Fearless Vampire Killers' Kier Kemp about A7X's "Betrayed": "No other band would do a riff like this"

Fearless Vampire Killers' Kier Kemp recently talked with Team Rock and chose his Top 11 Avenged Sevenfold. Below you can read an excerpt.
BETRAYED (City of Evil, 2005)
"They always start songs with amazingly classic riffs. No other band would do a riff like this. It’s so disjointed, but it works, and then the theatrical vocals come in and you’ve got another cracking M. Shadows chorus. A lot of people seem to hate his voice, but I love him. Especially when you see the band perform live. He nails it even better live, to be honest. He’s got a ridiculous range too, which you wouldn’t expect from such a massive bloke."
