  2. Andrea Hubbell says

    I think Avenged Sevenfold is an okay band, as in I like their instrumental sound a lot but their lead vocals don’t do anything for me. But I completely agree with what Manuel said about the album art…it’s not eye-catching or unique. It doesn’t really seem to be something special.

  3. CHris says

    you lot can go jump off a cliff. A7X rules and since when are u lot in a position to criticize? I havent seen albums of bands with u in them….

  5. Tyler says

    I agree with the last two, the only way you can criticize anyone is if you have been in the cituation yourself and have the room to talk about it.

  6. Strader says

    Yeah I agree its probably not the best cover, however A7X doesn’t need flashy album covers. Their music sells it’s self. You’d think people would get tired of the “Deathbat”.

    P.S. Nike never changed their logo and their and their doing just fine

  7. Martyr says

    Five to two, you lose…

    and if you don’t like their music, then why take time out of your day when you could be doing something progressive like finding a good taste in music.

  9. Jon Gregory says

    You don’t know what the hell your talking about. Do some research before you go shooting your damn mouth off. The Death Bat (the skull with wings) is A7X’s logo. If you look at the Waking The Fallen outer sleeve, it’s the exact opposite as this album cover. And as for their artwork not being good, by the CD and look in side the cover booklet and behind the CD and see if you still think the art work is bad. Think before you say something fool.

  10. Synner D says

    as said before A7X doesnt need the flashy CD covers there a great band and M. Shadows vocal are the best

  11. serendipity says

    I agree with Martyr if you don’t like ’em why waste your time. This album is amazing, i’m going to see them live on wednesday and can’t wait…i think i should point out i’m sitting in England writing this and for them to have fans so far away from Cali…they gotta be doin summit right.

  13. a7xfanx1million says

    You guys have no clue what you’re talking about…M.Shadows is the best and they don’t need some smart ass people saying that they are not good, well you can take those words and eat them because they are the best FUCKING BAND IN THIS WORLD!!!! Can’t wait til this friday!!

  14. Kabowlb says

    Avenged Sevenfold is amazing i’d like to see anyone who says this is pathetic to draw something better!

  15. MetalMonkey says

    You people that hate the album cover and think A7X sux are probably Michael Bolton fans or something – you drool, and A7X rulz!

  17. Becky says

    i think the cover is just fine.
    to those people that said it sucked:
    album art doesn’t sell music, music sells music.
    and this is byfar the best album i’ve ever heard.
    if you want to bash someone’s music because of the album cover, well then fuck you.
    you better have some serious shit to back that up.
    because they don’t need crazy shit on their covers to sell their cd.

  18. the warden says

    i bet those two are the kind of people that turn on the radio and hear the ending to one of the songs and think they know everything about the band…
    besides i bet they cant do any better.
    in fact i bet they can even play an instrument
    besides if the death bat is so lame then why is it an international icon?
    over 9 million people world wide have the death bat tattooed somwhere on there body

    and besides all the fashion that follows a7x you have to take into consideration that they are the most original band to come out since 1999
    i mean everyone else is just a copycat version of another band.
    so i say you two losers can go fuck yourselfs and do us all a favor… go back to your mommys basement and listen to your aqua albums

  19. theRev says

    anyone know where to find the art from the inside of the book online. if you have the album you know its pretty badass, i want it for my desktop

  20. Viktor says

    First, to the first two–if you don’t like them, why are you wasting your time bitching about how much you hate them.

    Second, its a great composition. Its not to crazy…it is designed to bring the focus straight there. Its intended for drawing in fans that know of them(deathbat logo) and also to spark interest in browsers. In fact, plenty of other huge musicians have done similar things when it comes to album artwork. Metallica(Black album), The Beatles(White album), Sigur Ros(Ágætis Byrjun,Svefn-G-Englar, (), and Von) etc. A lot of times musicians don’t want catchy or flashy album artwork because they want their music to speak for itself. Another example of basic album artwork would be Coldplay. Nothing to crazy there. Plus when you have gotten such big international recognition, there really isn’t a need to design something intense…is it the most creative, no. But its there logo and it sells. Thus the Rolling Stones. The put their stamp on their album Forty Licks, and there yah go!

    I could probably go on more, but I don’t feel the need to. Avenged Sevenfold is amazing and each individual member is talented.

  21. Kevin M says

    I would like to revise what Martyr said:

    Instead of saying two against five, I would say two against over one hundred thousand.

    Of course not everyone likes Avenged Sevenfold music, but you are the only two I have heard of that would somehow happen upon an Avenged Sevenfold album cover and said bad stuff about it. Seriously, the only way to have found this was to search for “Avenged Sevenfold” as those are the only two tags.

    You two are those types of people who just get on your computer and search for something you haven’t heard much of and then make fun of it. I don’t enjoy The Jonas Brothers but you don’t see me searching up “The Jonas Brothers” and then insulting them.

  23. Billy says

    honestly ive always loved this band they’re music is amazing an the artwork inside the newest album is just incredible an anyone who has a problem with a7x has a problem with me

  24. SecretApprentice says

    A7X is one of the greatest bands to ever pick up ANY instuments they don’t fuking need crazy flashy and insaine artwork to have a GREAT album. I love this album cover in fact it takes me back to the “Waking the Fallen” album and their music has only gotten better and evolved into something that people never thought they were capable of, but they STILL made it frikin amazing. A7X is the best and no one can argue that!!!

  25. Brittany says

    I love A7X.
    they are the best band that ever lived, and if you dont like there album cover, you try to come up with something better then, huh?
    if you dont like a7x,you need to get a freaking brain.

  28. Mrs Vengeance says

    i agree that this album is not eye catching. but hello! have you seen their other artwork? its amazing. you cannot critisize the bands art work when they have artwork like whats on city of evil or access all areas or sound the seven trumpets. have you seen the artwork INSIDE the album? its pretty dammned amazing and u have no right to critisize it if yu havnt done n e artwork for albums yourself.
    pluss who cares if yu like the band or not. no one cares what you like. its just what an individual as themselves like. i love them but im not guna have a fist fight with someone who would rather listen to the blackout crew, or cascada. xx

  29. Leslie says

    The first two who wrote this comment should die and go fuckin straight to hell b/c they need to check their fuckin brains or kill themselves
    They should at least listen to the music and try to like them
    If they still dont likee them, I’ll go find where ever they live and I’ll cut their throats, and hang them by their reproductive organs!!
    Yeah I would do that if you mess With Avenged Sevenfold!! They kickass and A7X better keep rocking until I fuckin die!!!!

  30. Maria says

    Hey why are you guys arguing with them!We all know avenged sevenfold is the best so let them have their little ignorant views! It’s awsome to hear people sticking up for them though.I always fight hard when I here fuck wits who no nothing say shit about them!

  31. Maria says

    By the way…Has any one tried to paint the centerfold picture of the self titled album? I started it and it took me 3 months to get up the balls to have anouther go at it- it was that fucking intense!

  32. RICH says

    DOES ANYONE CARE THAT THE BAND OVERKILL INVENTED AND TRADEMARKED THIS LOGO OVER 22 YEARS AGO? AVENGED IS AN AVERAGE BAND WHO RIPPED OFF A THRASH LEGEND’S LOGO! THERE HAVE BEEN LAWSUITS ON THIS, THIS IS NOT A JOKE!

  33. JC says

    fuck off bitches! a7x is the shit! if you dont like them, dont listen to them and stop criticizing them because your lives are worthless. now take a minute to pull your head out of your ass and realize that nobody wants to here you bitch about something that you have no room to talk about!
    PS. i love the album artwork

  34. TheDyingRiot says

    Everybody in this comment section is right. Even that psycho chick above(Leslie). Avenged Sevenfold is the shit. I started listening to them last year and I already want all their albums. Even my grandma enjoys songs suchs as Afterlife, Deargod, Wicked End, and so on. The music sells itself and each one of them are more talented than any of you here! I fact, The Rev is my hero. I thinked hes the best damn drummer ever. I kinda think hes better than Lars Ulrich(Mettallica)! I hope I can play drums like him, I can only play a couple songs on drums. Sure thier ALBUM COVER isn’t detailed but I honestly write on SCHOOL ACADEMIC BOOKS with their name and signitures. Avenged Sevenfold rokks forever! It’s a real feel good that everybody sticks up for these guys! But whatever, i’m only a 13 year old.

    Rock forever A7X !..!, (^v^) ,!..!

  36. Lindsay. says

    i love A7X they are my all time favorite band! and the whole “logo” thing, who gives a fuck what the picture is of? as long as they have good music it doesn’t matter, and hello? have you seen the cover of their ‘Live in the LBC and Diamonds in the rough’ cover? its not just the death bat, its at the top of their website, avengedsevenfold.com take a good long look if you’re gonna bitch about boring logo’s and shit.

  37. a7x reaper says

    a7x are simply the best you cant fault them they are awesome if u dont like them you clearly are insane and if that is the case why are you wasting your time moaning about them anyway GET A LIFE

  38. Vanez says

    hey fuck off….why should it have to be outrageous and eyecatching…u know its a good fuckin band ur buying the cd and if u dont like it then fuck off and don’t listen to them….get over it.

    I think it was made that way just to say “purely fuckin A7X”
    The deathbat is all u need to know its them man…c’mon.

  39. Small Pox says

    i disagree, i think its very bold
    its not a mush of colours like allot of album covers are these days and there clearly there isnt a artist behind this trying to show off! live in LBC’s artwork is fantastic! check out the inside tray art by drew frizell, its utterly fantastic!

    and as for this comment “do everyone a favor and stop making music”, well could YOU kindly do everyone a favour and stop posting venomous comments!

    just becasue we cant see you, doesnt meen you can abuse that right! many of us are fans and i think your being awfully selfish

  41. Lovin A7X says

    Avenged Sevenfold is my absolute favorite band. As many people said already, they don’t need flashy covers to sell their music. They are amazing and amazingly talented. I have been addicted to A7x for 3 years now, ever since a classmate told me I was a deprived child because I had never heard of A7x. He was right.

  42. SynysterloveX7 says

    Avenged sevenfold is an amazing band live or on cd…I seen them live 2 weeks ago an they sound great… Now a days all bands sound the same an have the same beat… Synyster gates Is AMAZING at guitar…. along With Zacky V…..

  44. Riddles6 says

    I love it, It’s simple. Not to much but not to little. The way they design it on shirts is amazing too! (As she says wearing one at this moment:P) Their an amazing band:)
