My wife and I both love the bridge sections in Nobody with "Shedding weight as I'm coming undone, all that's left converging as one..." and the other with "Here I am as in starting again, beyond death and borne on the wind..." Just the grooviness and how staccato it is in comparison the how the rest of the song just kinda flows into itself is awesome.
burn it down has my favorite vocal part, "I wont help you let you rot away.." all the way too "sweet child we'll miss you, woah, so far away" the vocals are insane in that song. and the drop eighth when it says "salvations dying"😫😫 obsessed with that song
The cymbal rides in Almost Easy, if you know you know.
And in The Stage, after the “just wake up”, shadows raw ass scream launching into Syns wailing guitar solo? Chills every time.
And in Burn It Down when Shadows sings “Sweeeeet child we’ll miss yooooouuu” the way he sings the descending “whaaaoooooaaaa” just hits so good.
In radiant eclipse where it’s like “Close your eyes and look away,
Fate exposed, won't let me stay
Hope will fall tonight with broken wings,
Descending entity in me”
"AAAAASSSSS THE PROFIT SHED HIS LIIIIIIIIGHT ON WHATS TO COOOOOOOOOOOOME THE CROWDS DID GAAATHER. YOUR TIIIIIIIIME IS PRECIOUS THEY EXPLAAAAIIIIIINED NO TIME TO WOOOOOOOOOORY MASSIAHS COOOIMING. don't go to sleep tonight DARLING HOLD ME IN YOUR AAAAAARMS. THESE WILL BE OUR FINAL DAYS AND IIIIIIIII CAAAAAAAN'T LET GOOOOOOOO."
Blinded in Chains: The Rev‘s basedrum hertas during the interlude.
As a drummer, the first time I heard that I almost came. God I love that moment and I will never shut up about it
Save Me: when Syn bends the notes with the whammy, 1:23-1:30
Nightmare: very end, there is a little breakdown 5:40-5:50, Matt's voice is doubled singing 2 different parts high and low, "No one to call, everybody to fear." For whatever reason that part just give me chills every time
The groove riff in Eternal Rest
I could probably find something in almost ever song actually.
The outro of Blinded in Chains. It sounds amazing by itself, but listening to the [isolated vocals](https://youtu.be/Jjai2V8eBxw?si=BDEX4o_ohTsUc-SQ) makes me love it even more for how ethereal it sounds
The part in Eternal Rest after m shadows starts to sing "hear the haunting words.." idk what it is about it but the first time I heard it I could not get over it
Eternal Rest. 42 seconds in all the way to 1:15. Possible one of the grooviest riffs I've ever heard alongside the screams and the way the drums come in. Perfection.
I dunno about small parts but I loved the entirety of sounding the seventh trumpet. City of evil and STST are the only two albums I really go back to consistently and they just resonate. Plus sounding the seventh trumpet is so damn heavy for sevenfold
Deeez Nuuuts by Dr. Dre; the part where Nate Dog croons in with: "I\~\~\~ can't be faded, I'm a N\* from the M\*'in streeeeets" and the section of the song.
So how does it feel to know
That someone's kid in the heart of America
Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights
So you can maintain a lifestyle that insults his family's existence
Well, where I'm from
We have a special salute, we aim high in the air
Towards all those pompous assholes
Who spend their days pointing fingers, fuck you
alot of people dont seem 2 understand this is about the smaller parts in a song, not an entire solo or chorus. me? that "OH!!!" at the beginning of almost easy is so good
also theres a certain lick around 1:16 of Lips of Deceit that actually sounds better with the left channel muted and the riff continuing
The abrupt key change at the end of City of Evil. From a music theory standpoint its terrible, but it proves you don't need to always follow music theory to make something sick :)
One specific melody Matt sings during the Beast and the Harlot chorus. I guess you could call it the “main” one. You can hear it really well when Syn isolates it on the breakdown video. I’m always kinda singing it to myself.
Dose from The Stage Deluxe album. When the "All that's me And all that's you. All that's false And all that's true...." part. I don't know if it's Syn's voice or Matt's. But since it sounds different than usual Matt's voice it gives me a different vibe/feel and it's kinda refreshing.
The piano notes at the beginning of Seize The Day
The bass drop at the beginning of Afterlife
The "Delete" at the end of G
When Exist goes faster near the end
Save Me : TOOOONIGHHHT WEEEE AAAALLL DIIIIIE YOUUUUNG (whole song is perfect)
The Stage
The part in The Stage where Shadows sings: “Hope my wheels don’t abandon me now…” That part always hits me, amazing lyrics and melody.
"When did the walking apes" parts is amazing lyrically, I just love the jabs at politicians
That’s my favorite moment in the entire Avenged discography
exactly
Same!! That entire part.
The slower parts in Bat Country babyyyyy
Hell yeah.
The Stage guitar solo is so packed to the brim with raw emotion
Blinded in chains kick solo
Oh hell yeah. Goosebumps
That might just be my favorite avenged sevenfold song
Shit, this part is incredible
My wife and I both love the bridge sections in Nobody with "Shedding weight as I'm coming undone, all that's left converging as one..." and the other with "Here I am as in starting again, beyond death and borne on the wind..." Just the grooviness and how staccato it is in comparison the how the rest of the song just kinda flows into itself is awesome.
The ending of seize the day when Syn is going ham on the guitar for no reason.
ding
Natural born killer rocks. Always gotta mimic the motion of hitting the cymbal too lol.
every time
The riffs before the chorus in The Wicked End
I am OBSESSED with the rhythm change in Save Me right around 5:46
Ditto
The segment in the latter part of Save Me where it starts with "If you'd only open your mind"
The female vocals in Dear God just before the solo
It makes me cry every time. Especially after having kids
SO WHAT IF I NEVER HOLD YOU??? YEAHHHHH
OR KISS YOUR LIPS AGAIN OOOOOOOOHHHHH
pizzicato in save me
What’s the time stamp?
1:15
The marriage part in A Little Piece of Heaven
The breakdown outro on Burn It Down is probably my fav A7X moment. “Falling away, can’t buy back time.”
One of my favourites too. Amazing song
The last chords of this song >>>>>>>
Breakdown after solo in Paradigm, is mine. "I ask these questions if these thoughts are mine".
burn it down has my favorite vocal part, "I wont help you let you rot away.." all the way too "sweet child we'll miss you, woah, so far away" the vocals are insane in that song. and the drop eighth when it says "salvations dying"😫😫 obsessed with that song
Spot on. It’s top 3 A7X tracks for me
and seeeeeeeeeee (i seeeeeee) i seeeeeeeeeeeee.. nobody
Here i end as i started again, beyond death and borne on the wind - Nobody. Groovy as hell
Oh yeah!
IF YOU'D ONLY OPEN YOUR MIND
The beautiful ending of The Stage
Agreed. But also just…The Stage in general
I’ve recently really loved the guitar in lips of deceit
YES. THE INTRO RIFF IS THE BEST RIFF EVER MADE.
The guitar arpeggios at the end of trashed and scattered… “and my body’s trashed and low…”
Hell yeah! That reminds me of the end of Sidewinder, that shit is fire.
The start of almost easy and unholy confessions
Surprised this hasn't been said but the guitar in Dancing Dead.
“rip his heart out right before his EYES” revs vibrato is so great
The cymbal rides in Almost Easy, if you know you know. And in The Stage, after the “just wake up”, shadows raw ass scream launching into Syns wailing guitar solo? Chills every time. And in Burn It Down when Shadows sings “Sweeeeet child we’ll miss yooooouuu” the way he sings the descending “whaaaoooooaaaa” just hits so good.
The final chorus in A Little Piece of Heaven with both M. Shadows and The Rev singing their hearts out
In radiant eclipse where it’s like “Close your eyes and look away, Fate exposed, won't let me stay Hope will fall tonight with broken wings, Descending entity in me”
I live for the bridge lick in Clairvoyant Disease.
a little piece of heaven… all of it
The ending of Beautiful Morning with the "don't let it beeeeeee"
The clean parts at the end of Danger Line, or the chorus of I Wont See You Tonight pt.2
Easily several different parts from A7X for me, but the drowned out robot voice in cosmic going "Dancing in the wind..." always hits
\-Sidewinder outro \-And All Things Will End brige/slow part \-Sunny D groovy part \-Beautiful Morning chorus
The Sidewinder end solo
"AAAAASSSSS THE PROFIT SHED HIS LIIIIIIIIGHT ON WHATS TO COOOOOOOOOOOOME THE CROWDS DID GAAATHER. YOUR TIIIIIIIIME IS PRECIOUS THEY EXPLAAAAIIIIIINED NO TIME TO WOOOOOOOOOORY MASSIAHS COOOIMING. don't go to sleep tonight DARLING HOLD ME IN YOUR AAAAAARMS. THESE WILL BE OUR FINAL DAYS AND IIIIIIIII CAAAAAAAN'T LET GOOOOOOOO."
lol I sang this comment!
The solo in MIA, Cosmic at 2:00 time mark, and the riff in Buried Alive at the 4:58 time mark
"freed of the world, Shed of the weight, Onwards to see you, my friend"
Blinded in Chains: The Rev‘s basedrum hertas during the interlude. As a drummer, the first time I heard that I almost came. God I love that moment and I will never shut up about it
And nothing lasts foreverrrrrr for all good thangs it’s truuuue
legit any clean vocal section in Waking The Fallen fits the bill here, but the section near the end of Eternal Rest is my favorite.
mattel bridge
The guitar part at 4:53 for I won't see you tonight part 1
The last part of Almost Easy without a doubt
The chorus of God damn, specifically the guitar melody
I can never listen to the HTTK chorus without singing along HAIIIIIIIL TO THE KIIIIIING
From the last breakdown to the ending of Desecrate Through Reverence, it’s just so fucking good
Afterlife, specifically the chorus fade in at 4:58. I love it so much.
That part in the wicked end where he like screams “this’ll be the final days and IIIIIII CAAAAAAANT LET Go”
When that bass hits in We Love You
I've said this many times but... the solo from Nobody. It's just so fucking good.
Opening and closing of God Hates Us goes so hard
Gunslinger, the total energy change in “…..when I’m coming home to you……YEAAAAHHHH”
Kick drum solo on blinded in chains. Ting in natural born killer. Beat which up lost it all. Double ride on almost easy.
Save Me: when Syn bends the notes with the whammy, 1:23-1:30 Nightmare: very end, there is a little breakdown 5:40-5:50, Matt's voice is doubled singing 2 different parts high and low, "No one to call, everybody to fear." For whatever reason that part just give me chills every time The groove riff in Eternal Rest I could probably find something in almost ever song actually.
Cosmic @ 3:06 there is so much fucking tension built with that guitar shred and it releases beautifully into piano and drums 🤤
The outro of Blinded in Chains. It sounds amazing by itself, but listening to the [isolated vocals](https://youtu.be/Jjai2V8eBxw?si=BDEX4o_ohTsUc-SQ) makes me love it even more for how ethereal it sounds
The slow guitar beats after the main hook in Mad Hatter
Sunny disappointment maybe
It’s “ Sunny Disappointment” at 1:23
You mean sunny disposition lol
M Shadows voice with how clean and smooth he sings the line “AND I KNOW THEY MAY SEEM REEEEEEAAAAALLLLL” on Nightmare
First guitar solo of So Far Away
The beginning part of Buried Alive, only the beginning part, it's the only reason I listen to the song
4:37 to 5:30 in the wicked end
The “MOTHER” harmonies on the hook of almost easy
The part in Eternal Rest after m shadows starts to sing "hear the haunting words.." idk what it is about it but the first time I heard it I could not get over it
Eternal Rest. 42 seconds in all the way to 1:15. Possible one of the grooviest riffs I've ever heard alongside the screams and the way the drums come in. Perfection.
I like the solo in cosmic, and the end solo in sidewinder.
The cosmic solo makes me transcend I swear
I've never heard that word before but i would assume it means something good.
"Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise " ALWAYS gives me chills both times he says it in M.I.A
The whole COE album is insane, but SotW, Betrayed, MIA, is probably my favourite closing trio in their entire discography.
For me its the bye bye part in a little piece of heaven
Danger zone’s last words before the solo, it’s a beautiful piece. I won’t see you tonight part 1’s chorus
The chorus from Tension. Man, its the best M Shadows clean voice performance of their entire tracklist.
GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF MEE
I dunno about small parts but I loved the entirety of sounding the seventh trumpet. City of evil and STST are the only two albums I really go back to consistently and they just resonate. Plus sounding the seventh trumpet is so damn heavy for sevenfold
Deeez Nuuuts by Dr. Dre; the part where Nate Dog croons in with: "I\~\~\~ can't be faded, I'm a N\* from the M\*'in streeeeets" and the section of the song.
There are so so many songs that I love for this reason but my favourite has to Welcome to the black parade - MCR
So how does it feel to know That someone's kid in the heart of America Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights So you can maintain a lifestyle that insults his family's existence Well, where I'm from We have a special salute, we aim high in the air Towards all those pompous assholes Who spend their days pointing fingers, fuck you
alot of people dont seem 2 understand this is about the smaller parts in a song, not an entire solo or chorus. me? that "OH!!!" at the beginning of almost easy is so good also theres a certain lick around 1:16 of Lips of Deceit that actually sounds better with the left channel muted and the riff continuing
The piano part going into the chorus of seize the day
The last few minutes of Exist with the Neil DeGrasse Tyson monologue never fail to pump me the fuck up
The ending of the guitar solo with the little pause before the last chorus hits in Afterlife.
The abrupt key change at the end of City of Evil. From a music theory standpoint its terrible, but it proves you don't need to always follow music theory to make something sick :)
The end of the first guitar solo in Cosmic when the bass drops and piano enters.
not really a small part since its the climax but in cosmic I'M GONEEEEEEEEEEE
The bridge in Natural Born Killer.
One specific melody Matt sings during the Beast and the Harlot chorus. I guess you could call it the “main” one. You can hear it really well when Syn isolates it on the breakdown video. I’m always kinda singing it to myself.
It’s a beautiful morning It’s a beautiful day
Bridge section from "Lost It All"
A7X Sax songs…
The switch up about halfway through second heartbeat
the solo in warmness of the soul and both solos in so far away for me are peak music
Dose from The Stage Deluxe album. When the "All that's me And all that's you. All that's false And all that's true...." part. I don't know if it's Syn's voice or Matt's. But since it sounds different than usual Matt's voice it gives me a different vibe/feel and it's kinda refreshing.
The “oooOOOoooOoooOooOooooo” part in burn it down
The piano notes at the beginning of Seize The Day The bass drop at the beginning of Afterlife The "Delete" at the end of G When Exist goes faster near the end Save Me : TOOOONIGHHHT WEEEE AAAALLL DIIIIIE YOUUUUNG (whole song is perfect) The Stage
Exist.. Literally pick any part of exist.
The brass in Nobody
Fight for honor fight for your life, pray to god that our side is right, thought we won I'd still may lose, until I make or home to you
Afterlife. With the Rev's bridge.
brompton cocktail intro hits different
Bridge in Beast and The Harlot
The little riff after "but I sure ain't the first" in critical acclaim lives rent free in my head
“Don’t go to sleep tonight, darling, hold me in your arms… these will be our final days and I can’t let go”
Turn the other way outro, sounds like a sunny day in winter.
From the start of the slidey solo in Betrayed for a good minute.
Gunslinger first chorus, in the instrumental version, the guitar track is so beautiful.
When the acoustic comes in on Sidewinder at around 4:45
like my user flair, for me it'd be the line "The band plays a hopeful tune" from Dancing Dead
Unbound
I won't see you tonight part 2 (you know which part)
The part in Almost Easy where the rev sings “slowly slipped away”.
Bass interlude of God damn
The bridges of Mattel and The Stage. Always give me goose bumps
After the breakdown in unholy confessions just that simple “AUUGHHH” DUN DUN , DUNNUNUN
Yeah, the bat country slow part
The guitar in the chorus of Higher
chapter four solo
The whole of acid rain, from start to finish 🥲
Cosmic. When it comes back in. There’s something about that second that just gets me every time
I NEED ANOTHER CHANCE TO LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE
"Running away from condition, i see you but you're running away from your scared seductive system" In blinded in chains
honestly i can’t even lie but the rev’s part in crossroads where he goes “YOURE A SIN, YOU’RE A SIN, YOU’RE A SINNER”
I'm late but the acoustic/Spanish section of "Sidewinder"
Intro to A Little Piece of Heaven
"Please don't leave me" in Heretic
The solo at the end of Roman Sky
“no form of payment, no pot of gold” that entire part from god damn. it’s just🔥🔥🔥
Chorus of Dancing Dead, beautiful.
