M. Shadows Talks About Upcomming DVD

Photo of Avenged Sevenfold

Band Photo: Avenged Sevenfold (?)

Avenged Sevenfold frontman M. Shadows recently had the following to say regarding the bands forthcoming DVD outing "All Excess":
"This DVD has been 8 years in the making. We didn't want to cheat the fans by putting out a standard live DVD. Instead we wanted to focus on giving back to our fans by showing them what makes 5 best friends from Huntington Beach eat, sleep and breathe the Avenged Sevenfold lifestyle. This DVD shows everything from life backstage on the bus to some of the first shows in our hometown. We didn't leave anything off that fans have been asking about for all these years. Unlike cookie-cutter concert DVD's this is a documentary you can watch again and again for years to come."

What's Next?

I agree, stop wasting your time (and the people who read your posts) bashing the bands you hate. I love how people like to throw around the "emo" insult. Do you even know what it means? Does anyone know what it means? It means nothing now, kind of like the word "terrorist". But forget it, these guys are a great band and their newest effort, City of Evil, is awesome. If it is a show of what the band can do, they will be around for a long time. Oh, and by the way, if you are calling them sell-outs because the singing is all clean on the new album then you should check your facts before you insult. Their singer had to have throat surgery and he can't scream anymore. I sure hope the DVD isn't just clips of live performances mixed with random bullsh** clips of the band, I have no interest in that.

Justify your hate or love for this band with reasons. Just make it f***ing interesting.

For instance:
M. Shadows sounds like every recorded telephone operator I've ever heard! "If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again" THAT ONE!

If you've never heard this I can help you get close. Hold your nose speak/sing loudly from the top of your throat (not your diaphragm). The more nasal and destressed you sound, the closer you are the Mr. Shadows...nothing wrong with that last name, no need to be embarrassed by it....

In the picture above he's asking the cameraman how his nails look.

It's annoying how people want to bash on others based on what they like. Different people have different likings and if you don't like A7X then what are you people doing here? when other people that like A7X read what I'm about to say, they are gonna laugh!
These buttholes came in here when they don't even like A7X. It's like getting lost in your own house. Basically coming in here to bash on the band and other people that like 'em. It's pretty funny because they're on their computer saying "hey it's the internet, they can't hurt me! Now let's bully!" What the heck did we no good lowlifes that listen to crappy bands ever do to you "oh so great people that have great taste in music" that's so friggin' bad? You haters are just worthless squashed turd nuggets on the road. GO CRAWL BACK IN YOUR DAD'S ASS! A7X ROCKS!!

wow... I think its really funny how people just spend thier time talking sh** about bands they dont like, rather then post real comments about bands they actually do like.. Bashing on a band you hate = immature. Exactly what Zacky_V_1 said.... "if you people dont like A7X then what are you people doing here"? Avenged Sevenfold is an amazing band with alot of talent. Obviously they know what they're doing because they're still making albums and millions of dollars.... And your not, so shut the f*** up!

Post 13 and 14

What I don't understand is how you can place a value on the time spent defending the band as more crucial than the seconds spent exposing their many flaws.

Opinions of every sort should be heard: positive or negative for every band. That is the point of these threads, deal with it.

Tell me why you don't think the vocals are grating. Justify the need for makeup and nail polish. Why doesn't his fake last name embarrass you?

If you find yourself reduced to grade school insults toward people with differnt views, I don't even want to know what you have to contribute.

First of all, what makes me an invalid? And I am a him, not a her. I am an invalid because I posted in favor of a band that you don't like? Grow the hell up. You're so big and tough, acting all macho on the internet. Give me a break. Secondly, what does make-up and nail polish have to do with playing music? I'll agree that fake names like M. Shadows and goofy images are a bunch of crap, but its got nothing to do with what you hear on your CD player or mp3 player. As for RM?'s comment that opinions should be heard either way, I agree. However, calling a band gay or just rattling off expletives and saying they suck isn't an opinion, it's unintelligent garbage that adds nothing to the discussion except a flame war. So don't stand up for the idiots who are doing nothing other than ruining what could be a mature conversation about a band which one may or may not like.

You idiots twats are not cool for simp,y being a couple of emo crybabies living in an american dream-esque house in the suburbs. So, I guess this is where you A7X twats loses. There isn't much to do to bury all of you emo c***s further deeper into the sh**hole I have dug you guys into. I have to say, due to my charisma and surrounding aura of energy I have even myself lifted the spirits of these whining crybabies myself.

But is me, you guys know, Jericho yours truly, LMFAO. A7X is a come and go band unfortunately. By the way it appears that you guys are bashing a couple of emo fags here most of the time. And they never come back. Believe me, you will see a lot of these queers in YT. I have fun impersonating them, Hahaha.
