"Revolution starts at home: preferably in the bathroom mirror." -- I dont know where. "I've always loved expressing any creativity I possess. Whether it's been working through music, shirt designs, tattoos, A7X artwork, or even the outfits I wear on stage. I wanted to share with everyone something I learned in the summer of 6661. When people doubt your abilities, the greatest joy on earth is making them eat their words. In school, I was voted most likely to fail along with my best friends... Now look at us. Those who take the biggest risks in life have the greatest rewards, and anyone too scared to take those risks look down on those who do. So now I offer you all a clothing line with no rules or regrets. I hope you enjoy...

Shadows "I think you gotta have balls to be an Avenged fan sometimes. A lot of our fans get hated on just as much as us. To me Avenged fans aren't just fans of a band, they are fans of everything that surrounds it, like a lifestyle. We live it, you live it. You go to the shows and you can feel it. It's a great experience and people that aren't involved will never understand. So they can stand on the sidelines and talk, but we will just continue to do what makes us all happy." -- M.

Like a soul in action From the kingdom Of the white on white idols Here dreaming in new gowns. You'll hear the riddle of prayers calling In the lurking lipstick scenes And a young man held to a flexible God And pretty girls who scream. The lost and found Will lay with their still love And lift your echoing heart In a private paradise of dreams And an air that falls apart. -- Bauhaus 1998 |
