Bat Country

"Bat Country" is a track by American heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold, featured on their self-titled fourth studio album released on October 30, 2007, through Warner Bros. and Hopeless Records. The album was the band's first self-produced effort, giving it a distinctly raw and ambitious sound. For electric guitarists, the song offers a rewarding challenge with its blend of heavy riffing, melodic lead work, and the dual-guitar interplay that defines Avenged Sevenfold's signature style.

  • The self-titled album was Avenged Sevenfold's first fully self-produced record, giving guitarists Synyster Gates and Zacky Vengeance more creative control.
  • The song runs approximately 5 minutes 11 seconds, giving guitarists plenty of material to work through across its dynamic sections.
  • The album was delayed two weeks from its original October 16, 2007 release date to allow more time for completion.

Zacky Vengeance pairs the JCM800 with his Schecter for a grittier, more classic crunch on rhythm duties, cutting through the mix with natural breakup without relying solely on high-gain saturation.

Synyster Gates uses this wah to add expressive dynamics to his lead passages, allowing him to shape the midrange of his high-output bridge pickup for singing, vocal-like solo tones.

The ISP Decimator tames the high-gain hum inherent to Avenged Sevenfold's aggressive drop-tuned rhythms and sustain-heavy leads, keeping the signal clean without sacrificing the thick distortion tone.

Synyster Gates deploys this analog delay to add ambience and spaciousness to his solos, complementing his Sustainiac-driven feedback passages with lush, tape-like modulation for dynamic lead work.
