 Okay, you people piss me off! Avenged Sevenfold are not ""poppy"" okay? They are from southern California, for god's sake, give them a break! Being in that area means that regardless of who you are, you're still going to end up with a lot of pop and punk influences. As is said by Matt Shadows himself, ""We're from southern Cali, so we grew up listening to Rancid and Green Day, but at the same time listening to stuff like Slayer. So we were like, 'I want to play in a band like that,' 'But I want to be in a band like that!' We compromised the two and made metalcore."" See? You don't have to be as stupid as you sound now, do you? -Emogoth
