[edit] Music Video
"Unholy Confessions" was released as a single/music video. In the video, Avenged Sevenfold is pictured performing in concert. When the band signed to Warner Bros. in 2004, the label urged them to make the video for this song to create buzz for 2005's City of Evil[citation needed].
The video shows the band playing live with dubbed music. Allura[1]drummer and vocalist Chris Bartholomew can be seen singing the lines "I know it's hard to fall," into the microphone as the crowd holds him up.
