I am glad people are enjoying this video. I was 12 years old filming these shows and hanging with A7X, they truly are awesome guys. I am working on cutting some more footage!
+Driab derp yeah I hear they have a new album coming out soon but the thing is,they aren't like this anymore they're more like alternative metal these days
@@Eclipse1988 oh I see 😂😂 I love this band so much lol. Doesn't Val have a twin sister and syns with her? I read something about that online somewhere but I was iffy about it
@@ExternusArmy I come back here since 2015 since I first heared the song, this live performance is gold, and Val participation just elevates it even more, does somebody knows what is she doing nowdays?
holy shit dude thank you for this piece of history!!! awesome seeing Zack go so hard back in the day, he's really the most punk out of the group. seeing them all this young is crazy
***** Holy shit you're thick. Can't make a comeback so you diss mine. Haha, pathetic typical bvb fan. Yes tar head, you seen andys hair? He looks like he fell head first into a tar pit. And your the one who came here so what am I trying to accomplish?
I hate to be rude, and potentially stalkerish, (decided to check out your profile because you seem like you aren't a douche) but I'm confused. Do you like BVB, or do you not?
Shatterskin Gaming How can you talk about Neil like that? That huge drumset hasn't always been there, he recorded most of their albums with a much smaller one, he's also a god
MrKubiman i bet back on the day joey could have. The rev yes was a bad ass drummer but this shit with joey is so funny slipknot was awsome till vol. 3 then shit hit the fan.
Shatterskin Gaming You sir are a big dumb ass Neil Peart was a master. Watch some old videos fly by night he used a small drum set. The rev got a big drum set in the end with what 3 or 4 bass drums? Just saying
Depending on the video footage and year. The first bassist is Matt Wendt and he played from 1999 to mid 2000. Then after him they picked up Justin Sane (He got a stage name with the guys) and he quit the band after about a year. He got very depressed and suicidal and then had to leave half way through Warped Tour. The song *I Won't See You Tonight* is dedicated to him. Then Johnny Christ started in 2003 to finish up the Warped Tour and then stayed until now! I did a project on them in school :P
It's nice to go back to when they still did older music live. Everything they do now is just the most popular songs from the albums. I'd like to hear some that only the true fans would know
It's weird as shit seeing these guys like this. Like they started out as a small band, making their way up. Even stranger like metalcore into whatever genre you could consider them now haha. It's weird seeing their start, now look at them. Making history as gods on a big stage. It's inspiring.
If I was my age now back in the late 90s I would have loved to have been there! Huntington Beach is one great city, and I find it awesome such a great band came from there!
omg thank you for posting this video. I truely do appreciate watching all their old performances. I'm looking forward to seeing more footage. Thanks again. :DD
I did NOT expect Synyster Gates to have a Parker Fly much before his Schecter, but THIS, this right here is history. Now Zacky Vengeance using a cheapo SG does make more sense...
Legion-_- LIG3R was Johnny Christ in the band at this point ? I know he didn’t play on the first album & that doesn’t look like him. Then again .. none of them look like that anymore.
I am glad people are enjoying this video. I was 12 years old filming these shows and hanging with A7X, they truly are awesome guys. I am working on cutting some more footage!
Dude these are such Gems. It’s very hard to find footage of these guys from back then. Thanks a lot
@Christopher Maki PLEASE finish those videos you were referring to!
Thanks for this 1 tho
foREVer
@@jaredsmith1859 fr he should at least post the other 2 shows that are in this video
C'mon man this waiting 19 fuckin years for footage is a bit much, do you think? 🤘 💙💙 🤘. 😂
@@shepshe66 better late than never 😅
i think these guys might be famous one day
They are.
Really?
+Driab derp Yes.
huh, never ever heard of them.........................
+Driab derp yeah I hear they have a new album coming out soon but the thing is,they aren't like this anymore they're more like alternative metal these days
4:40 the rev puts his glasses back up on his face while continuing to drum like a madman xD
That's what we called *Beast*
THE REVEREND, THE MADMAN, THE KNIFEMASTER.
@@kylemaducdoc reverend, oh reverend, is this all some sort of conspiracy?
@@Ronn_Vcrucified for no sins😞
@@unoriveskad5568 an image beneath me....
Val screaming and Zacky playing some lead parts. Good shit
Zacky play lead guitar before syn join
This is why Matt should be scared when Val gets mad XD
Misty Parrales right haha she’s terrifying in his song
I'd love to hear an arguement they had... lmao
What are u guys talking about?
@@LinkDeo imagining them fighting with each other, screaming like this lol
@@Eclipse1988 oh I see 😂😂 I love this band so much lol. Doesn't Val have a twin sister and syns with her? I read something about that online somewhere but I was iffy about it
2022 and Val screams at 3:12 are still so peak, she is a beast
It’s uncommon for women to be able to false cord scream so well. I always thought she was incredibly talented
@@ExternusArmy I come back here since 2015 since I first heared the song, this live performance is gold, and Val participation just elevates it even more, does somebody knows what is she doing nowdays?
@@notmiscares3918 she owns some fashion brands iirc
Who tf was that??? What's she from
@@happygilmore8321 That's M Shadow's wife, then girlfriend.
So cool seeing such old footage of these guys! They were fucking awesome back then and are even more so now. FoREVer.
Same :)
Am i the only one that got chills up my spine when Val started screaming?
Nope. :)
No it’s 2022 almost and it’s still crazy
Lmao! Yes! But That kick right before the scream was epic
nooooo, i love it, the tingling sensation is amazing
Yup. Weirdo
3:04 matt + the rev combo screaming 😍
dude the rev is a legend frfr

Plus VAL!!🤣❤️
That part hit my soul
@@Ronn_V"living?"

@@gabrieltorresdiroma7959 amo a7x desde os 12 aninhos
Its a Huntington Beach thing
Ommmgg they had like a 30 person crowd and now shit the have over like 10 million fans around the world!!!!!!
that's how they became this big
yeah like me i dont have FB cause its sucks
so they have more then 20 M fans
It was more like 150 people because they said almost every concert they had while doing the sounding the seventh trumpet tour
Man this was their golden era. I'd give anything to be able to see them perform in their early days one more time.
Anyone else keep rewinding to the part where val starts screaming?
YES! chills each time, she is insanely amazing!
Lol yea
20 times!
yes
the sidewinder me
Val is a beast! I'd so be down to hear Art of Subconscious Illusion live WITH Val on it...I feel like it'd be pretty killer to hear now.
Damn Rev was so different back then, they all was different but The Rev look like another person
yeah, he started straightening his hair and cleaned up his act. Rip Jimmy
was this before he had shades and long cool hair?
the dancing uncle at 2:48 ... the most original dance I have ever seen :)
3:09 Val screaming her part
Val killed it on her part! So badass
3:49 IIIilluUuUuuUsSsSSsiiIiiOooOOooonNn! haha definitely not used to sing.
Jd316 now it’s sunny disposition lyrics too haha
After that random dude screamed into the mic like that no one laughed surprisingly. Not even Matt.
Wow now these guys are one of the biggest bands in the world right now AWESOME
0:30 damn syn, you change so so much
Valary matches M. Shadows.
July X They are married now.
I know and they have children
They've been together that long...
Ever since this Album?... Wow
Tht is just wowwwww
They weren't together at the time, she was their manager. They didn't get together until later on.
Matts scream back then was fucking gold, shit, i miss this avenged :( HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIMMY THE REV SULLIVAN! 32 today!
watching live concerts when A7X were young on their early years . now i can die in peace
holy shit dude thank you for this piece of history!!! awesome seeing Zack go so hard back in the day, he's really the most punk out of the group. seeing them all this young is crazy
for how young and new they were, they were tight as hell in this
Valary should be in the band.....
this is adorable
dude that part with val screaming brought me to tears. shits so fucking badass.
3:22 kung fu kick for the win lol :)
***** Haha, when did I say they suck music wise? Are you stalking my profile now? How pathetic. A7x rules
***** Dont forget this was over a decade ago
***** That's good then, at least you grew some brain cells to not finger over tar head andy.
***** Holy shit you're thick. Can't make a comeback so you diss mine. Haha, pathetic typical bvb fan. Yes tar head, you seen andys hair? He looks like he fell head first into a tar pit. And your the one who came here so what am I trying to accomplish?

Damnn. Valary can screammm XD
@Xerø yeah, but they weren't married at the time
Which one of them is Val married to?
@@starpaladinnelaj Matt. She's married to M. Shadows.
And Syn is married to Val's twin sister
Wonder if she could still pull that off?
good old A7X :)
I never seen avenged sevenfold so into there music
2:15 The Rev o.O TRY TO DO THAT, JOEY!
Shatterskin Gaming
How can you talk about Neil like that? That huge drumset hasn't always been there, he recorded most of their albums with a much smaller one, he's also a god
i don't know who is joey O.o can you his full name so i can search about him?
ah thanks!
MrKubiman i bet back on the day joey could have. The rev yes was a bad ass drummer but this shit with joey is so funny slipknot was awsome till vol. 3 then shit hit the fan.

Vals scream tho.
4:45 this guy was on a mission
this video is pure gold, love it ❤
These are two different codes edited together, I wanna see each of them in their own right 😮

omg. matt had sleeves and val gave me chills
Omg, I love Val's gutural

I love his screaming
I had no idea the "Punching slowly my mind can't change the speed" Was Val!!!! Omg!! They should do more with her!
Hell yeah, Val! My two fave tracks from the early years. Nice camera work! Good editing too :)
Wow, never thought I'd see a live video of this song. Haven't listened to avenged sevenfold since 2007.
It's weird as shit seeing these guys like this. Like they started out as a small band, making their way up. Even stranger like metalcore into whatever genre you could consider them now haha.
It's weird seeing their start, now look at them. Making history as gods on a big stage. It's inspiring.
Val is such a Badass. Now you can call her V. Shadows.
Imagine Val seeing this today lmao
Best live version of To End the Rapture
who dancens with a chair 2:45 lol
very very very very very old times😭
suprises me how baggy there clothes are compared to other harcore bands lol
Imperial Commando reminds me of early system of a down lol
Early 2000s bro, baggy clothes the norm
HOLY CRAP VAL!
Sounds amazing live if only they perform this song live right now in 2018
it's an amazing footage man!
Zacky slipped up a bit when Val came out was he staring at her ass or something? XD
2:07 Perfect coordination
I really miss these all days with M.Shadows. It will just never be the same
Matt: Cant use my abilities
Val: But i can still kick like a boss
I know Val was only up there for like 10 seconds but she is fucking badass.
i love valary sm
This is amazing! I was there
Dat "ILLUSIOOooOoON" GODDAMMIT I'M LAUGHING SO HARD :'D
Val starts at around 3:08
I wish they would play a show w these songs... ah
2020, and still interested while watching this old moment :')
Thanks for this guys
m shadows in a interview said that the rev did all the recordings in one take. probably didnt even use a click track either, he is one in a million
If I was my age now back in the late 90s I would have loved to have been there! Huntington Beach is one great city, and I find it awesome such a great band came from there!
the rev drum so tight, precise and powerfull!!!
We need more!! Excellent video! Would you ever consider putting up the full back yard video? It would be amazing to see, jimmy was a Machine back then
omg thank you for posting this video. I truely do appreciate watching all their old performances. I'm looking forward to seeing more footage. Thanks again. :DD
I just clicked to see Valary
Same
I fucking love Val. Shes fucking amazing!!!!1111
good times of sevenfold. :)
Eran unos niños ahi, que buena epoca.
Val with the David Lee Roth kick!
Damn, val has a voice!!
Omg i think i love val
OMFG Val is such a beast... THAT KICK!!!!! SO BADASS LOL
Look at these young fellows, I bet they'll become very influential and successful one day
prime time for this band.
And here we see a group of promising young nooblets
Wow, they should have Val do more rough vocals... This was a beast performance.
we need this kinda heavy Sevenfold back again today
I did NOT expect Synyster Gates to have a Parker Fly much before his Schecter, but THIS, this right here is history.
Now Zacky Vengeance using a cheapo SG does make more sense...
These guys will be popular someday..
hahaha, their baggy pants! that's cool man, especially the backyard footage.
I love you.
rev was truly a beast on the drums
I like how they sped up the song from the orinigal recording.
i hope Val has some vocals in the next A7X album!
Damn valary is a beast at screaming and she is crazzy
Lucky friend of yours to have A7X play in their BBC backyard
River and Cash would be so proud when they're old enough to watch this.
WAS THAT VAL?!!!
JOHNNY CHRIST DUDE,I can't believe it!
Huh get it?JOHNNY Christ?
I'll stop
Legion-_- LIG3R was Johnny Christ in the band at this point ? I know he didn’t play on the first album & that doesn’t look like him. Then again .. none of them look like that anymore.
No I believe Johnny joined when making waking the fallen I maybe wrong
It's matt wendt. He played with them for this album and demo. Also the bassist on a couple of pinkly smooth songs
Seeing the Rev made me cry (':
