"Chapter Four" is a song by American heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold. The song was released as a double A-side single with "Eternal Rest" from their second album, Waking the Fallen, where it also appears as track three.
The lyrics of "Chapter Four" are about the story of Cain and Abel.[4] An early demo of the song was featured on the reissue of Waking the Fallen.[5]
In 2014, the band released a music video for "Chapter Four" to promote the release of "Waking The Fallen: Resurrected".[6] The video features clips of the band playing live, shot entirely in black and white.[7] Footage from the same show was also used to film a music video for Unholy Confessions a decade prior.[8] The video was directed by Rafa Alcantara.[9]
"Chapter Four" is regarded as one of the best songs from the band's early days.[10] In 2020, Louder Sound and Kerrang ranked the song at number thirteen and number fifteen, respectively, on their lists of the 20 greatest Avenged Sevenfold songs.[11][12]
