Much better than people give them credit for. They can actually PLAY. How so many people can despise Avenged Sevenfold and love stuff like Dragonforce blows my mind and makes me ill.

IMO, dragonforce is a joke. I hate how "Through the Fire and the Flames" is the "boss song" in GH3. Anyways, A7X. Isn't that the band where every member is a christian, and they say that they can't stand it when people push religion onto other people? Don't get me wrong, i'm a christian too, i'm just asking a question about the band. From what i've heard by them (4 or 5 songs), i don't care for the band. How would you classify the band, hard rock, metal, what? I know most people here think i have bad musical taste, but A7X just isn't my cup of tea from what i've heard by them.

There are a lot of biblical references in some of their songs, and even the band name, but I wouldn't go as far as saying they are a "Christian band."
The only song even remotely Christian sounding is "Dear God" off of the new album, and regardless of what its about, or what the words say, its a great song.

Not a fan, at all.
I hate screaming in music, not my genre. I've heard a ton of thier songs, and enjoy maybe 3 of them.

I don't think they deserve all the crap they get, "TheY s0ld out!!!!!11" First of all, Matt's vocals chords were damaged by screaming, second of all even songs on their first album sound like the same style and their most recent one. "Streets" for example.

Yea I do not hate them but it all sounds the same after 2 minutes. It just got really stupid after awhile. Killswitch was in amazing though as always.

I think sevenfold is a bit excessive for vengeance. Three or fourfold would be more than enough.

I usually like my vengeance tenfold.
Those who say "all of their songs sound the same" obviously haven't heard the new album, because there are no two tracks on that record that sound anything alike.

Don't really care, if a song of theres is on the radio I won't turn it off, but I wouldn't bother finding one of their albums out.

I know Im gonna get bashed because I like Slipknot, but A7X suck. They are horrible musicians, by that I mean all they can do is look good on stage with the make up and painted nails and do stupid guitar doodles.

I like my metal with good, talented singers. Danzig, Type O, Megadeth, Fear Factory (old) just to name a few. I voted sucks.

I am sorry you feel that way but I got to disagree on the musicians part, the rev is one of the best drummers out there and syn is a great guitar player especially considering how young he is.

I have trouble too lining up the titles with the songs, they do sound very similar. Killswitch did play a good set though.
