Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare REACTION! REALLY A NIGHTMARE

[@eldiego68]

This video is has some callbacks to the “Afterlife” video. The spider by itself without the Rev, Zacky dancing with the skeleton instead of his girl...

[@staystrongjoseph]

Been a fan of a7x for 8 years and i never knew that lol Thanks man!

[@lexiwexiwoo]

This was after they lost a band member, right?

[@CariHelstrom]

@@lexiwexiwoo duh

[@arthurbarbosadelira7505]

Also the colors. In afterlife, It is black and changes to white in Chorus, and in this Nightmare, It is mainly white, then changes to black, just the opposite

[@goat7517]

why is Zacky dancing with a skeleton?

[@adamzimmerman1757]

I find it hilarious that almost everyone commenting is giving out ideas for another A7X reaction which would be cool but at the same time... Did no one else notice how much Billy was into the song??? I dont even think he knows it but hes a metal head and he just dont know it. A7X Forever! 🔥🔥✊✊

[@jayc9345]

Avenged Sevenfold "This Means War" (veteran reacts)

[@StevieG333666999]

This video is an homage to James "The Rev" Sullivan, the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold that passed away during the recording of the album this song was on, with references to some of his parts from other music videos and the video itself being inspired by the movie Jacob's Ladder, one of The Rev's favourite movies, and features the last drumkit he'd toured with at the end.

[@apollobunny3904]

I was searching in the comments section to make sure at least one person knew...Billy asking if it was an insane asylum made me on the edge of tears as that was rev's life in a nutshell...

[@BeccaBearSc]

@@apollobunny3904 Jimmy was insane in the most wonderful way.... Val said it best.

[@danwest9900]

That's sad about Mr. Sullivan. I didn't know that until today. Well, this song sure highlights some of the glories of drumming. Respect!

[@shaxow1142]

I can think of someone else who almost died to a Jacobs ladder

[@xerodelacroix5552]

This song isn't literally about evil, it's about mental health "professionals". The video is based on the movie Jacob's Ladder, which was The Rev's favorite movie. This was their first video after he died, hence the broken drum kits with his pet tarantula crawling on them and his final kit in the room at the end.

[@kenwelch198]

Still remember the first time I heard this song. Blew my mind! They became one of my favorite bands overnight.

[@manipreferchicken4083]

MORE AVENGED!!! Also if you happen to react to avenged sevenfold, refrain from reacting to the official music videos as they cut out some of the best parts of the songs to shorten it for the radio. Dope video bro.

[@javiertavera748]

Avenged sevenfold - afterlife you'll love it

[@laciesmith2962]

RIP Rev, I can't help but think of him everytime I hear a song from this album, he took his own life before it was finished

[@anazarethpendragon308]

React to "The Stage" and "batcountry" Avenged Sevenfold Nightmare is sick what a fckin great song

[@Pinkranger110802]

This just made me realize that as many times as i've heard this song and it's been a lot i've actually never seen this music video before.

[@erikborlund5696]

(Veteran Reacts) Avenged Sevenfold - “M.I.A.” Would love your perspective on this song from one vet to another. Great song with a powerful message

[@derrickheintz8833]

Fit for a king - "When Everything means Nothing" or "The price of Agony"

[@ThePriorityAlpha]

This was the album they were working on when "The Rev", their drummer died.. :'(

[@ThePriorityAlpha]

I remember the day it happened actually, my roommate woke me up damn near in tears.. letting me know what happened. I didnt get it at the time because I didnt listen to much music.. but look back, what a damn tragedy.. to lose someone so amazingly talented..and he was the screamer in their earlier stuff too

[@ccampbell0782]

#BILLSMAFIA i have watched this music video numerous times and that is the first time i can recall seeing the empty drum kit at the end for Rev......so glad he was able to get his drums part written for this album before passing. RIP REV.

[@gonein602009]

Yes finally! More Avenged Sevenfold! One of my favorites! The Stage, Bat Country, Afterlife, Almost Easy, Hail to the King, Coming Home, all greats and many more.

[@janbjerregaard7575]

Some great music coming out of America! i rock out to Avenged Sevenfold everywhere i drive to

[@akarbit3r111]

Fav A7X song, although honestly this whole album is pretty solid. As far as the guitar goes, good ol' Mr. Gates is VERY good at what he does

[@alicialanham1498]

Billy your reaction to the guitar solo is exactly why I love synyster gates. Also if you think this video is creepy it’s nothing compared to a little piece of heaven. That’s a good Halloween song.

[@Teeezze]

You gotta see this live. They put on a great show! I saw them a few years ago with Disturbed, Stone Sour and Halestorm...killer lineup.

[@DarkLawYGO]

The video for this song was inspired by Jacobs Ladder. Reves favorite movie. This was made not long after his passing.

[@catawba65]

Instruments are killing it......rocking outside of their mind. AV7 is best of rockers today.

[@marchendrickson2382]

This is an amazing song, even more so when you realize it's purpose...reflecting on the very end of Rev's battle with addiction. He should have known the cost of evil...a sad but very powerful truth here

[@thedirtytoaster]

Definitely listen to “A Little Piece of Heaven”

[@awesomesauce1715]

Your going to scare him away

[@chrisjericho9632]

He already reacted to this.

[@davidharney6474]

Do seize the day by them

[@gabeackerman4964]

Yes!

[@teamgodmode7197]

Welcome to the lyrical genius and amazing voice of M. Shadows. They were supposed to be swinging through Utah last year on tour but had to cancel because he had something messed up with his vocal chords. Hope they come through again at some point

[@BrainsAndBeats_]

Perfect halloween song: A Little Piece of Heaven by Avenged Sevenfold. Very creepy

[@dylanholman3]

Cameron Rosen already did it

[@Eowyn187]

@@dylanholman3 I can't find it

[@dylanholman3]

kj robbi it’s in a trio video with Cole Swindell and drop kick Murphy. It doesn’t say the song names just the artists, he posted it like four months ago

[@dylanholman3]

Hell yea! I’m glad you did this one. This was actually one of the few I was debating between to request this month. A7X is one of my favorite bands.

[@sombergirl2886]

The reason why you see the empty drum kit at the end was cuz The Rev had died & they were having a moment of silence for him. Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater fame played the drums in the song & he killed it

[@danwest9900]

Sounds like the drummer is ripping some triplet patterns on the kick-drum! That and more - excellent tom and double kick-drum patterns - so tight! The whole band shreds - they seem like a kind of punk rock version of Iron Maiden to me with the epic solos and the powerful, anthem heavy lead vocals. Love these guys!

[@TEXAS_SKOLDIER]

How abooouuttt “Dance with the devil” by Breaking Benjamin 🤘🏻

[@damonbryan7232]

R I P REV. Happy for no more pain. Unfortunately gone to soon.

[@jimjam87599]

Danger line you'll like it with the military background

[@cheflaboogie7449]

Also MIA

[@robertshulenberger]

I love this song but this is the first time I've ever seen this video.. Welcome to the Insane Asylum My absolute favorite Avenged Sevenfold song though is "Bat Country." I certainly recommend that one

[@laciesmith2962]

My favorite song by them is buried alive. My 2nd happens to be this means war. However I'd really LOVE to see your reaction to their song far away, a tribute to their drummer

[@HELLSPAWN6660]

Avenged sevenfold “a little piece of heaven”

[@dylanholman3]

Anybody RELLIK he already did that one

[@HELLSPAWN6660]

Dylan Holman oh. cool thanks

[@fishtankaddictsanonymous3995]

Definitely one of the best songs

[@omishka98]

Avenged sevenfold " welcome to the family" because I noticed you liked the guitar in this song

[@quentinbendele1894]

Anything from Gary Allen his music is great every song has a meaning that’s why I listen to him great reaction btw

[@aaronvanantwerp4203]

Avenged sevenfold - so far away! Please!

[@lacyinmon1004]

This is my favorite Avenged Sevenfold song

[@rickydbranch523]

Skillet - "Monster" would be a great reaction video. They are a Christian rock band.

[@makayla7227]

Wolf in Sheeps clothing - Set it off True Friends - Bring Me the Horizon Heaven Knows - The Pretty Reckless

[@dominiclacoote2855]

Avenged Sevenfold is one helluva band

[@the3walcks]

Everything in this video is about the Rev. You got the drums laying in the room, the spiders that crawled on the Rev's face in afterlife, the dancing with the skeleton and then the empty drums at the end shows its their nightmare that the Rev is gone. He died before this album was finished. The Rev recorded demos for most of these songs but died before the final recordings.

[@stormangelus6638]

Song is incredible!

[@kgoodchild66]

Gary Allen “Tough Little Boys”

[@garyape]

Carry On by Avenged Sevenfold is awesome

[@catherinereeves6753]

Billy is low key a metalhead. :)

[@emmadawson1158]

You should do “Welcome to the family” or Stone Sour’s “say you’ll haunt me”

[@gabeackerman4964]

I had seen this band on each of the tours before this album. I took(My then 15) yr old son to this show. He instantly became a fan. I believe Korn, Hollywood Undead, and In This Moment were also on the bill.

[@godinjt9032]

Billy wit another reaction🐏

[@cyricrow899]

4:53 every time i hear Syn's guitar solo or when i know its coming up ^^

[@mrsgunsage01]

There are so many amazing Avenged songs. You could do a couple of weeks just reacting to them.

[@Greg-jm1nj]

Loving the Avenged Billy!!!

[@Brimstone-Gaming]

this is their best song, it got me into the group.

[@staystrongjoseph]

Same dude, along with almost easy

[@tamiramos5873]

I use the beginning of this song to wake me up in the morning.

[@mattstanford9673]

RIP Rev.

[@morganevans-bridgeman367]

Funny enough this is my alarm ringtone.

[@unclej4805]

Avenged Sevenfold - Buried Alive......they're best song

[@bluefox9361]

This song brings back memories when I was about two years old I was hooked on the song and one day when I went to my aunt sounds friends house I haven’t play the song and I got so caught up and saw the song I said the F word in the first part when he said the F word it was hilarious and her friends like Connor why would you say that I’m not

[@matthewneely]

Vet to Vet... I recommend Avenged Sevenfold MIA And ask yourself how these kids came up with it... Someone had to actually make it back from combat or intimately knew someone that did who completely opened up to them. Choose the Lyrics version so you catch every word. I look forward to your reaction of it if you choose to do so. Thanks for all the great reactions!

[@volbeatrules6528]

It’s a perfect song !

[@jaygee61]

I've been a fan of Avenged for years! Amazing live show! Synyster Gates is IMO the best living guitarist going! 🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘 The ending showing the drum kit is a tribute to their original drummer, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, who died tragically while recording this album! RIP Rev! 😢🖤🖤🖤 A7X forever!

[@dutchweeks1]

Far as mainstream rock music goes, few are on the level of Avenged Sevenfold.

[@garrettshort3308]

R.I.P The Rev

[@stevensurnear8938]

Gates is such a fucking god on the guitar!

[@SirHollywood44]

Yessss finally i love this song!

[@chefmatthammerschmidt8408]

Tony Justice "Last of the Cowboys"

[@eliholley1750]

Please continue doing A7X reactions. Do “The Stage” if you haven’t already. This is by far my favorite band. And you’re my favorite reaction channel so it would be great.

[@danibebault1060]

Second Chance (official Video) by Shinedown is another good song.

[@tina4840]

You gotta check out their song Seize The Day

[@ZakM9]

React to Sunny Disposition by Avenged Sevenfold the song has trumpets or saxophones in it, it's epic.

[@jeremyjohnson9222]

M shadows was his own dr at beginning of video

[@illooknornajwanbinshazali8316]

this is deep lyrics.

[@jaime7655]

you should react to Danger Line by Avenged Sevenfold. as a vet, you should like it.

[@Pingkonk]

So few actually know this whole vid is directly based off upon the movie Jacobs Ladder? Alright lol

[@christopherleonard8313]

Synister gates ain't no joke on that guitar. Go check out his solo joints on KZbin. He's a BEST. I'm telling u bro go review SO FAR AWAY. im gonna keep bugging u until u do my dude lol

[@korayalpgoktepe149]

the stage

[@kateandgeraldsmith2711]

My fav AV7 song!

[@leehyder5244]

Try out some James Ingram's love songs 1. Just Once 2. One Hundred Ways 3. Baby Come to Me 4. How Do You Keep the Music Playing 5. There's Just No Easy Way

[@jaysondixon923]

I wanna see your reaction to Fight For Love by Disciple... preferably the studio recording... live is cool but the studio recording is amazing... the intro will hit you out of nowhere

[@LilLadyHatchet]

A couple ICP songs if rap is a genre you like. a couple personal favorites are Miracles and The Mom Song (though this one does have similar/use the background to Tupac's Changes/Mad At Ya. Can't think of which) theres also ABKs Last Chance and Boondox's We All Fall

[@chriswiltfong68]

I don't know if you've reacted to any Slipknot yet but if you haven't, I suggest The Devil In I. Just be warned, the video is very graphic. But it fits perfectly with the song.

[@zompocto14]

i recommend avenged sevenfold with Shepard of fire, buried alive, and doing time

[@angelitabecerra]

You need to react to A7X (Avenged Sevenfold) A Little Piece of Heaven Creepy song and video but so, so good. Lyrical genius.

[@SixxDaze]

I love this song! Hey, Billy, could you react to Hell Yeah by Rev Theory? Keep up the great work. Peace ✌️

[@greggast9824]

I would recommend the bliss by volbeat

[@Phoenix_DarkMoon]

Billy my man PLEASE react to The Kids Aren't Alright by the Offspring.

[@jasonatkinson937]

Do a little piece of heaven for Halloween!!!!

[@austindavis6235]

He should checkout sidewinder by them

[@dsfuriousity4476]

You should totally react to Dance with the devil by Mr. Liqz

[@XxAverageJoexX]

Oh boy... I was the 666th like. That’s the third time this has happened.

[@tharonbell2317]

Hey I'm a new subscriber and I want to suggest avenged sevenfold hail to the king as you have done other songs by them

[@Eowyn187]

Hear "Dear God"! 😍

[@DestinyKiller]

I'd love to see you react to The Humbling River by Puscifer or Take me to Church by Hozier. The video is very much inspired by Jacob's Ladder (an excellent movie)

[@arlogsdon]

The entire video is explaining a bad drug trip I think. That it is a nightmare to be trapped in your own thoughts and becoming paranoid. I didn't understand it until I watched an interview.

[@jonathanharger7430]

Sinister gates is a bad ass

[@thelanternexpress9371]

EXIST BY A7X! Do it bro!

[@ZorroBit]

Steve Vai - Tender Surrender!!!!!!!

Billy you have to react to Buried Alive by them... that song is fuc*ing MASTERPIECE !!! 🤘🤘🤘 Like this for Billy to see this comment 👌
