Trivium - A Crisis Of Revelation [OFFICIAL AUDIO]

I can actually hear the Ascendancy fans losing their minds in this song.

[@climbandslackline487]

You're correct sir

[@ptr_does_music7042]

I can hear every trivium fan losing their minds over this song. It has the chugging and riffs of ascendancy, the ferociousness and progressiveness of Shogun and Crusade! Simply amazing!

My father had a severe stroke one week before this album came out. I was angry, sad, and outwardly emotionless unless something tugged at my strings. The album as a whole (this song especially) helped me gain the strength to carry on as I needed to throughout the whole ordeal. I will forever be thankful to the current members of Trivium for putting out such an amazing album. It is a true return to form, combined with everything else they have released over the past 10+ years. This is the purest form of metal.

[@jordanbenson2980]

There are two types of a bands fans; - one that wants the band to sound exactly like their favourite album from the past and moans about changing their sound. - one that wants a band to progress their sound and not play safe with older sounds and moans when bands revert to old sounds instead of taking risks and progressing What Trivium have done with this album i didn’t think was possible. They have managed to satisfy both of these types of fans and on top of that, deliver what can only be described as a powerhouse of an album that is fantastic from start to finish. Well done guys

[@jordanbenson2980]

@Big Homie Steve The Metal Head to be fair there is a 3rd type of fan and it seems like you and me fall into it. If I liked one album by a band, I’ll give every album they release a chance, regardless of how much I liked their previous. I go in with no preconceptions and no desire of what I want it to sound like. Nihil new album I agree with you, first time I heard Where the Owls, my mind was blown, I found The Work boring as hell.

[@MetalguitarlessonsUK]

I have a slightly different take on that as I feel that first group you refer to there is usually very miscatergorized. Think of it this way- writing music that is significantly above average is very very very very hard, very few people can do that. You can teach anyone to write average music, but even very talented musicians usually cant write more than average....you could ask 100,000 musicians to write 10 songs each and of that maybe 1 or 2 of them would produce something better than average....that is how hard it is to rise above that level...and even musicians who do rise above it for an album can often fail at ever doing so again, it's a delicate balance on a needles edge. So when a band manages to produce a really great album that leaps past that level (as trivium did with ascendancy) its extremely impressive, 1 in a million... but of no guarantee that if they were to completely 180 on that style they will be able to replicate that success at being more than average, that's very unlikely, it's a huge roll of the dice that 90% of bands fail at...and I feel with say the crusade trivium failed at that, I love 80's thrash, they tried to make an 80's thrash album....it was a below average 80's thrash album, they left behind the style they were above average at and tried something they just didnt have the right set of skills to write at the same level of as ascendancy for. People didnt dislike it because they hate 80's thrash or because they hate bands changing...it was because this was not a style they had the same level of skill at making. There are loads of 80's thrash albums that do that sound far far far better than the crusade, there were no albums that did the ascendancy sound as well as trivium...so the crusade ultimately felt pointless. I think this applies to most bands who change and get abandoned by part of their fanbase, it's not necessarily that their fans only want to hear one thing, I'm sure most people have many many different bands they like....its that most bands are only good at writing one thing and are average at others...and why would you want to listen to an average version of a style you could hear a better interpretation of elsewhere? I'd say Trivium struck gold again with shogun, but in waves was bang on average metalcore, vengeance falls was (to me) below average, silence in the snow was average/possibly below, the following 3 were largely going back to the shogun sound and were thus decent...because it's what trivium are good at. There is not a single song on this album that would sound out of place on shogun, it is that sound again and that's great because they're fantastic at it. It's where their talent lies. If after this they wanna completely change and become a black metal band it's their right and I'd understand it....but I'd also very much doubt it would be above average- not because they're bad musicians...theyre phenomenal musicians, it's just a very hard thing to do and they've found the niche they're good at. Most people cant even do one sound above average, very few can do multiple, very very very few can pull off changing sounds each album and have each being above average.

[@Bruh-ob9mi]

I’m not too picky when bands change their sound or keep their old sound, I just care that the sound is good and the boys have ensured that it sounds beyond good. It sounds incredible.

[@MrPantera123456]

Absolutely agree. I’d say this is their best album as crazy as that seems. It’s masterful.

[@sammypenny4510]

One thing i like about trivium is that every album has something to enjoy.

[@rafaelgc9754]

Definitely getting Ascendancy vibes, just as The Defiant was for WTDMS. Cool to include some classic Trivium roots.

[@mr.sidecomments9278]

the verse and chorus are literally Ascendancy title track with the same structure and tuning but a modified chord progression

[@nando-ig6qo]

The Defiant of WTDMS was if In Waves and Ascendancy had a baby

[@MartinBellamyMBDrums]

I can totally hear that in this track. I was thinking Shogun in the others!

[@fl4shbangz]

The riffs are pretty similar. The down-down-up-down picking pattern gives it that Ascendancy sound, same goes for The Defiant as you said

Ascendancy has always been my favorite Trivium album, it was my very first Trivium album. This song literally flashed me back to when I first heard it, sitting on my bed with a stupid grin from one ear to the other. It's safe to say that this has put the exact same stupid grin on my face.

[@Colt2OO2]

They've really topped themselves again with this album didn't they? This song sounds like it could've come straight out of Ascendancy just like The Defiant did for the last album and I think it's fucking incredible since Ascendancy is a very close second in my top 3 Trivium albums behind Shogun and after In Waves. I thought What The Dead Men Say was their best album since Shogun, but this has now taken the crown in my opinion and it just proves why Trivium is easily one of the best modern metal bands of the last 20+ years still going strong today.

[@noahmarchais804]

Trivium, if you can see this message, I want you to know that your music has gotten me through the roughest of times……..and right now being the most difficult and challenging times in my life, I want you to know that I feel every word of your lyrics. I don’t know what pain we have all endured, and I don’t know what story we have to tell, but I can quite honestly tell you that your band knows how to write those heart wrenching, emotional, meaningful, DEEP deep musical pieces. I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there for me in my time of need. When there is no shoulder to cry on, and the people I can turn to cannot help me, I turn to music. Rock on, my brothers. “Captive in their stare Deafening, their voices heard Anomie, broken by their words!” The most devastating and relevant lyrics to ever grace my ears at this current time.

[@mr.sidecomments9278]

nah, this is much closer to the Ascendancy title track than it is to Declaration. If you swap the vocals (verse and chorus) of this and Ascendancy, both will literally fit like a glove to each other's instrumentals. The only thing that Declaration has in common with this is that they're on the same key along with Ascendancy title track, Prometheus, The Deceived and Detonation.

I looked you guys up and I've been listening since, anyways, the point of this whole thing, the first time I heard Alex I was completely blown away, this isn't meant to be critical, but the drummer's you guys had between Travis and Alex, the chemistry just wasn't there, but the second I heard The Sin and the Sentence, you could completely tell it was back, and that's not to say the material from In Waves to Silence in the Snow was not good, you guy's were still killing it, but the last three albums have consecutively improved and every time I think it can't get better, the next single drops and kicks me in the teeth in the most fantastic way.
