Avenged Sevenfold - This Means War Live @ Download Festival 2014

[@WhiskyBeard]

These guys do something which a lot of metal bands nowadays struggle with They sound good in concert

[@cryogen7011]

Very true

[@jakeherington7237]

+PBirds76 Because most metal bands are old now. These guys are like 30-35

[@MoeJama2015]

Syn and Zacky kept fucking up the harmonies

[@ianchambers4957]

They sound the best in concert*

[@PlayToDie]

Gojira, Meshuggah, TesseracT, BTBAM, Plini, Opeth, Fallujah, Protest The Hero, Machine Head, Sabaton, Alestorm, Powerwolf, Monuments, Periphery, Lamb Of God, In Flames, Helloween, Devin Townsend, Born Of Osiris, Mastodon, Animals As Leaders, Ne Obliviscaris, Behemoth, Textures, and I'm not even done. I guess you don't know a lot of good bands.

[@LexotanGuitarrist]

Syn's play solos and goes back vocal, amazing guy.

[@ArmoniePorter]

Avenged sevenfold is life

[@jvg707]

Afterlife

[@WesleyAlves42]

Zacky's guitar sound is so awesome in this video !

[@shreddykrueger2408]

The way syn walked out with his guitar at the beginning of the solo is the most badass thing I've ever seen 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@hasahchan4775]

The way syn lifted his guitar only using the whammy bar gives me anxiety😅

[@borgwir]

the awesome thing about metal bands? they actually can do the performance like on the cd LIVE!! SOOO important!

[@Kingdakota97]

borgwir either that or they typically sound BETTER live

[@rileyk.1336]

"Modern" Music will NEVER EVER be able to touch Metal. The Live shows are just something else when you can get chills from an epic solo and that Beat drop... Most artists nowadays with their Electronic beats can only ever dream of being this Iconic.

[@alinzaharia4404]

"they actually can do the performance like on the cd LIVE!!" - that should be in the contracts :))

[@PicoTheGuyYo-jd7mw]

One of the greatest metal singers. He’s got so much range! & he has the pipes too. He can do anything he wants in that mic. He’s a boss!!!!

[@radamtv4779]

Shadows voice is not from this planet

[@soadr6908]

Dima Shady i love your pfp

[@radamtv4779]

Thank you ;)

[@SirKisaragi]

True ...

[@roseR3AL]

Wow Syn's voice is so damn good

[@isaacrumley]

That solo was amazing

[@kaiza3312]

Best day of my life.

[@KillSwitch24]

wow a7x sounds even more awesome live.

[@HedgeHogTail_]

M Shadows voice and vocals are not from this planet!!! WOW!

[@afanofKarlMarx]

m shadows has such a great voice

[@abbiebored9275]

My cousin comes down from Bradford to come to download every year so it must be good And he said that avenged sevenfold were really good

[@hazardgaminghg122]

They always are

[@Castronian]

Besides Shepherd of Fire and Hail to the King. This is my favorite song from the album

[@matttomato1200]

HOLY SH!T JUST LISTEN TO THAT RHYTHM GUITAR

[@laurynlindsay5131]

This brings back memories i loved them definitely the best band that played that weekend

[@charliebakerspen]

I'll never tire of watching this

[@SmAhmadWasti718]

Love the way how synyster gates strums the guitar strings

[@malo7x482]

Thumbs up for you once again my man

[@putrixiu]

My all time fav 🤘🏻

[@m.luqman2501]

every single time synyster play his solo, its feel like a new song in every song they played.

[@Nitrologyy]

1:54 I thought he was gonna smash the mic lol

[@KingTvlip]

I have a gif with that xD

[@chusmasantiago6464]

Nitrologyy he was expecting the lightning thunder effect like in the begining of the song. but nobody queued it for him. Lol EPIC FAIL

[@chusmasantiago6464]

Nitrologyy like at 0:30

[@usherontop]

This crowd's more dead than my grandpa

[@strek45]

Shit that cracked me up

[@bradmccallum1]

lol when videos are edited, they usually edit out the crowd (for the most part), so that you can actually hear the artists.

[@Hubbmeister21]

Shadows has went through some pretty bad haircuts

[@kristian_thick]

true, but the one he has here isn't his worst to be honest

[@kristian_thick]

it's the same with syn as well though

[@hazardgaminghg122]

I like all his hairstyles

[@hazardgaminghg122]

@@kristian_thick what's his worst. I like all his hairstyles

[@jamesdowner5529]

No he hasn't

[@789ibanez]

Awesome!!

[@TheAceOfOnes]

Something I hope we can all experience again ASAP..

[@Bghudddchannel]

AWESOME

[@charlesrose8465]

Never been would love to go to 1 because I love these guys thank God for older brothers

[@jayp.6166]

These guys sound so good live. Shadows sounds exactly the same and just as good as he does on record

[@thepreviewchannel6398]

Hide my face again, harbor in the shadows Feel this weight of sin hammering away Die, with the guilt of a thousand AWOL soldiers Die, watch the scythe usher me astray I can't go on this way Not as I am today The ugly side of me is strong Take aim, a loaded gun. Pull back on all who run. A coward's truth inside the wrong. This means war This means war This means war Lash your tongue of bane Carry me to nowhere Mental holocaust Battle never ends Lie! Mask the pain Of a child who's forsaken Lie! To myself Praise the new regime I left me long ago Reasons you'll never know No one to miss me when I'm gone With no more words to say No argument to stay. Another post I don't belong This means war This means war This means war This means war This means war No home to call my own No…

[@pebbles8677]

10 years ago already, mad to think I was in the crowd.

[@jordanpuffer231]

🔥

[@jakeherington7237]

Does nobody notice how similar this is to Metallica's Sad but True?

[@rubensebregts]

+Jake Herington metallica is a big inspiration to avenged sevenfold.

[@MoeJama2015]

And how the ending of Buried Alive has a mixture of Metallica's Orion and Ride the Lightning. And how Heretic has a Symphony of Destruction vibe. And how Coming Home slightly sounds like Number of the Beast. And how St. James has a Hangar 18 vibe. And how Eternal Rest has a Walk and Blackened vibe.

[@wirawhyra]

+Jake Herington yes i think lol

[@kailee87]

+Jake Herington yea similar alot but i prefer this

[@zfin87]

John L. So true

[@tiaraarmy5805]

Good

[@foryoukiki985]

Fuullll......replay ...

[@mercyff9964]

This means war, sad but true

[@pedroolmos3685]

Cuando alguien te pregunta qué es una banda con una performance del 100% en vivo, solo mostrale esto

[@user-rg2rh5wv1v]

It is more beautiful to silence an army with one goal than to silence one person with many wills

[@crimvail3013]

Shadows voice is not from this planet....

[@lazarodedeuslazinho5525]

Muito loca se loco

[@offmetaassault7429]

No pick bass player RESPECT

[@syahrulhumam1284]

slap like now..

[@duhbou]

[@jordanarmstrong6803]

Sad but true anybody🤔

[@Dreager141]

Was made as a Tribute

[@uzuchihaobito672]

Gucci gang let me show you something more epic once in your life time🔥🔥🔥

[@xdiegox2183]

Yo Im straight asf but gates @0:52 can like literally have my kids

[@Shalbyzn]

05:00 🤣🤣 wrong way..

[@dinna1020]

This song was inspired by sad but true🔥

[@panayiotisantoniou5095]

For some reason I can hear the guitars separated

[@Liyingbemo]

Recorded in stereo i guess

[@robertbrown7023]

4:03

[@johnrambo4245]

You can here the iron maiden in his voice here

[@heaththeriaultii3114]

I have this recorded on my tv

[@romeojuliet5140]

I love your J-Dog mask profile picture

[@kaskkafal1637]

Hi it sonuds like sad but true from metallica

[@sustainic113]

Sn 3:20

[@boogumpled5460]

oh damn what happened with the guitars

[@tunapie6877]

lol @4:59 and @5:18... nice one johnny.. HAHAHA

[@killzonee12]

I don't get it :/

[@tunapie6877]

haha listen and observe johnny's chords. he messed up.

[@larhop55]

Like you could do better, right? First, you'd have to get out from behind your keyboard and (second) be a member of a successful rock band. And that's where it ends for you...you're NOT either. HA!

[@larhop55]

***** That's why he's making millions $$ and you aren't, right?

[@NoDayle321]

larhop55 he fucked up on purpose because he thought it was funny chill out man

[@punariku991]

I think mat's haircut inspired by prime Anselmo

[@abasmoradi1853]

Matt shadows voice is spacey

[@TomWhaley621]

I wish he didn't cut the sustain on the notes in the solo... Sounds so choppy and awkward. Let it ring out!

[@anticitizen8023]

Many singers do it very often because it's quite hard to sing it properly live. I mean, it's a thing to sing in front of a recording microphone and another thing to sing in open space loud enough so 1 thousand people can hear you...

[@jtaa1116]

Metheorita very good point. Additionally... to do it nightly for weeks.

[@TomWhaley621]

Metheorita Angel Avila I was talking about Gates... haha

[@TomWhaley621]

***** Yeah haha exactly that part. It sounds so awkward and out of place. It needs to flow. Normally Gates is pretty textbook legato, so it seems strange that he would elect to play that part so squarely.

[@TomWhaley621]

***** hah eh at least I think it kind of throws the whole part off. The flow of the solo gets completely lost. I guess it doesn't really matter to me... not my favorite Avenged song anyways haha

[@oscarweasly1593]

what songs did they broadcast?

[@XxTheFallenxX1]

not sure how many but they definitely broadcast unholy confessions and this one. I saw both on the Lowdown sky TV show

[@TheMackinater]

James Shadows they also broadcasted Hail to the King

[@vbonk1075]

I would give my left kidney to hear this live 😭

[@nanangsyaputra7264]

Don't stupid.

[@thepreviewchannel6398]

heeey i'm your life....

[@Max-md2ff]

i stay asking myself... why the hell isn't this song in cod. cold war?

[@kennyvanhoy]

hey video man there is another member of the band. Its called the drummer. For fuck sake

[@KingTvlip]

cameraman: "no there's not"

[@ravencla2317]

After Rev died the drummer isn't the same so I bet that's why they don't really show the drummer because it's not the same without him.

[@tourettests1746]

2:00 Synyster messed up lol.

[@andrewy_]

wtf 360 ?

[@brennensnyder9236]

Are they out of tune at the beginning? It just sounds a bit weird to me

[@destroofficial9167]

These guys performing to some dead bodies 😌😌😌😌

[@traceshotbothsides7464]

they kinda fucked this song up here.... still love it

[@royyanhafizi8300]

Indo rock

[@georgi-drums]

Se parece a sad but true de hecho es una copia pero bueno

[@martinharms9487]

Es mejor que esa caca de metallica ni lo compares con eso viejos reumaticos

[@georgi-drums]

Por lo menos no se copian de otros

[@gemmacook1753]

Wow syn was having a bad vocal day yikes

[@homedeeple5517]

0:04 botch alert Mun dun bun MREEEEEEEAAANN

[@enginserttas]

syn is too drunk to play the solo

[@IMEANCEREAL]

Were they drunk or...?

[@432h93z]

[@hazardgaminghg122]

Are you dumb

[@fabricioholanda8766]

😂😂😂

[@BanditDil210]

[@vadimkravtsov6534]

Спиздили

[@dimitaryosifov159]

Such an annoying back vocal

[@ajiunmul555]

Bad sounds

[@oscarleon2408]

After listen all the songs of the stage, i can say that besides the solo, this song pretty sucks

[@hazardgaminghg122]

This is one of their best songs

[@wilsonator4string5]

You're not just wrong, you're stupid

[@roseR3AL]

It's okay, it may suck for you but you're gonna get attacked by stupid dipshits cz there are a lot stupid people in the comments

[@Martiizzer]

Terrible drum performance

[@gkampret1269]
