Avenged Sevenfold - Synyster Gates + The Rev Solo (Live at House of Blues, AC NJ 12-12-08)

Avenged Sevenfold playing a preview of a new song December 12th, 2008 at the House of Blues in Atlantic City, NJ.

After the show I met M. Shadows. I asked him what the deal was with this instrumental they played. He said "You can expect to hear it in the future." Then told me they were to start recording in "June of 2009." Obviously, the last part wasn't true, because they are currently recording now.
Update 2010: Now that Nightmare has come out, I believe it's fairly obvious that this didn't make the cut. Avenged is notorious for not writing on the road, so whatever this instrumental was, I guess it shall remain that way. It seems as if when they finally got to writing Nightmare, this didn't have a place on the record for this.

Update 2018: This instrumental jam, which includes a drum solo by The Rev, has been unofficially titled "Unwind the Chainsaw" by fans for several years. In 2013, during the Hail to the King promotional period, bootleg audio of a performance was uploaded to a SoundCloud account belonging to Avenged, and this piece was entitled "In A House, In A Heartbeat," which would make this a cover of the John Murphy theme from 28 Days Later. However, this has never been brought up in an interview by Avenged or specifically verified by any band member. From my own experience, Matt said that this was a piece they were working on for the upcoming album (which would turn out to be "Nightmare"). So is it a scrapped song idea? A cover? Just a live jam? You decide!

This is a re-upload from my old account "Pittsburghfan0621."

R.I.P. Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan
