Avenged Sevenfold - Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan (Tribute Video)

This man I never knew changed my life forever.

[@camdenwalls2231]

I remember the day he passed. I was 15, going on 16 and me and my brother were huge fans. Me and him were helping my dad with something and my brother went to go get water and he came back with tears in his eyes and told me the news and i almost broke down right then and there. It's hard for me to listen to the album Nightmare because Jimmy is the only person i can think about. I came back to this video to mourn my brother and remember the talks we had about Jimmy and the band and what we thought they would do next. I'm still a fan of this band to this day and I'm eager to see what is next for a new album. I will and always, almost 10 years later, remember that day when the first person to motivate me to play the drums left this world. R.I.P. The Knife Master

[@erwinrifailangi]

oh dude... your story ..... it's kicking my tears 😭

[@ayapamungkas2267]

Oh dude, my best friends and I were only 14 at that time. It was one of my best friends who called me first. She was crying non stop so I just couldn't grasp what she said. After like 5-10 mins on the phone she finally calmed down and she told me that Jimmy had passed away. It just felt so surreal. I couldn't believe it at first. It felt real when the next day we met at school and she cried again, me and my other best friend tried to calm her down only to find ourselves crying too. I still can't forget all the memories we had when we're really enjoying ourselves fangirling over a7x back in middle school. Jimmy was so loved so cherised, even from the other side of the earth. He left so young. He would be in our hearts foREVer.

Goodnight James, we all miss you dearly.. my teens was dedicated around the music you created and its moulded me into the man i am today.. words cannot express how much i owe to you and the rest of the crew for who i have become. Gone but never forgotten.. we love you jimmy.

[@cednighty1485]

I Lost my dad in 2013. I was already listening to Avenged Sevenfold. He took me to my first concert in Paris. The first concert was the Nightmare tour. I will never be able to see the rev live but i know one thing... He's still here with us. Because the Rev is Avenged Sevenfold. 🤘🖤🙏💪

[@kazegawa61]

2020 and still drop my tears. Hell, I miss his phenomenal voice and crazy drum kick. Even pinkly smooth does great job kicking my ass!

[@kyledavis1767]

The rev and this band, is what got me into rock/metal music. Its what made me play my heart out for years, tour across the u.s. and spend more hours in music than any thing else in this world. You had a great life. Truly a blessed man.

[@davidschulz3396]

I'm very grateful to have had the chance to meet and hang out with the Rev after a show in Milwaukee, he was so cool, and nice to me, I told him he was my favorite drummer, he said thank you.

[@lilygarcia129]

I remember when I was 8 or 9, my uncle took my brother and I to see Avenged Sevenfold and we happened to meet Jimmy at the meet and greet. He had such a warm heart and wonderful laugh. he signed my drum sticks and my shirt and told me to never give up on my dreams. when I heard he had passed, my heart broke in millions of pieces. He was amazing and such a great drummer. Rock in paradise, Rev. 😔

I was a big fan of him when I was 12. When my brother came back home and bring the news about the rev's death I was literally so shocked that I couldn't even eat or do anything that day. But I still listen to their album until high school. Seeing him in this tribute bring so much memories, thank you.

[@noblenitro8500]

You do realize that was a quote he heard, not something he made up about himself.

[@noblenitro8500]

did I say he made it up himself?

The quote is not about him. The Rev is not the knife master.

[@mimi_tehe]

The Rev being the tallest in the band makes so much sense

[@JJ-oy5zx]

Back in 2011 I was 10 years old and I listened to my first A7X song on my dads trash laptop and was instantly hooked. I remember looking up the cast and saying man this guy is just wild. 10 years later I still love this band but it just isn't the same without the Rev. RIP Jimmy we still love you.

[@Fl0pus]

16:08 I wish he didn't have that huge heart... only true A7X fans will understand

[@pppipw]

He died because he had a big heart thats so weird

[@Onirii]

Felipe J, sort of, but he died of an opioid overdose and alcohol combined

[@TheMeh115]

Not necessarily a “true fan” thing. But it is indeed a sad thing that he had that kind of issue. Just... wasn’t what killed him. Overdose was.

[@uncleboobs625]

@@TheMeh115 was it suicide or accidental?

[@TheMeh115]

Jacob Swain I’m pretty sure it was accidental, but there are some crazies that could call it suicide. I mean, they make “Fiction” sound like a good case for it (it is, but meh).

[@KJLewis-om3vk]

What a fucking legend, short lived! Hope he's never underestimated or forgotten in metal! Rest in peace Rev.

[@vikingblah2180]

As a fan and a fellow musician I would like to say that rev and syn are probably my two biggest inspirations. I had the honor of meeting rev at a concert about 2 or 3 years before he died and he was one of the nicest and coolest people I've ever met from my heart to the band I say rest in peace jimmy you are an inspiration to me and I will always carry on that memory when I play guitar. And a for syn I met him at uproar fest again one of the coolest people I've ever met and I would like to thank the entire band for being an inspiration and I wish you all luck.

[@vault4287]

11 years ago.. I was only 10. I had no idea who the band was or who Jimmy was. The first song I listened to was Afterlife on NHL 09 but that was a few years after his death and the game release (duh). As I got older I listened to more songs still having no idea Jimmy was dead. I found out two years ago, a friend of mine who also loves A7X and Jimmy told me. I was crushed. I later discovered Fiction, and was even more crushed when I read it was his last song before he died. #foREVer

[@Schizniit]

Still one of the greatest rock drummers of all time. I've been listening to Avenged since I was a little kid and I still am finding little nuances I never noticed before in his drumming and song writing
