    FYI, that Flamengo guitar solo at the end is played by Papa Gates (Syn's Father) at the first part, then Syn played at the second part, and then they played togheter for the rest.

    • @mastod0n1
      @mastod0n1 Před 4 měsíci

      Papa Gates also makes a few appearances in other A7X songs after City of Evil. Can't remember which ones off the top of my head. I think one was a B-side song and one was on The Stage.

    This album fuckin rules, no weak songs and the guitar work is stellar, city of evil and waking the fallen are both great front to back with no skips. The wicked end from the same record is awesome, killer guitar work. “Save me” is also a must, maybe their magnum opus song

  • @Aiden9David
    @Aiden9David Před 11 měsíci +48

    The most underrated A7X song. They've never played it live, basically for the reasons you said with how weird and hard the transitions are but it's definitely one of their more unique songs ever just with the fast acoustic second half and piano fills, it's really not similar to any other A7X song imo

  • @DeadWirePromotions

  • @billahler7728

    I believe the acoustic solo at the end is Brian Haner and Brian Haner Jr (Gates). Freaking tasty riff.

  • @ericmojave6061

  • @Twinspinner

    Sidewinder is such an underrated song, as a kid I probably listened to it just as much if not more than Bat Country or Beast and the Harlot

    "Game over" gave me a "city of evil" vibe since the first tmie, and I loved it! People act live A7X had never experimented with new things. On their traxx podcast they talk about the hate this album got at first haha now it's such a classic!

    • @DeadWirePromotions
      @DeadWirePromotions Před 11 měsíci +2

      I remember when I first heard “Bat Country” when it came out. It reminded me of 80’s shred metal. It was different from “Waking the Fallen”, but I was hooked on it.

    They have never actually played this song live! Next suggestion from me, would 100% be Save Me! I am producer as well, and to me, that is a juggernaut of a song! Probably my fav from these guys! The Rev was my inspiration to learn how to play drums, but I still listen to this cool a$$ band!

  • @juanroamillan
    @juanroamillan Před 11 měsíci +9

    This was the album that introduced me to A7X.. I used to play Burnout Revenge and Beast and the Harlot was part of the soundtrack.
    Home internet access was just becoming a thing here in Mexico, so I would search for this album on Limewire and Ares and spent HOURS downloading each song. Then I got in love with M.I.A. and Strenght of the World.
    Betrayed, Sidewinder, Blinded in Chains, The Wicked End.. THERE IS NOT A SINGLE BAD SONG IN THIS WHOLE ALBUM.
    Ever since then, I've been a MASSIVE fan of these guys. I know there are way more complex, more famous or more technical bands out there, but for me A7X will foREVer be the BEST band ever. 🦇💀👑

  • @102ndsmirnov7

    I get it though, Waking the Fallen and CoE are miiiiles apart, so i can only imagine what it was like to listen to CoE for the first time as a fan in 2005

  • @cfishernb
    @cfishernb Před 11 měsíci +3

    The best part about this entire album is I loved all the big songs shortly after it came out, then over the years grew to love the non singles far more than those big songs. Only song that feels weak to me anymore is Seize The Day and that was my favorite song 16 years ago in my sad emo boy days lmao

    • @noobslayer7564
      @noobslayer7564 Před 11 měsíci

      I've had this exact same turn around. My intro to A7X was hearing bat country on the radio when I was kindergarten age. As a teen, I loved Afterlife and Beast and the Harlot. As an adult, I've grown to love every deep cut on every album and I don't listen to the hits near as often (although they're always on the playlist because they're all great songs)

    • @DeadWirePromotions
      @DeadWirePromotions Před 11 měsíci

      “Seize the Day” is pretty much A7X’s “November Rain”. Especially when u listen to Syn’s solo.

  • @stan_meow3778
    @stan_meow3778 Před 7 dny

    Such an underrated song and one of my favorites. It takes on so many twists and turns and is so catchy and makes me feel as if I’m a snake slithering around looking for my next victim. Then the acoustics and the drums at the end is one of the best outros from A7X. Glad to see you were grooving to the beat as I always do when I listen to this. 😁 Your reaction was everything!

    This song is special to me. I only listened to 80s rock, and hated 00 rock/metal. My sister had this song on her mp3 player and i heard it. I fell in love with the band. They were like a perfect modern mix of metallica and iron maiden. After looking through their other songs, they quickly became my favorite band.

      The new album threw me off at first w/ how much they crossed genres in it, but after a few listens, I’m diggin how it sounds. U can definitely hear Gates leaning into his jazz fusion background on several songs. A couple also have some Sinatra influences as well.
