Let's break down Avenged Sevenfold's magnum opus, "Unholy Confessions", and analyze the song from a music theory perspective. Some of the music theory concepts we find are the natural minor scale/Aeolian mode, the harmonic minor scale, the chromatic scale, and even the melodic minor scale. In addition, we find the use of pedal point, melody, harmony, and more advanced guitar techniques, such as pinch harmonics. I strongly believe that this song pioneered metalcore and shaped the subgenre as we know it today. Do you agree, or is there another more influential force that contributed to metalcore? And is there a better guitar duo than Synyster Gates and Zacky Vengeance?
