Avenged Sevenfold is an important and influential band in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal. Their material ranges across many genres – including several crossover genres, often leaving the concept of genres altogether (especially in their most recent albums). For example, Avenged Sevenfold’s debut Sounding the Seventh Trumpet consisted almost entirely of metalcore sound, however consisted of several deviations to this genre, most notably in “Streets” which adopts a punk style, and “Warmness on the Soul,” which consists of mainly piano, and could be considered soft rock. On Waking The Fallen, the band displayed a much more refined and fluent metalcore album that was able to harness the rawness of the first album, and add more mature and intricate musical elements. On City of Evil, Avenged Sevenfold’s third album, the band chose to abandon the metalcore genre, developing a more punk metal/thrash style, very much like bands such as Bullet for My Valentine and Trivium. Also, the drumming on both these albums is played in a more thrash-influenced alternative metal style, similar to that of Slipknot. Avenged Sevenfold’s self-titled album consists of several deviations to less consistent genres and styles from the album’s main hard rock and heavy metal songs, most notably in “Dear God,” which adopts a country style, and “A Little Piece of Heaven,” which includes elements of Broadway show tunes, using primarily brass instruments and stringed orchestra to take over most of the role of the lead and rhythm guitar. The band has changed considerably since its first album; since then they have been characterized as a heavy band with screams and growls combined with clean vocals that one can expect from the metalcore genre. Since the release of Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough, the band has resumed screaming vocals during live shows.

Avenged Sevenfold is the fourth studio album by the American rock band, released on October 30, 2007 by Warner Bros. Records. It debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200. Avenged Sevenfold has sold over 540,000 copies in the US and over 1,000,000 copies worldwide and was certified Gold. The album has received mixed reviews according to metacritic. It placed number 4 on the charts at its release. It also received mixed reactions from the Avenged Sevenfold fan base due to the almost complete rehashing of the band’s musical style. Some fans praised the new sound as it did contain key components of their previous successes with some new elements although some fans saw it in a negative light as it differed greatly from the sound of their previous albums. The album won the Kerrang! Award for Best Album in 2008.
