working on another album without James "The Rev" Sullivan, is not easy for A7X (Avenged Sevenfold). 'Nightmare' is a nightmare without The Rev. Is Mike Portnoy is comparable to that? The Rev died on December 28, 2009 due to an overdose. Heavy metal universe was mourning the loss of one of the world's best drummer.
Dissolve in grief by A7X not the best way for the ideals of The Rev wanted to continue to see a band that loved it fluttered in the music scene. Finally finished fifth album is cultivated with the help of Mike Portnoy, former drummer of Dream Theater. Mike makes furore after taking the decision to leave the band for Dream Theater to help A7X album. In A7X, Mike is not a permanent member. He just fills the drum on the album 'Nightmare' and support their tour. Unknown if Mike will change his mind and want to join. Mike is one of the spearheads of Dream Theater from their debut album was released in 1986. Dream Theater is now the middle of open auditions to find a new drummer. Problem albums, punches and beat The Rev Mike of course different. Both have its own distinctive touch. Album 'Nightmare' as that sounds cleaner and more mature now. Not all tracks contain harsh tones with melody blaring. 'So Far Away,' so one of the catchy single ballad on the album. So also with 'Buried Alive'. But of course their single song so loud, 'Nightmare' which opens with a tinkling piano and strings. Drum punch barrage directly accompanying the melody. Ready to headbang and screaming? So is the song 'Welcome to the Family', which opened a barrage of drums. The real nightmare might be heard in the song 'Fiction'. This is the last song creation The Rev. He made the song three days before his death. A7X was agreed wrapped with piano music along the track. The vocalist sang with troubled tones. Deep sorrow. The Rev also agree with Johnny. For The Rev, A7X is a family that can only be separated by death. And the guy who likes to wear a cross necklace to prove it. Tracklist album 'Nightmare' A7X:
