|
| Avenged Sevenfold memorably beat out R&B Singers Rihanna and Chris Brown, Panic! at the Disco, Angels and Airwaves and James Blunt for the title of Best New Artist at the MTV Video Music Awards, thanks in part to their Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas-inspired song “Bat Country.” [14] |
|
| song references (source 4) |
|
| The title of Avenged Sevenfold’s song “Chapter Four” refers to the fourth chapter of Genesis, in which the story of Cain and Abel takes place. The song’s subject also appears to be this story. “Beast and the Harlot”, yet another song derived from the Bible, comes from the Book of Revelation only it is written in the first person and refers to the punishment of Babylon the Great, world empire and seat of false religion. Another biblical reference occurs in the song “The Wicked End”. In this song, several times it is said “dust the apple off, savor each bite, and deep inside you know Adam was right.” |
