Avenged Sevenfold (A7X) released their 4th Album 10/30/2007. It was a fairly quite release, mainly due to that the first single off of the album "Critical Acclaim" literally gives the Anti war movement the finger.
QUOTE ('Critical Acclaim-A7X')
...so how does it feel to know that someone's kid in the heart of America has blood on his hands,
fighting to defend your rights so you can maintain a lifestyle that insults his family's very existance,
Well, were I'm from we have a special salute that we aim high in the air,
towards all those pompous ~edit~ who spend their days pointing fingers


It's the most political song they've ever done. A lot of "fans" are saying that A7X has sold out since M. Shadows isn't screaming anymore (not since vocal chord surgery in the aftermath of the "Waking the Fallen" album) but frankly the format is still the same musically and lyrically. If you've heard "Waking the Fallen" and "Sounding the Seventh Trumpet" you'll be accustomed to the trumpets, violins, and pianos that make a return after being absent for "City of Evil". Nothing has really changed they've just moved from the Metalcore genre to actual Heavy Metal which is repectable considering they havent changed to musical style really.

7 of 8 in my Exaile player. I really enjoy their stuff. These guys are the next Metallica or Pantera. They are redefining Heavy metal as we speak.
