Best Songs From Avenged Sevenfold's City of Evil

The Top Ten
1 Bat Country

Very surely some people love this song just for the fact that it is one of the most commercial songs of the band, but if something is true it is that I at least usually appreciate it for what it is, because really these types of songs were good music. from those times of open at 2000

I wish critical Acclaim was part off this album. Bat Country and that one are my all freaking time favorite songs by this band...

The lyrics are so ridiculous but the rest of the parts of the song makes him a very strong song for be the No. #1 contender in City of evil

Only an alien would think that Bat Country isn't the best song from the album. Long live to this masterpiece!

2 M.I.A.

The 8 minutes that this song lasts are the best I have ever witnessed in my life! I feel like Bat Country and Seize The Day could easily be No. 1 here, but M.I.A. Delve deeper into the art of war and serious subjects. I don't think City of Evil has another song as significant as this one, at least we could mention Blinded In Chains but it really is not at the height of a colossus like M.I.A.

The lyrics of this song are quite mesmerizing, but still the song managed to get a very epic guitar solo and in the end having one of the most incredible but at the same time sad closings of all music. I feel like there is no reason to put Bat Country at # 1 as it is just a commercial song and its meaning is nil compared to M.I.A.

This song is amazing, over 8 minutes long, great intro, great mid-song solo, great acoustic outro solo, and great subject. This song honestly sound like a seize the day and bat country combined because of great riffs and its almost somewhat of a power ballad.

Bat Country may have been the best since it came out most well known as a famous hit than a Avenged Sevenfold priority for City Of Evil, but how damn people then forget that M.I.A. (Missing In Action) actually EXISTS? This song it's aguarbly better with all and the extremist significance of his damned art.

3 Beast and the Harlot

This is an awesome album, best A7x album for me. All songs are heavy metal, and no song is crap like dear god and tonight the world dies. But for me, Beast and the harlot, Bat Country, and blinded in chains should be tied for 1st. Seize the day has meaning, great video, but as a song, sure not #3 for this list. It should be aroung 6 or 7

Why'd not to add Beast And the Harlot in the main place? It clearly has EVERYTHING ... Nothing but an excellent keyboards driving, Awesome drumming coreography, an stunning job by the guy on the riffs and at the same time by the guitarrist, I don't know how really should I call the song, but ain't nothing but a Groove thing!

First song I ever heard from avenged... On Guitar Hero 2. Instantly fell in love. One of the best riffs ever written, great drumming, amazing solo, need I say more.

Bat Country is great, but Beast and the Harlot is the personal favourite for me. A dark song with awesome guitar riffs and great lyrics to it.

4 Seize the Day

Better than beast and the harlot. Beautiful song. Bat Country might be a better song but not nearly as beautiful as this one.

Very slow and meaningful

5 Blinded in Chains

The lyrics are awesome. The guitars are awesome. The drums are awesome(listen 2:55) This song is awesome. UNDERRATED. In my opinion, is one of the best songs of A7X.

This song it's a Battlefield of strong expressions about condemner religions and politics.

Not just from City of Evil, but the best A7X song of all time, in my opinion.

This song might to be their catchiest one...

6 Sidewinder

I'm surprised... The two best songs of the album are the last ones -. -'
How can't you LOVE both of them? Sidewinder has that fantastic chorus and the best acoustic solo ever heard, and Betrayed has stunning vocals and is securely my favourite song from a7x. I think you should all listen very carefully to these two songs

Hard to decide as they're all amazing and transition well from very heavy to toned down yet intricate and beautiful. A catchy and beautiful chorus with great riffs an nice acoustic at the end

Maybe it's not their best song, but you must said that this song have the best ending..

Everyone here knows why Sidewinder is so Awesome And It's the Best of All Time!

7 The Wicked End

Are you kidding me! This will always be one of their best songs. Definitely the best from this album. Awesome bass intro, killer guitar and guitar solo, great and unique vocals/lyrics, and of course The Rev. Can't get enough. I hope they never quit making albums.

Easily the number 1 most addictive song by this band.

God damn, I can't stop listening to this song!

There's many, but I'll side with this song.

8 Strength of the World

This song is pretty underrated but I'm a big fan of this track and Synyster's solo. I personally would have this song on my top 10 A7X songs list. It's such a beautiful track and it sticks to you. One of the best songs from City of Evil.

One of the best songs Avenged have put out. So beautiful, so powerful, so epic. Needs to be higher.

Not at all convincing but it's the only tolerable song of this album.

Best lyrics of the album, the guitar it's insane too.

9 Betrayed

This is a unique song with one of the best guitar solos. It's hard to explain, but Betrayed has been on my life since the begginning of my era as starting up using Rock music in my tastes. Also this is not even my favorite Avenged Sevenfold song, that must be Chapter Four (from Waking The Fallen) but Betrayed it's still a genius song that I'd at least would select as third option between Nightmare and Chapter Four, the very best songs recorded by Avenged Sevenfold.

Save Me it's my favorite song by the band, but if I'd have to decide which one would be its succesor, I'd definitely would chose Betrayed which it's a masterpiece song with the best lyric construction in this album. And that's impressive

I've recently been listening to this song and I must say that it's timeless because it never bores me. I think it's even that good as Bat Country or Blinded In Chains

Dedicated to Dimebag Darrell? Didn't have idea until now reading the wiki of the song.

10 Burn It Down

Vote Up BURN IT DOWN it's the best whereas another list of A7X it's ranked. Always a hard chest fan of this song to death

Best and so catchy despite not having the recognition it deserves.

This song I can listen to it over and over even if isn't my favorite song

This song gotta be!

The Contenders
11 Trashed and Scattered

My life stinks, but when I listen to this song, I just get in a really good mood.

Why is this gem the last place of the list? this list doesn't makes sense.

This song is awesome
