Free Music Notes for Avenged Sevenfold
Free Music Review: Awesome!
Hit: 5 Stars
I think that this is a great album. Granted, at first, I was a little unsure of it because it is quite a bit different from past albums. But after listening to the whole album, I loved it. "Critical Acclaim" is an amazing song. The fact that they were able to not only write a political/patriotic song, is great. What's even better about it is that what they are trying to say is the truth, and I think most people would agree with it. The fact that they wrote it and wrote it extremely well is great. "Gunslinger" and "Dear God" are also amazing songs and two of my favorites. "A Little Piece of Heaven" is my absolute favorite on the entire album. It sounds completely different than anything that they've ever done, and I think it's a song that really stands out. Anyone that loved Avenged's past albums should love this one too.Free Music Review: some sick music
Hit: 5 Stars
The self titled album that avenged sevenfold put out was just awesome with it's cool orchestra in many songs and some wicked guitar playing. Previous albums by A7X were boring and similar, but this album really told a story in each song. and i would definetly recommend this album to anyone. BUY IT!!!!Free Music Review: They are the best

Read this first:
"For this self-titled release, the act returned to the garage at M. Shadows' parents' home where these high-school friends had penned every other song in their discography. The band sought to delve into genres and recording techniques they had discovered on the road. For instance, they wanted to incorporate the narrative lyrics and biting guitar tones they'd admired in country music, as well as the powerful bottom end of hip-hop they felt would only add to the power of their music and message.
"All those months on the bus we really weren't finding new rock that was moving us," says frontman M. Shadows. "Instead, we were listening to everything from Toby Keith to T.I., and finding elements we could incorporate into what we were doing to make our next record more interesting to us."'
This is a sign that A7x is more interested in playing music with a meaning plus new ideas rather than KanNiBU11 C0Rp3SseeE who keep churning in the same music with no plans other than learning how to kill old ladies. Anyway, listen up as I talk about A7x (who I classify as "real music") because not only do they continue most of what City of Evil offered, but continued the intensity with things that don't normally seem possible in metal (Bongos, a child's singing voice, a Danny Elfman inspired song similar to a Tim Burton flick, violins, organ, etc.) Trust me, if you are an A7x fan, you should listen to it and get to know s/t a little bit (for those sleeping under a rock, s/t means self-titled.) You are probably getting tired of hearing about whats in the album, so I should get on with the songs, which are all awesome.
S/t starts off with "Critical Acclaim", a rant pointed at self-rightious people and those who don't support the war in Iraq. At least not all rock is a bunch of liberal punks :P The mood of the album gets a lot tamer (the profanity has been seriously dropped but even a few songs are worthy of a sticker) with the upbeat "Almost Easy." From there, its full of energy that doesn't seem to slow down, at least until you get to Gunslinger, which has a Western intro. It may sound country-like, but there are a few tricks to that song, trust me. For the time being, you get metal, but it sorta stops with "A Little Piece of Heaven," but even without guitar solos or grinding guitars, its still fierce (its about forgiveness in a very weird sense but even I can't tell you what happens.) The mood slows down with the final but awesome conclusion, "Dear God". That song somehow touches me considering its from an angry metal band and how it was after a gripping Piece of Heaven.
Whether you like experimental albums or just want something other than your average melodic metal, pick this up. Seriously, you won't regret this unless you can't take bongos, a child's voice, violins, etc. In which case stop reading.

Many people have said this and i'll say it too,"this isn't the real a7x"and if you just started listening to them don't judge okay i mean i really miss their old stuff heavy metalcore was the way to do it.I'll rate this album like city of evil it only has three to four songs that are good others sound cool but na i don't know,oh yeah skip the country song man i mean come on seriously?i know they wanted to experiment but jesus really?well at least it's half rock too.This also deserves more than three stars cause even tough i hated when they stop screaming(only a few screams in city of evil and this one but nothing brutal)they are pretty good muscicans even if you hate everything about them you have to admit they are good.So just download the songs or something but what i like about them is they still have heavy sounds but who knows how their next album will be.M shadows said the first two albums were gonna be half screaming and half singing and the other two just singing,and for their next album it might be something totally different it might even dissapoint people who like their new stuff,just saying or probably still sound like THE NEW A7X NOT THE REAL AVENGED SEVENFOLD!
