Avenged Sevenfold ~ Life Is but a Dream

Well, it’s been a long wait - but I think it’s worth it. One thing people need to keep in mind with Avenged Sevenfold is that they’ve never shied away from experimenting with different styles. Even on their very first (and my least favourite) album, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet, they have three different tracks that stand out from the rest (don’t have M Shadows screaming) - and then, of course, one of those gets a bit more into familiar territory when Syn Gates joins in on lead guitar.

Each also is experimental and takes the band in a slightly different direction. Even though City of Evil, self-titled, Nightmare are probably the epitome of Avenged Sevenfold’s ‘classic sound’. I like those albums a lot, myself - and I even really enjoy some tracks from the much overlooked Diamonds in the Rough, as it wasn’t initially released as a stand-alone album. Almost Easy from self-titled is one of my top three Avenged Sevenfold favourites.

Now here is the part where I seem to be in the minority. Hail to the King is actually my favourite album from Avenged Sevenfold. I don’t necessarily like the slower tracks on that album, but that’s typically because I tend to gravitate towards uptempo in my music in general. From that album, Requiem is the second of my top three Avenged Sevenfold favourites. Other tracks I love from that album are Doing Time, This Means War, Coming Home, and Planets. This is the only full-length album to feature Arin Ilejay on drums.

Then there’s The Stage, the first of two (to date) albums to feature the current drummer, Brooks Wackerman. While it isn’t the first time Avenged Sevenfold went progressive, this is certainly the first time they went out.

Then, finally, their latest release: Life Is but a Dream! We were treated to two tracks before the album’s release. I prefer Nobody to We Love You, even though both songs took awhile to grow on me. Of the other releases... my favourite, by far, is Easier! And, thus, is the third of my top three Avenged Sevenfold favourites.

I’ve always wanted to hear Avenged Sevenfold use a harmonica in their music, and it looks like we finally got that wish. There appears to be a fairly prominent harmonica at the beginning of Cosmos, a song that is quickly growing on me. And then, at the end of Easier, there appears to be a subtle harmonica. As I said earlier, I tend to prefer the uptempo songs - so Easier is the clear winner.

So, in the respect of passion and a willingness to experiment, Avenged Sevenfold might be a lot like Led Zeppelin (minus the stealing from blues artists). So, even if the new album might not necessarily be your cup of tea, you must respect the passion and dedication that Avenged Sevenfold put into this album.

Avenged Sevenfold rocks!! \m/

idk much abt a7x, but i wld like to hear abt u fave song/album :)

AAA YESSS

Tysm for this ask, they are my favorite band of all time and I love talking about them sm <33

My favorite album by A7X is a three way tie between Waking The Fallen, City Of Evil, and Self-Titled, each album has such a unique and distinct sound it's nearly impossible for me to choose which album I like best lol

Waking The Fallen is straight up metalcore, with definitely a lot of punk influences and some classic 80s metal- it's a pretty straight forward and well rounded album for it being their 2nd album, a lot cleaner and more focused than their first album Sounding Of The Seventh Trumpet- probably because Syn joined the band around this time and he definitely has a very clean and distinct way he writes and plays the guitar, he's really organized lol. My favorite song off of that album is either Unholy Confessions (the guitar solo 💓💓) or Eternal Rest, which is extremely fast and one of the more punk driven songs off that album

City Of Evil is their 3rd album and has a really big hard rock/classic metal vibe to it, the harmonies and heaviness of WTF is consistent, but it's not as punk driven. Lots of very crazy and very fast drum tracks which I adore listening to- The Rev is SUCH a talented drummer and I really hope I can play like he does one day. Syn and Zacky are fucking brilliant on this album, they're great on every album, but this one especially, y'know? They really pushed themselves with this album, it's so articulated and so well rounded, and is definitely a big leap from WTF. My favorite song off of this album is Bat Country without a doubt, that song is nuts from start to finish, and I love it so much!!

Self-Titled is their 4th album, and doesn't really have a set sound- it's metal, mostly, but they really just branch off and play around with this one, even writing a country-ish song, Dear God, which even then still has some metal influences in it. It's definitely an experimental album, they found their sound in COE and went "Alright, we went pretty far, how much farther can we still go?". Not one song on this album is the same, from having straight thrashers and head bangers like Almost Easy, to A Little Piece Of Heaven, which has a really big Tim Burton/Danny Elfman feel to it, and then you have Unbound (The Wild Ride) which, as Syn put it, "is a magic carpet ride.". This album is so over the place, and it's the album that got me into A7X, so it has such a special place in my heart. My favorite song off of that album is either Scream (it's such a vibe, I've always loved heavy songs that still have a nice groove to em) or A Little Piece Of Heaven (that song is crazy bonkers + it's the first ever song I heard by em, so bias lol)

Tysm again for this ask, sorry if I rambled for a bit too long, A7X has helped me so much throughout my life and I love them endlessly- their new album is supposed to come out either end of 2022 or early 2023 and I am so excited to hear it, and maybe even see em on tour!!

<33
