A really horribly hard rock/glam metal band whose music bears no resemblance to hardcore punk, regular punk, or metalcore.
kid1: Hey look i'm so hardcore i saw avenged sevenfold live!!
kid2 (the smart one): no you're not you're a fucking poser

The first time I saw this bands' video (on MTV,coincidentally...),I truly,truly though they were a fake band.
Seriously,I though they were a rip on all these lame glam metal revitalists (Bullets And Octane anyone?),kind of a Spinal Tap for the emo generation.
But,no,they are a REAL band. Aww,man...a rip on themselves.
Good grief,how could anybody claim this band are anything but hilarious?
Watch their "Sease The Day" video for a laugh.
ME: "HaHA,I love Avenged Sevenfold,they're such a great comedy band."
RandomStranger:"Err...dude,they're a real band."
ME:"NO....FUCKING....WAY"

Some shitty generic "metal core" band everyone says is so great because they have some faggot for a guitarist who is mediocre at guitar, the singer sounds like he's chocking on his own dick every time he sings and that's a fact. Biggest disgrace to metal since the nu metal trend
God Avenged Sevenfoldsuck so much I can't take it.

Possibly one of the biggest letdowns in the history of the music industry. At the beginning A7X was an extremely good hardcore band, but after a vocal injury, they pussied down. City of evil, their first album after the injury was decent, but a huge dissapointment to many loyal A7x fans. After City of evil came their self titled album, "avenged sevenfold", one of the biggest letdowns i have ever listened to. A band that once had some of the most deep and meaningful lyrics, are now singing about fucking dead bodies and sex/drugs in almost every song. And to keep going, their newest album "Diamonds in the Rough" was possibly one of the worst albums i've ever heard. Featuring songs like "flash of the blade" which takes ones of the coolest sounding intros, and throws it all away as soon as the vocals come in. again, all it talks about is sex/drugs/death.
My personal opionion is that M. Shadows is holding the band back now. Vocals are what defines a band for most people, and when they hear Shadows' shitty new voice, they turn it off right away.
This band features 2 instrumentalists who may be THE BEST in their field.
Synyster gates, one of the best guitarists in the world, and The Rev, one of the best drummers in the world.
I was a hardcore A7x fan back when they came out with their first album "Sounding the seventh trumpet" and was a fan all the way up until "City of Evil" figuring that i might give them a chance. Now i can say this,
"sevenfold is dying, and the only thing they can do to stop it is kick the singer and get back into hardcore"
"dude avenged sevenfold used to be the bomb, but now they totally suck"
"fish"

A band which originated from Orange County, CA. As of now they have a bare able tone to the music and just awful lyrics.However, the fans of the proclaimed, "best band ever," are extremely ignorant. Many claim to be tough but are actually full of hubris. If you don't know what hubris is you are most likely one of the 12 year old fans that the band has adapted.
Most people heard a song at the end of the popular game( even more popular than the band) Call of Dudy: Black ops 2. So that is where the 12 year old fans come from.
Ignorant fan:" hey reject, you should check out avenged sevenfold"
Me:"oh you know, I would but, I would rather not have meaningless, mumbling, lyrics yelled at me through my headphones"

The biggest sell-outs in history. Their first CDs were absolutley amazing. They were my favorite band for the longest time. Then City of Evil came out. THE WORST thing I've ever heard. They go from unique underground metal band to #1 on TRL. The most disgraceful thing a band can do.
Avenged Sevenfold has failed us all

A band that emerged during the hardcore scene. After their first two CD's, they changed up their act, began to suck, and sold out. Selling out and Avenged Sevenfold are now two closely linked verbs.
"Hey dude, have you heard Metallica's new CD?"
"Dude, they Avenged Sevenfolded when they released Saint Anger."
