Ok seriously, stop hating on Avenged Sevenfold. They were voted either 4th or 5th (can't remember) in a list of the greatest metal bands of all time. They are very skilled musicians and make awesome music. So stop hating them "just because its cool. " Try listening to "Afterlife" and "Nightmare" before you make an opinion.

Really kiddies? If I could put all these so called bands at the top I would. This was called hair metal in the 80's and people are to dumb to notice that the same thing is happening again. So go buy it children you obviously don't even know what metal is!

Seriously, these guys are the biggest wankers.

Also, please add The Devil Wears Prada to the list. They have been seriously underrated when it comes to the worst bands of all time. They should at least be in the top 10.

But yes, Avenged Sevenfold are terrible.

This is bull I think they sould be number one on the best bands of 2013 they are in my opinion better than mitallica

The group formed in 2006, with former members including Jayy Von Monroe (2009–2016) and Garrett Ecstasy (2009), all of whom provided vocals for the project... read more

They are utterly abysmal. They fail as both a band and as role models for the younger generations. How they are not on this list when Bullet For My Valentine are voted 4th is beyond my ability to understand.

There's nothing metal about them!

I just hope it's there blood.

3 Black Veil Brides Black Veil Brides is an American rock band currently consisting of Andy Biersack (vocals), Jinxx (guitar), Jake Pitts (guitar), Christian Coma (drums) and Ashley Purdy (bass), that formed in 2006 in Ohio. In the beginning of their career, the band was heavily associated with the emo subculture, and had strong metalcore, screamo and alternative influences, however got more metal oriented over the years. Their songs usually carry a message of acceptance, believing in yourself and being individual and different. Among their most well known songs are "Knives and Pens", "Rebel Love Song", "In the End" and "Fallen Angels".

Black veil brides is awesome

The worst band ever

I used to love the first 3 albums of theirsm but the last one just makes me cry. Trivium is still AWESOME! Avenged Sevenfold - AWESOME! They shouldn't be in this list! Lame! Stupid! It's the same as to put Metallica or Van Canto on this list! Stupid and pointless! I'm sure Bieber's fans just chose the most famous bands and put them here. Lame.

After their new album you can't even call the band metal anymore.

So sad and boring.

5 Asking Alexandria Asking Alexandria are an English metalcore band from York, North Yorkshire formed initially in 2008 by lead guitarist Ben Bruce along with former lead singer Danny Worsnop, bassist Joe Lancaster, keyboardist and synth player Ryan Binns, and current members drummer James Cassells and rhythm guitarist Cameron Liddell.

9 Cradle of Filth Cradle of Filth are a British extreme metal band that formed in Suffolk in 1991. The band's musical style evolved from black metal to a cleaner and more "produced" amalgam of gothic metal, symphonic black metal and other extreme metal styles.

Just as I expected. A close-minded dick desides to put decent bands like Trivium and Avenged Sevenfold on this pathetic excuse of a list.

A poor excuse for music.

This clown has slowly been turning the name Queensryche into a laughing stock for over a decade now. Thank god that the original members finally came to their senses and fired his ass. Todd La Torre is a savior, he is doing an amazing job filling Tate's shoes.
