Trivium is an American Metalcore band. They are know for their focus on melody and vocals. A similar artist would be Bullet for My Valentine (new stuff). Ember to Inferno- [img]http://nailedreaper.3dn.ru/200/226.jpg[/img] Trivium's first official album. This album got general positive feedback. The vocals of Matt Heafy were very rough and he screamed a lot. Ascendancy- [img]http://i529.photobucket.com/albums/dd331/stonacho/Trivium_-_Ascendancy_Special_Editio.jpg[/img] Second studio release of Trivium. This album basically locked in Trivium's sound. This is considered sometimes to be Trivium's first real album. The Crusade- [img]http://plixid.com/uploads/posts/2008-11/1226493668_the-crusade-album.jpg[/img] The third album of Trivium. This album received a lot of bad feedback. The yelling vocals of Heafy were gone. Many people said it was a copy of Metallica. Others saw it as a message saying they are the new Metallica. Shogun- [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61B9q1BuRvL._SS500_.jpg[/img] this 2008 album is considered to be the best Trivium album yet. The vocals were restored. They decided to mix the vocal styles of Ascendancy and The Crusade. The guitar work is very good. This album was considered to be one of the best albums of 2008.

Great band. Great new album. A lot of their stuff is really good. ( BFMV is NOTHING like the new album of trivium.)
Personally I really liked the third album, but that's probably because shouty metal isn't my thing.
[QUOTE=Thug319;13675833]Great band. Great new album. A lot of their stuff is really good. ( BFMV is NOTHING like the new album of trivium.)[/QUOTE] No I meant the new album of Bullet for My Valentine.
The new album of Bullet, maybe some references in there but Bullet went [b]too[/b] mainstream in that album. The new album of Trivium isn't mainstream but I guess it has some things the same. If thats what you mean.
Ascendancy was the best album of the first three. Shogun is amazing. It's just so damn good!
OP, bad idea putting "DISCUSS" at end of your post. Anyways you should put up some vids.
My favorite is The Crusade, though I've only heard one song on Shogun so far. I really like these guys.
I also like The Crusade over the other albums. I guess the fact that the screaming is minimal and I can understand what he is saying leans me toward that album.

The Crusade is awesome. Shogun is ok, the screaming is a real put off though. The guys who complained about them sounding like Metallica need new ears because The Crusade is barely similar to Master of Puppets, and Metallica only made one album that sounds like Master of Puppets anyway.
I love Trivium. I missed the concert in MN I think the correct genre is Melodic metalcore though. Along with BfmV and Killswitch Engage and In Flames. Although In Flames is alot heavier.
First Album- Great and original Second Album- By far their best album, good mix of screaming with riffs Third Album- Metallica rip-off to be honest Fourth Album- Good come back after failing hard with their third album, but still not as good as Ascendancy Also, I'm glad that unlike most bands they decided to stop screaming in a lot of their songs realizing that, that is not who they are.
[QUOTE=Evilan;13697974]Also, I'm glad that unlike most bands they decided to stop screaming in a lot of their songs realizing that, that is not who they are.[/QUOTE] Then why do you dislike The Crusade? If you ask me the guitar work is awesome, obviously yes it is inspired by Metallica, but it's more melodic and still hardly a rip-off...
Trivium are one of my favourite bands. Two amazing guitarists, and an amazing drummer.
They are known for focusing on Melody in their music.
Haha those covers are hilarious.
I love trivium, and Shogun is my fav album, then acendancy. i Liked 'The Crusade', but then again Metallica are my fav band so... The point is i love trivium [img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/biggrin.gif[/img][img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/biggrin.gif[/img][img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/biggrin.gif[/img]

I think they are a really good band. They have some amazing guitar work. I was in the very front when they played at Mayhem Fest. I have tickets to see them again in like... 25 days =)
Thank you for the bump, I didnt even know there was a thread already.
Seen them twice They are okay
Trivium are gods. I saw them live in Sydney in March with Black Tide and Heaven Shall Burn and they shat ALL OVER both bands. Fucking crazy, I was right up the front against the barricade and got crushed. Lol.
When I saw them Matt Heafy got hit in the face with a shoe
I like them. Their latest album is very good, and I also like the title track from The Crusade.
I feel like I'm the only one who likes the crusade. The Crusade album was pretty awesome. Not a big fan of their other stuff.
Me like. Discovered them recently, and I must say I love how they did some parts of Ascendacy and most of Shogun. It... Confounds me... I think OP is a bit off in his introduction tho. :S
Ember to Inferno and Ascendancy are their best ones after that it just gets too Metalcore for my tastes
I'm personally not a big fan. But then I've only listened to Shogun and whatever last.fm puts on my recommended list when I make a Machine Head or DevilDriver radio, which isn't very much. Like Silver said, too metalcore for my tastes.
my favorite trivium song right now: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6pp_oHl68I[/media]
