Avenged Sevenfold - I won't see you tonight part 1 (Live in Ventura)

[@gabulbassauro]

2023 and this is still the best f*cking performance of Shadows. The vocals at the end are unbelievable

[@bellamybomb]

Shadows vocals were so raw and powerful, and he had an insane range while being able to maintain that raspy tone. All this without formal vocal training. That dude is amazingly talented. He got even better after working with Ron Anderson

[@RetrOchannel]

It's not that he's talented... he worked his ass off to get to where he was/is.

[@theragingfatwalrus2248]

@@RetrOchannel That's true. The guy is talented, but he became that way by practicing non-stop. He sounded terrible on the demo track they recorded before Sounding the Seventh Trumpet. You wouldn't expect him to become this a few years later. It's honestly incredible. He didn't even start really singing until some time in high school.

[@RetrOchannel]

@@theragingfatwalrus2248 Precisely. His non-scream voice was amazing. The clean and gritty voices he did in IWSYTP.1 is jawdropping, as well as throughout the record. The harmonies were so on-point too. It's quite the inspiration

[@ExternusArmy]

He has always had great pitch, but hard work forged his incredibly unique tone, timbre, and control. Listen to the 1999 demo tape and STST and compare his voice, it’s crazy. He works religiously to maintain his voice with a special diet, supplementing glycerine containing foods like licorice, not smoking and stopping his drug use and limiting alcohol, working with vocal coaches like Ron Anderson and ENT doctors.

[@martos60]

"All this without formal vocal training" Not really. You don't just get this good at vocal control and intonation with just talent. He did it with a lot of practice and live singing.

[@MegaJared2]

@@mikev2862 lol, so far away is dedicated to their best friend who died, and as someone who recently lost their best friend, I stand by my original comment. Go fuck yourself

[@The_JustJoshing]

Mike V I Won’t See You Tonight is about their original bassist, Justin Sane, attempting suicide. So Far Away is dedicated to The Rev. I would say that So Far Away is more emotional. Close bout though.

[@BeerRunBennyTheKid]

6:55 I think there are some live variations when The Rev would sing the high notes but this is all Matt. My goodness i wish he still sang it like this live. So amazing. I got to see them at the glasshouse and the House of Blues in 2003 and 2004. Went nuts at that part.

[@Colt2OO2]

Jimmy did actually help sing the higher notes in this one too because if you listen closely, you can just hear a higher voice behind Matt's during the bridge, which is obviously him since as a tenor he was able to reach much higher notes than Matt. Most of the time before he changed his vocal style, Matt sang it alone but yes Jimmy would occasionally sing the higher notes himself especially after City of Evil came out whenever they played this song.

[@lucas_toti13]

​@@Colt2OO2 Tenor or baritone does not define the range (at least for high notes, for lows it might define) because he have sooo many ways and techniques to reach high and super high notes, anyone can do it. Tenor simply tell wheter the voice is brighter or darker. But yeah the main vocal line is usually the lower or the mid one when the song has multiple vocals in different pitches, which helps saving energy for the singer (Matt) and since this entire band cand sing (let's not talk about Johnny), why not? And the vocals of CoE were so intense he has to save his voice by not singing higher notes in songs like this, so he can sing for the rest of the perfomance (which is REALLY hard, singing in studio is way easier).

[@triplej8666]

@@lucas_toti13 tenor does not mean brighter, its just in a higher place. the tessitura is higher than that of a baritone allowing for easier access to higher notes, its just genetics. Jimmy is light lyric tenor while matt was a baritone, for matt to be able to sing a Eb5 in mix voice is insane for a baritone

[@nippe923]

I hope this gets on spotify some day. Matts voice was so clean and angellike back then, and his scream was just on point. I actually prefer his vocals from back in the day. It's just such a blessing to be able to listen to this.

[@digimonlover1347]

Definitely THE BEST live version of this song. Mr. Shadow truly nailed it at the last part.

[@TheAeroshade]

Not going to lie, this is better than the studio version from all those years ago.

[@ExternusArmy]

Their live shows have always been better all throughout 1999-2012. I was at a show after CoE where they played this song where he sang the high harmony which he never does, and the hairs on every person neck was standing straight up. They fell off after Nightmare bc Shadows is naturally aging and his voice is too tired and injured after all these years to abuse it like when he was younger. It was really apparent during HttK, but they’ve actually been improving again since The Stage depending on how he’s feeling. He’s truly an amazing unique singer, on another level in his prime. It’s a shame we don’t have every live performance from City of Evil backwards.

[@Salvation-Damnation]

Some parts are indeed better, and some parts not.

[@NUKCYNDv]

@@ExternusArmy Actually, his voice was injured in 2003/2004 bc he had a very bad screaming(Not after Nightmare) after that he did a better job and trained a lot(CoE); with their performances in 2012-2017(mids) that were pretty awesome and even better than some older shows(For example, Afterlife, Gunslinger and even Second Heartbeat in which Matt does a better scream technique); that was because they were more technical, but they overcharged themselves, so Matt had another issue but this time not bc of bad technique, but bc he overworked.

[@MrWorld46]

M shadows has such an amazing vocals. He nails it every live performance and this one is just beautiful. All those long notes, fucking love them.

[@ekaprimaputra97]

[@flap3327]

Matt almost sounds like jimmy when he hits the high notes at the ending

[@MrRafa1919]

Cause it's a freaking D#5 he NAILED there. Super high, especially for a baritone. Such distortion and heavy mix... I cannot do it like Matt although I am a tenor. That's how amazing he was (and still is, of course).

[@Lyendith]

@@MrRafa1919 Wikipedia says he's a tenor… which is true? =[

[@MrRafa1919]
