[High quality] Avenged Sevenfold - Critical Acclaim live at Graspop 2008 with interview [HQ]

[frogmupo]

Im a hugh a7x fan but shaddows and jonny look kinda gay

[DeadGoldBass]

wtf, Grospop is in belgium and belgium is french, not spanish wtf is wrong with that bitch

[pinkyandthesheep]

Jimmy at 0:44!

[mcdonalds773]

Thumbs up for the rev 0:43 - 0:47 :D

[GoLDraG0N]

0:46 ITS THE REEEEEEV

[Devraneshka]

What's this stupid interviewer saying about girls and metal being a strange combination? Just cause you like Justin Bieber doesn't mean no girls out there have a well-functioning auditory system, bitch!

[Iareorgasm]

@Devraneshka Your comment is full of so much win xD

[Devraneshka]

@Iareorgasm thanks XD That comment made me angry... she's basically trying to say that people like me would't like A7X if the guys weren't good-looking, and that pissed me off... I didn't even realize I liked Syn & Matt until I saw them in Dear God dammit!

[Iareorgasm]

@Devraneshka I know right!? the music is what counts but the fact they happen to be good looking is just a bonus we're lucky enough to have xD

[Devraneshka]

@Iareorgasm exactly! Saying we girls like them cause of their looks is just an insult to the band's music!

[zapdall]

THERE! Gates says it: "I don't really think we are much of a metal band. I think we are kind of cross the boards." There! There goes haters biggest argument about this great band!

[samuriguy909]

4:45. LMAO

[myself5661]

They're awesome!

[chocochick247]

I squealed when i saw syn and zacky singing their one-line part. ^_^

[Skitty433]

Ahh! I squealed with happiness when Jimmy walked by-3

[ThatAJLaVa]

Syn effin' Gates! <3

[thesixoffire]

to bad i wasnt a really metal fan that year,and i live in dessel (place of graspop)

[HunterGz89]

Tath beer makes something to Syn :s

[HunterGz89]

Put video on 0:00 press 8... Matt Fap?

[mayorbee11]

0:39 sounds like matt laughing

[Jodveuk]

gates and zacky sound like robot :D love it!

[MultiElCrAzY]

anyone saw the Rev at 0:44??

[RaaaawrProductions]

Kiss aint metal.

[Aorzz3]

the camera didnt catch on the rev :(

[BFMVxMTrenchhx4Evaa]

Zacky- "Let's be honest, we're handsome guys..."

LOLOLOL.

[SynysterrSevenfold]

the rev walks past at 0:44 :)

[stalionduckfoREVer]

@pazzo021 if im correct this show was after they had a show with a bad sound check and he trows his guitar to the ground but he likes it so tapes and uses you can find the find of it on here somewhere just lookup a7x bad soundcheck

[LightningRix98]

4:45 SYN forgot his lyrics? TAHELL?! He makes it so much better :D

[pazzo021]

what happen to syn's guitar? O_o

[frozenfarm]

6:23 zacky fuck up

[xxlindseyann92xx]

@sinbysin666 you're obviously not familiar with their other music. Waking the fallen was heavy.. Metal I guess you could say, with like one ballad. Next album, city of evil, no screaming, all singing and full of dueling guitars. Self-titled album has influences everywhere from country (dear god) to hip hop (scream.) and nightmare is kind of all over the place too. Goes from god hates us to something like tonight the world dies. So yeah, I'm gonna agree with Syn. I don't consider myself a metal

[sinbysin666]

I like how he says he doesn't consider them a Metal band, and they cross genres 'n' shit. But when they start playing, it's the most generic, cookie cutter Metal music.

[sgtmeadowsman]

lol 0:43 "Jimmy get out of te camera it's zacky and syns turn share now

[Ru1eBritannia]

Why does Syn have what looks like tape on his guitar lol?

Zakky's guitar looks way better in this vid :p

[Cobhc951]

00:58 "we have better beer but anyway", NO WAY maes is the best

[Krinordh]

[LoyalKnightofOrion]

Why's there tape on syn's guitar? 

[CarrieStifler]

I love when Zacky said "Mas" (I don't know how it's written) :3

[rajmas1]

[LPglennLP]

0:45 JIMMY!! THE REV!! SULLIVAN!!

[prlacrosse95]

Why does M. Shadows not sing 2 parts of the song?

[guitarrhythymfool]

@prlacrosse95 Cuz Jimmy sang those parts on the album. So Jimmy's singing them live.

[cashiitj]

@guitarrhythymfool "maes" ;)

[guitarrhythymfool]

[relocoman180]

[Metalicious94]

[MrAntiXofficial]

@Metalicious94 That wasnt him messing up that was his guitar sound going out, believe me ive experienced it and it sucks but all you can do is keep playing.

[ShilonkleDinger69]

@Metalicious94 Wow, sounds like you secretly wanna be him or suck his dick

[b0xninja]

@ShilonkleDinger69 seems like YOU wanna suck his dick..

[kayo118282]

[Jord3W]

[YOUBOOBER12]

[YOUBOOBER12]

[LongTermLiesmusic]

@YOUBOOBER12 the rev plays drums and sings like a boss. im a drummer, i give mad props. i can screamo scream like a boss, but i cant do it and play at all. and he could. he was JESUS

[YOUBOOBER12]

@LongTermLiesmusic why are you telling me this, im aware that the rev is aweomse xD

[james12436]

@Andreprime1000 "ive had enough its time for something real, dont respect the words your singing gone to far, a clone".....best bit

[XXZippo66XX]

Damn!! idk how jimmy plays drums and sings at the same time!! :D badass!!!

A7X all the way!!!!

R.I.P Rev :(

[JT210794]

que tiene la guitarra de syn?¨D: 

[ryomoncalieri]

what syn get from the other table??

[paszinho]

lol metal is one of the hardest to play both on the drums and on the guitar and surely it's so hard to sing like that in my opinion, fck they just do it perfectly:)

[natasha39911]

0:59 It's mine! yumiiiii yumiiii ;D

[gman1422]

johnny barely touches his bass when they play liveXD no doubt christ doesnt need to use his hands to play bass

[BrandonJamesH]

No other band can ever match the authentic, overwhelming energy in a live setting the way Avenged Sevenfold can. Most bands disappoint or simply meet your expectations, while Avenged Sevenfold blows your expectations out of proportions making an instant addict out of the viewer. I remember distinctively the first time I watched Critical Acclaim live. My heart rate exploded to the momentum as if I were jogging, and I literally broke a sweat. Never would I think that possible. To the Hall of Fame.

[Metallicaftwish]

Man... the rev fucking rocked<3

[MrPretzelStickz]

just when you think a7x can't get better, you go to a concert

[XxXLittleGothGirlXxX]

0:44

Effing Jimmy! Walking in the back! xDD

[nobama7]

Man or not, anyone with a brain should be turned on by M. Shadows scream!

[iDillaTech]

I diden't see the rev in that video once apart from in the background :(

[emellylop]

synyster gates only understood a little bit of what she said

[a7xgustav0]

the rev ...just the best voice

[Usgah]

Zacky is so fucking funnyxD

[confusion9832]

0:44

ohai jimmy:D

[TheXervex]

They are focking aweosme live!

[TheXervex]

@TheXervex awesome >.<

[mrmerino101]

Zacky trying to speak German. Lol. Zacky and Jimmy were my favorite members.

Look guys, let's face facts: they are one of my favorite bands, and they have a lot of awesome songs, but they are just laughably terrible live.

[bassisnevertooloud96]

@mrmerino101 false

[GoLDraG0N]

@mrmerino101 nah thats just you beeing a troll like always, Dude fuck off, get a life >.> if your gonna insult them, then you should just fuck off, we dont have time to waste on freaking trolls like you in every fucking video!

[mrmerino101]

@GoLDraG0N I just like how you instantly went to calling me a troll. It's funny because it shows how much our society has devolved to the point where the knee-jerk reaction to stumbling upon an opinion that doesn't suit yours is to go "HAY YOU TROLL". Despite your best(?) insults, I do have a life, and it does not involve mercilessly attacking commenters with differing opinion (that's you). Now, before you trip over yourself trying to reply to me, just know that I am not insulting....

[mrmerino101]

@GoLDraG0N Avenged Sevenfold as a band; they do have some of my favorite songs. The only problem is, if you're going to do something in the studio, you better have a way to do it live. Otherwise... well, you end up at an Avenged Sevenfold concert.

Also, what the hell is with "beeing a troll like always"? Since when do I troll enough to have that kind of reputation? Go home, you're drunk.

[cammy6754]

@mrmerino101 wtf u talking about they are awesome live

[Parkwaydrive435]

@mrmerino101 u obviously have never seen them live

[goalkeepin4life]

johnny haz no mohawk D':

[subvendrix]

do you like it? ah i love it it is mice mees.....mass

[rikroony]

whahaha I was there great REV we miss you foREVer

[YanaDolzhenko]

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! ... R.I.P. The Rev.

[GLPMV95]

5:17 The awesomeness fucked up the camera :D

[GLPMV95]

Oh my god I love these guys ♥

[3BlackStripes]

I can't hear SYN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrAsymmetriphobia]

THERE IS A USER NAMED ZMETALPUDDING WHO IS WORSHIPPING REVS DEATH GO AND FLAG HIM DOWN NOW!

[killianshows]

@MrAsymmetriphobia i flaged himm

[Bertj852]

@IVIVP7Productions24

Between 40,000 and 50,000.

There were 2 stages playing though at that time and probably some at camping too so I'd guess around 25,000 at this concert. I was front row on this ;-).

[JustMyOwnGames]

@IVIVP7Productions24 Its really big in Belgium so probably allot

[tadoako163]

miss this voice 3:56..

[ajda7xfoREVer]

what happend to syn's guitar ? o.O

[wolfthing11]

thumbs up if you noticed the person with blonde hair in the audience

[989jer]

They barely even showed The Rev, even when he was signing! R.I.P. Jimmy \m/(>.<)\m/  One of my favorite songs

[cofiddle]

Hahaha matt had a stoopid laugh

[prlacrosse95]

Y doesn't m shadows skip the parts of the song and just says hey over and over again?

[Ultraxsiempre]

@prlacrosse95 because he wants to involve the crowd. Nothing more fun than fistpumping with everyone and yelling. But the true reason is that he probably never learned the words that he says on that part of the song. Besides that part is not really an important part of the song singing wise, at least live that is.

[TheBloodyFreak]

Lol in Holland I Live there XD I wish i could be there... ._.

[ajes7fold]

this cameraman noob



[Ryuuku0]

why no camera on the rev?

[DarkestDivide]

Syn is the pinnacle of Beast blood.

[HallowedSauce]

So unfortunate that band members of metal bands only begin to get respect once they die, same happened with Paul Grey :/ in this video you see that the Rev hardly gets shown on the camera, even during his vocal solo's. But anyways this is so sick, would love to these guys live.

[ryanfourfive]

i started this thinking it was a 2011 interview and when the rev walked by my heart dropped

[foREVer3661]

@ryanfourfive hahaha :D

[BePositivee]

HQ isnt 480p rtard

[BluBraid81]

please tell me that's not duct tape on syn's guitar ..

[syn29a7x]

I love this band! rock in peace The REV!

[xXMajorDoucheXx]

0:44 haha jimmy is like "Shit i gotta get outta here, ohh a pub!"

[MLGWrekz]

6:21 Who else noticed Syn's expression?

[MLGWrekz]

So what's your Secret?

Syn: "Long and Lean"

Zacky: "I think our secret is that our hair is really short, so we have many years to grow it."

...looks like someone had a few beers before the interview.

[Chun9KrinX28MeTaLL]

6:21 Fail...

[Chun9KrinX28MeTaLL]

0:43 RIP James Owen Sullivan.. foREVer..

[LostMemory002]

Then need a new bass player

[pepetopf]

i miss you jimmy(l)

R.I.P :(

thumbs up :T

[R0gerDaniel]

Bring back WTF and COE! "Like" on Facebook and vote for these if you think these songs would sound phenomenal live, along with Chapter Four, Eternal Rest, MIA, Sidewinder, Second Heart Beat The Wicked End and more!!

[css870621345]

Is this when Jimmy was pepper sprayed and didn't wash so it all just ran down into his eyes?  'cause you can see the pain in his face at about 4:23... :L

[callofmygun1]

@css870621345 i heard that story to in the interview

it was also in holland , i can be that moment , but i don"t think it is

[hellohafiz]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU REV !

[TheMetalofilia]

"to be honest we are handsome guys" ruined all the syn words with full fucking truth

[TheMetalofilia]

0:44 a legend walked behind that bitch

[jacaria21]

Haha, I love Syn and Zacky during the interview! And the Critical Acclaim performance was amazing! I can't fathom being able to drum and sing the way Jimmy did - that guy was incredible!!! And of course, Matt, Syn, Zacky, and Johnny were awesome as well! :D

[Rocklvr76]

WTF is going on w/ syn? First the "Meaa" as CMacphearson puts it... & then you hear him over Matt around 5:40 mark.... Did someone piss off one of the sound guys?

[koeienmeid]

@Rocklvr76 It's because his voice is sexy

[lilscrimpy113]

i think a ghost walk behind them at :45

[92snapple]

they would laugh when they ask what is your secrect lol



[ammie444]

0:45 Rev walks by :D

[MrWolfboy234]

[NWHprodutions]

@MrWolfboy234 what if u miss 1?

[nigelrosie]

[joondoggy]

Whats up with syns guitar? Some of the pimp stripes are blacked out!

[Rocklvr76]

@joondoggy Different Guitar... 1 is all pimpstripe & this one is half with details in it.

[Rocklvr76]

@Rocklvr76 Oops Sorry got a better look at the guitar..

Maybe he was getting some glare on the guitar so he put the tape on. I've seen it done before.

[LostMemory002]

@bbiksheridan true true

[LostMemory002]

the guitar guys suck at singing lol

[69jhay69]

0:45 Thumbs up if you miss the rev <3

[avengedfanbase]

[rez710]

[101point5TMG]

@rez710 pshh....its magenta...lmao



[datpinkzeppelin]

It's mace hah

[echosound656]

great performance! i only hate it when the camera men doesnt get a shot of jimmy when he is singin

[dabadguy4273]

WHAT HAPPENED TO SHADOW'S HAIR!!??!!??  O.O

[thabryanbays]

aaaahahaha no pickguard on a syn so he put tape! haha

[Ptguitarist331]

@thabryanbays Actually I'm pretty sure that that guitar got damaged in shipping or the sustainiac in the neck position wasn't installed properly which is why theres tape on the guitar haha.

[thabryanbays]

@Ptguitarist331 oh yeah maybe that makes sense too. but i mean i doubt he would play a damaged guitar tho i mean he's probably got 5 more backstage

[iEnragedPotato]

Amazing how Rev can sing like that and play without even looking. Amazing talent <3

[iEnragedPotato]

I <3 you REV!
