M Shadows accepted the awards for Best Metal and Best Album on behalf of Avenged Sevenfold at the OC Music Awards. The OC Register posted an article about the award show and according to them, M Shadows was 'genuinely flattered' with the win.
True, Avenged Sevenfold went home with two OC Music Awards at Saturday's 10th annual ceremony, which filled City National Grove of Anaheim and attracted more media for red-carpet arrivals than ever before. (Were they hoping for a Gwen sighting?) The Huntington Beach-based band won for best metal, naturally, and also claimed the trophy for best album, for the group's chart-topping release Nightmare, its first work since the passing of drummer James "The Rev" Sullivan.
By comparison, A7X's deserved wins seemed completely obvious: of course M. Shadows and his absent gang would win best metal. Landing best album is also entirely logical, when you consider that last year's selection, Thrice's Beggars, was the biggest-selling and most widely acclaimed of any disc to tumble out of O.C. in its eligibility period ... just as Avenged's Nightmare was in 2010.
Regardless, Shadows seemed genuinely flattered and even a little humbled by the honor, acknowledging local forebears (the Vandals, Death by Stereo, especially Social Distortion, "the best band to come out of Orange County, hands down") each time he got to the mic.
