I remember when this was new and exciting. Good times. I've moved on to more extreme music, but every now and then I come crawling back because I can't help myself, I can't resist. This music formed an era in my life and I get goose bumps just listening to it. Even if my life falls apart I still have this. I wish you an amazing journey through that which will change your life forever.

Not dissing travis but this is not his best performance, the double kicks are very unclean and didn’t really feel like he got control over them. The ascendancy cut is much better

Trivium is the band that got through college your never too old for reliving old school songs

[@SageRhys]

I'm new to this band, and I keep seeing that people are mad about the change in their sound on their new record, but I personally enjoy it more. Don't get me wrong, I like this too! And I love metalcore, but I appreciate that the singer has pushed his vocals to the next level and I think the new vocals and better writing of their songs has made them heavier, and way more technical. Those are things I greatly appreciate. RANT OVER :P

[@MrPriestyman]

Yea man it's much more progressive but people are pissed off with the production just because it isn't as technical as shogun which is regarded amongst most fans as their best work all their music is subjective and fans are always in conflict about their best work I mean if anything shit like the drums have stepped up much more much tighter

[@SageRhys]

Logan Priest Yeah, i know what you mean, man! :)

[@MrPriestyman]

Matts vocals have definitely improved since then his cleans are one of the best in the metal community elitists would disagree but fuck it I'm gonna say that

[@loganmiller7818]

Sage Rhys I agree with you. What most people don't realize is how young they all were here. Matt joined Trivium when he was only twelve.

[@shahbarapawaka3173]

Matt's rocking a beatles style here, with the strap up so high! lol

[@Amexc]

[@danielhayes3607]

Have you even seen the Beatles?

[@AnthonyTLKR]

The reason for doing so is because it makes it easier to complete more technical parts with little to no errors. Wearing your strap super low is pretty pointless

[@CharlesA.]

@@AnthonyTLKR exactly what i was about to say man. Wearing the strap too low just makes it harder to position your hands correctly.. unless you're like alexi laiho

[@MarkyPaligs]

@@AnthonyTLKR 100% correct. I've played for 2 years with low positioned guitar, it just makes you look cool. Played for 5 more years and I was able to do impossible things on high strap that you cannot do on the other.

[@spudfella4937]

Saw him a couple of weeks ago in Manchester at the Victoria Warehouse and he sounded good to me.

[@DimiusG]

@@spudfella4937 He still kills it, he just approaches his vocals from a well-trained and professional manner now, especially to preserve his voice. I got to see them for the first time live back when they touring Shogun. His screams were beastly, but as the man himself said, he had no idea what the fuck he was doing and ended up destroying his voice. He took time to heal his voice and get proper vocal training while they did the Vengeance Falls and Silence in the Snow album where Corey did most the screams. Nowadays, Matt is back to doing both with Corey doing backing screams and Paolo doing backing cleans 🤘

[@ergile172]

@@DimiusG I'm happy that he's learnt to shield his vocal chords, but there's definitely something special to those raw, throat-tearing screams. You can tell someone's messing up their throat cause' you still hear a bit of their underlying talking-voice character in the scream. I hope no vocalist actually thinks it's worth it to damage their voice permanently, but I can definitely appreciate the pain that Matt put himself through to produce these vocals.
