i was never really an avenged sevenfold fan until i listened to this particular album... i thought that although melodically they were great that m shadows was just a flash in the pan that would blow his voice out after two albums. i was incredibly wrong; although there is still alot of screaming he has really challenged his voice and sings more in tune with the raging guitar riffs and strong rhythm section. i would consider this to be a "must-buy"
What's great about it: melodically driven, m shadows employs many different vocal techniques
