@spike010 @wyliewylie Which is their best album, in your opinion?
Are you thinking of buying one?
Its hard for me to say, they're all great, id say... hmm id alsmot say i like waking the fallen, city of evil, self titled, and nightmare equally, them hail to the king and Sounding the seventh are not as good.
Waking is more of a metalcore feel, with screaming an singing, less technical soloing and stuff like that
City of evil is hard to describe. Probably their softest album, along with HTTk, not to many heavy parts that the other albums have. Lots of great guitar, fantastic drumming as well. Probably their least generic material. Some long epic tracks as well (well i guess all albums have that)
Self titled is what i like to call, an experimental masterpiece. Every song is different from the last so if thats something you like, then go for it. If you like an album to flow better then maybe not.
But its got a ton of variety and amazing moments!
Nightmare is easily their most proggressive album if thats something you like with songs just transforming from one thin into something completely different.
Its got a tom of emotion, being about the death of the Rev. It flows very nicely as well.
And the last two songs on the album are crazy crazy unnaturally good lol
Sorry for my long ass post but i really like a7x haha
EDIT
After reading my comment over i can see that i favour nightmare myself haha.
Every song is great, from the heavyness, to the ballads!
