zombieksa Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 A7X has just released a link to stream their new album via itunes this week before the release. So far it has some serious old-school metal feel to it, only 3 tracks in so far though. http://search.itunes...vengedsevenfold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WonderTwinPowers Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 They started to lose me at Nightmare. Understandably hard once the Priest passed to keep the same sound RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBackup Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Listening to their new album right now. Really enjoying it so far. Very groovy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VICanucksfan5551 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Just listened to it today and I'm not a fan. Way too much Sabbath/Maiden/Metallica worship and too few original ideas. In the past, they could make up for occasionally substandard songwriting with top-notch musicianship, but I'm not hearing that here. The lyrics are also pretty bad, even for A7X. I wasn't expecting a return to the glory days of Waking the Fallen, but this doesn't measure up even with their newer material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBackup Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 6 studio. You can start with any album really as they all have a different sound but I would suggest starting with City of Evil Shepherd of Fire just kicks you in the ass from the get go. Running through it again and really enjoying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VICanucksfan5551 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I just finished listening to it and I gotta disagree with you on that. I'm not the world's biggest fan or anything but I do like the band and can say with a great deal of confidence that this is one of, if not the best album they've put out. Its pretty obvious they wanted to go back to simple, straight forward metal, and they did a fantastic job. If its not your cup of tea thats fine, but I really enjoyed this album.

AbbyNucksFan Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Notable tracks - Unholy Confessions, is like their anthem, their first big hit, young heavy and naive - Bat Country, homage to Hunter S Thompson just a fun song. - Betrayed, song dedicated to the death of Dimebag Darrell - Seize the day, First popular ballard if you are into that thing. - Brompton Cocktail, my personal favourite track on their ST album - Scream, groove metal at its finest.

Psycho_Path Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I'd basically agree with that list, though I'd add in A Little Piece of Heaven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
