An autopsy was pending today on the body of 28-year-old Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan, the drummer for the hard rock band Avenged Sevenfold, following his sudden death.
Sullivan was found unresponsive Monday at his Huntington Beach home, authorities said. “It appeared to be natural causes,” said Lt. John Domingo of the Huntington Beach Police Department. “It’s a coroner’s case.”
“The decedent is a 28-year-old male discovered unresponsive inside of his residence,” the Coroner’s Department stated on its Web site. It said that an “investigation is ongoing.”
Avenged Sevenfold issued a statement on its Web site Monday. “It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we tell you of the passing today of Jimmy `The Rev’ Sullivan,” the statement said. “Jimmy was not only one of the world’s best drummers, but more importantly he was our best friend and brother. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmy’s family and we hope you will respect their privacy during this difficult time.”
Sullivan is survived by his wife, Leana MacFadden. By this morning, a Facebook page for Avenged Sevenfold had received almost 5,000 comments in response to a posting about Sullivan’s death.
The five-man group has put out four albums and won Best New Artist at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2006. The group’s self-titled fourth album hit No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart in 2007.
According to a message posted by Zacky Vengeance on the band’s MySpace page, the group was hard a work on a fifth album.
I have something to say. Kanye West is a piece of shit. I don’t care much for what passes for MTV today. They are just another BET to me. I hope someone punches that dude in the fucking mouth, I sure would like to. This dude ruined a perfect night for a 19 yr old girl who may never get to win another award like that. This dude is nothing but a piece of dog shit. I guess he couldn’t handle a white girl winning over his favorite black girl. I see him as being racist as hell. I have never liked him and know the whole world saw what a little thug he was. You might have money boy, but that definitely doesn’t make you a man. I hope you feel real good about yourself. I bet you wouldnt do that to a man, cuz your ass would probably got broke.
“Hello… I want to play a game.” Those are the immortal words Saw’s sadistic purveyor of self-imposed twisted justice Jigsaw utters to his victims as they come to. And if you hear those words you’re soon to find yourself in a world of hurt. Back for the sixth installment of the Saw horror series this Halloween (in theaters October 23), moviegoers will once again cringe in their seats as blood, guts and body parts are up for grabs.
In Saw VI, Special Agent Strahm is dead, and Detective Hoffman has emerged as the unchallenged successor to Jigsaw’s legacy. However, when the FBI draws closer to Hoffman, he is forced to set a game into motion, and Jigsaw’s grand scheme is finally understood.
What started out as a “little” indie horror movie back in 2004 has turned into a juggernaut go-for-the-throat franchise so gruesome you want to turn away, yet so compelling you just can’t. And fittingly enough, the movie soundtracks have always been amicable counterparts assaulting the senses in a fashion that would make Jigsaw proud.
Trustkill Records’ Josh Grabelle said, “We are stoked about this soundtrack as we’ve managed to place songs from some of the most exciting hard rock and metal bands in the scene on this one. We are all huge fans of the Saw movies and are ready to knock this one out of the park!”
Artists’ Addiction Soundtracks’ Jonathan Platt says of the Saw VI Soundtrack: “We feel that we have put together a collection of songs that really mirrors the chaos onscreen. All of our acts are big fans of the Saw series and were excited to be a part of the soundtrack and I think that energy really comes across.”

We have lost our website again. This time the company who we were renting server space closed up with out any notice and we lost the site along with our 50+ other websites as well as our customer websites. So we will have to start all over again. Don’t worry we will have a new look but we will be back in a few days. I would highly recommend staying away from XPAW Media aka MyPowerHost.com they will stay in business a few months, get their money and then rip you off.
