Avenged Sevenfold - Chapter Four (Rock on the Range 2009)

Rock on the Range, 2009
I apologize in advance, you can hear me singing along in some of the video (luckily I can sing worth a damn, so it isn't obnoxious.)

[@RNOblivion]

I love how The Rev never plays the same song live in the same way twice. Every single variation is a goddamn gem!

[@Xtremecarfan10188]

Old comment but but thats how you can tell legendary professional drummers. They can follow the structure but they have so much repertoire that they can just improvise whenever they want. Alot of drummers will try to focus on playing everything the same exact way without improvisation which is still fine considering the whole point of a drummer is timekeeping. The Rev is legendary!

[@euphegenia]

RNOblivion only other drummer I’ve known to do that is Jon Fishnan from Phish. But I’m assuming if you’re an A7X fan, you probably don’t like Phish. Fishman is insanely good.

[@Xtremecarfan10188]

@@euphegenia I was literally introduced to Phish like 5 days ago. Idk the name of the Genre but its like Funk Indie Fusion 😂

[@Redh0und]

i can tell you from experience that it gets extremely boring to play whatever you wrote in a studio every night over and over again

[@dylannavarro6283]

This was the Rev's last show in America :(

[@pablobomgiorno8273]

It was in Sonisphere 2009

[@uriahthewizard]

Pablo Bomgiorno That’s why he said America. Sonisphere was his last show, but in a different country.

This has got to be my favorite performance of "Chapter Four" on KZbin. Everybody is on top of their game, especially Matt. His voice here is just the best it has ever sounded. These days he is really struggling with his screaming, which is more of a shout at this point. His screaming here is really powerful and his voice was still full of rasp.

[@americanmetalhead7318]

SkorpionPlays if he didn’t change it he wouldn’t be able to sing in 5 years time

[@immortalvenerable]

Agree with the screaming part!

[@hazardgaminghg122]

He can still scream

[@alexanderhayward8505]

@@hazardgaminghg122 no, man, he can't.

[@DeXobas]

@@alexanderhayward8505 Yeah he can, listen to Paradigm from The Stage

[@crispyarturo6880]

Look how happy the whole band looks, especially Syn and Matt. Man and like after they lost the Rev, they just look so sad like especially Syn in the So Far Away video and Shepherd of Fire. Makes me feel for them. And then I hate when interviewers bring up the Rev constantly and you can see the pain in their eyes. foREVer🤘

[@bousculade1035]

I feel like they finally managed to kinda get over it. They were definitely searching how to do new music since they lost The Rev and I think that Nightmare shows how they first felt about it and that Hail To The King was just a mess that reflects the fact that they were just completely lost at that time, not only as musicians but also as individuals. However, The Stage is in a totally new (and really good) style, and I'm sure it's because they finally got over it and therefore are able to be more productive.

[@lidiatorres1908]

@@bousculade1035 Jimmy participated in the creation of the nightmare. I think the stage is the first job where they seem to have found a direction in how to create music after his death.

[@JudasPriest82]

@@bousculade1035 yeah but one fucking look at them you could totally tell they were doing speed heavily except Shadows, he still looks healthy till this day Syn, Zacky and Johnny all look dark and depressed they’re looks changed rapidly those 2-3 years after the Rev died, Back then I didn’t understand it and I knocked them heavily for it but now years I get it, Jimmy’s death shocked the world, I mean everybody was looking at them they had a lot of publicity and gained so many new fans from 10’-12’ they had no choice but to show everyone they could come back and still have it in them and keep that momentum and that fire going , with a heavy touring schedule to it was no longer a let’s be young, play out music, have fun and party every like it was from 04’-09’, they had now had a undeniable reason they had to keep going, and that’s the only way if you’re going to survive after something like that happens to you, they were the perfect band, flawless in every way, why did that have to happen to them, 4 albums just wasn’t enough

[@TheGoldenConnorific]

​@bousculade1035 I think Hail to the King is still good but it was definitely experimental but I guess you can say that about all their albums lol

Dude listen to all those improvised fills the rev does, some of them are pure fucking genius. Its no bullshit when I say, Ive missed the rev everyday since the day he died. I cant stop thinking about it a year and a half after he died, I can only imagine what the band is going through to this day.

@Dryftburn they will be at uproar this year, they took 20 songs the fans voted on and will rotate the set list every night. Some of the songs are this, second heartbeat, lost, not ready to die, dancing dead, crossroads, I wont see you tonight pt 1, afterlife, gunslinger, a little piece of heaven, bromptin cocktail, unholy confessions, and a few more. Def gonna be an awesome tour!!!!

[@Matt-dv9mf]

It annoys me that Matt always sings "look to the sky where have you gone?" live and not the original lyrics "where has he gone what have you done?"

[@piolorock]

"Chapter Four" Give me your hand, (Conceived and born was one of light) blood is spilt and man will follow infernal man, (Rain and dark, the other born black night) punishment too great to bear Raise your head and taste the courage (the one of light) Fall from grace, unholy night I've come here to kill you, won't leave until you've died Murder born of vengeance, I closed my brothers eyes tonight... [Repeat from the beginning] It's cold tonight as the clouds turn grey and from my hands to my brothers grave You took his side, you took his gift, feel the power of a fallen man, crestfallen man... Far away in this land I must go, out of the sight of the One. A punishment sent from His hand a hardship that no one should know Now go out of the sight of the One, away in this land you must go. Where has he gone? What have you done? A voice commands from high above this earth. From the soil his blood cries out to me Murder, liar, vengeance, deceit. Far away in this land I must go, out of the sight of the One. A punishment sent from His hand a hardship that no one should know Now go out of the sight of the One, away in this land you must go. [Fade out]

[@pinkshift6369]

I was there..but I had to leave..I drove all the way to ohio just to see avenged sevenfold..since theyre my favorite band..and I didn't even get to see them..I just watched this video and literally started crying.

[@AdamSusskind]

@maplepop I could be wrong, but I think he was doing what Mike Portnoy does, which is to have a double-bass set up and a double-pedal setup next to each other. He doesn't play both at once, but can switch back and forth.

[@FenderMetalShredder]

As soon as I read the description, I thought "Ah crap, another annoying video that you can ONLY hear the guy recording." I can still hear the band, and thank God you can actually sing.
