This was the band of my teenage years, I absolutely idolised them. The Rev had a condition with his heart that meant he would likely die young, which apparently plagued him a lot. He died at 28 of an overdose, though his family insist it wasn't intentional, there is a lot of speculation that it was. Another song by Avenged Sevenfold called "Brompton Cocktail" is eerily similar to the Rev's story, and a song the Rev wrote a few days before his death - called "Fiction" - seems to some to be a suicide note.

Alright it's my time to say story time @larryshair. This is a ode to their childhood friend, the drummer James Sullivan aka The Rev. He dies of alcohol overdose. Through his life he said a lot of times that he thought he won't make it past 30 and he passed at 28. My heart still cries for him whenever I hear this song. Rest in peace THE REV. I'm so glad of your reaction and the fact you had so much to relate and share with this video. I'll wait for my other suggestions for you to react. Till then. Take care.

To add onto this, jimmy’s last few days he was suffering so much from his condition, and those around him said they barely recognized him at the time. He knew his time was up so he went out on his own. 3 days before he passed he had finished writing a song the band now calls “Fiction” which you definitely should checkout. The song was basically him saying goodbye. He’s done some backing vocals for the band before and they kept some of his vocals from the demo version of the song to the final version. He also played piano which is played throughout this song as well.

Ah the A7X finally 😀 So many good songs by this band that I listen to this day especially Seize the Day, Afterlife, Danger Line, Dear God, Hail to the King and this one you reacted. Yep, The Rev sadly passed away at just 28 from an overdose. The sadness of growing older is that one has to witness the band is growing older too, starting to lose the vocals of it's prime 😣 but also blessed that it keeps going. On the other hand though, about childhood, got to tell you I am reliving my childhood days. How cool is that! 7 years living in this rural area as a teacher, these teen kids take me to the river for a swim after school, rides the little Ferraris of plank and ball-bearings on slopes, sliding down the hill... Oh the joy in my heart that electronics can't control them 😁 Have a bless day dost 😊

7:57 i mean, I'm a baby millenial/elder gen z, and my childhood wasn't devoid of that. We couldn't go roaming the steets as far as we used to because of stranger danger, but we spent plenty of time outside. Hell, i remember that one of the best weeks we had when i was a kid was when my parents got a new big screen tv and replaced the carpet at the same time because we got a big a$$ box and old carpet to play with. Good times!

Always been a favorite song of mine. Like so many people have said once the videos play I cry. You feel their pain watching everything they went through with him. I find it beautiful how they keep Jimmy's memory alive at their shows whether it's having his picture so far away or his voice during certain songs. When I saw them in March and I heard afterlife and then Jimmy's voice I started crying because this amazing talent was taken away far too soon. Put the real tearjerker for me I did the VIP experience and in the cabinet they had early pictures of the band. A pair of Jimmy shoes some of his backstage passes two of his drumsticks a pair of his favorite shorts and then his memorial booklet from his memorial service. And I felt like this warm loving Spirit and the VIP guy I was telling my friend what I was feeling and the guy goes that's exactly how the guys described Jimmy. But I've yet to see this song played live

Man, I've been a shadow lurker for years for you. I just wanted to note on the "back in my day" point. I'm 31 now, and I can really say, even when I was a kid, our childhood was so similar to yours! I feel like a lot of people forget, the huge internet age boom didn't happen until when I was a teenager! I have a younger brother, 16, who is always indoors, and I totally understand your reminiscing because I never see him do what I did as a kid! So yea, I just wanted to point out the "older" part of the generation after yours also see what you're seeing. Keep making awesome content, appreciate you!

18:34 So, it was ruled an accidental drug overdose, but Jimmy had a very painful heart condition that was going to kill him young no matter what. A lot of people, myself included, think that it was an intentional drug overdose. Jimmy was the kind of guy who would want to go out on his own terms, not when and how some disease said so. Also, given the lyrics of Fiction and the fact that it was the last song he turned in for the record before it happened.... it's really hard to see it as anything other than a goodbye letter. Maybe he just knew his time was almost up, though, and he didn't have a purposeful hand in it; sometimes, people can just feel it in their core that the end is drawing near for them

An absolutely legendary song by Avenged Sevenfold is "a little piece of heaven", you should react to that next. Edit: four minutes in and you've got me going down memory lane. See I'm a millennial, we grew up right as technology was becoming big but my friends and I always hung out outside. Out in the creek or tearing up the small town we lived in. It got me thinking what ever happened to face to face contact? Why are we all so very afraid of human conversation? If you ask me, life felt better.... simpler back then.
