Avenged Sevenfold "Bat Country" 2023 Welcome To Rockville

"Time for Syn's guitar solo!" *Films bassist*

[@alanheyes694]

Maybe the person filming plays the bass.

[@dimmyjeams7489]

mans was struggling to get a shot but someones head was in the way lmao

[@loudrumsforyou]

Can we take a moment to appreciate that brooks wackerman is now gonna be on two a7x albums? Thr last drummer to be on more than one a7x album was the rev. I think they finally landed on their guy

[@EnergeticSpark63]

hey

[@Dolbee49277]

Arin was sick in my opinion. They haven’t had a good album since he was in the band.

[@loudrumsforyou]

@@Dolbee49277 he was a cool drummer no doubt. but i disagree with the album, i think sonically and creatively the stage was their best album they ever produced. Hail to the king was bland and unoriginal. I like that album but its definitely a7xs most uninspired album. This means war is a literal copy paste of metallicas song sad but true. The stage is completely an original take yet still capturing the sound that a7x is known for. Nightmare would be a very close second, id put hail to the king at the bottom of a7xs albums to be honest

[@giantturd5157]

​@@Dolbee49277 lmao he sucked dude

[@d3athwillcom390]

Arin was on album but all black ops songs except mad hatter. He had more potential but he just didn’t show out with A7X

[@pebbles8677]

M shadows reminds me corey taylor here with the way he looks

[@khall187]

Wish I could see it

[@GabrielXDrums]

I mean it’s Syn lol

[@gabrielwag]

My man has played this solo thousands of times. Maybe tens of thousands.

[@Marta1Buck]

In the past I mistaken his solo with being sloppy 😂, chaotic was the right word.

[@BoeyChar]

It’s… his solo? 😂

[@Cxrinae]

I don't think anyone is under the illusion that Matt's voice is what it once was, but his voice rehabilitation and lessons have paid off big time. Absolutely incredible recovery.

[@JV8901]

What happened to him?

[@Cxrinae]

@@JV8901 he's messed up his voice a few times over the years and required surgery on his throat a few times

[@kylester0055]

@@Cxrinaehe's only had one surgery and that was in 2004 before he learned proper technique from Ron Anderson. After then, his vocal troubles stemmed from touring 24/7. He never really got a break for almost 10 years, man. And even then, he still has some pretty good performances considering the amount of torture he's put himself through.

[@Cxrinae]

@@kylester0055 that's basically the point I was making lol

[@kylester0055]

@@Cxrinae sure, but it was a little misleading. I guess you could say I was improving upon your point.

[@I_am_oLii]

Yeah Johnny Christ is cool but why would you film him during Syn's solo? 😂

[@Shadows_shades.a7x]

Bass solo but we cant hear it😉

[@jacewinger222]

I thought the same thing, dude just followed Matt the whole time. There’s other members of the band dude😂

[@harrisfadilah]

That true!

[@vdi419]

Cause it's Johnny Christ ft. Avenged Sevenfold

[@ThisIsVeto]

I swear this is the 3rd Avenged video I've seen where the camera goes on Johnny during a solo lmao

[@aliskilletman]

I'm happy that shadows voice is back more than the bands comeback and new record

[@_jaymck_]

This performance is the most passionate I’ve seen them play Bat Country since 2005

[@CodyTyler94]

Matt’s vocals have peaked and I’m here for it

[@Iconicfoil26291]

His voice peaked years ago. What a dumb comment.

[@Aboydaron]

Lol more like how bad they have gotten

[@solisstreams1651]

Shadows wearing an R+ shirt... couldn't be more perfect

I really appreciate how close Brooks' kit looks to The Rev's old setup- unbelievably clean playing too!

[@blazeofglory450]

so glad im not the only one to catch that, i was thinking RIGHT before scrolling the comments, “that looks like Jimmys Kit”

[@toothless7053]

Matt sounds fucking GOOD. I’ve seen them live roughly 5 or so times and don’t recall him sounding this intense in a while.

Lol even Johnny pointed to syn and said dude go film him😂 2:57

[@autumnparadox]

Awh, Matt always paces so much in his first performance but he always kills it! (They all do) I cannot wait for them to hit my city this summer! 🥰

[@loudrumsforyou]

I bet johnny made a deal with the cameraman before the show

[@tylerrhoton9848]

Nice to see Spencer Sotelo on rhythm guitar!

[@ianspeckmaier9565]

Brooks is absolutely killing it. Almost sounds like the Rev is behind the kit.

[@kovidhbhattacharjee2368]

Shadows in a Rammstein shirt? Fuckin‘ love it!

🥰🥰🥰 Thank you for sharing, on behalf of the Avengers who couldn't make it. Damn, 5 years is a long time.

[@zansa2]

Johnny: *points to guitar duo* *camera struggles to find the other side of the stage* XD

[@MrShenron89]

His voice definitely took a new direction, he no longer screams/growls. I guess years and years of beating your vocal cords will do that. I still love them, w/e direction they head.

[@sangramadhikary6203]

Pretty sure he screamed multiple times on this show

[@Tom090586]

Yeah but multiple times is not like him in his prime🤘

[@glez_inc6393]

Yay Matt sounds great. I’m happy did this song. I kind a wish they would have done seize the day or dear God, but I’m glad they did this song

[@mikehoncho2900]

Why wouldn’t they play seize the day.. what idiots

[@josephdubrock646]

they will probably never perform those songs again lol

[@EmilPiano]

@@josephdubrock646 Why do you think so? Seize The Day seems possible right? Dear god is acoustic.. doesn't on these shows i guess

[@josephdubrock646]

@@EmilPiano Seize the day won’t make setlists because it’s an old deep cut. (don’t get me wrong it’s still a huge song) but they have bigger and newer songs they’d rather perform. i’m pretty sure the last time they played seize the day was the hail to the king tour. i could be wrong on that

[@MrHarry-hx4bo]

@Joseph Dubrock At Area 15 in vegas last week they played unholy confessions and so far away. Pretty good too. I don't see why they wouldn't put those in the rotation at some point.

[@jeanmichel805]

Cara, o Matt tá com um nível de perfomance realmente espetacular, o problema é que isso pode sobrecarregar a voz dele novamente, acho que ele teria que cuidar e inclusive mudar algumas partes de umas músicas que são super altas, mesmo que ele consiga cantar.

[@tiagomacri3537]

pior.. olha a performance de "Unholy Confessions" desse show.. o maluco tá berrando de novo.. espero que ele tenha refinado sua técnica e esteja cuidando da voz, tendo acompanhamento médico, etc..

[@Colt2OO2]

@@igorpodemski9596 In some parts it's a little iffy, but I think it's just a case of him still getting back into the groove of singing these songs live after almost 5 years of not doing so. He still sounds great otherwise though, the time off really helped him heal his voice
