Avenged Sevenfold, sometimes abbreviated to A7X, is a scary heavy metal/hard rock who will probably eat your kittens.The band formed when the members were in high school. Their first album was titled Sounding the Seventh Trumpet, and was recorded when the band members were eighteen years old. City of Evil, released on June 7, 2005, strays from metalcore, and adds a more "hard rock" sound with obvious influences ranging from Pantera and Metallica.
