It's about their drummer The Rev. Those pictures at the end were all of him. He grew up with them since they were young kids. RIP.

My dad had this song for his funeral. It’s been 9 yrs and it still makes me cry when I hear it.

[@JayMill24]

Sorry for your loss. Stay strong and celebrate his life.

[@keithcummings5240]

Sorry brother. Know that you are his living legacy so as long as you live he dose as well 🙏

[@photobombchamp]

I’ve seen this video 100 times and I get tears every damn time … I know it’s for their drummer who passed but I can’t help but think of people I’ve lost too… such a good performance too you can really feel the pain in the singing and the guitar playing

[@Uninvited72]

💔💔💔

[@boosted2.4_sky]

8:56... The Drummer... I heard this song for the first time when my mom passed away... only a week or so after... I had to pull over

[@danielremm4278]

The end of this song always makes me feel emotional. I feel the pain. RIP Jimmy The Rev Sullivan.

[@lpita2431]

Rest In Peace The Rev 🖤 such an amazing Drummer ❤️‍🔥

I know this ain't the same band, but RIP Joey Jordison founding member, and original drummer of Slipknot! 27th of July 2021. 🤘

[@fatboy1271]

Bassist from ZZ Top passed away yesterday.

[@justinsondermann6196]

The Drummer Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan passed away right before they dropped the Nightmare Album. The Rev had recorded parts of his vocals for the songs he was supposed to record. He was a huge part of the band and they were like brothers since they were kids. Definitely check out more of their stuff it’s a must. The Song Bat country made me love them.

[@MattyIce42]

Avenged Sevenfold is such an amazing band. I hope you guys react to more, they're lit live! Check out "this means war" or "warmness on the soul"

[@cherienotcherry9131]

This song always makes me cry. Thank you so much for reacting to it today. I lost someone very important to me a year ago tomorrow and this always reminds me of him 💜 I miss you Randy and will always love you

This song is a holy relic for us A7X-fans. RIP Jimmy "The Rev", you genious! Always in our hearts. foREVer!

This is a tribute song to the drummer Jimmy ( The Rev ) Sullivan who passed away due to an accidental overdose

[@digitalchaos1980]

Yes sir, such a tragic thing to happen. He was a hell of a drummer and a hell of a guy! This song to him is so beautiful, and it jams too! You can not only hear the raw emotion and sadness in M. Shadows' voice, but you can surely hear it in the guitar riffs as well. If I recall correctly, the song was actually written by Synyster Gates because The Rev was his best friend, although they were all friends, of course. And lastly, I love how they don't show the drummer in this video out of respect for Jimmy. This band has alot of heart and it has been a long time favorite of mine for a long time! RIP Jimmy Sullivan!

[@vDeFeNDeRx]

@@digitalchaos1980 also syns guitar has the word REV in the stem instead of SYN like it usually does. If you didn't catch that in the video

[@digitalchaos1980]

@@vDeFeNDeRx Oh yeah, I caught it. Thought that was really cool! 😎

[@vDeFeNDeRx]

@@digitalchaos1980with them being the closest of friends in the band it's a fantastic way to pay tribute as well as the song

[@digitalchaos1980]

@@vDeFeNDeRx It really is. It's a badass, yet melancholy, jam that is very well thought out and done. These guys couldn't have done a better job!

Is great to see a couple react to this next A7X a little piece of heaven

[@PetterVessel]

Oh, this is interresting :D

[@ambert7614]

Buried alive , and fiction are my two favorite songs off this album and no one reacts to them. Maybe you guys could ?? Lol Also I don’t know that no one had informed you before hand this song was written for their drummer who passed away at the time of recording this album. Fiction has his vocals in it. Rip Rev

[@soundsannin1870]

Rip the legend Jimmy *The Rev* Sullivan.

[@stoneyp3748]

Get back on the same page yall, can tell somethings off but thats life. I just lost a goodfriend this morning and it just makes you realize tom isnt promised. Ya'll are one of the best/honest reaction couples out....one love!

Heard this for first time 3 mos ago. Very addictive and emotional song. And that guitar ....wow

[@michaelswimm6253]

RIP Rev. We all miss you.

[@ProtoLolZz]

this song is a tribute to their original drummer James "Jimmy, The Rev" Sullivan as many have already pointed out, he died extremely young, he was only 28 years old, he had a inborn heart condition and doctors said that he would not see his 30th birthday, his reason of death was deemed overdose of oxycodone an opioid medicine. The last song that he recorded with the band, just a few days before his OD is Fiction from the album Nightmare, its a painfull but beautiful song, you should check it out.

[@michaelswimm6253]

They are paying homage and love for him.

[@michaelhodges7512]

Classic song

[@rachelwarner3745]

Please go down this rabbit hole!!!!!

[@lisaheathcock7924]

[@thajuice100ify]

Probably my favorite song by them because of the emotion in the singing n guitar solo. Check out Buried Alive, it has accents of this song in it so I always thought of it as a continuation but slightly heavier

It was his drummer he grew up with he died of a accidental overdose

[@vitoandrade783]

notice in the video there is no drummer on the drums.. he passed away this is a tribute to him

[@marctessarolo1832]

They are reminiscing, they all grew up together and the drummer died during the making of this album, Mike Portnoy of dream theatre stepped in to help finish it, and this whole song is about the death of Jimmy Sullivan A.k.a.the Rev (The Reverend)

[@brettvandermeer5297]

you guys should react to the tv show Kenny vs Spenny. one of the creators has put most of the episodes that he got the rights back to on youtube, so should be fine for full reactions. peak of canadian comedy tv shows in mid 2000s

Man this is so awesome guys, please react to more Avenged sevenfold

[@fatboy1271]

Everyone in the band loved Jimmy like a Brother but Syn, the lead guitarist, seemed to have something a little more. This was the first time he wrote all the lyrics by himself... 🤘🤘 Fiction is something else, very emotional, and seemingly a goodbye note from Jimmy. It's the last lyrics he wrote and the last of his vocals recorded for this album 😭

[@ambert7614]

I love this song so much and wish more people would give it a listen. ( at least reactors on KZbin)

[@mattsteelman3832]

You should definitely check out more A7X but if anyone recommends A Little Piece of Heaven, don't listen to it. That song is too much for many people, especially if you're not used to how dark metal can get, and it's caused many reactors to not check out more of their music.
