Avenged Sevenfold - Dancing Dead [Official Audio]

Diamonds In The Rough was originally released on CD in 2008 as part of the DVD+CD release “Live in the LBC/Diamonds in the Rough”. It is a compilation of b-sides recorded during the making of the band’s self-titled 2007 debut, rarities, covers and other non-album tracks. The 2020 vinyl and digital release of the album has been remastered and is expanded by 5 tracks, featuring the unreleased track “Set Me Free” (recorded during the “Hail To The King” sessions). It also includes other hard-to-find tracks such as the fan-favorite “St, James”, “4AM” and “Lost It All”. The 16 track album also includes the band’s cover of Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid”, which originally came out in 2009 on the Warner Bros album “Covered”. The vinyl is released on limited edition clear vinyl.

This solo is without a doubt one of the most innovative sounding things I’ve ever heard

[infosecdefender]

this has possibly the catchiest hook of any of their songs

[immanuelrohy]

one of their best songs. should've been a-side material!

[krisbee]

I was about 13 when I fell in love with Avenged Sevenfold, and now I'm 26 going on 27 and they're still my favorite band. Sometimes I forget how much of a fangirl I use to be until I catch myself listening to their music singing every single lyric.

[nikolas_navarro]

One of the best solos in A7X history! This track is killer!

[EminemKingOfRap]

The solo is one of their best ever, and the fact that Zacky made it shows you how incredibly talented the whole band is. GOD i love it

[lotrcdefender]

“Tick tock the time bomb has been recognized, pressurized”

I can say that over and over and never fail to have goosebumps.

[Xevonarin]

Most of the songs on Diamonds in the Rough weren't quite ready for album release and it shows. Songs like Crossroads, while having some very solid ideas and being not all that bad, don't quite feel finished>

Except this one. This song is fucking fire. Why this got passed over for the album release I'll never know.

[obektas]

This one includes one of the catchiest choruses of all time.

[RespiteofChampions]

Hear me out, y'all. Dancing Dead is a cult CLASSIC everyone has to love. It is just WAY TOO DAMN GOOD.

[tsikel]

Absolutely the most underrated A7X song of all time

[juiuiui]

Can anybody explain why this song is barely known? It's one of their best songs, at least a very, very good one!

[MapuiaRalte]

My favorite Diamonds in the Rough track, hands down. I remember keeping it on repeat back in 2009 and getting goosebumps everytime.

[gubitiful]

No fuckin band makes me feel like A7X does. Thank you for existing.

Dead men, they celebrate
As the final chapter fades away
'Cause they can't hide
We can see their flesh is rotten
The band plays a hopeful tune
The champagne is poured as they socialize
But look in their eyes, hide in the light!
Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancing in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax, enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancing in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change, told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watching the
Dead dancing in their graves
Bones covered up by suits
As the visible scars, they multiply
Kiss it goodbye
I'm too stubborn and I will destroy
Tick, tock, the time bomb has been
Recognized and pressurized
Nowhere to hide
Swallowing light
Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancing in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax, enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancing in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change, told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watching the
Dead dancing in their graves
I feel a coming strength
And now it's too late to change
Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancing in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax, enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancing in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change, told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watching the
Dead dancing in their graves
Feel, feel a coming strength
And now it's too late to change
Feel, feel a coming strength
And now it's too late to change
Feel, feel a coming strength
And now it's too late to change
Feel, feel a coming strength
And now it's too late to change.

[randysuggs]

This song have one of my favorite solos of all time.

[adeayu]

Best solo ever, never boring since 2008 🔥🔥🔥

[That_One_User_]

I still have the CD unscratched for the past 10 years, along with the Self Titled album, City of Evil, Nightmare and Waking The Fallen ^-^

[locochester]

"Tick tock, the time bomb has been recognized, has been presurized" Man, I fucking love that part.

[nebulacraft]

I cannot explain how much I love this song. It just can’t be put into words.
