I do post in your thread too.

/it was closed

And I guess I'm posting again, at least whenever I could find the time to.

Good write up though, bro :) You kicked my a[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE]s :(

So I guess if there is anymore Trivium dicussion, this is the place to go (for now, until someone decides to make me feel all small and such)...

The reason why the other thread was closed was because it passed the 100 idiotic arguments limit of mx.

I think they got off the topic of Trivium in the other thread... but sometimes the mods get too strict on here IMO.

All the rules and strictness go against the very nature of metal IMO

So rule 1 of the metal handbook : idiocy must run rife amongst metal fans?

obviously. i bought Ascendancy about a month ago, what an amazing album, should i get their first album as well?

Maybe try downloading some of there songs from it if you have Limewire or similar. I have heard a few songs and the singing is alot weaker but the guitar is still cool, not as good as Ascendancy but nothing poor, its worth buying. Have a look at the review of it on Sputnik.

The new Gunshot single, the riff under the Cory's solo is a Blackwater Park riff, along with that RTL rip. It's too similiar to not be called rip offs.

They are pretty good.

more than that

I prefer listening to Ember to Inferno over Ascendancy. There is something about Ascendancy that rubs me the wrong way.

I like both for their own reasons, though I definately prefer ascendancy.

The intro song and "Rain", the first two songs off Ascendency are great. I love the intro to pull harder on the strings of your matryr. Other songs need a little improvement. good band though.

You've been to metal concerts dude, wake up, metal isn't about being organized and trying to turn discussion into a debate... the bands themselves would tell you that

Just because were in a metal community doesn't mean we act like airheads. That's ridiculous.

How you pulled 'airheads' out of that comment is beyond me

So, courtesy of Wish, I've become a huge trivium fan. Ascendency is a great album. I have a n00bish question, how many guitarists do they have? I have a feeling it's too but they have an Iron Maiden sort of guitar solo sectioning for guitarists and I just had a feeling their might be three.

So no one notices those obvious rip offs?

they have 2 guitarists. I never thought of you as a fan of harsh vocals.

Anyone who rips off a Opeth riff deserves to be shot.

[QUOTE=SomeGuySomewhere]So no one notices those obvious rip offs?[/QUOTE]

Their music sounds nothing like Opeth, to say they are an obvious rip off is just false. It is possible they wrote a riff that sounds similar not realizing Opeth had this riff, none of the band members strike me as Opeth listeners

nope doesn't look like they listen to opeth.

amazing copy and paste skills you have there

and of course they dont. Im not going to insult opeth ad ive never really heard them

yeah Im good :p

I've never heard opeth either, so I wouldn't know if its a ripoff or not.

In terms of rip-off's, i think Trivium are really good for the time they've had. Although i havn't noticed these "riff rip-off's" some of their vocal melody's sound very similar to other songs even though i can't put my finger on them like the verse vocal lines in 'departure' and 'dying in your arms'.

I said [B]riff[/B] not the music. Listen to the song Blackwater Park by Opeth, the riff after the acoustic section. Compare the two riffs, you will see what I mean. Funny how no one seems to try to refute my accusation of the RTL part either.

[QUOTE=FlyingPaul_83]they have 2 guitarists. I never thought of you as a fan of harsh vocals.[/QUOTE]

Well I'm not, but I'm getting used to it. They're very good

Hey I just downloaded bolth of their albums and hey hey I swear ive heard at least 5 albums that sound exactly the same as this sh1tty generic Metalcore band! The vocals are terrilble the screams and clean ones alike.They sound so fckin weak! The bass is inaudible but if you could hear it im sure it would be ****ty. The guitar riffs are weak as fcuk and have no emotion behind them. Matts solos are sh1tty they are the standard Metalcore solos mixed with some poorly played Thrash type solos. The only high point of the albums was Coreys solos he would be better off in a band that wasn't sh1tty. The drumming wasnt anything to get wet about either.
