At around 4:25 this evening we received a comment in the new Schecter Guitar Ad entry that we posted in response to this one .
We didnt think much of it at all until the band posted the following at approx 5pm PST and a puzzle piece appeared on their official website:
WARN EVERYONE THAT #THEA7XNIGHTMARE IS COMING AND YOU WILL BE REWARDED
We checked the authenticity of the comment and a few other things and all we can say is, THEY’RE LISTENING.

Comment by AshleySevenfold May 27, 2010 @ 5:56 pmCreepy…but good to know they’re listening. I’m very curious about this puzzle piece. I spotted bits of design on it…maybe a field or some flowers. Puzzling ;)!
Comment by Kel May 27, 2010 @ 5:56 pmYES! that is what i was thinkin to :P a field of flowers at night… its good to no im not the only one ;)
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 6:37 pmEdges are gonna be all pretty like a moonlit field, but then toward the middle, it’s gonna get all, um well, Nightmarey.

Comment by Stephanie Cote May 27, 2010 @ 5:56 pmDamn. I’m gonna have to call half and half on first comment between me and Erica Aiden.
Comment by Chandler Fyfe May 27, 2010 @ 5:56 pmit looks like branches from a flower bush of some sort. didn’t think they’d do anything like that for the album cover. eh, they’re avenged. they can do whatever they want. :)

HELP HELP WE’RE BEING STALKED!
Nah, just kidding. I think the whole thing is really quite cool. My Twitter list might not think the same thing…bitches had better start listening to me about how awesome this album is going to be. ^_^
Comment by Sarah May 27, 2010 @ 6:00 pmLet’s make this a trending topic! Right now goonies is a trending topic! Let’s beat it!
Comment by Jmac May 27, 2010 @ 6:01 pmDitto, man. I would frigging love to see it in the trending topics.
Comment by Sarah May 27, 2010 @ 6:03 pmThey’ve commented on articles prior to this. Using the name A7X they were referring to themselves as avenged and saying “We” this and “we” did that. Pretty cool when I first saw it
Comment by PeteA7X May 27, 2010 @ 6:01 pmI’m glad I’m not going crazy because I’ve seen them comment before. Wish I could remember which post I seen it in….
Comment by Andrea May 27, 2010 @ 6:15 pmAnyone can change the name to A7X here… that doesn’t mean it’s actually Avenged Sevenfold posting.
Comment by PM7X May 27, 2010 @ 6:17 pmThe reason this seems to be them is because they said something no one else knew about and they posted here what they just posted on their site a day later.
Thats whats so beast about Deathbat News! It REALLY is the first place to find A7X updates even from the band itself XD
Comment by Ryan May 27, 2010 @ 6:59 pmlol, so sick!
Comment by Andrew May 27, 2010 @ 7:14 pmmaybe deathbat news is avenged sevenfold….
Comment by zach May 27, 2010 @ 8:43 pmOh goodness, hah.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 8:51 pmhaha :)
Comment by zach May 28, 2010 @ 12:42 amI thought so! Wish I could remember which posts they were in….
Comment by Andrea May 27, 2010 @ 6:17 pmWe think you are gullible. Anyone can have the name A7X. pretty cool eh?
Comment by A7X May 27, 2010 @ 6:52 pmdude anyone can change the name to a7x. the mods on DBN just deleted my post.
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 7:01 pmAre you talking about your comment that’s right above this one? Because Im pretty sure it’s there.
Also, the comment in the post didn’t have “A7X” as name. We checked it out and authenticated it before making our post.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 7:14 pmwell then what was the name of the comment?
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 7:24 pmThere was no name to it, that’s apparent by the screen cap in this post.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 7:26 pmdont get smart with me assholes
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 7:46 pmYou’re more then welcome to take your negativity elsewhere because it’s not welcomed on this website.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 7:54 pmsorry, was being sarcastic more than anything. not trying to be a dickhead here. love the site! keep up the good work
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 8:06 pmThank you.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 8:08 pmkiss ass
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 9:07 pmdeathbatnews, I think what Anonymous is saying here is a response to what PeteA7X said (“Using the name A7X they were referring to themselves…”) that just because it says A7X it doesn’t mean it IS Avenged Sevenfold. I’ve seen some comments where it said A7X or something and someone was trying to make it look like it’s actually Avenged Sevenfold talking…
Comment by PM7X May 27, 2010 @ 9:04 pmWith this comment from earlier it shows that it actually is A7X because they posted something that no one else knew… but just because someone puts A7X as the name doesn’t mean it is A7X… and it seems that some people believe that.
I understood what that person was saying, but they were being rude about it. If fans want to use “A7X” as their ‘name’ when posting here that’s fine as long as they arent claiming to be the band, that won’t be allowed.
As far as Anonymous goes, all is good here now :)
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 9:12 pmBy the way I have a question. I was wondering if you considered letting users have their own profiles here and permanent names? I’m not sure how that works and if it’s possible here but have you thought about it?
Comment by PM7X May 27, 2010 @ 9:34 pmI really like that idea too!
Comment by Andrea May 28, 2010 @ 7:03 amLove these guys passionately. Hope they’re doing as well as they’ve just claimed.
Comment by Monica May 27, 2010 @ 6:01 pmoh this is just to damn cool. they can creep on us all they want! lol
Comment by dani May 27, 2010 @ 6:01 pmmaybe if you put #THEA7XNIGHTMARE on your twitter status it will appear faster.
Comment by Zombeee May 27, 2010 @ 6:01 pm… <3

Comment by Mary May 27, 2010 @ 6:02 pmLol, the amazing. They’re fuckin ninjas
Comment by Alaina May 27, 2010 @ 6:03 pmxD Can’t wait to see the whole album ocover once the puzzle is finished
Can’t wait to see them in Buffalo :D
I bet they’re laughing at us right now, haha.
Comment by Scratch May 27, 2010 @ 6:06 pmAgreed. They’re probably laughing at how we’re freaking out :p
That’s creepy,yet so amazing at the same time ._.!
Comment by Derek May 27, 2010 @ 6:14 pmI’d be laughing my ass off, too, if I were them.
I wonder if they ever creep on some of the fan fictions people write about them, hahaha. They should film their reactions.
Comment by Scratch May 27, 2010 @ 9:42 pmawesome XD

#THEA7XNIGHTMARE was a trending topic in the UK a little while ago, and is currently a trending topic in Los Angeles!
Comment by SaraLeann May 27, 2010 @ 6:33 pmThis just made my day!!
Comment by james May 27, 2010 @ 6:34 pmAnother reason why they are my favorite band. Damn, I can’t wait to see them in Columbus again.
Comment by Andy May 27, 2010 @ 6:37 pmI’m so there! I was freaking out when they canceled the Cleveland date. But rejoiced like a motherfucker when I saw the Columbus one because it’s closer to home, lol.
Comment by Scratch May 27, 2010 @ 9:43 pmThis just makes me that much more proud to be a fan. I check this site everyday and the fact that they took the time to notice that so many other fans do too and to use it as another way to get us worked up is amazing. I love them.

Comment by Katrine May 28, 2010 @ 9:51 amThis is goingto be the greatest rock albumin history:)
Comment by Se7en May 27, 2010 @ 6:51 pmthere is just so fucking much emotion and history and passion poured into this album.
It could be never be duplicated.
This album is goig to change music forever and go down in history.

Comment by Nick May 27, 2010 @ 7:03 pmnvm being gone a day or two and i missed it lol.
Comment by Nick May 27, 2010 @ 7:12 pmThose have all been posted.
Comment by deathbatnews May 27, 2010 @ 7:13 pmThat is insane, im so excited to see what they are going to do with the puzzle!!
Comment by Derek Williams May 27, 2010 @ 7:11 pmI am excited I love that are listening I think it may be the album cover
Comment by SummerA7X May 27, 2010 @ 7:15 pmif you save it as a picture the file name is:
Comment by BC May 27, 2010 @ 7:58 pm11Piece_1_Nightmare-Cover-Puzzle_copy_0 (1)
it is the cover and its 11 pieces total
the more i think about it the more it makes sense if you include this week there are 10 more weeks until july 27th when the album comes out so they are going to add one part every week and maybe the last two the week before i could be wrong but it makes sense to me does it make sense to anyone else?
ahhh
Comment by rossy May 27, 2010 @ 7:22 pmLOVE YOU GUYSSSS
what lurkers haha. so excited.
Comment by Katie May 27, 2010 @ 8:02 pmI see someone is creeping.
Comment by Jules May 27, 2010 @ 8:05 pmI’m pretty sure it’s barbed wire, not flowers. I zoomed way in on it, and that’s what it looks like to me. So I also approve of Sevenfold’s sketchy creeper-ness. :)
Comment by Mary B May 27, 2010 @ 8:12 pmi also saw little blue dots through out the picture when i zoomed in maybe its just my compter lol
Comment by BC May 27, 2010 @ 8:22 pmwhat if we don’t want to make a twitter? do i still get rewarded if i do it on myspace? lol or maybe just for being a hardcore fan?
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 8:53 pmi would think so bc they have a myspace page and it may not even mean that everyone has to say that on twitter everyone could be way off
Comment by BC May 27, 2010 @ 9:05 pmummm who would win a fight? avenged sevenfold or a hurricane?
Comment by Anonymous May 27, 2010 @ 9:04 pmthats not even a hard question:)

I bought a sweatshirt at that show that I still wear haha, you guys always were good dudes, good to see you havent lost touch :-). Havent caught you guys live since 04′!!! I think I will have to find a way to one of your several California dates. CHEERS.
PS: I lost my father 5 years ago, stay strong, you will be OK. You will love the person you discover within through this experience, peace.
