Terrible news and The Rev was one of my favorite drummers. I enjoy A7X and although drummers are supposed to be an easy piece to replace I dont think its possible here. Rev was one of the best modern drummers out there and prayers to his and everyones family who lost a loved one..
RIP

I hate Avenged Sevenfold with a passion, but still, gotta feel sorry for his friends and relatives.

I'm an old goat who has no idea who this guy or his band is, but still, wow, 28 is too young to go.

I don't particularly mind this band...I think with a great singer they could have been phenomonal....I HATE their singers style....
Sad news for sure, 28 is way too young to be passing away....
RIP.

This. Their singer is the festering wart on an otherwise nice booby.
Still too young to die.

I like the singer once he stopped doing the nu-metal shrieking. I think he sounds a lot like Mike Patton.

I'm in the can't stand the singer camp. 28 is just way too early to go.

He does. Have you heard the City Of Evil album?

Not all the way through, but I've heard enough of them and I haven't heard any Patton sounds. Weird. I'll listen again.

There is a similar nasal quality...but A7X's singer doesn't make the goofy weird sounds Patton does...

I guess I should clarify; I'm talking about Faith No More-era Patton.

I too cant stand them, think they are terrible, but even so this is tragic news. My thoughts go out to the family, band, friends, and of course the fans.

I'm with you. I didn't like them very much, but I always liked the drum parts. RIP.

I really respect how even people who don't like the band have been respectful in this thread. I know boards where people would be ragging on how much they hate the band with little regard for the fact that a bandmember has died.
