I think Matt is an incredible vocalist. He kills it live too. One of the best front men out there. Their CoE image was over the top, but now they even say they shudder at the things they used to wear haha

Oh my bad, I thought there was a lot more, sorry! Still kinda sucks for Aron, their new drummer.

haha yup! I'm sure there are countless fan ones, but A7X has officially put out 2 (well 3 if you count Nightmare, but eh). It sucks because Arin has such big shoes to fill, not only behind the kit but in the hearts of all the fans, but he's getting the job done!

Whoops Arin, my bad! Yea for sure. I am a die hard OLD Confide fan, not an A7X fan, that is why I am giving this band a chance again. But I have massive respect for The Rev.

fair enough! He's an amazing drummer! I've been an A7X fan since '04 (as cliche as that sounds to be a fan before they were big) haha but I saw Arin's first show with A7X last January and he killed it. I wonder how the dudes in Confide feel about all this lol

For sure. I liked their albums up until City of Evil. That was their last good album IMO.

I would like to hear what the Confide dudes are saying about this. Arin left when the band was still good haha!

I think their self-titled album was what really set them apart, with all the different genre and sound influences. Plus nobody out there writes music like "A Little Piece of Heaven" which is a ridiculously good piece of music. I thought Nightmare was a great record too. IMO Waking the Fallen and City of Evil are their two best, but their musicianship on the s/t and Nightmare is still incredible.
