Just listened along to the song as I read your piece. Enjoyed a lot of parts of it, but don't know that I'll return to it too often. I do enjoy how sweeping/narrative-y it feels. There's a handful of Avenged Sevenfold songs that I enjoy, most of all Beast and the Harlot, which I was introduced to through Guitar Hero 2.
It's not my thing I'm afraid (its the vocals and the production, too clean, if i wanted this style I'd go for Coheed and Cambria who have great solos and harmonies!) but "that familiar rush of joy" is more important than my opinion or any one else's for that matter!
Never heard the song before. Listened to it and hated it. But damn, this was one fine piece of writing, Becky!
Haha thank you so much! I’m glad you listened to it!
