Video Showdown #2: Avenged Sevenfold vs. Overkill
Today’s Video Showdown puts the Metal band Overkill against Avenged Sevenfold.
It seems that there is some logo infringement between the bands Overkill, and Avenged Sevenfold. Overkill has been using the flying bat skull logo since their 1988 release, Under the Influence.
Meanwhile, the flying bat skull started showing up on Avenged Sevenfold covers in 2003, with the A7X’s release, Waking the Fallen.

haahaha! Such a fucking stupid fight. As if a skull with bat wings was something soooo original. Stop saying OVERKILL FUKIN’ RAPES A7X In The Ass and shit! I like metal, and I like both bands and they’re not comparable at all. And I don’t think the bands care about this shit. It’s sad that so many metalheads fight over shit like this… or things like Kreator is so much better than Bieber… c’mon, metal is old, you’re old, grow up!
You guys need to fucking stop arguing over this stupid shit. You can’t fucking compare these bands cause their in different genres. Their logo is similar but not the same. A7X most likly never heard of Overkill when the deathbat was created. So therefore they didn’t steal shit.
avenged sevenfold are fucking poser faggots and same goes to whoever listen to there crap music, overkill used the logo first therefore its there logo, and why even try and compare the bands?! 1 is a thrash band(overkill) and the other is a shitty fagcore band(avengened faggotfold)
This is a joke. Avenged Sevenfold is a joke. OVERKILL’s musicianship blows Avenged’s garbage playing/singing away.
Avenged Sevenfold all the way baby!!
lmfao… everyone fghts over this shit, but the bands themselfs couldnt seem to care less…
Bottom line, Shut the fuck up about whos better and just listen to the awsome ass music..
Who ever got the bat thing first, Avenged Sevenfold is the best. and it always will be the best.
Overkill. Hands down.
Fuck those little bitches. They aren’t original, and their music just isn’t OVERKILL.
Fuck them in the ear
This isn’t even an argument…OVERKILL hands down…people are saying A7x is the better band cause they sell out shows and sell albums…so did britney spears so do terrible bands like nickleback…a7x get played on the radio…they are posers trying to live like real metal gods…they’re not! Just like the RUB’s that buy a new harley/chopper/bobber and all the new leathers then hit the road since now they’re a biker…get fuckin real…a7x is one of metal’s HOG chapters…Overkill was rockin the batwing skull and ruling the stage when the a7x crew was still shitting their pampers
this isnt opinion this is fact all of a7x , not including johnny christ the bassist were born in eighty-one, so they wouldve been about six when the album came out so at that point they wouldnt be shitting their pants, whoever the great Valient K is who thinks they know a damn thing about avenged sevenfold dont talk unless you know, thank you.
Okay, so they were 6. That still proves that Overkill came before and that avenged sevenfold stole their logo. I don’t really care, but just pointing that out.
a7x would likely still be shitting their pants at age 6.
The batwinged skull was on several Overkill album covers, long before A7X ever existed.
