Metal on t'radio? Not in my day i tell thee

It was over the top. Like Trivium, they were gettingg ridiculous praise. I know it's my fault for listening to Radio 1, but still.

Woah, now we're talking about Roadrunner? What does that have to do with the band? You think they devise their own marketing campaigns?

Oh, sure the band would've protested if they were upset. They were loving it.

This is the only one where you may have a point, but I'm not totally convinced. As I said above, if its the only way the guy can sing and he wants to be in a Trad Metal band, who am I to argue? By the way, he (Jamie) was the original singer, so he was not 'added' to appeal to anyone.

In the ned, it's a matter of taste, but to me it's too much like fusing the old and the new, and making a mess of it overall. And they did add that one with the stupid name.

Oh, the one that sounds like Rob Halford? Yeah they added him on the demo EP. Y'know, to appeal to the core kidz.

"Dedicated professionals".

So people in poor bands (which I'm not saying 3IoB are) all lack dedication? Nonsense.

I must admit, Zad's on a roll today! :roll:

:roll: back at you. I don't think the band are as worthy as people say they are, that's all. So they released a rather average album with same-y songs, doesn't mean they're automatically Christ's second coming.
Is "Battlecry" better than "Advance And Vanquish"? As I said, I don't like the formula that much so I doubt I'll get it.

No, Battlecry is not better, the production is a bit shoddy. I was trying to make a point that they're a legit band and have been at it for a while.

Can we just turn this into the "Avenged Sevenfold member says something moronic" thread?

Launch Radio Networks reports: AVENGED SEVENFOLD's current single, "Bat Country", is the band's tribute to late author Hunter S. Thompson and his classic book, "Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas", also the basis of a 1998 movie starring Johnny Depp. Guitarist Synyster Gates and singer M. Shadows told Launch that the California-based group visits Vegas regularly and does it best to recreate Thompson's wild adventures there. Commented Gates: "It's like three or four hours away, and we always go up there, the band and everybody, and just, it's really, really insane, you know. It's just basically like the movie." Added Shadows: "And that's pretty much, yeah, what we do when we go to Vegas, you know. It's all pure drinking, decadence, mayhem...that's probably about as far as we should go on that."

With undue credit to Blabbermouth.

They do sound like a bunch of spoilt gobshites... But they're probably younger than me so I feel like a bit of a sad old grandpa. I've never recreated any films :(

Except Power Rangers.

My god, I was born all of one and twenty years ago. The dark ages compared to the seven and ten that I suspect of Avenged Sevenfold...

Johnny Christ? For feck's sake, if your going to take up a crappy pseudonym, at least pick one that isn't already taken. Muppets.
