Avenged Sevenfold... the gayest band in metal?

[unknown]

Its pretty sickening what gets passed off as metal nowdays. Avenged Sevenfold falls under that listing, as does Atreyu.

definitely. their fans are pretty idiotic as well

Hah! At least he didn't play a pink guitar!

At least he didnt get ass raped by a giant pink blow up penis.

 

[BWN @ Work]

A7X (even that sounds gay...) is bubblegum music whose target audience is 12-17 year old girls. Any guy that likes this band is at least a little gay. Overall, they are good musicians....but so is C.C. Deville.

My boyfriend likes them. I question his sexual orientation.

Can Avenged Sevenfold really be considered metal??

 

[metalized]

err... after seeing the festival I just did.... there is always something MORE CHEESY than everything you have ever heard.

(*waits for the Sinister concert on 21st note: not cheesy )

well, nothing of what you listened to there is more CHEESY than some of the stuff you had already listened in the past.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

I hate them, especially the singer. I hate their music. They have one song I like "Unholy Confessions", and its not even all that good.

 

[fading]

Please don't dignify them with the title of "metal"

They are not even worthy of this thread!

Can Avenged Sevenfold really be considered metal??

Survey says.....NO.

 

[Papa Josh]

How dare anyone even call this shit metal??? uke:

 

[Birthofthewicked]

Overrated commercial emo peice of shit!

 

[Anvil]

Its not metal. However, I don't mind a few of their songs, and I've seen them and Atreyu live, and honestly they're not that bad live. They're not good, but they're not bad. Good musicians. Their albums however suck my left testical.

Their music isn't metal, its like a post-emo metalcore kind of thing.

 

[Necromunchkin]

yeah. There are definitely worse bands out there. However, I saw in interview where they were claiming how they were a "Full-on, heavy fucking metal band" and I had to laugh.

Maybe they meant heavy metal in the 'back in the day' sense. Paul Gilbert described racer X as exactly that.

 

[Brooks]

Have any of you guys listened to their entire album? I'm not a fan, but there is some cool stuff in there, apart from the singles.


I heard someone say the other day: "...and I'm still convinced that the chorus to "The Beast and the Harlot" is some kind of joke" ... so true, such a shitty chorus for what could have been a really cool song.

 

[zortz]

The singer annoys me, but they seem to be able to play. I like the Queen influence in a few of their songs, but the singers 'style' annoys me and ruins it. I just hate that nasal whiney shit. But 13-16 year old girls seem to get into it.

 

[Kvlt Wench]

Hey now.

 

[AsModEe]

Nevermore is gayer than Avenged Sevenfold.

No really.

paul gilbert is also god...

Most american "metal" now a days is pretty shitty if you ask me. Avenged Sevenfold could be worse, and there is a few parts in songs I like, but on a whole I wouldn't say they're very good.
