"Burn It Down" is a single by Avenged Sevenfold from their third studio album City of Evil. The record was released on June 12, 2005 via Warner Bros.[1]
Overview
As opposed to their other released videos from City of Evil, such as "Bat Country" which features a performance as well as a scenario running with the song, "Burn It Down" simply features the band's live performance of the song. However, the audio itself is not live but the album track synced over the live video with the exceptions of the first and last few seconds. The song features a mix of guitar technique highlighted by the dueling arpeggios at the beginning of the song and the famous heavy metal technique, the gallop, in the first verse. The song is lyrically taking perspective from someone who has been betrayed time and time again, and will take no more ("Don't need you fuck camaraderie") and vows revenge ("Hatred fuels my blood"). The song "Beast and the Harlot", which is the previous song on the album, segues into Burn it Down. It is the shortest song on the album and is the only one under 5 minutes in total length.
"Burn It Down" was also featured in the Saw III soundtrack.
