Nightmare was released not very long before my dad passed away. Hell, “So Far Away” actually came on the radio as we were driving to the hospital to say goodbye to him the day he was taken off life support. That album meant more to me than I can express. To hear those lyrics and to know that I wasn’t the only one that had experienced that kind of pain kept me sane. I knew that you could hurt that bad but still find a way to move forward and keep living your life. And I know I’m not the only one that that album had that effect on. I hope one day I get the chance to thank the guys of A7X personally!

Man, that feels like a million years ago. LOL!! I was watching my brother play the game one day, and he played that song, and I was hooked after that. Lol. I've been a huge fan ever since. I even got the Deathbat tattooed on my back two years ago for my 20th birthday. It's crazy that I've been a fan for so long, especially since I'm turning 22 next month. Holy crap. Time really does fly by. They played a crucial part in my middle school and high school years, among other bands. Lol. :P I'm gonna see them live in Denver next month, and it'll be my 7th time seeing them. Holy shit. That still blows my mind. Lol. But then again, I haven't missed a show since 2010.

this is actually my first time hearing him talk in an interview. as a fan of the band if you told me "hey listen to this guy speak and tell me who he sings for" I would've never of guessed. so Loudwire if you read this, perhaps that could be a new idea for the channel...like Guess This Singer. he sounds so soft spoken I would have never of guessed. People like Ozzy and Phil Anselmo I would know right away. just a thought. Like this comment if you like the idea for a new series so Loudwire sees it

I've been lucky enough to see these guys all over the country. From teeny tiny stages, to huge arenas and sounding the seventh trumpet is still one of my favorite albums ever. I miss the days of seeing them play songs from that album.

avenged sevenfold saved my life more times than literally anything or anyone else. i love them more than anything in the world. it's the purest love i've ever felt. everybody just calls me marina7x because i decided that that's what i wanted to be called. avenged sevenfold has been the greatest, most dominant part of who i am, and everything i believe in. i've been going through a rough patch and seeing this video reminded me of the love i feel for them and how strong it is which just made me feel calm as a whole. the effect it has on me is unparalleled. thank you for this. thank you

My mind was immediately blown when he mentioned Sonata Arctica. I always thought it would be interesting to see A7x's thoughts on power/symphonic metal because I believe they would appreciate the musical mastery and a lot of the elements those genres bring. Plus Nightwish & Sonata Arctica are my top two favorite bands, so this genuinely just made my day that he knows about them and has heard their music :').
