1. The River is my favourite GC song and I discovered A7X because of them.

2. Good Charlotte are hella hella gay

3. Idk about you. But when I saw The River. I first thought. The fuck is Matt and Syn doing on this?

4. City of Evil is one of my favorite rock albums of the 2000s. However, strange as this may be, I haven't really liked anything A7X has done before or since. Maybe I was just that right age for that stuff at the time.

5. Grew up on both of those bands. I was aware they had always been friends, but it’s Cool when you hear about the connection. When I was a kid I didn’t know that. I just know I liked good Charlotte. Got their young and hopeless album when it came out when I was 12. And then a couple years later, maybe 3, when I was 14/15, I hear bat country on the radio, and I then liked this other band avenged sevenfold. It’s cool knowing now the connection that I didn’t know back then. Also liked AFI and had their sing the sorrow album when I was around 12 too and know A7X had a connection to them too. Pretty cool.

6. That's funny cause I always thought these two bands look very similar to each other

7. Unless you were a pinkly smooth fan

8. GC was so huge during the 00s and became my life. I really thought it was them doing the screams and solo on The River and then was surprised it was A7x.

9. I remember when i heard Beast and the Harlot intro for the first time, i just literally fell in love with it even before hearing the song.
   I heard the intro and 'boom!' that is it, im in love with it

10. You guys used to be so good. Now I’d rather listen to offspring who has always sucked.

11. I already heard A7X way before I learned they’re homies with GC.

12. Good Charlotte introduced hepatitis to 15 year old girls at the Fresno County Fair.

13. When did Matt contracted Hiv?

14. Song they made together "The River" is still one of my favorites from Good Charlotte, really nice collab.

15. This is amazing to hear as an artist.

16. 2 words. The river

17. Trashed and scattered is still one of my fight songs💪🏾✊🏽👌🏾

18. I never knew this. I was a scene kid, so I already thought Avenged Sevenfold was like the biggest thing ever when City of Evil came out. Just goes to show we lived in our own bubbles, even back then. I think I first heard them on a Hopeless Records sampler that had a demo version of Eternal Rest on it before Waking the Fallen came out. I also heard Darkness Surrounding maybe at some point before that, I can't remember. I thought it was the coolest shit ever. My friends thought it sounded like Power Ranger music because people weren't used to hearing songs with shreddy guitar solos anymore.

19. Enjoying the vlad tv format 🔥🙏🏿 we need this in the rock/metal world thank you

20. Lmao I vividly remember dudes roasting city of evil saying it was trash in my gym class. Ironically years later the same dude are reposting there latest video 😂😂😂

21. It’s one of my guilty pleasures, but those albums beast & the harlot/city of evil were indeed goofy as hell. Thrice is definitely a better band overall IMO.

22. Now they are laughing at your haircut

23. Damn, I might never have heard bat country without the Maddens. It was one of those rare songs where I immediately loved it on first listen and I instantly knew this was my new favorite band.

24. I was on the Thrice and A7x forums all the time and I remember this 100% hahah.

25. Beast and The Harlot was a very corny lame ass song. They should have listened

26. City of Evil is their Master of Puppets

27. City of evil is a guitar masterpiece still one of my fav albums

28. Haircut is beyond repair

29. Even if you weren't a fan of one band or the other, gotta respect what they did for each other behind-the-scenes. God damn do I miss the early 2000's.

30. I was like, "The River was a good song, but they were #1 before that song came out." How wrong my assumption was.

31. Awesome story, that album was an instant classic when I first bought and listened

32. This doesn’t apply to Uk,Ireland and Europe though. The album won us all over on its own 🤘

33. "The River" GOAT song

34. This is why it’s important to be good to people.

35. I graduated in 2002 so that should tell you my age.
    Until last year I did not know good Charlotte had twins.

36. People were hating on Beast and the Harlot?! Skip forward to this joke of an album in 2023, and everyone loves it…. just weird.

37. Thats cool as fuck.🤘
