Hmmmmm when I click it, it attempts to load something but never actually does. Could be because of the mass flood of fans tying things up……idk though

Comment by Julian nunez

It won’t load, is a page to a secret link maybe? I don’t know, I JUST WANT TO HEAR!

Comment by Tabatha

maybe we have to SHARE the whatever this thing is, so we can all SEE it NOW?!

Comment by drummerboy5

GUYS IT NOT LOADING BECAUSE THE LINK IS BEING OVERUSED!! THATS ALL, GIVE UNTILL TOMORROW WHEN EVERYONE HAS CALMED DOWN AND TRY AGAIN, HOPEFULLY BY THAT TIME NOT SO MANY WILL BE TRYING TO USE IT AND IT SHOULD LOAD.

sorry i appear to be shouting but writing in capitals seemed to be the only way i could get as many peoples attention as possible, seeing as what im saying is true…

Comment by Anonymous

IT HAS TO DO WITH THE LYRICS.
SHARE IT.
THAT’S HOW YOU SEE IT.
LAWD.

Comment by synystersam

Comment by jax

It’s taking me to the same page, WTF?!

Comment by Anonymous

Click “Like” so that it gets SHARED with all your friends and maybe they will reward us???

Comment by a7x81

Of course I’m gonna click Like.

Comment by Aaron

Comment by xfaithavengedx

FACEBOOK IS OUT OF CONTROL THE FANS ARE CRAZY

Comment by Bre

Comment by BC

I just realized that the Itunes preorder tells you which songs are explicit.

Comment by Aaron

Haha yeah i thought that was pretty cool

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Very fair point lmao

Comment by GrungePrincess

Thats exactly what came to my head after I calmed down a little bit.

Comment by Anonymous

LOLOLOL

Comment by Natasha

Those words are actually lyrics to the song :D

Comment by Synester00

The page loaded for me, it’s just a post saying “Buried Alive”. It’s probably referring to the previous post, it must be lyrics from the song

Comment by Private Donut

it’s the song with lyrics. go to youtube and find it there

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

I THINK I WILL CHECK IT MUCH LATER MAYBE BY THEN EVERYONE MIGHT HACE CLAM DOWN A LITTLE BIT BECUASE MY TWITTER AND FACEBOOK ARE NUTS TO MANY A7X TRYNA GET INTO THE SAME LINK LOLZ

Comment by xfaithavengedx

Some people left a link of a VEVO video.

Comment by Hef

ive already been crying in my corner, you can join me and Alyssa

Comment by deen

I think I’ll take your offer to cry with you two. But I hope that it goes live by time I get off work tonight

Comment by Hef

Comment by beth

Comment by Noey

Try to SEE it [everybody going to it], now we all SHARE the common discomfort [of it being nothing]

Comment by John

Lmao

Comment by Victoria

Lol. If you read the comments from the first people to view it on Facebook you’ll realize that it’s a song.

Comment by Aaron

in order to SEE it you have to SHARE it NOW. So click the share button

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Us A7X fans always seem to crash sites or slow them down extremely…

Comment by Morgan

DBN said they’re trying to get it back up! :)

Comment by Aanchel

I’m not going to bed till i hear this song!!!

Comment by Jake

Yes, hopefully its back up soon
and your so quick about finding out about things DBN lol.

Comment by Julian nunez

I HEARD THE SONG!!! It f**king RAWKS!!!! of course that was never a question =)

Comment by Noey

Lucky mofo

Comment by Hef

Clearly, we’re all sharing this common discomfort now. Just one question, was there ever anything there? Did anyone at all get to hear it?

Comment by Kristina

It’s the song “Buried Alive” but fans overloaded the site so they’re in the process of getting it back up.

Comment by deathbatnews

Definitely a “didn’t think that through” moment. Oh well, we all have them.

Comment by Victoria

I just refreshed and saw it above, thank you! :)

Comment by Kristina

what did they expect to happen lol

Comment by deen

lol so you know that its not avenged trying to pull a trick on us

Comment by Lewis

Absolutely not, it’s the song.

Comment by deathbatnews

phew thank christ for that lol have u heard it cause link is still be werid going to wait till the morning

Comment by Lewis

Nope! Didn’t get a chance to hear it.

Comment by deathbatnews

How do you know this? Do A7X contact you directly? Lucky thing :)

Comment by Aanchel

The band doesnt, no.

Comment by deathbatnews

Oh man that suck saying that you give all the fans A7X news even before the band. They should thank you for all your hard work!

Comment by courtney591

YES!!! IT was and it was =)

Comment by Noey

Shadows is such a dirty little liar! Last time he played Modern Warfare 2 he said no new music until the album comes out. Guess he wanted us to be surprised.

Comment by Ricky Bobby

I love how so many people say that Avenged Sevenfold isn’t popular but how many bands can actually say that their fans overloaded a page??? A7X foREVer!!!!

Comment by Jake

I know right?? How awesome! LOL

Comment by Andrea

Is it the song or the lyrics?

Comment by Alex

The song.

Comment by deathbatnews

I got through but it started to act weird…its no trick and its another lyric video! They ask for us to share it and as soon as you agree it was suppose to unlock the content but it froze.

Comment by Anonymous

Someone just posted a bit of lyrics on facebook, not sure if it’s real but sounds sick;

I”LL PEEL AWAY THE SKIN, RELEASE THE DARK WITHIN!

Comment by Alex

those are lyrics, its working for me now.

Comment by lexxi

actually it’s both

Comment by Noey

Can’t wait to hear it!

Comment by Lisa

DBN, you know me not to question your word or anything.. i have the utmost respect for you, but are you POSITIVE that it’s the song? because i feel like they’re just fucking with us..

love you. <3

Comment by synystersam

Positive.

Comment by deathbatnews

It’s definitely the song. lol.

Comment by Marlz

it’s the song dude. If you really can’t get it to work go to youtube and listen to it. you have to hear it one way or another. It’s fucking awesome!!

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

GUYS, STOP CLICKING ON THE LINK HOPING THAT IT WILL SUDDENLY POP BACK UP. Try again in about half an hour or something…

Comment by Gabby

Never mind, it’s back up. YEEESSSSSSSS

Comment by Gabby

No wait… It’s not back up, I’m sorry.

Comment by Gabby

Comment by max

reallly? cause i’ve got nothing!

Comment by jax

It was back up! I got through and its real, its another lyric video. They ask for us to share to unlock the contents but once I agreed to it, the page froze.

Comment by Bishop

It’s not working again…

Comment by Aanchel

I am not leaving this computer until I hear it.

Comment by max

leave it to us avenged sevenfold fans to flip out and overload a page haha

Comment by Andre

I try to stop and do something else. But I FUCKIN’ CAN’T!
I NEED TO HEAR THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT.
Fuck, it’s making me sick.

Comment by Ann

I got it to load once, it said “To continue the NIGHTMARE, click the Share button we will unlock the content – thanks for being a fan” or something like that. There was a little video but you couldn’t click it, and when I clicked the Share button, it tried to load something but died on a blank page.

Comment by a7x81

Did the exact same thing to me.

Comment by Victoria

Same here

Comment by Natasha

It’s so typical that A7X fans can do this. Well, you’ve got to love us really. What other band has fans that are this awesome and dedicated enough to crash a FB page twice?

Comment by Aanchel

Apparently it was back up and then it broke again…? I wanna hear it so bad, this is driving me nuts!

Comment by Kristina

i hear ya!

Comment by jax

It´s like a metallica esque balad !!
just fucking amazing!!
i don´t have words to describe this!
i hope all of you can hear it!!!
A7X!!!! foREVer

Comment by Andrew7x

It somehow worked for me. It is very Metallica-like in it’s sound, even more so than “Nightmare.” Great song, though.

Comment by Steven Whitaker

Yeah thats what i thought. Like the whole beginning is like ‘The Unforgiven’ and later on there is some death magnetic stuff in it. Like ‘That Was Just Your Life’. Fucking love this song!!! can’t wait for the album.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

really metallica esque

Comment by cheekster911

Oh my God, the song… ♥
I can’t believe it finally worked for me! I’m in shock, it’s so awesome

Comment by Alexandra

i got all the way through and heard it, im very much satisfied :) thats the happiest i can make the smiley, but i am happier than that

Comment by deen

use the letter D ;) :D

Comment by Marlz

This song is simply amazing.

Comment by John

just amazing..i’m speechless. beautiful song!

Comment by dvengenz

Wow. The lyrics in the last 2 minutes are dark…

Comment by Ricky Bobby

Finally heard the song!

For those who are still waiting. Most of the song is kind of soft; it kind of reminds me of Clairvoyant Disease with a great dueling riff with the verses. It’s got a rocking chorus. The song really revolves around Shadows’ vocals on this one. It’s got a killer solo which is followed by a more hardcore part; kind of reminds me of Nightmare’s post-solo part (“Fight! Not to fail!…”). The song overall aint like anything we’ve heard before.

Comment by [NE]Fobby[GEN]

thank you.

Comment by Danniel

I fucking love the song, and Clairvoyant Disease is my favourite song ever, so maybe that’s why (: It reminds me of that too.

Comment by EmilyVengeance

You know I was wondering what it reminded me of. Thank you for saying this. Clairvoyant disease is my favourite song off WTF.

Comment by Marlz

working fine in uk, listened twice now, amazing song, beautiful intro, much prefer it to nightmare which i wasn’t overly impressed with.

Comment by ell

its getting there:)

Comment by BC

this is depressing. why wont it still work

Comment by jamie

its up now, and its amazing.
catchy and pretty heavy.awesome.

Comment by Julian nunez

well i got to the page….i shared and clicked play..its just a black box..great the 27th is just too far away haha..oh and anybody else have the same problem i have?

Comment by Bob

Comment by leo

OMG THIS SONG IS INCREDIBLE.,AMAZING,EPIC ALL OF IT
GOOSEBUMPS AND CHILLS OMG!

Comment by jax

well avenged have made a massive change in sound and……………..ITS EPIC!!!!!!

Comment by Lewis

Good song, wait a while. The black box will load the video, took me about 5 mins. :)

Comment by Jake

Oh my god this song is different from any other song they have done. Freaking rules!!! So catchy and heavy at the same time

Comment by Anonymous

If someone could figure out how to put this on youtube, that would be AWESOME.

Comment by Ricky Bobby

This is Why I hate Facebook. It Loads,Then A Black Screen Pops Up. GREAT

Comment by Derek

when u click view and the black screen comes up, u just gotta wait a bit, then the song will come on, then the video will follow shortly

Comment by Toki

Comment by Calalo

Same lol

Comment by Anonymous

Look it up on youtube

Comment by Marlz

HOLY CRAP! IT WORKED FINALLY! very very very different from their usual self. last riff is very Pantera-esque and the song has a Metallica taste to it.

Comment by PeteA7X

Dude the song gets intensely heavy at the end. The guitar work at the beginning and the solo is the best I’ve heard from gates. The end even has screaming!!!!!

Comment by Anonymous

Its definately a great song! I wasnt expecting what I got and it is simply amazing! Loving the intro, the middle and end!

Comment by Bishop

Well it’s official. Nightmare and Buried Alive are now the 2 best A7X songs. And I’m not saying the others are bad, there isn’t an A7X song I don’t like. I’m saying that these are the best of the best.

Comment by Ricky Bobby

I’m not the biggest Nightmare fan. I was very impressed with Buried Alive and like it much more than Nightmare. I’d say Nightmare is in the top 15 A7X songs for me and this song is atleast top 5.

Comment by Jon

they just posted saying that so many fans clicked it, it was taken down so they would repost it again

Comment by jamie

YEAHHHHHH JAJAJAJA I DID IT IT’S AMAZING… OMG OMG OMG… its amazing…

Comment by a7xjandro

unreal song

Comment by eh7x

FUCK! A7X never dissapoints. I LOVE this song!

Comment by drewk777

Best 6 minutes and 44 seconds of my life.

Avenged Sevenfold never fails to blow my mind away.

Comment by Bri

im in love with this song…..i asked it to marry me but then i found out its cheating on me with actually thousands of others

Comment by deen

LOL

Comment by Gabby

its amazing, made my night!

Comment by DmDiablo

made my day

Comment by deen

Made my life

Comment by EmilyVengeance

I think the album will make my life and my afterlife

Comment by Deen

They’re right it’s so much heavier, it reminds me of Waking the Fallen.
It’s amazing I love it!
foREVer

Comment by Jessica

2nd time listening to it makes it just that much better. Can’t wait til the 27th.

Comment by Anonymous

better than nightmare.
better than any ballad they’ve ever done.
this is… <3

ILOVEYOUDBN.
sorry for doubting you. do you forgive me? :/

Comment by synystersam

Haha well I wouldn’t really call it a ballad, and anyway, it’s not as good as IWSYT lol. Still great, but not in the same league

Comment by Drew

The technical definition of a ballad, I believe is a song that tells a story. So, in that degree this song is a ballad.

Ballad: a narrative song with a recurrent refrain

Comment by Marlz

Haha ya, but you knew what I meant ;)
I mean if you go by the technical definition of a ballad, then pretty much every a7x song is a ballad (and that only reinforces my point above lol cuz this is far from their best song. good, but not the best).

Comment by Drew

Yeah I know exactly what you meant ;). And their best song in my opinion is Scream. Lol. But it generally changes for me depending on my mood. This is a mellow tune compared to a lot of other songs.

Comment by Marlz

lol ya…my favorites are Unholy Confessions and Eternal Rest, but IWSYT pt. 1 is up there too. I’m a huge fan of WtF, since it was the album that got me into them back in 2003

Comment by Drew

Mice endure the wheel lyric made me laugh a little. Not something you hear all the time.

Comment by Anonymous

It’s a very apt analogy to use. Of course it would be more hamster in a wheel…but…yeh hamsters are too cute for Avenged…lol

Comment by Marlz

You have to click like before it will and publish it to your wall before it will play it

Comment by James Laxson

It’s amazing. Can’t say anything else right now, I’m too excited. July 27th needs to be here tomorrow.

Comment by E

Is there any way we can pick up this song as an mp3?

Comment by [NE]Fobby[GEN]

amazing song…fucking epic solo

Comment by foREVer

It’s on youtube now!

Search: Buried Alive Avenged Sevenfold

Comment by Markus

The song blew me away.
M. Shadows’ voices sounds absolutely beautiful.
I loved it. I really loved it.
I’m not just saying that because it’s a new A7X song, I really loved it.
The “Hey!” sounds amazing.

Comment by Alex

has anyone noticed that the line of words from when they told us the release date is lyrics from this amazing song?

Comment by jerseysevenfold

OH-MY-GOD.

I kind of just had a massive heart-attack.

This is… The awesomeness of this song is beyong my comprehension. O_O

The ending is absolutely AMAZING O_O.

I guess this is all I am able to write or say right now because I’m totally on a different level of thinking right now O_O

Comment by Aneta

Well this was one crazy fan one from me… but I mean ever word of it

Comment by Aneta

anyone else think of the unforgiven while listening to it? complet badassness!

Comment by Julian G

i thought of unforgiven,dear god,nightmare, and clairvoyant disease

Comment by walnuts

I LOVE it!!!!! Hearing the song made my day!!! :D

Comment by Alyssa

kick ass song but i just wish they dident make it sound like they tottaly ripped of metallica

Comment by joe7x

Lol. Metallica is the greatest band on the face of this planet although Avenged is a close second. The verse drums really do sound very Death Magneticy. And so does the guitar that starts at 51 seconds. This is a phenomenal song. But it just makes me want more.

Comment by Aaron

MADE MY DAY.

Comment by Ann

OH MY JOHNNY FRIGGIN’ CHRIST! THIS SONG IS AMAZINGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT MADE ME CY IN THE FIRST FEW SECONDS!! xD <3

Comment by Miranda

That was awesome. Has a very Metallica type of sound and you can just feel the emotions in the lyrics! Already I see this is a very dark, lyrical album that will be nothing but perfect. I can not wait to get my copy!!! M.Shadows sounds a little more heavier in his singing…and as for the guitars, still the sickest and… still heavy enough to keep the dueling alive!! A7X continues to please me as always!! May you Rest in Peace Jimmy. f o REV e r ^8^

Comment by Jarred

HEY!

TABARNAK! The new Metallica song is so awesome!! Err, A7X**

Comment by ricky

Exactly what I thought! Flash before my eyes… Haha

Comment by Moshiz

I love this song! :) I’ve listened to it like five times now.

Nope!

Comment by Alyssa

Love the song, but i think its a lil bit metallica style ;x
but im sure that Rev is somewhere in his little piece of heaven watching the good job the guys have done with these songs :D

Comment by Christian

Fucking awesome A7X, I love it, Jimmy would fucking love this.

foREVer <3

Comment by EmilyVengeance

Anyways first thoughts were wow this sounds very Metallica-like which isnt a bad thing. Loved the solo…..idk if its Portnoy or if A7X planned it this way, but the drums are very weak compared to most any other song. Great song, focuses mainly on Shadows’s vocals…..very catchy chorus and the second verse is pretty much my favorite part of this song lol. Great effort here.

Comment by Terrance Phifer

The video for one is obviously not as good quality as the cd will be so give the drums a chance…also if people haven’t forgotten Jimmy laid down the demo drum tracks originally so Portnoy was playing mainly what Jimmy wrote.

Comment by Marlz

Yeah but alot of songs were re-did after Jimmys death. Im not sure if this was one of the concept songs or a new one.

Comment by Terrance Phifer

Only lyrics were redone/written. Not the music themselves. All the songs were finished before Jimmy died.

Comment by Marlz

Fucking epic song. Love the intro, love the lyrics, love the guitar, love everything about it

Comment by dito

Seems kind of simplistic after first listen…kind of boring. What happened to the twin guitar attacK?

Neither Nightmare nor Buried Alive seems really alive. Hopefully Portnoy hasn’t influenced their sound at all. Dream Theater haven’t put out something great since Scenes from a Memory.

Comment by taster

Portnoy did the drums, I don’t think he influenced them in any other way. And I think the song isn’t meant to be ‘lively’ Give it a chance we’ve only heard two songs.

Also, so what? I like simplistic ;).

Comment by Marlz

Disagree especially about “Nightmare”, that song is a straight up wake up call. This song is just one of their new darker songs I dont think your gonna be getting the party anthems of “City of Evil” lol

Comment by Terrance Phifer

There was a lot of dueling guitars in it first off. Second of it doesn’t seem to simplistic unless you are referring to the drums which are in many places simplistic. But I loved the drums in that song especially after the second chorus during the bridge to the solo where the guitars just ring out. I love the double kick. And the guitar is very un-simplistic to me.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

The headbanging skeletons near the end made me laugh so much. xD

Comment by Aneta

hey dbn…. just wondering, is there any chance of an mp3 for the track? i want it on my ipod NOWWWW!!!!!!!1 hahahaha

Comment by jyy

If you can somehow find a way to make it into an MP3.

Comment by deathbatnews

there is a way to do it if you have firefox

Comment by Morgan

Then he can do it that way :)

Comment by deathbatnews

yup sad thing is I learned how to change youtube videos to mp3′s from youtube cuz i was bored one day

Comment by Morgan

You can download some program that turns youtube videos into mp3s, just google it.

But it would be shitty quality. Don’t listen to it too much, or it will be old by the 27th.

Comment by EmilyVengeance

It won’t be old because if it’s not good quality the CD version will be way better;). I know from experience, for another band I’ve played youtube quality songs on my ipod over and over…and then played the real deal and it was so much better that it sounded new again

Comment by Marlz

find the video on youtube dude. copy the url and then go to listentoyoutube.com it’s very easy.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

[...] Buried Alive… Avenged Sevenfold have posted the brand new song “Buried Alive” on their Facebook page along with a lyric [...] [...]

Comment by Leslie

Hey DBN!
I found this on YouTube: *link removed*
It’s about Nightmare having ”subliminal messages” related to The Rev.
(I just want to know your opinion, It doesn’t mean that I think they did it intentionally or anything..)

Comment by Danniel

People look too much into it and try and make things it isnt. I think the video is pretty silly.

Comment by deathbatnews

I think the video’s cool, it’s chilling at some points which goes with the song. Why do you think it’s silly?

I’m just curious.

Comment by EmilyVengeance

Honestly? Because I think that some people are trying to relate absolutely everything to The Rev, and while this album is in his honor and largely influenced by him the song “Nightmare” was done before he passed, lyrics written, everything and the band has said that before. I think this is someone just trying to desperately grasp at things he could find in the song and twist them into something different.

Comment by deathbatnews

DBN sorry 2 correct you but they said after the REV died they changed lyrics.

Comment by Jonathan

You’re not correcting me because Im not wrong. Nightmare, THE SONG, was written before Jimmy died and that has been stated in nearly every single interview. The lyrics to Nightmare have NOTHING to do with Jimmy’s death, that’s come out of the bands mouths. Just watch the Walmart interview posted today. This song was originally one that was to be used on the concept album. Half of the album is songs they were planning to use for the concept album while the other half are lyrics they wrote based on what happened. Therefore, yes, people trying to pull subliminal messages out of “Nightmare,” the song, are pulling them out of thin air.

Comment by deathbatnews

sorry i watched the interview after i posted the comment, i didnt mean nightmare was talkin about jimmy i knew it wasnt i thought this one was tho im sorry, that was my bad i still love u DBN, do ya love me??? lol

Comment by Jonathan

Of course.

Comment by deathbatnews

woohooo us fans will always come to your page for news, cause u give it best!!! i check ur sight at least 8 times a day!!! we are the A7X family we got each others backs!!!

Comment by Jonathan

Agree with DBN completely. They said that is one song they did not change because Jimmy loved everything about it and they weren’t gonna change something he loved. There are no messages towards The Rev. The song is just a kick ass starter like “Critical Acclaim” and “Unholy Confessions” with it’s dark lyrics. Love it!

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Thank you :)

Comment by Danniel

i get the feeling some people arent being honest on here i get the impression some people are just saying they love the song because its a7x

Comment by joe7x

Yeah, while the song isnt bad, its definitely my least favorite of avengeds ballads..thats just my opinion though, though they set the bar pretty high for themselves.

But my god, the producer…is he 12? the audio quality is ridiculous compared to…well any modern metal cd

Comment by Anonymous

You’re going to judge Mike on a video posted on Facebook thats clearly been distorted quality wise? It’s obviously not CD quality.

Comment by deathbatnews

You tell em DBN

Comment by Anonymous

Obviously it wont be as good as it would be on CD, but still, with the advancements in studio recording, especially in metal, there are bands who’ve recorded their first CD through 400$ pieces of equipment, totally self produced, mixed, and mastered, and it sounds better than that.

Frequencies are alot different in metal production than in pop.

Comment by Anonymous

Im aware of all of that, but you’re basing the production of this song off of a video that has been uploaded to Facebook where the sound and production quality has obviously been distorted because of that fact.

Comment by deathbatnews

also, they probly reduced the quality during the repost to facebook after it was overloaded

Comment by Ryan

Not really a ballad. And if you have heard Pantera’s cd’s and then you listen to A7X’s cd’s then you can definitely tell that the production quality is much better. Which is why I listen to A7X’s version of “Walk” because it’s better quality. But the original is always the original.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Really? I think those people are outweighed by the people who actually like the song.

I for one, really like the song. And if it weren’t A7X I’d still like it.

Comment by Marlz

If you like Metallica/Avenged Sevenfold then you’ll enjoy the song. Nightmare was catchier but I do love this song lyrically.

Comment by Terrance Phifer

sorry to be a grammar teacher but they misspelled your in the video. Where it goes “get your fuckin’ hands off me!” they wrote you’re….just thought I’d point that out

Comment by cheekster911

they screwed up in Nightmare’s lyric video too, “just to rape you of your site” lmao

Comment by David Castleman

I think they mean it to be like that, just to rape you of your sight is a little weird because sight has nothing to do with being raped/owned however they mean it. But to rape you of your site might mean your area/stance/position then having the nerve to tell you how to feel.

it is awesome , i keep jizzing my pants really :)|
I feel like im high or smth…
And it sounds like metallica , now thats awesome.

Comment by Drunoctis

It’s fuckin’ amazing. ♥

Also, I saw a few links of some of the songs from Nightmare on youtube & a download link for the entire album.

Comment by John

Hey DBN – what do YOU think of the song? We’ve all heard each other’s opinions but not the bossman’s…or should I say bosswoman’s ;)

Comment by a7xfreakdrummer

The beginning reminds me of “Hotel California” meets melodic 80′s metal. I love how the song transitions into something totally different as it goes on. The second half is the best part for me. I like how the guitar solo gets down and dirty. Love Shadows bringing the screaming back even if it is just a little here. I enjoy the breakdowns in it especially the small one at the end. I think this song will be a huge live song if they choose to play it. Definite sing-a-long for the crowd.

Comment by deathbatnews

thats awesome-same with me, I really enjoy the second part of the song where shadows screams! thanks for the reply and the way you described you could definitely be a pro reviewer for albums and stuff :D

Comment by a7xfreakdrummer

Thank you DBN for your review…..I would personally like to request maybe when the full album is released you do a fair and honest review of the tracks. Like I said good call on this one.

Comment by Terrance Phifer

Thanks Terrance, we’ll see :)

Comment by deathbatnews

ddddddddddoooooooooooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!

Shove it in RockSounds’s face too.

Comment by Phil A7X

Aww yay DBN please do it! I’d love to see your opinion, I visit this site like a dozen times a day!

I bet A7X would read it too :)

Comment by EmilyVengeance

actually, the screaming sound JUST like the rev.

after having listened to all 6 of the pinkly smooth songs over 400-500 times each on my ipod (yes i know obsession) the screaming in the background on some of the parts is the rev.

at least as far as i can tell on my crappy laptop speakers..

Interested to know what you think DBN. understand if youre asleep/too busy to rply tho haha =) 300+ comments is crazy!

Comment by Ryan

No one can say it IS the Rev because we don’t know that for sure. As far as I know, the only song his vocals in any way are featured on is “Fiction.” We shall see though!

Comment by deathbatnews

I’m pretty sure The Rev also sings in Nightmare. during the last chorus on “No one to call, everybody to fear”

Comment by Phil A7X

Nope. If you listen closely, you can hear that the background vocals are Shads; he’s just singing higher than normal.

Comment by Drew

Second half was definitely my favorite, too. Like your review. And yes do a review of the whole album! It would be awesome! And we all know A7X is watching us…

HAHA loved it… especially with the head banging skeletons, that was awesome… and when it first opened with the fire and the burning cave I immediately flashed back to ‘Almost Easy’

Comment by Morgan

OMG best song ive heard from them yet just blew me away another great guitar solo awesome vocals shadows emotion is awesome on this song almost in tears after listning to this song so epic

Comment by vince

A few things come to mind after several listens…

1. I was a teenager in the 80s, Metallica was obviously one of my favorite bands, and then the Black album ruined Metallica for me. I would love to never hear again that this “will be their Black album.” That would be awful to me. That being said, I don’t mind the Metallica influences in this song, as they fit.

2. Anyone else notice that at the 5 minute mark it has some very Nightmare-ish sounding guitar/drums?!?

Other than that, it’s Avenged and I love what they do! I’m really excited to hear the rest and glad that they are doing some official “leaking” for us!!!

fat

Comment by fatboy

yeah, but they have a lot of breaks similar to that. like dancing dead and a couple others

Comment by Ryan

The more I thought about it, what they are doing is very very Dream Theater. Having been a fan of DT since 1989 I’ve noticed a lot of patterns: a big one is that they have musical “themes” throughout an album or even over multiple albums. If that is the case, then that’s bad ass!!!

Comment by fatboy

this is an amazing song i cant stop listening to it – even the lyric video is good. cant wait for the full album

Comment by James

This song has grown on me majorly. For some reason the start makes me wanna cry. I reaaally can’t explain it :p

Comment by rexy

i know what you mean it gets stronger and more emotional with every listen

Comment by Anonymous

i know exactly how you feel. my heart sank just listening to this. it’s really starting to hit home again, with Jimmy not being here.

Comment by Bre

I actually like this song better than Nightmare…if that’s possible…but then again maybe it’s the mood I’m in. Still epic though

Comment by Marlz

This is so BADASS! I fuckin’ love it! I can kinda relate to it with my home life. But it’s just os fuckin’ awesome! July 27th needs to hurry the fuck up & get here!

You really enjoy the use of the word fuck, don’t you? Lol.

Comment by craig

This song is defintly better than nightmare I loved nightmare but the emotion on this is alot more real and the first day nightmare came out i listned to it probally 5 times and ive already listned to buried alive 22 times already just gets better with every listen and more meaningful

Holy shit… what an awesome song!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by Brian

Personally I love this song. I loved nightmare to but I think Buried Alive is a bit better in my opinion. I can feel the emotion more in this song.

Comment by james

yeah, well nightmare wasn’t written lyrically for the crisis they’ve been through.

Comment by Anonymous

I think overall its better than Nightmare, Guitar work is great, and it does have more emotion to it, which will probably be a better song anyway.

Comment by Anonymous

Agreed, Buried Alive is making its way to being my favourite a7x song, I love their WTF and STST stuff the best so Buried Alive was a FUCK YEAAHHH!

Comment by EmilyVengeance

I love this song!

Comment by Josh

I love that they are making heavy music! so much better than the self titled!

Comment by Josh

Not better, just different IMO.

Comment by Marlz

It’s so much better to me. Like Syn said they went back to their roots for this album.

Comment by Josh

Its better than the self titled…

Comment by lollololol

Call me biased, then. I became a fan off the S/T album.

Also, I’ll rephrase my statement, they are getting better. But it’s not ‘so much better’ than the self-titled album. Give them credit where it’s due, and don’t bias it on past albums.

Comment by Marlz

I’ve been a fan since Waking so i’ve been waiting a long time for them to make heavy music again.

Comment by Josh

I’m not sayng I don’t like the stuff off WTF three of my top five are on that album, but still give credit where credit is due. The songs are marginally better than the ST but not just because they’re heavier. They’re growing each time they write new material. As you would hope they would do.

It really should not be based on how heavy or how much screaming Shads does. That’s all very good, but if you’re going to say it’s better talk about the techniques used as oposed just saying it’s ‘heavier’ or whatever.

Comment by Marlz

ahhhhhh i fukken love it
i am so fukken happy man synyster leggit ass work on the solos :’)
tooo fukken sikk

Comment by mR_sYNYSTER

You know what I just realised. This song has a kind of Tension/Until The End kind of vibe.

Comment by Marlz

Yeah the melody of Matt’s voice in the first half of the song sounds kind of like the verses for Until the End.

Comment by [NE]Fobby[GEN]

So it’s not only me lol. Good to know :). Honestly some of the songs on Diamond in the rough would’ve been better off on the ST album…imo.

Comment by Marlz

I can’t describe what I felt when I heard the first “HEY!”… It’s simply unbelievable.

The most impressive song I’ve ever heard, really.

A7X, the best, foREVer!!!!!!

Comment by Seba

I know right? That like jumped me. It fucking kicked ass!!

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Just kinda curious but does anyone remember what that shitty magazine said about Buried Alive. I know that lady hated on a lot of the songs. The break down towards the end makes me wanna smash shit I hope they play this live.

Comment by Anthony

Yeah, you’re totally right, I was thinking the same… How could she not to like this song?! The final breakdown it’s just killer.

This is a fucking masterpiece in Avenged’s and music history!

DIE… BURIED… ALIVE!!! Fucking awesome…

Comment by Seba

she said it was a metallica ripoff “ballad”

this is in no way a ballad. it reminds me of And All Things Will End.

Comment by synystersam

Yeah same. If anything, ‘Fiction’ will be the ballad. I’m pretty sure of it cus of those last lyrics in the song. It sounds like something from ‘I won’t see you tonight’.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Im pretty sure that’s why the released this song early, to prove that biatch wrong.

Comment by Damagon

anyone else get a metallica vibe from this song? the beginning sounds like ‘the unforgiven’

Comment by Aaron7x

totally just missed the above comments about sounding like metallica sorry guys!

Comment by Aaron7x

understandable lol considering the number of comments hahaha

Comment by Ryan

YES!! Thought the same thing. What’s really funny too is that i’ve been listening to Metallica the past couple of days. And the unforgiven is like my most favorite song and i’ve been listening to that song so much. Then this comes out? It was like a fucking calling for this song!!

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

I actually heard a metallica sounding riff mid song. I believe call of ktulu. It comes in at 4:56

Comment by Cory

Cried my eyes out during the intro. Cant wait for the album, longest 13 days EVER!!!!

Comment by Ghostflame83

im pretty sure nightmare comes out on the 23 somewhere, i think germany? maybe.. but yeah it will be all over the internet in 8 more days.

Comment by Anonymous

yea i bet on the 23rd it will be everywhere

Comment by Lewis

The sound quality is kinds eh

Comment by Chris

I thought it was alright. Maybe headphones or the speaker your using? I’m always in the studio with my dad helping him mix and everything. I kinda got the ear for it. It sounded great to me. But your gonna get the best quality when it comes out on the cd.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Favorite part hands down is when they show the back of the 5 skeletons when the first couple lyrics kicks in. Definatly makes me miss jimmy more.

Comment by Matt

the first time i listened to this song it felt kind of iffy, like it was something I was not expecting. Nothing like this was released over the past two albums, but after the second listen i was sold, this shit is fucking sick. <3 a7x

Comment by Anonymous

Exactly how i felt man

Comment by Neil

at the beginning i was like omg already love it. iffy though about 15 secs in cause i wasnt sure where it was going. but shads vox on whats been released of the album so far and fucking INCREDIBLE.

sold me 100% when the vox came in.

Comment by Ryan

I was the same with Nightmare, the first time I listened to Nightmare I was like wtf is this? Now it’s one of the top songs on my itunes/ipod playlist.

I got into this song much quicker though.

Comment by Marlz

nightmare i was like ok mission impossible intro lol…

but then everything else came in and i was like hell yes not mission impossible lol

Comment by Ryan

Yeah, I know…like what are they going to do on stage for that intro? lol. But then the rest of the song kicks ass. And now the intro rocks for me…weird, eh?

Comment by Marlz

Same. First listen I wasnt sure. 10 listens later and it’s Amazing

Comment by ZZZ

I have to fuckin learn every note in this song and play it every day, i love it, i kinda got sick of metallica after a while but the influence sounds fuckin amazing, A7X is The Best Band Ever!!! \m/_ (-_-) _\m/

Comment by Will

Amen.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

This song is really unexpected in the type of sound it has. The first time I heard it I thought it was a music add lmfao D: But I Loveeeeeeeeeee it.

Comment by Derek

i get this weird “pirates of the Carribian in hell” feel from the vid… lol

Comment by Ryan

First half is like Unforgiven in structure and drums, Chorus is one of sevenfolds best and the second half of the song is pure fucking evil, to me its some of my favourtie work by syn and zacky, incredible jazzy intro with one of the most evil solos ive ever heard

Comment by mara

DUDE! I thought the same thing. Hahaha

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

even with the crappy sound quality, you can hear all the sadness.. mainly in shadows vocals. but i get it too from the guitar parts.

this album is gonna be so raw and amazing and perfect lol

Comment by Ryan

This shit is so fucking heavy. I love it!

Comment by Vayne92

It’s so melodic, I almost feel like crying

Comment by Phil A7X

Our boys are back!!! this just goes to show how lucky we are to be avenged sevenfold fans!!!

Comment by Swen Duerigen

This song is just a masterpiece. If all the songs on the new album sounds like this.. it will be awesome!

Comment by ChrisA7X

Just sick, I can’t wait!

Comment by richi

I’m really scared I won’t like this album..

Comment by Kirsty

Why? The song is amazing. And I’m not saying it just because it’s Avenged. What’s not to like?

Comment by Marlz

Yeah why wouldn’t you like it? the song is great and I like they are making a different sound to there music. It’s cool for people who appreciate all types of music to hear a little bit of everything.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Did you listen to it repeatedly? That seemed to be the trick for me. On my first listen i was skeptical. By the 3rd i started appreciating the instruments and vocals/lyrics. This is about my 6 or 7 listen, i’m going crazy over it! it’s unbelievable!

Comment by Phil A7X

yeah i listened to it repeadedly and i like it a little better now :)

Comment by Kirsty

No offense to anyone, but JUST when I thought it couldn’t get anymore Metallica.. The intro and the main dual melody thingy is so Metallica, that I’m afraid to hear another song. I finally got over the obvious Metallica sound in Nightmare, and now it got to a whole new level. And I’m one of the few people who think Metallica is just way overrated, BUT, the rest of the song really kick’s ass and the solo just raped my butt straight away

Comment by JIK

Im glad I’ve never heard any Mettalica songs :D I really like the new songs, what is wrong with you? Dunno.. =D

Comment by ChrisA7X

I didn’t say I didn’t like the songs. I love both of them and A7X will never do anything that would stop me from listening to their music. I just said that I don’t like the obvious Metallica sound that has appeared in the new songs. What’s wrong with me? Give ‘Unforgiven’ a listen and say that ‘Buried Alive’ doesn’t have a clear Metallica sound to it. (And as I said, most people like metallica, so most people might also like the metallica sound in the new songs. This is only my opinion)

Comment by JIK

You’ve never heard any Metallica songs!?

Comment by Gerry

Yeah I heard two songs I think. Enter sandman and Nothing else matters. I always preferred A7x MUSIC :)

And I’ve never said anything bad about Metallica so don’t kill me with your comments here :)

Comment by ChrisA7X

Yeah its sounds like Metallica except its good and Matt actually knows how to sing.

Comment by Sam

It’s not like Metallica is bad. I know they are all good musicians and can play really well their instruments. They definitely have made a couple of songs that deserve the popularity. But it’s just that most of their stuff I really, really don’t like and it seems just weird to me that they are probably the world’s most popular band.

Comment by JIK

Yeah I like the metallica sound to it. And James Hetfield isn’t really the singing type. I like how his voice is distorted. Matt is the same way. But Matt actually sings.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

to be honest i dont care if it sounds very metallica or any other band like its one of there biggest influence’s so im not surprised but i think “Buried Alive” is one of the best songs they have came out with

Comment by Lewis

Are you saying Hetfield can’t sing?

Comment by Tabatha

He can sing.. its just not that good. Shadows can sing MUCH better and has so much passion and emotion in his voice. Listen to the 3:08 mark in Unbound (the wild ride) for the best example of this.

Comment by Sam

Are you serious… watch this and tell me he can’t sing.

Comment by Matt

Haha. Yeah Hetfield can sing. been listening to that and the unforgiven a lot lately. But Hetfield just doesn’t do it as much as Shadows.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Hetfield > Shadows

Comment by Chase

all this who sings better is all opinions!

Comment by Jeremy

That’s subjective. And at any rate, Hetfield’s been going a lot longer than Shadow’s so he’s just more experienced

Comment by Marlz

90′s Metallica is vastly overrated. But in the 80′s there was no band better than Metallica. Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning are the greatest metal albums ever.

Comment by Chase

Amazing song!
Matt screm´s a bit

Comment by RuiA7X

Some of the comments on here are so funny!

Its like the solo sucks, the song is totally ripped from metallica and the lyrics are shite, but apart from that it’s a good song..no offence..

WTF :L

Comment by Kirsty

Except, not at all. No “offence”.

Comment by Zack

I LOVED the solo and i liked how they put 2 solos in. I LOVED that it sounded like Metallica. I loved all the music in it. And I LOVED the lyrics. They are fucking awesome. And I LOVE the song. Hahahaha

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

I think you miss-understood what I was saying..I mean thats what people are saying..and it’s stupid..

Comment by Kirsty

Haha. I know you were. I was saying that back at the other people. Not you. (:

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

I actually love the song :)

Comment by Kirsty

I figured you did. Haha. (: People are crazy sometimes.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Then…how are you calling it a good song when you basically said that it sucks?
:p

Comment by Alyssa

Jesus, I was pointing out that other people were saying that and it made no sense..you can’t say a song completely sucks, then say no offence..

Comment by Kirsty

I guess I should have used these ‘…’ :L

Comment by Kirsty

oops, I didn’t get what you were saying at first. Sorry about that..

Comment by Alyssa

GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OF MEEE!!!!

Comment by Phil A7X

Didn’t Shadows say this song was for the troops?

Nope. You are thinking ‘Danger Line’ (:

Comment by Zach

but it is danger line

Comment by miin

yeh it’s danger line, didn’t you know ;). Lol.

Comment by Marlz

Wow, wow, wow. Definately A7X. Awesome. If they play that on the radio, A7X will get so big. Love it guys.

Comment by Tracey7777

I dunno , this song doesn’t sound very radio friendly, specially if we add the fact that it’s almost 7 mins long and has a long intro and solo.

This is the type of song they’d play on the radio only if they become super huge.

Comment by dam

I agree but in my option its songs like this that we NEED on the radio.

Comment by Ghostflame83

That was exactly my point. So often, the long great A7X ballads don’t make the radio. In my opinion, those are some of A7X’s best songs. Seize the Day was a ballad, but you don’t hear their others on the radio (I Won’t See You Tonight, Gunslinger, Clairvoyant Disease, etc.) It could really be a hit.

Comment by Tracey7777

They will seriously dominate the airwaves if they decide to release that as a radio single.

Comment by Gabby

Me again. I’ve been playing this song for my family and friends tonight to help prove my point. I’ve been a huge fan since the beginning. Loved all the song, but the ballads were my truest favorites. I played it for my husband who’s a radio listener. He says it’s going to be HUGE if you play it on the radio. I’m sure A7X has already made decisions about the future of this song, but I’m telling you, it will pull them into the band. Granted, my husband listened to A7X because of me, but he thought this would be crucial to your success. Love you guys and behind you 100 percent.

Comment by Tracey7777

Don’t get me wrong guys, I like the song and love Avenged, but it’s just kind of there for me. There’s no flair to it that’s making me think, nothing crazy, but maybe I just have to listen to it more in order to like it.

Comment by Scratch

i love the intro….
and the solo, and the end, fuck yeahh!!!!

Comment by Angel

Oh my godddd
I just now listened to it on YouTube and I was actually a little disappointed with the beginnig it kinda sounded like metallica but then the song went on and the ending was very awesome.

Comment by courtney591

Ok I just listened to it again and it’s AMAZING I guess the first video had terrible sound quality and it wasn’t very loud. With avenged sevenfold stuff you kinda need to hear it loud to hear everything

Comment by courtney591

It sure is easy to tell who the newish S/T album fans are

Comment by Josh

FAVORITE FUCKING COMMENT EVER.

i feel the same way, bro.

Comment by synystersam

i did start liking them with their s/t, but thats just cause it was the album out when i discovered them, i easily crossed over and i have every song theyve ever done and buried alive is a goddamn awesome song

Comment by deen

what does S/T stand for?

Comment by Kirsty I

oh shit..self titled..now i sound real stupid

Comment by Kirsty I

don’t worry it’s stupid anyway how fucking hard is it for people to spell out SELF TITLED, omg that was so hard. seriously guys.

Comment by David Castleman

It’s not hard, we’re just lazy…

Comment by Marlz

yeah same here. I liked A7X since ’07 but damn if i discovered them during waking the fallen days I’d have been hooked on metal for much longer. ’07 is when I started liking rock/metal. Thank you A7X (: yes I was listening to rap before. Haha.

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Yep, because the S/T fans aren’t used to screaming Matt ;)

Comment by Gabby

Why does it even matter when someone became a fan if A7X? I like the way they change their style because I believe that is what a true artist does. Otherwise you end up with a band like Disturbed that puts out the same shit. I like this song, I do not love it. I think there will be much better songs on the album than this. It is amazing to hear new material I can’t wait to hear it all.

Comment by Anthony

I completely agree with you. I don’t think it matters if you were a fan of a7x from the very beginning or if you’ve just discovered them, their amazing with every album they put out.

Comment by Courtney

Thankyou for saying that, I became a fan through the S/T album, however some of my favourite songs are off WTF.

I don’t see how ‘hardcore’ A7X fans can say something like OMG that person’s a ST n00b. Yeah, no.

Comment by Marlz

I know I was a fan since COE but I’ve gone back to every album they released and I love it all. Now I am a big fan of screamo<3

Comment by Courtney

totally agree, the self titled got me hooked, but waking the fallen is my favorite album of all time. although i have to disagree with the disturbed comment, they have definitely evolved a lot as a band

Comment by David Castleman

he means the people that don’t like this.

those are the newish s/t(self titled, hurr durr) fans. just because this isn’t fucking almost easy doesn’t mean that this isn’t a masterpiece. this is one of the best songs they’ve ever done.

Comment by synystersam

Oh well I love this. And I honestly don’t think it strictly hearkens back to their WTF days…I think it’s an entirely new sound from them. Which is good.

Comment by Marlz

like one square screaming: shit!!! in a room full of circles screaming fuck!!! hehehe

Comment by miin

hahaha ;) I got into them right before they hit it big with “Bat Country” and I was seven years old. The S/T was my first new release A7X record but before they even started on it my first a7x record that I got was COE, than STST, than WTF (which became my fav until now), and then I got the S/T. So I’m kinda old-school ;)

Comment by a7xfreakdrummer

The beginning of the song would have been soooo much better with flamenco guitar as opposed to just having it played clean with an electric.

Comment by A7XEric

love it cant ****in wait for the rest of the cd

Comment by Darkness6661

Pretty fucking awesome if you ask me. Wasnt sure the first time I listened but now I’m sold this song kick ASS. I’m pretty excited cause this wasn’t even a song I was looking forward too and its fuckin badass

Comment by ZZZ

Didn’t like it nearly as much as Nightmare. Hopefully there is better to come, and I’m sure there is.

Comment by Owen.C

LOVE the first half of the song and the chorus is awesome..but after the first solo the song goes straight downhill for me. I loved the first half and think it would have been a perfect song if it wasnt for the last 2 minutes. The last 2 minutes completely ruined it for me and i absolutely hate to say that because a7x is the greatest band of all time but thats how i feel about it…

Comment by JohnK

the last 2 minutes are awesome to me…

Comment by Morgan

I dont know..ive listened to the song a few more times and its growing on me a little but i just dont like how much it sounds like Metallica still. the last 2 minutes are good but in my opinion theyre not a7x good…still wayyyyy pumped for the album tho wooooo!

Comment by JohnK

Umm.. The first half is like all Metallica sound more than the last 2 minutes. It sounds like ‘The Unforgiven’. My opinion. Still love it. (: Also love Metallica

Comment by Chandler Fyfe

Whats wrong with the second half? I thought the last two minutes were the best.

Comment by Alyssa

I’m the total opposite, the last two minutes are the best for me, you may be a fan of their recent stuff, but the last two minutes remind me of their Waking The Fallen days, my favourite album everrrr!

Comment by EmilyVengeance

I think the last part it´s the best part

Comment by RuiA7X

Too all the naysayers out there who think a7x steals everything from metallica, shutup seriously. Just because buried alive has some elements of metallica’ songs doesnt mea anything. So annoying

Comment by j-russ

Idk if anyone noticed, but did anyone see the skeleton towards the end holding onto handcuffs? Like, is that a reference to The Rev?

Comment by EmilyVengeance

i dont tink so. it just goes along with what he is singing

Comment by miin

hi

hi :)

Comment by zach

It was pretty fucking amazing, and it makes me even more excited about the album!<3

Comment by Carriebelle.

Fuckin awesome! can not wait for the album!!! =D

Comment by Shell

Oh my GOD guys go on Youtube and type in the song and it says that warner brothers music group has made it no longer available): this suck balls!!!!!!!!

Comment by Courtney

If you haven’t noticed the band have put it up on their official youtube page ;).

Comment by Marlz

Ya I found that out after I posted this comment.

Comment by Courtney

ok so, i’m kinda obsessed with this band. nd this is how i feel about this song… um, i loved nightmare so much. most haunting intro ever! sooo perfect. as soon as i heard this intro… i got the biggest goosebumps! i think i actually kinda like it mor than nightmare. one of my top 5 songs by them is ‘the wicked end’ nd i believe theres a lot of that in this song.. nd will be in this album. this guitar solo is much better than nightmare’s as well. this song is just sooo them. pretty fkin beautiful track- i’m in love. foREVer. ugh- miss the Rev so much. RIP :(

Comment by GABRIELA GATES

First off. Love the song. It grows on me definitely. However, it does sound like Metallica. Listen to “The Day That Never Comes” from Death Magnetic. Tune and lyrics are completely different, but the format is exactly the same. Starts slow…Melodic verse. Loud, heavy chorus with distorted guitars. slows down again…repeat. Then the end of “Buried Alive” get really heavy, sounds like a different song, JUST LIKE THE METALLICA SONG! Exact same format. Check it out!

Comment by Mark

HEY DBN THOUGHT U SHOULD KNOW ALL THE YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF BURIED ALIVE HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY THE WARNER BROTHERS GROUP

Comment by Joshua Berman

The beginning is probably my favorite part of the song. I loved the sound of it. I listened to this song a crapload. Wasn’t sure if I liked it at first but I continued to listen to it over and over again and I’m in love with it lol.
Can’t wait for the album!

Comment by Anonymous

I love how the guys are so willing to try something new and express themselves in so many different ways and at the same time stick to their roots. They never cease to amaze me.

I wasn’t expecting this song, but that in no way means that I dislike it…it just needed a little time to win me over.

Comment by Angie

WMG got to all the “Buried Alive” that were posted on youtube.

Comment by Ghostflame83

M shadows Screams =) Yay…. PS I love this song!

Comment by Edward Greene

Buried alive hands down.. BEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER!!!!! The artwork is righteous!!!!!!

Comment by the J-RUSS

I could listen to those first 50 seconds forever.

Comment by Lily

I can already picture them playing this song live, and letting the crowd shout “HEY” on the chorus.

Comment by Phil A7X

totally like in critical acclaim its gonna be awesome if they do it do it doit do what? do it

Comment by miin

ahh just listend to this for the first time..had tears for a but this album is going to be FUCKING EPIC!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by iliana

Here’s my take.
First fifty seconds were incredible. I really get the vibe of how syn Is feeling. He’s so good at putting his feelings into his music in a positive way.
When things start heating up and we hear drums and the chorus for the first time, my heart really started pounding and this was actually the climax of the song for me
Then the solo. Absolutely shreading. Some of their best guitar work to date.
Then, to be honest, things started going downhill. Too much metallica influence is possible. Backing chant vocals were just a little cheesy and I just really didn’t like It.
Overall, it is a great song.

Comment by Ase7enX

I’m getting more of a Pantera vibe than a Metallica vibe, if anything.

Comment by Anonymous

the first time I heard the song, I thought it was okay… and then I listened to it again… and again… and again…

It’s been growing on me! Now I can’t stop replaying it. Awesome lyric video too!

Comment by angel

Cant wait to see them live,
Also, anyone going to the Irvine show?

Comment by Jeremy

I didn’t see a listing for Irvine…really?!?!?

Comment by fatboy

To those who don’t know it’s on the A7X official Youtube page :)

Comment by Marlz

so I don’t think it sounds anything like the unforgiven. i just played them both side by side. The only reason that I think everyones like omgz metallica is because it’s musically genius, and people associate that with metallica. For me metallica is the most instrumentally genius band ever, and im not even that big of a metallica fan (mostly because i’m picky about James’ vocals, sometimes i like them, sometimes eh. but instrumentally they are consistently amazing). Yes I can see metallica playing this song, I feel like it’s something they COULD have written. But fact of the matter is they didnt, A7X did and it’s got enough of that feel to it to where i hear itt and i dont go “omg metallica” i go “fuck yes a7x”
