TheUberGrundel]

Good I like them singing much better

:)

[strataxx]

what's that song in the background? it sounds familiar.

[llxxA7Xxxll]

@strataxx Strength of the World :)

[strataxx]

@llxxA7Xxxll yeah i found that out after watching this a second time haha. havent listened to that album in a long while.

[FenderAddict93]

"And all the BULLSHIT about him not able to scream anymore"

This only sentence without the full is just enough to schmaaaack the douches spreading the rumour.

[TheBrutalSGWarrior]

I respect A7X desitions... but i miss shadow's screaming :'(

[ThatLittleFunnyDude]

@TheBrutalSGWarrior He still does it sometimes... listen to "not ready to die"

[JudasPriest82]

I think Matt didnt want to scream because he couldnt scream anymore, because he couldnt take care of his voice, look at most of the 2004 performances he couldnt scream worth a shit.

[isabellaxrose]

i freaking love avenged sevenfold. its so good sometimes i catch myself almost crying with joy

[theoneandonlyzaira]

for my own opinion sound of the seventh trumpet was really sloppy and somewhat badly composed all around.. thank god avenged became what they become

[Corbind26]

Best A7X scremaing = Sounding the Seventh Trumpet

Amazing album

[ThatLittleFunnyDude]

@Corbind26 I am an avid A7X fan and I have been since "waking the fallen"... but that is definitly not their best album

[Corbind26]

@ThatLittleFunnyDude No, not their best album. Im talking the screams on it are better than the screams on any other album to me

[Deimtime]

I loved his screaming voice on STST/WTF, but I think he screams even better on "god hates us" and "not ready to die"

[KnowlesandFinn6270]

@Deimtime i agree i think his screams got more powerful as his voice got more power in it. you can tell difference in his voice also. either way i like all that he did

[imakissfan57]

exactly. even listen to the new song "not ready to die" it has awesome screaming in it

[BadAppleVideos]

fuck yeah!

i hate their first albums

self titled and Nightmare are soo much better

[richybeats]

@BadAppleVideos how can you hate waking the fallen? shoot yourself.

[richig761]

@BadAppleVideos Well then you're not an A7X fan.

[KnowlesandFinn6270]

@BadAppleVideos your not a fan sorry to say

[TheNorwegianEmo]

@BadAppleVideos

You're not a Sevenfold fan..

[inCYDable]

@BadAppleVideos dude nightmare is awesome and i know its your opinion but nightmare is their worst album sounding of the seventh trumpet may not be amazing but waking the fallen kicks ass

[AvengedSevenfold421]

for all you stupid mothafuckin haters-there you have it now go and jerk off in your mothers room

[13biscuet]

[XDrandomname]

[RmNaNtCbScRrn]

[pickleweazle141]

@masan3llo haha. we all know thats not true, your just trying to be a troll

[AdamWe234]

[jasoli52]

[walifacation25]

[KidNCState]

-Jimmy Sullivan "FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU, FUCK YOU, FUUUCK YOUUUUU

[MriLoveA7X]

@masan3llo haters like u make me feel like avenged sevenfold is even more popular because all good bands have haters!!!! So if u wanted to make us feel bad just say nothing!!!!!!

[legodude7744]

@masan3llo

[AdamWe234]

@masan3llo im sorry you feel that way

[jx0427]

@masan3llo ur little bitch ass needs to go to an insane asylum. A7X IS BETTER THAN JUSTIN BEAVER!!!!!!!!!!!  A7X IS MORE POPULAR. WHY DO YOU THINK JUSTIN'S VIDEOS HAVE MORE DISLIKES THAN LIKES? fuckin dumbass

[HusdalHusdal]

@jx0427 i have to disappoint you.. Justin Bieber is MUCH more popular than a7x.. only a dumbass would argue on that.. Avenged Sevenfold is my favorite band, and i love them. BUT they cant get compared to the biggest teen sensation of all time.. i has won 32 awards. He got shitload of fans..

[pollitostar611]

@jx0427 I HATE JUSTIN BIEBER!!!!

[TaniiaHoppus]

@masan3llo I´m gonna pretend that you didn´t say that and I´ll keep my life like any other sevenfolder..

[Ljthepunisher]

wow O.O

[masan3llo]

I would rather stick my head in justin biebers anus than listen to a singer who just shouts, if that is music, world really is going towards hairy butthole. And that female screaming (or "singing" as you say) sounds as horrible as pig what is being slaughtered.

[imbeavis123]

half screaming half singing and im good

[HarryMonsta18]

this is now proven by the new album where you can hear matts screaming has improved ten fold its fucking insane !

[DGT05PSP]

@HarryMonsta18 you mean it's improved sevenfold?

[alberca90]

@dungsitta well of course not shadows, his scream isn't all that great especially now that he had that surgery a while back, i'm not saying he's the best, i'm just saying that tearing up your vocal cords isn't what makes someone a hardcore screamer, there's more to it than most people think

[alberca90]

@dungsitta screaming in music isn't about killing your throat, people like you need to understand that screaming in music is just as much an art as singing is, it's not just screaming your lungs out and tearing up your throat, there's a technique that some of the best screamers out there use that doesn't tear up their throats because they know that they need to take care of themselves so that they don't lose their voices and have to get surgery

[Bradrox101]

actually he has acid reflex. try screaming with it, let alone talking. doesnt work to well

[shreddintheaxe]

they didn't sell out, the so called fans aka posers did. all their records are good. but his singing will alway's be better.

[iHaveNothingtoGein]

@dungsitta, if you think Chino Moreno is a hardcore screamer than you need to go home and do your scream homework, kiddo.

[FleshAndRazor]

@dungsitta OMG I accidentally thumbed up >_< Fuck you asshole...

[JackandRobu]

idolo!

[951AvengedSevenfold]

I love the band ! I like the screaming but I like it more when they don't scream !! They made a good change from Sounding the seventh trumpet to City of Evil '

[BlowMyHeadFast]

danm.....I feel like a dumbass now....THUMBS UP if you agree =D

[ConnorxNxKC]

Just because a band doesn't like to scream doesn't mean they aren't good. A7X is still heavy as shit and very talented. Sounding the Seventh Trumpet was a terrible album but all their others are fucking great.

[TheLimitOfHumanPain]

yea well even on Live @ The LBC he really didnt scream. They played songs that had specific screaming parts in them yet all he did was yell it or just sing it. So it just didnt sound right. If he can still scream then why didnt he do it at the LBC? And when i saw them live they played Waking The Fallen songs and he didnt scream..... So idk.

[woodythewoodchuck1]

@TheLimitOfHumanPain I saw them live and he screamed in critical acclaim god hates us afterlife and idk remember the rest.

[TheLimitOfHumanPain]

@woodythewoodchuck1 he yelled. He doesnt scream like he does on waking the fallen on sounding the seventh trumpet. I like Avenged Sevenfold but when they went to city of evil from waking the fallen they lost their balls and went WAAAY to mainstream. If i was them i would've never done that. But whatever.

[08dead08]

@TheLimitOfHumanPain

Mainstream killed a lot of my fave Bands =/

[TheLimitOfHumanPain]

@08dead08 exactly... it gets to there heads... Idk if Avenged will go that way or not.. They are pretty damn close if not already there.

[weirdd14]

that goes to show how stupid people r by making dumb rumors that aren't true.

[superarmguy]

@becauseiey

YES!! YES!!! You worded that perfectly. I could not have possibly said it better myself. You are a truth speaker. You are awesome.

[Chaz6993X]

They sold out. They saw that the mainstream didn't like screaming, so they quit doing it.
