| abstract | - Pinkly Smooth is the Goblin Metal/ Avant-garde metal side project of Avenged Sevenfold drummer The Rev, in which he sings and plays drums. The band was formed in the summer of 2001 in Huntington Beach, California, with The Rev (under the name Rat Head) as singer, fellow Avenged Sevenfold guitarist Synyster Gates as guitarist and Ballistico members: Buck Silverspur (under the name El Diablo) on bass and D-Rock (under the name Super Loop) on drums. Since then, the band has released only one album, Unfortunate Snort on Bucktan Records, which features a crossover sound of mostly punk, metalcore and avant-garde metal. Former Avenged Sevenfold bassist Justin Meacham was also featured on keyboards and piano on the album, but left the band soon after. Although the band is on hiatus ever since the release of the album and had never reunited since then, members have hinted on possible works of the band in the future.
