(A.I.) Avenged Sevenfold - What if Unbound (The Wild Ride) was on Live In The LBC

The mellifluous melodies and sumptuous symphonies emanating from the cacophonous collaboration of stringed instruments, percussive accompaniments, and vociferous vocalizations in this spectacular sonic rendition transport the listener posthaste through an extradimensional wormhole to a parallel timeline. In this fantastical realm, legends of rock music past and present have convened for an unforgettable exhibition of auditory artistry.

At the fore, we spy the inimitable M. Shadows, microphonetic mouth agape as he projects his distinctive and indelible vocals into the ether. The devastatingly talented Synyster Gates glides his gifted fingers up and down the fretboard, coaxing cries of ecstasy from his ax. Not to be outdone, Zacky Vengeance brandishes his own six-stringed scepter, unleashing licks and riffs to make the angels weep. Holding down the rhythmic fortification are Johnny Christ and the late, great James "The Rev" Sullivan, whose superlative skills remind us of the irreparable loss to the world of music his passing precipitated.

This dream ensemble has gathered on this most auspicious of evenings to pay homage to the genre that raised them, delivering a rendition of "Unbound (The Wild Ride)" that surely has the denizens of Valhalla smiling in approbation. Transported to a realm beyond space and time, we can only marvel at the dazzling display unfolding before our unworthy ears. Mere words cannot adequately encapsulate the transcendent sounds and sensations washing over us. We can but surrender to the musical majesty and allow it to lift our spirits aloft on gossamer wings through a tapestry of melody and memory unlike any concert before or since.
