they went to the high school that i go to now, and i saw them at battle of the bands when i was still in middle school, its hard to belive they are as big as they are.

[QUOTE=Hale_of_Gunfire]I think trivium are a cool band to listen to for awile but then they start getting boring, i guess you could say I like them in small doses.[/QUOTE]

yeah I go through phases with them, I was completely obsessed for like a month when I made this name.

But recently ive been listening to a lot of classic metallica and bodom.

actually im surprised its not at all a big deal. nobody that i've mentioned it to knows who they are. my school is full of preppy kids who listen to pop gayness.

edit: plus they graduated like 4 years ago

do you know them personaly

[QUOTE=FreddieVanHalen]do you know them personaly[/QUOTE]

nah, i was in 8th grade in middle school and i think they were seniors when i saw them at battle of the bands, i never met any of them.

this local band radio here in miami supposedly got signed to atlantic but they weren't special at the time. then i saw them at this years battle of the bands at my school and they were more proffesional and played their instruments better.

is that the samw thing wtith trivum (not the atlantic part though)

i used to jam with the singer/guitarist in 8th grade and he picked up some of my technique and got better than me

i dont think so, i dont think they were signed to anything when they played, but theye were prtty proffesional.

after i saw them, i hadnt heard anything at all about them till about 2 years later, when i started listening to metal, my friend showed me a band, trivium, and i was like "those kids went to our school didnt they?" and hes like yah. and i found out they were signed to a record company with an album out, later to release another

have you gone to a show since

[QUOTE=FreddieVanHalen]have you gone to a show since[/QUOTE]

no, but they are coming to tampa soon with COB, if i feel like driving that far i guess ill go see them.

you're in orlando right? cause thats where trivium started

if you are then do you ever go to george's music

yes, more specifically altamonte springs florida, 15 min north of orlando, lake brantley high school

never heard of george's music

never mind, what instrument do you play

i just started playing guitar in july

know any trivium songs

nah, their not my favorite band i listen to mostly death metal

i just went from classic rock to metal and trivium blew me away. but i still listen to zeppelin

[QUOTE=FreddieVanHalen]i just went from classic rock to metal and trivium blew me away. but i still listen to zeppelin[/QUOTE]

thats a big switch

I did classic rock>metallica for 5 years>Trivium

metallica got old, and listening to band heavily influenced by them was really cool

I ordered Ember to the Inferno from interpunk two thursdays ago, and it's still not here....


Discuss what I'm missing out on

I would love to see these guys live, does anyone have the faintest clue of when they will find their way to Australia ?

Also im watching Ember to inferno live, and whoa could Matt wear his guitar any higher !, in all the other clips i've got he has it between his legs, in this (obviously very early in the career) He has it at chest height.

i like trivium. nuff said

"""We are pretty much sick of people labeling us a "metalcore" band, because..we dont like metalcore. We dont do breakdowns and anything like that, and we just want to be a metalband.

corey on the new record

oh my god, this is going to be so amazing

wooh, i saw trivium a week ago.Kick as.s show

yeah same here.

I love ...And Justice For All, so if this new album is anything like it, then it should kick ***.

God... haha they better deliver their talking this album up something terrible, although from what we've seen so early in a career could anyone doubt them.

This makes me very excited, although hopefully Trivium aren't a band who get loads of success on their breakthrough album, then take years before they release another record, that won't live up to the hype.

Being more like Dream Theater is got to be a good thing

I would be a big fan of this band if the cookie monster vocals weren't there :thumb:

Rawwwrrr rraaawwwwrrrr rrrrraaaawwwwrrr...

..just dont do it for me

Musically and techincally: top notch.

They have definate poitential

Smart guy :D

never heard a metal band before???

Matt's vocals are awesome I think, I think he has a great screaming/singing voice.

hey id really appreciate it if anyone has the tab for the solo in fugue?
my bands covering and i cant find it anywhere.thanks if anyone has it

I thought the vocals were the weakest part of the band...they aren't really anything special.

He actually sings, though, which is a pretty rare thing in popular American metal...his singing voice is decent.

However, Trivium has now been officially bastardized by somebody I know, who I will refer to as Top 40.

Apparently, he has discovered this band, which means he will be like "OMG Trivium are liek soooo am4zing!" Which will completely destroy any shred of liking I had for this band.

So you can all say thank you to him for finding this band.

"Finding" lol, who is this? Although they've been bastardized it doesn't make their music any worse.

Does anyone find the song Dying In Your Arms completely out of place? It sounds very emo (except the guitar is amazing) and the rest if very heavy metal
