A7X

Avenged Sevenfold
"Avenged Sevenfold"
The best.

As of October 30, 2007, one of the best rock bands in the world has finally released they're 4th studio album entitled "Avenged Sevenfold." The self-titled, 10-track album is by far the band's most creative piece to date offering new and unfamiliar musical experiences for the listener while maintaining they're signature style and sound. The 5-piece band has further pushed their artistic boundaries by refusing to conform to what people assume they should sound like, and rather to produce material that sounds best to them regardless of what others think. From beginning to end, the album never lets up and proves to be worthwhile experience.

Track Listing:

1. Critical Acclaim
2. Almost Easy
3. Scream
4. Afterlife
5. Gunslinger
6. Unbound (The Wild Ride)
7. Brompton Cocktail
8. Lost
9. Little Piece of Heaven
10. Dear God

The album is by far one of the band's best pieces incorporating new and exciting elements while lyrically utilizing their very most personal feelings to date. Not a dull moment exists throughout the album's entirety with tracks ranging from heavy guitar oriented thrash riffs, melodic country driven sounds, dramatic string and choir arrangements, groovy drum lines, to even Nightmare Before Christmasesque cinematic story lines. The variety in sound is amazing, all of which apart from the "normal" A7X sound, but all still very hard and very heavy as the band's previous efforts. The band has the courage to explore new heights in order to do what they do best: make music. Such passion in music cannot be ignored.

The album is phenomenal.
The album is art.
The album is music.
The album is Avenged Sevenfold.

**procrastination**

**I should be doing my homework...**

Today I woke up by 12 and enjoyed two recorded episodes of Friday Night Lights [great show] while eating Yen King fried rice.

I then realized I must make a comparative speech for class tomorrow.

**Why blog, I should be doing my homework**

I then later lounged in my room brainstorming topics for the speech. I eventually listened to various jams on the iTunes including: Versailles, Common, Kanye, The Roots, A7X, B2k, Ciara, Usher, Chris Brown, Augustana, and the Gazette...

**Why am I writing all this, I should be doing my homework...**

Now I'm Lulzing in my mind cuz i'm thinking of that procrastination video that Pat showed me...

**Wait WTF? I should be doing my homework...**

Its now almost 8 pm, I think I'll actually start my speech after 8 hours of procrastination.... who am i kidding? I'll be done by 12 midnight...

**I should be doing my homework.... but after dinner...**

on saturday I met Greg at his house around 6 or 7.
got some mmm....mmm... tasty JAM-ba Juice. [Pineapple flava is bomb!]
Greg and I traversed through town after that and went to our local Borders to checkout the usual aisles that we always go to. Nothing new.

Eventually ended up at Greg's where I played Devil May Cry 3 and died 1184823838 times.....
Partick played the PSP while Grant and Mashell just chillaxed.

I think I shit my pants after hearing the new Versailles...
Think of all the epic motion picture tunes by composers such as John Williams and Hans Zimmer x11000000000000....... thats a shit load of epic. Its a shit load of epic just chillin' in your shorts.

I want a horse to ride on stage......

12:29 am..

just got back from seeing SAW IV.... but more importantly got to hear "I.V." by X-Japan. pretty coo in high quality.

the film was cool. i had a little confusion, but cleared it up. I recommend it to those who obviously enjoyed the previous films. the ending of course left you with the signature "wtf?" and "oh shit" and "when's the next one?"

the homies and I are just chillin' at this moment, listening to youtube quality "I.V." and about to play marshell's new xbox 360. we're also talking to Taylor whose in the process of making his blog...

i'm hungry........

I.V.

cool.... first blog.

based off of recent events, i have come to the conclusion that today is just like any other Friday night: fun.

Before getting to the better parts of my day, I would of course have to...

****Patrick just said some gay shit right now...... [I hate him so much.....]****

So I went to my college classes today [9am-12pm]
1) speech - had a surprisingly good laugh with the teacher and Adam
- listened to 3 speeches
- got to bail out of class early and sit in my car to "study"
2) english 1 - boring
- test.... test on a book about instilling worthless ideas into the minds of those yearning for freedom both mentally and creatively.. why should i memorize one's personal theory on writing? it only molds me and drives me away from
being creative (something schools encourage).... oh well. thats life.
3) history 17 (US. Hist) - another test!
- destroyed pt.2 of the quiz [written essay portion] wrote a killer BS.
essay about how Europe was finally able to explore and colonize the
New World in the late 14oos...
- got pt.1 of quiz back [scantron]: 14/30...... 60% according to him...

so as usual the classes were a bummer, but once through with it i kicked it with my homey P-
Whizzle [Partick] and chilled at his house and ate MickeyD's. Marshell showed up for awhile before he went to work. Greg showed up to and chilled.

Patrick, Greg, and I went to joann's and bought banndannies.... visited Marshell at work (hella awkward...lol) then ate at Foster Freeze. Had a plenty of good Lol's, mostly of Grant and his stupid shit. (for example: sorta arrested, fight in davis, graffitti, super v-cut shirt, and jousting with his new ostriches)

now... we're blogging.

tonight: Saw IV with the crew, minus Ri-CHARD.....and mike....and mike......and taylor.....and walter......

[at the end credits, gonna jam to X-Japan "I.V."!!!!!]

fuck yea, x-japan!
