For A7X the sky went black on December 28, 2009 when their drummer Jimmy ‘The Rev’ Sullivan was found dead at his home. A mere 28 years of age Jimmy had passed away only a few weeks before he was to join his bandmates to begin work on their fifth record.
They were one of the most popular and controversial bands of their generation and whatever they chose to do would inevitably make waves, polarize opinion and further cement their reputation as a great band with grand ambitions.
Since then everything has changed for AVENGED SEVENFOLD. They hired Mike Portnoy who quit DREAM THEATER in the meanwhile, recorded an awful sellout stadium album, which sounded like half-assed AC/DC were playing the Black Album by Metallica on steroids and finally quit their record label (Warner) in a Bam-Wham-Thank-You-Ma’am style that caused massive erections among journalists across the globe.
What other writers call progressive ('Creating God','Paradigm'), I would call useless and pointless. What others call dramatic ('Simulation') I would call semi-repetitive and banal.
To say that AVENGED SEVENFOLD are back in a big way would be a sheer lie. It’s fair to say though that any other band would have killed to have a tune as massive as most music, recorded for this album in their outings, but it’s also true that despite sounding big, this music is missing heart and soul, the heart and soul of The Rev.
