Album Rating: 4.1
I Grew up with Avenged Sevenfold in my teenage years, they were one of the first Metal bands i actively began listening to, and Nightmare, to this day, is still one of the best Metal album to me
Come Hail to the King and these guys shamelessly ripped off Alice in Chain, The Entire song of "Sad but True" by Metallica, thinking we won't fucking notice it, but fine, because after that they gave us the Stage which was sort of a flop, but at the same time, a return to form, and with a concept that actually aged really fucking well, I won’t pretend to be a genius when it comes to reviewing music, or any kind of Media in general, I don’t use fancy wordings like someone from fucking Loudwire, or Metalc(s)ucks, or even fucking Metal Injection, and quite frankly, I think my reviews suck, I don’t have much faith in them, I just type whatever comes to my mind, but once in a blue fucking moon, a record either manages to take me off my feet with how good they are, or, how fucking atrocious and disastrous it is, so come the new Avenged Sevenfold album and its quite literally the worst fucking album they could have ever made, this makes Hail to the King an actual 10/10 in comparison, there is not a single positive I could write about this shit, it would be like picking up a dog turd from the street and tossing it in the garbage, at the end of the day, you did something for the environment, but at the cost of dirtying your hand with literal shit.

This is a very good concept album. The idea, the execution, the fusion of genres.
The musicianship is intriguing to say the least, never boring.
Can't wait to listen to their next effort, I'm sure there is still room for improvement.

I can't stop coming back to this! I keep picking up on new things every time I listen too, which is great.
Album reminds me of when I first got into Coheed and listened through The Willing Well's. First listen is a bit like "huh, ok", 2nd listen goes "oh, alright" and then all of a sudden everything falls into place and it all makes sense.
I can totally get why people get turned off by their first listen. But oh man, if you give it the time it flourishes into something special.
