Avenged Sevenfold is one of the greatest American rock band , formed in 1999. The band consist of vocalist Matt Shadows , lead guitarist Synyster Gates , ryhtm guitarist Zacky Vengeance and bassist Johnny Christ. This band emerged with a metalcore sound on their debut , Sounding The Seventh Trumpet , which included primarily screaming vocals. The band changed their style in their third album and first major label release , City Of Evil , which features more melodic vocals and power ballads. The band continued to explore new sounds with their self titled release and enjoyed continued mainstream success before their past drummer , James "The Rev" Sullivan , died of heart disease and other effects of chemicals in his body in 2009. Despite his death , the band continued on with help of the Dream Theater drummer , Mike Portnoy and released their fifth album , Nightmare , in 2010 which debuted on the top spot of the Billboard 200 - the first for the band.
The band themselves have received much credit for their worldwide mainstream success and were most notably proclaimed as one of the leaders and key bands in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal and were featured as second place on Ultimate Guitar's Top Ten Bands of the Decade.
