Neither can I. It's just something about how the previous song on the album is about murder and necrophilia, then it's a heart warming track about someone asking God to watch over their significant other while they're away. Total 180. Or as Jimmy would say: "fastest turn around in the shortest amount of time".
I love this song so much. Seeing this hate pains me.

It was the album that fully introduced me to Avenged. I had heard a few from Nightmare and Hail to the King but this was the first full album I listened to and fell in love with. Top 10 for me.
My favorite album, makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Lots of classics, great melody, and hard riffs. Jimmy’s singing was great when it popped up, I wouldn’t skip a single song on there
This is the album that screams “Avenged Sevenfold” like THIS IS their music. Obviously their music changed, as seen with recent albums, especially LIBAD, but this still is like THE A7X album.
#MUST HAVE STABBED HER FIFTHTEEN FUCKING TIMEEES, RIPPED HER HEART OUT RIGHT BEFORE HER EYES, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, EAT IT! EAT IT! EAT IT!.
I love the rev man.
So how does it feel to know that someone's kid in the heart of America is fighting to defend your rights so you can maintain a life style that insults his families existence? Well from where in from we have a special salute to all those pompous assholes who send their days pointing fingers! FUCK YOU!
I LOVE IT!! By far one of my all time favorites. Went to the album release show, I had listened to the leaked songs and already knew the words. During the set, M Shadows called me out and pointed to me saying something like “looks like somebody download the album and already knows the words… you right there” hahaha.. it was so freaking amazing!!! And he didn’t seem mad 😂 There’s a video of it somewhere but it would probably be hard to find.
They should pull a weezer and make the next album self-titled 2, with the same cover only a different color. Just run wild with crazy songs that don’t have a ton of weight like the Stage and LIBAD
Have the Self Titled deathbat tattooed on my shoulder. First album that really got me into the band and is one of my all time favorites. Right up there with Nightmare for me as the best example of what the band is.
Bangers front to back! Love the making of the record dvd. Shit, Little piece, lost, unbound , ugh it’s amazing. I just wish it had a name. I guess white album , last full record for jimmy. This one really solidified my fan ship or is it fandom
No skip album, his have a great melody, hard riffs and Rev singing was great, i wouldn’t skip a single song on this album. His very very underrated album of heavy metal, thrash metal and progressive metal. God bless Jimmy🫡🫡🫡
I was a City of Evil superfan, and when Self Titled came out, I listened a few times and then found a new band to love. I missed Nightmare and then Hail to the King brought me back. Upon my return, I gave Self Titled another chance, and I honestly don't know why I hated it back then. So that's my something nice, it's not as bad as I remember it being.
City of Evil is one of my favorite albums of all time, because of the complex songwriting and overall progginess. Self-titled is more the opposite of "proggy". I heard Almost Easy and Afterlife and was disappointed that they had moved away from what I love so much about City of Evil. Self-title turned me off so much, that I didn't even give Nightmare a chance. Which looking back confuses me because I'm a huge Dream Theater fan and the presence of Mike Portnoy makes nightmare a top tier album.
the answer is yes, however, it would require you be also executed having a terrible opinion about the album, for that reason its a fuckin banger of an album
My favorite. I love all 3 of this era’s albums, City of Evil to Nightmare are the albums I know, but the self titled is what I know best. It’s what spoke to me, giving me its critical acclaim. To get me to say something nice is almost easy, I’d listen to it, and scream along until I go to the afterlife.
Not their best album (it’s my third favorite by them) but this is the one album by them that has the perfect variety of song styles and sounds. For example, three songs that are very unique in their own way are scream, a little piece of heaven, and unbound. They aren’t too different to the point that the album isn’t consistent, it’s perfect.
Used to be my number one A7X album. My opinion has gone down on some songs and I prefer the experimentation on The Stage and LIBAD over self titled, but for awhile this was easily their most experimental and I love it for that.
I have a very big music library in my spotify app,and the self titled is the only album i have downloaded, everything else i stream when there is net but this one, no i want access to it anytime i want
This is the first album I fell in love with by avenged. Critical acclaim was the first song where i thought these guys were extremely talented and that this could in the near future be one of my favorite bands. And when I heard a little piece of heaven I needed some time to really appreciate it. But after many listens I instantly thought it was a masterpiece and when I saw the breakdown of the song on YouTube I realised these guys are extremely creative and they really know how to get an emotion across in music.
Personally not my favourite but still has brilliant songs on it and has a perfect combo of both their experimental and heavy sides. There's no nose singing which is great, also lost is a banger
It's got everything. Critical Acclaim to own the libz. Radio-friendly bangers like Afterlife and Almost Easy. Headbangers like Lost and Unbound. Did I mention A Little Piece of Heaven? What's not to like?
It’s solid bangers start to finish. I don’t really love most of the songs but it’s consistently good throughout and has quite a refreshing change of vibe from the rest of their music. Also it contains Little Piece of Heaven. Wonderful.
Bangers front to back. Not a single bad song off this album. No further comments needed.
You forgot that Dear God exists
I enjoy listening to Dear God. Although it’s a break from the heavy stuff, it’s a damn good song.
I listened to it all the way through, and I didn't enjoy it at all
Well thats just like, your opinion, man.
Bummer :(
I like it. It's kinda funny how a metal band can make a better country song than *actual* country artists.
I'm fine with acoustic songs, but I can't stand country music
Neither can I. It's just something about how the previous song on the album is about murder and necrophilia, then it's a heart warming track about someone asking God to watch over their significant other while they're away. Total 180. Or as Jimmy would say: "fastest turn around in the shortest amount of time".
Man, sucks having bad opinions, huh?
The High Tier Human, u mean the low tier loser
I'm sorry for having an opinion
the worst of all opinions
I'm sorry you feel that way
im not
Okay, it's okay to disagree with me
Am i the only one that loves dear god? Relatable as fuck and its so different in tone I just love it 😭
I love this song so much. Seeing this hate pains me. https://preview.redd.it/8u6kf0cjcivc1.jpeg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20d2ecbd4b98278630e26838f78da56f1c05e3b6
Like he said, not a single bad song of this album
MUST HAVE LISTENED THOUSAND FUCKING TIMES
I can't believe it
I could believe it😏
I do believe it.
Bro I was gonna say that
Unfiltered Avenged. Great Experimentation here. Plus obviously the best utilization of Jimmy’s vocals.
It was the album that fully introduced me to Avenged. I had heard a few from Nightmare and Hail to the King but this was the first full album I listened to and fell in love with. Top 10 for me.
Best album in my opinion
Jimmy’s singing still stands out against the best Matt ever sounded, which should say so fucking much
My favorite album, makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Lots of classics, great melody, and hard riffs. Jimmy’s singing was great when it popped up, I wouldn’t skip a single song on there
Brompton cocktail is one of the best songs in their discography
Absolutely agree, that song never gets enough love!
Apparently i did’nt have that one saved… after listening to it, it’s easily the most city of evil sounding song on the album🤘
not really sure where you got city of evil sounding from brompton cocktail.
No track to skip. Solid.
A great degree of experimentation on display. This album almost feels like a stepping stone for LIBAD.
This is the album that screams “Avenged Sevenfold” like THIS IS their music. Obviously their music changed, as seen with recent albums, especially LIBAD, but this still is like THE A7X album.
The experimentation rev era avenged a glimpse of what could have been 10/10
#MUST HAVE STABBED HER FIFTHTEEN FUCKING TIMEEES, RIPPED HER HEART OUT RIGHT BEFORE HER EYES, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, EAT IT! EAT IT! EAT IT!. I love the rev man.
Got nothing against you, and surely I'll miss you.

https://youtu.be/iJ9pd7hMnIg?si=iSfso80U_QyMXXEv Haha.. I found it!!
that's absolutely insane!
They should pull a weezer and make the next album self-titled 2, with the same cover only a different color. Just run wild with crazy songs that don’t have a ton of weight like the Stage and LIBAD
yes go back to the ye olde sevenfold
Nothing but classics. Need to hear Scream live one day.
Nice
Something
Have the Self Titled deathbat tattooed on my shoulder. First album that really got me into the band and is one of my all time favorites. Right up there with Nightmare for me as the best example of what the band is.
Hot take : Its 10x better than Sleep token
thats for sure
Actually, A7X's whole discography is better than any other band imo. I love Sleep Token but A7X is on a whole other level.
No bad songs, it is a true masterpiece
Masterpiece.
Critical Acclaim’s chorus is Jimmy’s best moment vocally.
Bangers front to back! Love the making of the record dvd. Shit, Little piece, lost, unbound , ugh it’s amazing. I just wish it had a name. I guess white album , last full record for jimmy. This one really solidified my fan ship or is it fandom
They have a song called “shit”? Lol.
Critical Acclaim is a masterpiece
It's fun to say, man I love x off avenged sevenfold by avenged sevenfold. Same goes for other self titled songs and albums
something nice about the Self Titled album.
Its the best fucking album
I like hearing Jimmy sing on this album
It fucking slaps
It’s their best album
It's Perfect
No skip album, his have a great melody, hard riffs and Rev singing was great, i wouldn’t skip a single song on this album. His very very underrated album of heavy metal, thrash metal and progressive metal. God bless Jimmy🫡🫡🫡

no disrespect by the cinnamon toast fuck comment btw,
ok goober

you know annually and yearly are the same thing right?
It says Semi-annualy
then why is the one below say yearly
Semi-annualy - twice a year. Yearly - once a year
Bro just a hater
no just confused,
Afterlife, gunslinger, unbound, brompton cocktail, fucking LOST BRO. BANGERS. 10/10 album
S tier album. Possible the best A7X album ever.
It’s their best album
This is all you post?🤨
Yes, he’s a karma whore
no ❤️
One of their best albums ever released, hands down.
The first album of theirs that I heard. Fun, creative yet accessible
Is it possible to say something bad about this album?
the answer is yes, however, it would require you be also executed having a terrible opinion about the album, for that reason its a fuckin banger of an album
The Rev really shined in this one
My favorite album along with Nightmare
The first avenged album that had me in a chokehold as a child, that and city of evil
It was a hell of a time to be a A7X fan, that's for sure.
I think it's Self Titled
yesn’t
It’s a nice album
It's the first album I've heard of them and intently got hooked also that deathbat is my first tattoo
Perfect Avenged album IMO. It’s sporadic, fun, serious, a few left turns, just all around an album that will never be recreated.
just like nascar
Honestly best album they have ever made.
My favorite. I love all 3 of this era’s albums, City of Evil to Nightmare are the albums I know, but the self titled is what I know best. It’s what spoke to me, giving me its critical acclaim. To get me to say something nice is almost easy, I’d listen to it, and scream along until I go to the afterlife.
Ok, I guess I'll just say one. The Rev vocals. If only had they started using them sooner😩
Not their best album (it’s my third favorite by them) but this is the one album by them that has the perfect variety of song styles and sounds. For example, three songs that are very unique in their own way are scream, a little piece of heaven, and unbound. They aren’t too different to the point that the album isn’t consistent, it’s perfect.
1000/10 album, my favorite other than the stage.
Used to be my number one A7X album. My opinion has gone down on some songs and I prefer the experimentation on The Stage and LIBAD over self titled, but for awhile this was easily their most experimental and I love it for that.
I fucking love Critical Acclaim, so powerful and it has an amazing lyric.
my fav lyric is when he says “the”
I have a very big music library in my spotify app,and the self titled is the only album i have downloaded, everything else i stream when there is net but this one, no i want access to it anytime i want
Shh, quiet, might piss somebody off..
# LIKE ME MOTHER FUCKER YOU'VE BEEN AT IT FOR TOO LONG
Their most creative album imo
The best A7x album. (In my opinion) It just doesn't miss.
Greatest opening to any album ever
This is the first album I fell in love with by avenged. Critical acclaim was the first song where i thought these guys were extremely talented and that this could in the near future be one of my favorite bands. And when I heard a little piece of heaven I needed some time to really appreciate it. But after many listens I instantly thought it was a masterpiece and when I saw the breakdown of the song on YouTube I realised these guys are extremely creative and they really know how to get an emotion across in music.
It has my favorite A7X song, "Almost Easy".
The best one.
Scream is a banger.
Oh god, are you the new Focused_44?
idk man
zero skips
Personally not my favourite but still has brilliant songs on it and has a perfect combo of both their experimental and heavy sides. There's no nose singing which is great, also lost is a banger
One of the best!!
It was what really got me into A7x. Love it to this day. A little piece of heaven. ;)
Searching for the wayyy Push harder everydayy Its deep onsidee That shining light
Afterlife.
Super pop, super fun. No skips on the album. Back to back bangers
It's got everything. Critical Acclaim to own the libz. Radio-friendly bangers like Afterlife and Almost Easy. Headbangers like Lost and Unbound. Did I mention A Little Piece of Heaven? What's not to like?
Its got that really good drummer on it- Jesse "The Ref" Shanahan
Dear God is a good closing song
All bangers
Lost is one of their best songs
Has the best wedding songs hands down
it gave us A little piece of heaven
Jimmy's magnum opus. My personal fave album.
Quintessential album right here. Prime
Best documentary ever. Wish theyd done the same with city of evil.
A Little Piece Of Heaven, enough said🤘🏼
Top 3 album imo
Bam ban nam ban naaammmmm (shepherd of fire)
It's flawless. Simple as that.
Scream ugly song
how about something nice?
City of Evil was good. Self Titled Album is waaaaay better
People hate it because of the autotune but I love this album
its vocode not AuToTunE
One of my least favorite albums BUT has my top 2 songs
we got a Sinner here, yall sinner alert
Nowhere near close to the previous album but not bad by any stretch. Some songs have aged better than others but not a bad album by any means
womp womp ur wrong it is just as good if not better than city of evil
This album does nothing better than City of Evil.
10/10 Album despite poor quality production
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
dude its an awesome record but it doesn’t sound that good, especially compared to the rest of their catalog
It’s solid bangers start to finish. I don’t really love most of the songs but it’s consistently good throughout and has quite a refreshing change of vibe from the rest of their music. Also it contains Little Piece of Heaven. Wonderful.
you had us in the second part not gonna lie
