A flying skull is a pretty elementary idea. It's probably been used a million times. There were even flying skulls in the original DOOM. Giving them wings just seems logical. How else would it fly? Perhaps what you are witnessing is actually avenged sevenfold's belief in gravity and that for all bird-like creatures to fly, they must have wings? I know skulls aren't birdlike (unless its a bird skull) but flying objects usually have wings. You don't believe in magic do you? Well there you have it. Skulls don't just "mysteriously" float around the room, they fly on wings.
You stole that pentagram in your avatar from 3,000+ worldwide black metal bands, and beyond... so who are you to judge?

Exactly! There are so many logos like that that I wouldn't consider them a rip-off. I like them, (yay kill me for liking Metalcore) but I'm definetly not biased, I've seen it a billion times.

not only that they ripped off poison and motley crue and made glam
rock even gayer than it was in the 80's.

Yeah, the flying skull has been used a million times, killswitch engage for example, i'm wearing a killswitch t-shirt right now with a flying skull on it.

by the title I thought you meant MUSICAL theft(which they boldy commit regardless, at least on "waking the fallen"), haha

I always get the feeling that the tunes heard on "City of Evil" have been used many times before. The chord progression and vocals are pretty generic. But a good album nonetheless.

avenged sevenfold are thieves in the sense that they charge more than fifty cents for their shitty music.

Yeah, it might've been the best non-metal album of the year. (in that genre, course). The vocals were put together great, but his voice just sounds whiny to me.

Why don't people consider this album metal? Even after discovering real metal, it never struck me as anything but.
I don't think City of Evil is very metal. I mean, its harder than most rock bands, but I still wouldn't say metal. They used to be metalcore, if that helps any.

It's not even metalcore, because there is no hardcore screaming or chugga-chugga downtuned riffs.
