The Trivium Thread, Bitches

[mr black]

So I'm learning ascendancy and the end of everything.

anyone else learning Trivium stuff?

Yeah i sat down for about 2 minutes yesterday and tried to learn Ember to inferno, but after that long realised i couldn't be bothered learning that lick.

"Everyone nominate matt in the top vocalists"......

No because despite his ability with guitar, he's not a good live vocalist, im not saying he's bad, but there are 100 out there better than him. Nominate him in the top 100 song writer's thread if there ever is one.

I worry about Heafy, I've seen early footage of them live and his vocals sounded ok. However lately i've noticed his voice is already starting to degrade because of his noob approach to screaming.

[Britton]

It's really sad tha everyone is just letting him do it too

[Apathy]

Well, when I first purchased Ascendancy, I liked it...

After listening to it seven times, I want to burn it and feed the remnants to the dogs...I'm not sure why I haven't yet. Every time I try to listen to it, my rating of it goes down .5 points. It started out a 4.5, then went to a 4, then to a 3.5, then went to a 3, and now it's a 1.5.

[Shred Danson]

heh, funny, I enjoy it after each and every listen...

[Turkish]

Definately, because pretty soon: bamf agh blood going all over his microphone, horrible wretching and stabbing pain in the vocal chords.

Oh man, that was not a pretty picture.

[Benzum]

That makes no sense, you either like an album or you don't

[nowitzki]

I worry about Heafy, I've seen early footage of them live and his vocals sounded ok. However lately i've noticed his voice is already starting to degrade because of his noob approach to screaming.

I agree, when I've seen them play live there's always a great atmosphere and he's a great frontman but his voice isn't the greatest. I notice it even more when I see live videos. I guess that might be a reason why he gets the crowd to sing the chorus' of songs so often, he can't do it very well himself.

[Endless Obsession]

Yeah, seriously. He should just have a conversation with one of the old regs from the Jam Session (Merkaba-1) that man gave the perfect step by step description on screaming correctly.

Or you can watch the zen of screaming.

[Shred Danson]

That makes no sense, you either like an album or you don't

Yeah, I don't get the thought process. "Oh I liked the album the first time, but now I don't I just want to throw it away blablabla"...what the hell made you like it the first time and then hate it more and more you listened to it?

[Benzum]

Yeah, I don't get the thought process. "Oh I liked the album the first time, but now I don't I just want to throw it away blablabla"...what the hell made you like it the first time and then hate it more and more you listened to it?

Because other people started to like it I would of thought, I think it's a solid album, a real step up from their previous material, I greatly look forward to more Trivium, I met Matt once, he was funny, but I was too drunk to remember most of it :upset:

[Endless Obsession]

Yeah so "Falling to Grey" is my favorite song at the moment.

[Shred Danson]

Because other people started to like it I would of thought

yeah, that could be it...:rolleyes:

Heh, anyone seen the "Gunshot" video yet? I thought it was kinda...well..lame :lol: It would have been better if they had some kinda concept to it instead of just playing the whole time then having the fans rise up when they do the "HEY! HEY! HEY!" interlude...that just made me laugh for some reason...

[i am the robots]

Haha, yes Trevor, that video is quite the lamezorz.

Or you can watch the zen of screaming.

True enough. Merkaba's whole write-up is how I learned to though :thumb:.

[Shred Danson]

Yeah, you gotta scream through the stomach, not the throat...it hurts way less and projects the scream better :)

[i am the robots]

Screaming through the stomach isn't necessary, that is just one of the many methods, the throat is the most important part though. You use your throat to create rasp, you use your throat to protect your vocal chords. By using your throat I mean using it to funnel air to creat rasp, don't ever close your throat.

btw. Inhale screaming owns all.

[nowitzki]

yeah, that could be it...:rolleyes:

Heh, anyone seen the "Gunshot" video yet? I thought it was kinda...well..lame :lol: It would have been better if they had some kinda concept to it instead of just playing the whole time then having the fans rise up when they do the "HEY!

Yeah, I thought that was quite a dissapointing video, surely they could have thought of something better, just showing clips from live shows would have been better.

[i am the robots]

LOL LAIV SHOES R NEATO KEWL :cool: USING FAYK WUNZ R KEWLER DO!

[nowitzki]

LOL LAIV SHOES R NEATO KEWL :cool: USING FAYK WUNZ R KEWLER DO!

Huh?

[DaveTheAmazing 2.0]

Yeah so "Falling to Grey" is my favorite song at the moment.
Our avatars are pretty similar.

[i am the robots]

Huh?

Trying to seem like a stupid fool.

[Poofy 666]

ha ha i hate the people who say growling is easy.

theres this emo kid at my school who was trash talking death metal growls. I told him to try it and he sounded like a dying cow being anal-raped by a monkey (well, more than usual).

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Some death metal vocals sound pretty bad tho... especially when it is too deep. I think black dahlia murder does death vocals perfectly, not too deep, but very powerful

[Britton]

It's a tecnique

That Matt has yet to master...I hope he gets there though

[nowitzki]

I agree with you there, which is why I nominated him in the top 100 vocalists poll :cool:

Matt Heafy looks ridiculous in this video.

[mr black]

I think he needs to lose the vest, it's so ....nah no deal "crosses arms".

[shamed-angel]

Nah, it's his hair that makes me laugh... And the really craply done eyeliner.

You serious ....:confused:

[Britton]

It was funny.

So do ya'll like the FWTBT cover?

[SuddenDemise]

I love Trivium, I own every album, and I ****in love every song on them....They are one of the greatest bands out there right now....I have heard on several occasions and from many Metal Magazines that they are foretold to be the next Metallica....Which IMO is a possibility...though Metallica is still a better band by far....BTW "Dying in your Arms" is my favorite song by them....

[Britton]

Um well I'm not sure they'll be as main stream byt definatly
they are gonna be big for years to come

[Turkish]

Haha, while I agree Pillar of Serpents is an amazing song, this is just hilarious.

[Scuba_Steve]

....BTW "Dying in your Arms" is my favorite song by them....

Ur Crazy.


That is probably one of trivium's worst (if not THE worst) songs.

[Britton]

No it's not

not my favourite but still not a bad song

[Turkish]

I agree, compared to their other material, Dying in your Arms isn't the greatest. But I like it, it's really catchy.

I'd dunno when it comes to their best, Like Light to Flies, Fugue, A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation and Requiem come to mind.

[i am the robots]

I am like that with Dying In Your Arms as well, it's such a corny song, but it's just so fecking catchy.

[Suicide_Punishment]

Dont worry buddy. I think "Dying in your arms" Is One of my favs too. I recently got into them. Very good But not next Metallica Or Maiden like the Press Says. I m going to see them with Children of Bodom in December.

[Britton]

So am I!

you have to remember that Tallica were not mainstream
until Black album...so you never know what's gonna happen

[mr black]

Haha yeah its incredibly catchy one has to give it that, specially that bloody solo haha, Plus the lyrics kinda tell the story of me dumping my ex. Anyway has anyone else noticed how the riff at 3.07 of like light to flies just doesn't sound.... right with the solo and even a little bit with the drums. Just not good time melding. But then theres the awsome spanish sounding bit after, so it makes up for it.

Yea. Has anyone noticed that becoming popular?

[mr black]

Not really, im one of the only people i know thats heard of them.

[benfan]

trivium wont be the next metallica! they arnt gonna hire a **** producer sell out release crap and sue their fans.
the dying in your arms thing.....yeah its a good song, just not their best, the 'worst' song on ascendancy, my favourite is either fugue, requim, 'gunshot, or washing away me in the tides.

trivium are awesome live, i saw them in nottingham on the ascendancy tour and they owned!

[The jazz metal flum]

I saw Trivium and download, I like many other people there had never even heared of them. By the end of the day there were no more of they're t-shirts. The best part of that was when three circle pits opened up into each-other and I was in the middle of it all!!

[TheSlayer]

I love Trivium! Ascendancy is AMAZING. Anyone going to the next UK tour in March?? I AM:chug: Im going t CArdiff University to see them:thumb:

[crag]

[TheSlayer]

if they're coming to Glasgow i'll certainly try and go:)

Yeah there at Barrowlands on 6th June. http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/artists/trivium/tour.aspx

[mr black]

Why won't they come to Australia already dagnamit ! although bring on Metallica again, and possibly Machine head... if i see these 3 live i'd be a happy panda.

[Turkish]

I'd love to see Machine Head sometime, my brother went and saw then after the release of The Burning Red and said they were ace live.

[Britton]

I bet that hurt...

The Tallica mosh hurt me so bad...god it was brutal

I can't wait to mosh with Trivium

[Shadows Within]

I bet that hurt...

The Tallica mosh hurt me so bad...god it was brutal

I can't wait to mosh with Trivium
were hoping to get back stage and see cob or trivium but i very higly doubt we will :upset:

[Scuba_Steve]

were hoping to get back stage and see cob or trivium but i very higly doubt we will :upset:

just show the roadies your teets and there you go.

[Britton]

OMG that's a great idea!

[TheSlayer]

I can't wait 'till the trivium pit i'm gonna die lol! Mendeed was ***ing brutal enough!! Oh well in two weeks it's the Killswitch engage pit for me!:cool:

[deathscreamingsheep]

Mendeed kick severe ***. I wouldn't surprised if their pits were nasty anyway: aggressive and crazy scotsmen mixed with metalcore savagery...

[TheSlayer]

Their double bass made the whole Wulfrun hall shake:evil:

[Britton]

Dude I'd like to hear some live stuff

[TheSlayer]

Dude I'd like to hear some live stuff

Who live?

[Britton]

Mendeed kick severe ***. I wouldn't surprised if their pits were nasty anyway: aggressive and crazy scotsmen mixed with metalcore savagery...


Them.

So Trivium has a really really good site

[TheSlayer]

Yeah lol. I like the cursor! It's a rock on sign instead of a normal white hand.

[-The Frank]

ahhh i miss trivium by 4 days :(:(:(


/angry as ****

[bringbacktheshred]

Guys, I need an answer to a question:

What is, in your opinions, the hardest and easiest (whole) song to play (by Trivium) on guitar?

I'm just interested, I can already play a few riffs etc, these guys are good, let me tell you that.

By the way, I am not a guitar n00b.

[mr black]

hardest - ember to inferno (from what i've tried, possibly decleration)
easiest - dying in your arms... derrr

[bringbacktheshred]

Yeah, thanks. I found the 3rd riff in Like Light To Flies rather hard, fingering-wise. It seemed as though my fingers were those of a monkey's.

[Turkish]

Yeah, Dying in Your Arms is easiest by far...took me 10 whole minutes to learn how to play that.


I always had trouble with some of the fingering on A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation. And the solo on Like Light to Flies is tough too.

[Britton]

The easiest is The end of everyting

But then again I only have ascendancy

[TheSlayer]

Requim is rather easy. The solo for Gunshot to trep is just not something I can do yet.

[chops]

like light to flies is quite easy. i know how to play everything but the first solo. i haven't really tried to learn it yet.

[TheSlayer]

did anyone of you americans see Trivium on their tour with COB?

[Britton]

I'm gonna on DEC 2

[deathscreamingsheep]

^^ Sounds like it'll be a good show.

[Turkish]

Requim is rather easy. The solo for Gunshot to trep is just not something I can do yet.


Yeah, it didn't take me long to learn that song.

[hardcore_sam]

trivium bore the **** out of me now, seems like all their songs sound the same

[nowitzki]

trivium bore the **** out of me now, seems like all their songs sound the same

Don't listen to them then, there's no need to really post that in a Trivium thread.

[Britton]

trivium bore the **** out of me now, seems like all their songs sound the same


Please go away.

Yea I hope it's a awsome show. I can't wait to see alexi shred!

[Shred Danson]

trivium bore the **** out of me now, seems like all their songs sound the same

Read the first page and actually take a listen to all of their songs, kthnx

Now go along and discuss! Just remember: No spamming and no excessive flaming of the band. This is a Trivium thread for Trivium fans. We don't care if you hate them.

[TheSlayer]

ok there was some chat in the A7X thread about Matt loosing his voice? Er explain.. (sry if u answred my question about it in A7X)

[Shred Danson]

Apparently he strains his vocals live...

[TheSlayer]

but he's not losing his voice? (like shadows)

[Shred Danson]

I do not know much about it, man, this is the frst time I've heard it, though it's been brought up in here before that he strains his vocals a lot live..

[TheSlayer]

Well they better be good live when I see them in March!

[Britton]

but he's not losing his voice? (like shadows)


Do you know anything about singing?

[cacophonyz]

I hate 17+ shows.Gonna miss the Trivium,Cob, and Amarth show.I heard though that early next year Triviums going on tour again with In Flames.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

ok there was some chat in the A7X thread about Matt loosing his voice? Er explain.. (sry if u answred my question about it in A7X)


The way he strains his voice live and on the records, he will probably screw his vocals over in a few years unless he gets some sort of vocal lessons.

After the first few songs live, he can't sing the choruses to the songs any more and he just kinda yells them. That right there shows that he is not screaming properly, and his voice will be shot in no time.

[Britton]

Wait! is this tour 17+?

[Joe]

Not the whole tour, it depends on the venue. I'm seeing it at a place where I can. I'm 16

[Britton]

So am I. bt the place I want to see them is ruff at times

I hope I can go

[Joe]

The place I'm seeing them is downtown D.C. so yea...

It'll be ok though. It's not a bad neighborhood but it's a club so you never know.

[Britton]

This place is called "The White Rabbit" it's pretty darn ruff down there.

I think I know a guy who can get me backstage though!

[Joe]

This place is called "The White Rabbit" it's pretty darn ruff down there.

I think I know a guy who can get me backstage though!

That would be awesome. One of my best friends is great friends with the manager of the 9:30 Club so I might be able to get backstage too. That would be awesome, even though I'd be a little creeped out... the guys are pretty weird.

[Britton]

Not really

[Joe]

Not really

I hear the Trivium guys encourage violence at their shows. That's a little creepy. Although, it would be really awesome to go backstage. Not as many groupies as a Fall Out Boy concert or something... (that's ok, the music is so much worse at FOB)

[Britton]

I know they like circle pits

[chorbalan]

did anyone of you americans see Trivium on their tour with COB?
I am on the 22nd along with amon amarth

[Joe]

Yea I am too on Dec 8 w/ AA

[Britton]

I hope I can get in

it should be okay

[nowitzki]

Enourage violence? What are you talking about?
I've seen them twice, and they get the crowd moshing, but that happens at most metal gigs.

[Britton]

Moshin is part of the scene

Speaking of not getting to do stuff...last night I was at this party and they took
my wrist and marked them with big x's so I couldn't drink...how gay is that?

[Joe]

Enourage violence? What are you talking about?
I've seen them twice, and they get the crowd moshing, but that happens at most metal gigs.
It's just what I've heard. I haven't seen them live

[Britton]

I have a cool video...it's ruff but not violent

[nowitzki]

I have a video of Trivum at the metal Hammer awards, the pit is awesome.
The only time pits ever seem to get violent is if theres hardcore dancers about. Man I hate those guys :rolleyes:

[Britton]

LoL

I can't wait

how many times m I gonna say that?

[TrIvIuM_FrEaK189]

trivium is awesome dude! :thumb: i luv trivium! u might've noticed that by my SN but yeah they're awesome i can't get their new cd tho cuz my parents dont like parental advisory crap but yea so i just downloaded it :wave: so yea it's awesome i like light to the flies and pull harder on the strings of your martyr but yea in my opinion i think they're awesome:D :D

[Britton]

Okay cool

Welcome to MX

[mr black]

Yeah i just watched live in melkweg or something with my mate, he loved it as much as i did. Im off to see Wolfmother now, if you havn't heard of them... you should get some of their stuff :D, the 70's are back !

[TheSlayer]

trivium is awesome dude! :thumb: i luv trivium! u might've noticed that by my SN but yeah they're awesome i can't get their new cd tho cuz my parents dont like parental advisory crap but yea so i just downloaded it :wave: so yea it's awesome i like light to the flies and pull harder on the strings of your martyr but yea in my opinion i think they're awesome:D :D

Lol yeah I know what you mean man! i used to have that issue but they don't seem to bother stopping me now. (the parental advisory thing)

Any guesses for the supports for their UK tour in March?

[elbassio]

OK good I'll stick with this thread, but the other one was going OK.... these guys are incredible, anybody who doesn't like them just hasn't listened, anybody who says they are generic hasn't listened or has just heard "Like Light to Flies". Ascendancy IMO is considerably heavier than From Ember to Inferno, which, if anything, I would tag with the more generic metalcore label. They went to a far thrashier and heavier sound in Ascendancy, while simlutaneously adding even more melodic and catchy passages. If that makes sense

:p

Thats annoying. I have listened and I DON'T like. Fair enough they play fast, but so do a lot of bands now. I'd rather listen to something with a bit more subtlety to the songs. So I do. I've heard all of Ascendency, and none of it appeals to me, none of it really stands out as something spectacular.

[Epicurus]

So what other bands do you like? Just curious.

[elbassio]

Neurosis, Isis, Cannibal Corpse, Tool, Cephalic Carnage, Slayer, early Metallica, Muse, Mastodon and Lamb Of God, Behold the Arctopus to name a few.
Thing is I know some of those are lacking subtlety but at the same time the way they sound is fantastically heavy ie Cannibal Corpse. As for Metallica and Slayer, they started this kind of thing off. I know that doesn't make them automatically better, but I much prefer listening to them than Trivium and the like.

Well yeah, I listened to Metallica and Slayer way before Trivium existed. I think Slayer is a better band than Trivium of course. Metallica used to be, then they got ridiculously bad....

Cannibal Corpse is just too over the top, I can't see listening to a band that obsessed with gore, its just too weird

I see your point, but I can't actually think of a single band where its the lyrics I listen to them for. I love Cannibal Corpses aggression in their playing, what the lyrics are about don't mean a thing to me.
And you're bang on with the Slayer/Metallica thing to boot. Still not gonna agree about Trivium though. :p

That was an old quote by me, more of in my fanboy phase of Trivium, I still love these guys, but I may have exaggerated how good they were at the time... I tend to get really obsessed with bands for a couple months at a time

Now its BTBAM as my avatar indicates

:cool:

[elbassio]

Fair enough. Yeah that quote was one of the first ones, I saw it and thought "nah". Sorry, I had to rise to the bait!
Ive not heard BTBAM, though I have heard good things of them. Maybe one day Ill get off my lazy *** and listen to some!

[Britton]

Yeah i just watched live in melkweg or something with my mate, he loved it as much as i did. Im off to see Wolfmother now, if you havn't heard of them... you should get some of their stuff :D, the 70's are back !

Send me some stuff?

brittonmadcap@yahoo.com

[bringbacktheshred]

If anyone noticed, ShadowsFallen was talking in the Sandwich Bar about the CoB, Amon Amarth and Trivium show.

He said that it would be amazing for Trivium fans.

[to_Burn_The_Eye]

Im seeing trivium in March with bloodsimple and god forbid at cardiff. Anybody else going? to this looks amazing. Can't wait, 4 months yet though.

[TheSlayer]

I'm almost definetly going on the 17th of march. Cardiff uni......how bigs that place?

[Britton]

I'm seeing them in DEC I can't wait for the circle pit.


I taught my gal to do that main part to The end of everything and she was
like "OMG I can play guitar!"

It was really cool

:cool:

yeah i tend to do that sometimes too but ive been listening to btbam for about a year now and i cant get enough of them i think there the most original and awesome band to hit the metal scene trivium is still pretty good though

[Britton]

God I do that all the time. It's like I'm so in love with some band then I realize
ah they are'nt that special. But I still love Trivium...I just try not to be
too obsessed

[Shred Danson]

I'm not the kind of guy who changes his favorite bands from time to time.

[KeepTheNotesComing]

yeah ill listen to a new band and be like these guys are awesome and listen to them a whole bunch and then not listen to em as much as i tend to get tired of listening to them but thats how i know a good band cause if their good i can listen to them non stop and not get sick of hearing the same songs over and over

[Britton]

I'm not the kind of guy who changes his favorite bands from time to time.


Neither am I but I do tend to overrate bands

[Shred Danson]

Neither am I but I do tend to overrate bands

Ah, gotcha.

Anyone heard the Roadrunner United CD? Man, that King Diamond/Corey/Matt song ("In The Fire") is badass...Matt's solo was pretty off, but still good stuff...

[Britton]

No I havn't heard anything about any of that. Is there somewhere
on line I can hear some clips?

[Shred Danson]

I'm not sure, I never look around for that stuff. I'm a lazy web surfer :p

[Shadows Within]

i watched a vid for one of there songs on headbangers ball it wasnt very good but it was funny to me Matt without his guitar down to his ankles.

[Shred Danson]

Are you talking about the video for "Gunshot"? God, that's an awful video.

[Shadows Within]

Are you talking about the video for "Gunshot"? God, that's an awful video.
naw it had 3 words think first word began with a W.

[Shred Danson]

Oh, "End of The World" or something? Was it a song that sounded pretty nu-metal-ish?

[Shadows Within]

Oh, "End of The World" or something? Was it a song that sounded pretty nu-metal-ish?
it had a fat guy with an ibanez and a keyboardist and a female bassist.

[Shred Danson]

Yeah, the fat dude is the ex-guitarist of Fear Factory. Dino. The chick is Coal Chamber's ex-bass player. Yeah, that was one of the songs Matt was on for that Roadrunner compilation...it sucked :lol: .

[Shadows Within]

i knew the guitarist looked familiar he is in one of my books under fear factory.

[Britton]

Lol so this was on headbangers ball?

[Shadows Within]

Lol so this was on headbangers ball?
yeah they've been playing good stuff on there though.

[Britton]

Has Trivium (the whole band) ever played on that?

[Shred Danson]

Of course they have...first saw the video for "Like Light to The Flies" on that show...

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Yeah, the fat dude is the ex-guitarist of Fear Factory. Dino. The chick is Coal Chamber's ex-bass player. Yeah, that was one of the songs Matt was on for that Roadrunner compilation...it sucked :lol: .

yeah i hate that song, matt looks gay as hell in the video too... the one with king diamond u mentioned is incredible tho

[Tillius]

I just now started listening to Trivium. I got my friend to let me borrow their CDs. They are amazing. Great music, great vocals. Everything about them is awesome.

[Ninju]

yeah i hate that song, matt looks gay as hell in the video too... the one with king diamond u mentioned is incredible tho
Yeah.. Horrible video. It's for the song "The End"

But In The Fire (king diamond sogn) Is the best on the CD..

Annihliation by the hands of god isn't bad either.

[mr black]

'The End' is by far the worst track on that cd. It's just so... plain, and wayyy to Nu-Metal for my liking.

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Yeah I think I hate it, it sounds like a Linkin Park B-Side

[Britton]

Wow it must really suck then.

Who does Trivium remind you of the most?

[mr black]

A hybrid between Atreyu and Trash/black metal guitars...

Atreyu? Ugh.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Black metal guitar?

You have got to be shitting me...I mean wow, just wow.

[I'm Charming]

Trivium seems to be ,

Thrash/metalcore to me

[loathed]

they're pretty trash influenced...but still general metal for me

[I'm Charming]

I see some metalcore in them. With the breakdowns.

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Wow it must really suck then.

Who does Trivium remind you of the most?

They have a unique sound, but they seem to be a mix of thrash, Gothenburg, and metalcore. Some of the soloing reminds me of Megadeth

[cacophonyz]

Thats a good description.I dont think the thrash sound is as prevalent as maybe the metalcore and Gothenburg.Most of their songs arent quite what Id call 'fast' when compared to thrash bands like Kreator(old stuff, not the new Gothenburgish stuff, which I do love btw) and Death Angel, and are much more "mid-fast" pace like Gothenburg bands.And they are pretty metalcore with the occasional breakdown and clean singing parts."Dying In Your Arms" reaks of metalcore(which I also love btw).

[Britton]

I agree. I love the dualing leads

[cacophonyz]

I agree. I love the dualing leads

And the harmony soloing in Gunshot.Spectacular.

[mr black]

A hybrid between Atreyu and Trash/black metal guitars...

Sorry people, once again my idiot little brother has decided to make me look stupid by posting using my account.

Anyway i reckon they're a trash influenced Metalcore band at this point, their riff's, while not entirely metalcore, still hold all the breakdowns and call signs of a metalcore riff. The speed obviously is what gives it it's thrash feel, and the vocals are definatly metalcore at the moment. Although i saw Matt saying that they were taking out the gutteral vocals and replacing them with 90's Hetfield style vocals...
Personally i love Matt's studio voice on Ascendancy, but hey, im willing to see how they fare in the next album. Although all respect again to Matt as a guitarist but he can't sing clean vocals live.

[Britton]

Oh God I hope he gets some Hetfield vocals. That way he will be able to sing
the rest if his life

[Unnamed_One]

Yes, I see alot of potential in the band and they're not too bad, it would just be a shame for them to try and change their style too drastically due to all of the media attention they have been getting (god knows fame and money has changed alot of people). Personally I don't think that the instrumentals are bad at all, as a side note.

[nowitzki]

Oh God I hope he gets some Hetfield vocals. That way he will be able to sing
the rest if his life

You know he wants to, he acts like Hetfield so much on stage.

[Endless Obsession]

Oh God I hope he gets some Hetfield vocals. That way he will be able to sing
the rest if his life

For all you know he has gotten proper lessons on how to scream. Not all screamers will ruin their vocal chords.

Im in a metal band that has a screamer and he has watched this video called the zen of screaming and it tells you how to correctly scream.

[i am the robots]

Yeah, if you've read reviews from anybody who's see them in the past month, he hasn't lost his voice and his clean vocals have greatly improved.

[blacksorrows]

no actually i DID go to Matt's middle school, Teague middle school here in Orlando, FL. I just turned 18.

lmao thats my surname.. sorry if this is random, but that name is probably the most rare name ever here (Northern Ireland) so one of my favourite all time bands had one of their members go to a school with my name :D

[Britton]

But you can tell he isn't screaming properly. When you come away hurting like he says he does that's not good. And yes the zen of screaming is really good...maybe we should pull our money together and buy Matt a copy.

also on another note Matt is in Guitar world this month asking Kirk some questions

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Oh God I hope he gets some Hetfield vocals. That way he will be able to sing

I think Trivium would not be as good with all clean vocals, I think next album he should experiment with some death vocals instead of his usual screams. He did death vocals for Capharnaum, why not Trivium also?

[nowitzki]

I've been listening to both Trivium albums for the first time in a while today, it reminded me how good this band really are.
They are way too good to be getting all the exposure they are ;)

[Britton]

The production on Ascendancy is beautifull

[WhatAHorribleNight]

He did death vocals for Capharnaum, why not Trivium also?
I do believe that Jason Suecof executed the death vocals on Fractured

[Britton]

I do believe that Jason Suecof executed the death vocals on Fractured


Hmm you might be right...I'm not sure though.

I do want some screaming. But not from Matt the other guys can scream too
so I hope one of them steps up and takes the Screaming. That way Matt
can still "Sing"

[KittensInMicrowaves]

I do believe that Jason Suecof executed the death vocals on Fractured

Only on 2 tracks dude... Matt was lead vocals, I have the album

[Britton]

Only on 2 tracks dude... Matt was lead vocals, I have the album


Is it any good? I've only heard one song

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Is it any good? I've only heard one song

Very different than Trivium. Its technical death metal, but not of the unlistenable variety. You can tell its Matt when he is doing vocals, but the music is very different than Trivium

[Cool Beans]

Some of the soloing reminds me of Megadeth
'Cause alot of it's ripped from Marty Friedman :lol:

Don't get me wrong though, Corey Beaulieu has some sick skills.

[jaymz_is_god]

lmao thats my surname.. sorry if this is random, but that name is probably the most rare name ever here (Northern Ireland) so one of my favourite all time bands had one of their members go to a school with my name :D

Whereabouts in Northern Ireland you from? I take it you went to see Trivium in Belfast in September. How fooking awesome was that? I got to meet the whole band backstage afterwards. It was amazing. Can't wait 'til March when they come back :chug:

[WhatAHorribleNight]

Only on 2 tracks dude... Matt was lead vocals, I have the album
Matt still didn't do "death" vocals on Fractured. Even though, I enjoyed that album more than most technical death albums because the vocals were somewhat different for a change.

[Britton]

I'm gonna see them on Dec 2 (how many times am I gonna say that?)

I can't wait for the circle pit

[sonicst0rm]

i really like the album Fractured by Capharnaum, it's not too extreme and it's really listenable (like someone said already)... all around pretty awesome. trivium is cool too.

[Lieutenant Dan]

Corey Beaulieu= The Sh!t.

[KaOtIc]

to me Matts vocals on Fractured sound identical to his Trivium vocals all the low death metal stuff is Jason. Dont get me I love Capharnaum and Trivium but Matts screaming is the same in both

[Britton]

Corey Beaulieu= The Sh!t.

I love the dualling leads thatTrivium does

[jonnyward]

trivium are pretty damn special. im into punk:naughty: and a little bit of metal(metallica:D etc.) and i love trvium, they rule!

[benfan]

hahaha i ordered my ticket for march last week :D:D its gonna be awesome

[Jenny]

trivium is so good i wouldn't even bother seeing them because they might be afraid of me...because im mad....

[Jenny]

did ya....dats cool....how did ya do it......i dont want to see them though i just wanna know where u got them from:thumb:

[guitar-god-in-training]

hey babe

[killa_bees77]

lmao thats my surname.. sorry if this is random, but that name is probably the most rare name ever here (Northern Ireland) so one of my favourite all time bands had one of their members go to a school with my name :D

holy crap. I must've posted that a really long time ago, I visit this thread out of chance today and this is what I find lol What a coincidence.
Yeah I reckon Teague is a rare name, I actually havent heard too many people with that last name.

I'm planning to go see Trivium with COB on monday. It should be a good show. Those two plus Amon Amarth should be a nice break from the monotony of school work/not going to shows for 3 months. Hopefully I can actually make it to the concert. Missing the Opeth show in tampa after already getting my ticket was a huge blow to my morale so I'm desperate for a good show.

I hope Matt's screaming improves on the next album because thats what really ruins Trivium for me. Like i stated a long time ago, his screaming is too monotonous and metal-core-ish, it would be nice if he added more raspy-ness to it ala Wintersun. Also, he needs to stop autotuning his singing voice so heavily, it really sounds annoying. I've seen live vids/live shows and he doesnt sing ANY where near as good as on the cd, which should say something. Oh well, at least hes pretty good at guitar and the rest of the band is pretty kick a$$ (especially Corey).:thumb:

[Britton]

I'm seeing them tonight. I hope to god I can get backstage1 I know I guy
who is working there tonight.


I can't wait I love Trivium. and I think that Laiho is one of the special guitar players of my generation so it's gonna be cool seeing him play

[Shred Danson]

Tell me how Amon Amarth does, too, man!

[Britton]

What does matt do?

I've never even listened to amon amarth....so t should be cool

The only camra I have is on my phone....so if I do by chance get backstage

He just eggs the crowd on to beat the crap out of each other instead of enjoying the music, that's all.

And you will probably love Amon Amarth, if you're into melodic death/viking metal, you'll dig 'em (download the song "Death In Fire".). I love them. It really is a great tour...

[theboychronicle]

just to say Amon Amarth kick ***!!!!

Yea they did

Hey ya'll check my Trivium concert review/bump

[Fong249]

I just saw Trivium with Amon Amarth and COB. Since it was Dimebags Death Anniversary, they played with Dime ML's, Possibly used by Dime himself (one was confed flag). Trivium ****ing rocked. They know how to get the crowd going. And then after, i talked to matt and paolo for a brief time on the second floor of the place where they played. Their stage presence > cob's + amon amarths.

lucky i wish i saw them

Whats everyones fav song?
Mine would be there entire new album ACENDANCY but the ones that caught my eye were PHOTSOYM, AGTTHOT, TEOE, LLTTF, Acendancy, and rain

[mr black]

Wow this threads moved about 1 post per week give or take ! :eek:. My favourite tracks would be like light to the flies, from ember to inferno, gunshot, and Rain. Does anyone think that Matt will ditch the whole emo hair doo and ear stretchers, and more importantly get some singing lessons and stop autotuning his voice in the studio ? If he claims to be ditching the screaming on the next record (what he's actually good at, even if he does it wrong) I fail to see how they will be good live if he's always using his quite honestly horrible clean vocals...?

This is not to bash Trivium, i think they are awsome, especially at the age they are. Im only looking to see if people think they can improve like i think they can... :chug:

[Britton]

Why do people keep going back to his hair? what the hell does it matter?

Those are all great songs. He should get some singing lessons. Have you all heard paulo sing?

I actually like his "Clean Vocals" not that they are all that clean...but it sounds cool. I think I like just about every single song on ascendancy

Look how good Trivium is right now....can you imagine when they are n theri prime?

[mr black]

Yeah they will definatly improve, i just worry about Matt's voice, because live... it sucks... and if he's going to do 100 shows a year closing his throat to scream... we'll he's going to end up like his idol Jesse Leach (killswitch) who needed to leave because he destroyed his voice.

[.:Thrasher:.]

WTF

Matt has an amazing voice on clean and is great on his screams:eek:

To me he doesent look emo, he looks metal but i just hope he loses the earings and i dont mind if he grows his hair(suits him short)\m/

[emo is so cool]

is trivium actually good? are they metal? or hardcore? cuz i hate hardcore/metalcore with a passion.

[Britton]

Hence the your user name?...

yea...I'm intrested to see hhow Matt holds up over the years...I hope it all works out fine for him. I really enjoyd talking to him

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Trivium has a song on MySpace that isn't on either of their albums, its pretty good

[Hourglass]

Is anyone going to trivium in dublin, March third? were any of you at the Ireland concert when they did the HUGE mosh circle?

[4yearpro?]

i saw them live on the last day of their tour with cob and amon amarth
they played well live but im not a big fan of heafy's vocals

[King_Of_Terrors]

The guy at the guitar store today knows Trivium. They come in and watch his band play sometimes.

[bigpossum93]

who really cares about what matt looks like, hes a damn good guitarist, one of my fav vocalists, and an unbelievable song writer, the stuff he churned out on the roadrunner united album is amazing. true, he could destroy his voice but along with screaming he is a damn good singer. i went out and bought ascendency about a month after it hit stores, im on my 5th copy cause i listen to it so much the wear and tear destroy it, i have a copy next to every cd player in my house too. i just read an article on how much metallica was an influence on the band and now i always laugh during gunshot to the head of trepadation during the chant cause it reminds me of creeping death. WHATS YOUR FAVORITE SONG ON BOTH ALBUMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????

[mr black]

Sorry but he's not a good singer... an insane guitarist, a brilliant song writer and a good screamer (wether he does it wrong or not).

i've watched him on many live occasions and his clean vocals are bloody terrible. Don't be so ignorant in assuming him to be a good singer, with autotuning available to artists these days anyone can sound like freddie mercury.

My favourite song on the cd is 'Like light to the flies' or 'Rain', and like a lot of the clean chorus's 'like light to the flies' is sickeningly auto tuned. It's especially noticable in the original version or the song.

[-The Frank]

Sup trivium thread, i just boought asendancy, such a great album.



NP:Rain

[Hourglass]

WHATS YOUR FAVORITE SONG ON BOTH ALBUMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????

Pull harder... (or AGTTHOT)
If I could collapse the masses

[Rattlehead]

Not bothered bout autotuning. sounds good on the studio songs.:thumb:

F**in insane guitarist and songwriter as has alredy been said

Drummer is fukkin insanely good

I dont know much about exactly how one should scream, but im sure if experts say hes fu*kin up his voice then i agree, he should rectify that.

I hate emo's with a fuk*in passion too, for the emo fuk*a who dissed metal. and i'm not keen on heafy's hair not that it's relevant to his crazily gr8 musique.

Going to see Trivvers at the Lemon Grove in Exeter in March as it sez on the back of my hoody:thumb:

[mr black]

^ Nice that should be awsome, hope they come to Australia at some point. Yeah Trav's a fairly good drummer isn't he, i heard he's only 19 or 20 which is scary because that guys got some talent. Although me and my drummer reckon he looks hilarious playing drums because his posture is just to ... good haha, can't have a straight back and play thrash beats :smash:

[xxGumbyxx]

I just saw this band called Silent Civilian at the Whiskey in Hollywood, CA. The lead singer looked exactly like a chunkier version of Matt Heafy. He even did some of the same facial expressions.

[Britton]

Wow a Matt Heafy impersonater...you all have everything in Cali huh?

I want my band to do a Trivium cover...but I'm not sure if I can handle Guitar
and Vocals...

anyone else tried?

[mr black]

Yeah i tried like light to the flies, my mind basically said wtf once i started trying to sing and do the verse riff, so hard to keep those 2 timings together, baffeles me how he does it.

Dying in your arm's would be really easy though, and if you have a good back up singer you'd both have a lot of fun with it :thumb:

[benfan]

My band play pull harder on the strings of your martyr and like light to the flies, the first time i played and sang/screamed pull harder i nearly fainted, you really need to concentrate on breathing, more than i realised

[deathscreamingsheep]

I found it hard to coordinate the muting on my first attempt at Light to Flies when doing vocals at the same time. But with practice it's fine. Luckily with the screaming you at least have very little to worry about going out of tune.

[mr black]

^ wow i feel so mediocre listening to you guys that can play like light to flies and scream it at the same time :chug:

[Epicurus]

^ wow i feel so mediocre listening to you guys that can play like light to flies and scream it at the same time :chug:

[Britton]

Okay. My band wants soething hard and fast...so I was like Trivium! they were like no way. So I've been working some stuff so we can get up to that level.

amen.
i would really like to see them as well

[Hodgetts]

Well, i remember last year they were saying that there keen to come to Australia and they want to try and get over here by the end of year or early 2006. I guess there just too busy. They should be here some time this year though. Probably to tour for the new album that there going to release. Oh yeah, and where did u hear that Heafy's ditching the screaming? That would suck. That would probably mean they will just become more commercial and emo and just plain gay.

[nowitzki]

Why Trivium, why? Of all the songs on Ascendency you have to pick by far the worst song for your next single.
I guess Dying In Your Arms is probably going to appeal to all the emo kids out there so I can understand why they're doing it I suppose.
Oh yeah, and where did u hear that Heafy's ditching the screaming? That would suck. That would probably mean they will just become more commercial and emo and just plain gay.
I don't think so actually, I'm sure I read in an interview that the new album will be more influenced by bands such as Dream Theater.

[MRDuCran]

I don't know if this has been discussed, but have any of you seen the new YOung Guitar with these guys in it?
I only bought if for Alexi but I wasn't impressed by anything off the DVD.
Alexi wasn't playing to great, neither were Trivium and that Malmsteen wannabe had bad tone and was rather annoying with the Amin shred crap.

[shark_biscuit]

...trivium is awesome for their age...i recon they'll definatley go far...i love the technicality of their songs ...and their guitar solo's are orgasmic :naughty: ...not that i'm a guitarist or anything(drummer actually)... travis is definatley one of my top 5 drummers our bands just started learning 'Like Light To Flies' like some of the others on this thread...it's a working progress but its an :thumb: song to jam

[i am the robots]

I am actually looking forward to the new album, it should be good... musically, as I understand, Matt Heafy can't sing... or scream for that matter... in all seriousness he should drop his egomania and they should find a singer that doesn't suck, then they could have good music and vocals, but it's not very productive to complain about impossibilities such as Matt Heafy no longer being an egomaniac.

[The Cynic]

^ He's not that bad but I agree. They should get a better singer for the new album.

[Britton]

Wow so I just heard dying in your arms is the next single....wow my least favorite track. Oh well.

It should do well. My radio station never plays Trivium :(

Worst/poppiest song on the whole album

[Stoo]

So I just downloaded some of Triviums songs. And I have to say...

Thumbs up....


...Until that twat starts singing. He does not have the voice for that screaming, kind of like most other bands in that genre. If he had a deeper voice it would sound more agressive, therefore in this case, better. Kind of like a Phil Anselmo voice.

[Steve DeBerg]

Worst/poppiest song on the whole album

Indeed. The entire album kills untill that track, then the mood just drops right off.

They have alot of potential. Matt Heafy should just play rymthm guitar and stop singing though. His death vocals and clear vocals are both below average.

That solo in gunshot to the head...... Nothing better than a dualing solo.

[mr black]

Yeah i've said it once and i've said it again auto-tuning vocals in metal = nononononononoooooo. They should get Howard Jones to sing for them, now that guy can sing !

There is nothing better then dualing solo's

ain't that the truth
