Let There Be Talk episode 703 M.Shadows and Johnny Christ, Avenged Sevenfold

Музыка

Today I sit down with M.Shadows and Johnny Christ of Avenged Sevenfold to talk all about their new record "Life Is But A Dream"
We also dive into what it was like to tour with Iron Maiden, Their Song Writing process and M.Shadows vocal process.
I was fired up to have these guys on because I really think their new album is something very unique so I hope you dig our conversation.
Keep rocking

    I think Johnny really isn't getting much credit on his bass playing on this album.

    Avenged Sevenfold has been my favorite band for a decade and you always get a little nervous when your favorite band comes out with a new album. But LIBAD is easily one of the best albums I've heard. Every song is so powerful

    I saw them at Madison Square Garden on Friday. Living Colour and FIR opened for them and both were incredible. But these guys are fucking gods on stage. Love to hear the hits, but when they played off the new record, it was something else entirely. The energy was there and they played that shit note for note. I was most impressed by Shadows. His vocal performance was one of the best I’ve ever seen.

    I was at the show that M shadows talked about in Atlanta. He was totally right about them opening up for Metallica. I knew that they were somewhat at the mercies of Metallica's setup. I am going to see them as the headliner in a couple of months and am totally pumped, especially in support of LIBAD!

    I think if there was still enough money for record companies to employee people records would sell as much as they did to market the old ways. Also it starts with the family my nieces know you should buy music and collect records, CDs, DVDs, books, etc.

    I dig the new album. Maybe not so much at first, but after a few spins it gave some perspective about where they are as a band at this point (though I hope the next album is different). While everybody is entitled to their own opinions, it still sucks that both Matt and Johnny have went out of there way to say that they're fine with people hating it. I think the one thing that might have been off-putting Is that the music is avant-garde rather than the traditional A7X sound we're used to. I wouldn't be surprised if they took a ton of influence from Mr. Bungle because you can see it throughout the album.

    What’s the traditional a7x sound tho Every album they’ve made has sounded different Nightmare sounds nothing like city of evil/self titled Waking the fallen is nothing like httk or the stage Or are we just considering ‘traditional a7x’ what we’ve already listened to multiple times
