Trivium - A Gunshot To The Head Of Trepidation [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[@adamjones9993]

This song has one of their best solos, I think

[@codyt6250]

St. Anger has some of my favorite Tallica songs on it, trash can drums who cares, let me guess you're one of those people who say it's not how Dave Mustaine sounds singing it's the guitars.

[@DagzTheClown]

Agreed my friend!

[@KaylinMajestic]

Its literally hard to believe that this is the same Matt. Trivium's sound has changed so much, Matt looks so different, its like two different bands altogether. Still a fan since '04, love everything

[@MorticiaObscurum]

I love how they have matured and refined their sound. And Alex as their drummer is a blessing.

[@cbl6520]

The chinstrap beard and eyeliner definitely didn’t help. 😂

[@Grimnirs_Oath]

Apparently the band didnt want the “emo” look but the record label made them do it because thats what was popular in metal at the time

[@cbl6520]

@@Grimnirs_Oath Think I remember Matt mentioning that in a lecture he did and sure enough, not even a year later, he and the band ditched the look entirely.

I don't consider Matt or Trivium underrated, they're one of the best known bands to emerge in the 2000s

[@JarlStensson]

@@zonic26 shitty disturbed has 5 times more monthly listeners so

[@DLeRoux]

@@JarlStensson And? Means nothing. Lady Gaga has triple that. Matt is respected by ever metal guitarist that has lived and as living. Trivium as a band has suffered in the past few years - they are just not as good as they were. The first albums were by far the best, and it's been a steady decline in goodness. That being said, Matt and Corey have always been in the top guitarists.

[@hutvagnerandras2194]

Matt was only 19 when they wrote this song. I really hope he's gonna be a legend one day.

[@atrpunk]

ascendancy defined an entire year of my life in my mid 20s. fuckin gold.

[@synyster215]

I was in the 4th grade when I waited for the release date of this album. On the day it released I begged my parents to drive to the nearest sizable town, which was 20 miles or so away, just so that I could get my hands on it. They said that was the quietest I had ever been in the car because on the way back I was completely entranced by the music, just sitting in bewilderment with my headphones in. That was by far the best car ride of my life. It's strange looking back on it. It feels even stranger that I'm now about the same age as Matt when he first released this song. Thanks for the memories, Trivium. Also, thanks for continuing to put out good music. You were my first favorite band.

[@dizzydreamaway]

10 years ago I was 19 and heard this song live for the first time not knowing who Trivium were. They opened for In Flames at a show at The Drink in London, Ontario and I headbanged and moshed so hard not caring that I had never heard of this band before. I could have left the show after their set and been completely satisfied with my concert experience. It was that good. I wasn't even excited about In Flames anymore after I heard Trivium. The next year I went back to see them again at the same venue, and got to meet them backstage as a special fan club event. They were so chill, it was amazing. Best concert memory.

[@CrimsonRedWaterfall]

+dizzydreamaway Epic story! I''m from London as well.

[@robertcamp8799]

+dizzydreamaway I saw that tour, but in Austin, Texas at the Backroom. One of the last shows ever played at that great venue. I went for Trivium.

[@SuperStorybot]

[@SKATEFAM0US]

that's an understatement.

Ascendancy is the best album Trivium. With the first to the last song!

[@phfle1]

[@23bobjr]

+phfle1 Production means fuck all if you can feel the music and it means something to you. Real music doesnt need a glossy coating.

[@GamingWithCubby]

+23bobjr I agree. Production on all the good bullet for my valentine albums weren't as good as the new one but Venom is still a pile of shit no matter how much they try to polish it A polished turd is still a turd.

[@MrShippopi]

Shogun is far better

[@alexanderhinrichs342]

I love young Trivium. I love new Trivium. I love all Trivium!! Honestly do not even think I can have a favorite album of theirs. Ascendancy is just pure shredding, fast, thrashing awesomeness, but Vengeance Falls is so mature and powerful. The music on Vengeance Falls is so powerful as well. As for this song, easily one of my favorite solos!

matt heafy is a rare talent. He can scream and sing and shred. very few can pull off what he can

Probably the best solo I have ever heard. Matt was 18 when this song was written and performed. Gonna let that sink in.

[@numbskull6593]

Randy Freshour Check out the solo in Floods by Pantera.

[@B33fJerky123]

I love Trivium but shit like this just shows how little you have explored in music

[@randyfreshour5958]

It's all in taste, my friend. I know of many solos and whatnot that are more technical, more heavy, less technical, etc. but this one just so happens to be my favorite

[@I_am_Jordan_K]

Definitely a cool solo for sure - probably the highlight of the song in my opinion. Just keep in mind that "favorite" and "best" aren't interchangeable terms - they mean different things.

[@randyfreshour5958]

No, yeah for sure. That's why I said "...best I have heard" as opposed to out there. I should have actually said "one of the best" as opposed to THE best haha

When I was 16 and family getting divorce, I came to Metal Music, found this song, for the same family issues this song is written about. Im 31 now, this music saved my life from a broken child to an entrepreneur. I owe Trivium a lot.

[@SuicideRawwwrSky]

This is the best song by them, in my opinion. Ascendancy, his best album too.

[@GthemanTM]

I would completely agree. Past this album, they rarely scream and really seem to try to appeal the "Octane crowd" more, if you have Sirius XM.

[@RobinSijtsma]

I think all they wanted to do is get away al little from that metalcore side and branch out a little more, i think the new stuff is pretty fucking cool though

[@SuicideRawwwrSky]

***** Yeah, they new material is very great and the voice of Matt is awesome too.

[@apinder8610]

This was my introduction to them, heard this on MTV but didn't catch the band or track name. So had to search for days until i finally heard it again and caught it. After that, i found my new favorite band for many years to come, the first one after Metallica. And 17 years have passed on this masterpiece of an album. Congrats to Trivium and to Ascendancy 🤘🤘

You starve your children on neglect Then feed their bellies with fear Concussion bat to the brain Witness to a battered mother [Chorus] Your abuse will end right here No longer will your family fear A gunshot to head of trepidation My promise if you ever lay a finger Just look at the scars you make Your terror makes your kids break A broken home just as you were raised With fist raised up to your children [Chorus] This battle is on all You've made beautiful Now hateful You wretched life wrecker Abuser Now suffer Open fire On the desire of the man Open fire With strife we'll strike down the hand (Open fire, build the pyre) If I can't make you see the damage you've made (Open fire, build the pyre) I'll make you wish you'd never been alive x2

[@HoradricGuitar]

+Flip Ramirez They're considered to be in the top 5 metalcore bands in the world

[@intheraeyne]

Oli, maybe in the East U.S. Their shows are tiny here in Washington and Oregon. I've seen them twice and at most, there was 200 people present to see them each time. The venues were incredibly small and the only people they could get to open for them were local bands that weren't that amazing. This was in 2014 and late 2015. I don't think they're very well known on the West Coast... if they are, no one cares to see them as much it would seem. There was a giant metal festival last summer where they had a crowd, but Avenged Sevenfold was the headliner and so people were there for them. Asking Alexandria was also there and more people came for them, too.

[@Kraev369]

Young or "old" trivium as some may call it is them just growing up still and enjoying headbanging and playing the fuck out of their guitars!! :D Seriously i mean they still have the same underlying message and amazing lyrics that pertain to our ordinary lives and our societies and how fucked up shit can really be. That is what i have always heard so i see no reason to just like new trivium or only like old trivium. They are just grown up now and they use the power of the voice more so then just jammin' the fuck out lol. Not that they don't get down still i am just saying the Voice is really the weapon in the end. So enjoy both old and new trivium and stop saying they have changed or blah blah whatever is lol, and if you're hating on new trivium then you're just missing out on really great music from the same band you love.

[@haymaker368]

Amen, brother!

[@adonasb]

Lucid Spore I agree 100%. I can't say I'm a fan of "young (or old)" but that is just my personal opinion. They did do an incredible job on Vengeance Falls, however. You are absolutely right and I couldn't have said it better myself. They were having fun when they wrote, recorded, and play this music, so good for them. They shouldn't have to change anything to please the people. If you don't like the music, don't listen to it. Why should they change for anyone else? And if anyone thinks Trivium or any other band should play their music to appease to you, why don't you pick up an instrument and do it your damn self? Instead of just putting down other people. I have nothing but the up most respect for Trivium and every other band or musician that has "changed their sound" because they were doing what they wanted to do and enjoyed it all the way. Edit: And respect to you Mr. Spore, for your disregard of what other people think (something you cannot change, regardless)

[@angrymcplatipus123]

Adonas The One Although I agree with you that Trivium shouldn't change to fit someone else's preference, I have to disagree with "why don't you pick up an instrument and do it your damn self." Most people can't learn an instrument that easily, and just because you like a style and want to play it, doesn't mean that you can. I think the reason a lot of people get mad when a band changes their style, is because they can't find that style in any other bands. For them, it meant that the style they fell in love with ceased to exist.

[@angrymcplatipus123]

andrew welsh that being said, I like both new and old Trivium. Bands can't always play the same style all the time forever.

crazy how the record company has a say in how a bands image should be, trivium spoke about this.. where they didnt really wanna go for this whole emo thing, but the record label was pressuring them into it because this is what was in.

I'm sorry, I'm just speaking simple truth here: This song in just about every way out-right annihilates every other piece they have ever put out since. Granted, I'm a fan of their newer stuff too, but NONE of it has had the effect on me that this one still does to this day. It's absolutely ridiculous!

[@dangoodbad1951]

they sounded so fresh when this came out, they could have been the new Metallica but they've been very patchy since

[@MrShippopi]

Shogun tops it for me

[@adilhimri9302]

[@DragonKillur]

@@josephmcconnel330 It was ironic

[@DragonKillur]

@@josephmcconnel330 yeah me too youtube comment sections suck ass now, especially for music videos because of all the unoriginal unfunny bullshit that's rampant

[@DragonKillur]

@@josephmcconnel330 It's all good because I feel the same way you do man

[@woodsgump]

I can see some Metallica influence on this for instance Ride the Lightning. That’s so amazing that this band took those aspects and crank them up to bad-ass!

[@xxFABLEZxx]

That riff is giving me such an In Flames vibe! Am I the only one?

[@jaypiarz8133]

in flames rules seen them live twice amazing

[@xxFABLEZxx]

by far my favorite band, seen them 4-5 times live

[@jeffvance26]

The old drummer rewatching this lile dayummm the sin and the sentenced be hella fast drummin😂😂😂

[@erdemyabas381]

best song of Trivium by far. melodic solos, aggresive riffs (even sometimes black metal background like Abyssos) and a nice energetic final. Like a superb movie. And a nice performance video.

[@KrisKringlez]

Paolo looks so damn weird with hair

[@AntoQ]

I see them like two different bassists like "Look this is when they had that other bassist with hair"... Is the only way my brain can process it.

[@tessdurberville473]

That's actually not Paolo in the video. But paolo had long hair (which looked awesome)

[@TonyMcCrea]

That IS Paolo, are you blind? You can clearly see his face in a few shots.

[@tessdurberville473]

Wait i always thought that this is Brent Young in the Video since Paolo had really long and curly hair during the Crusade era (2006) and Ascendancy was released in 2005. So either paolos hair grows faster than a wookiee's or the music videos were recorded at some other time (probably before the album was released). But taking a closer look yeah that could actually also be Paolo. I know that he played on the Album (ascendancy) but i always thought that he wasn't in the video because he usually plays with his fingers and here he uses a pick. Thanks for the Correction.

[@LostBoy316]

Matt and Paolo used to straighten their hair along with every other metal dude in 2006

[@xderty5752]

2019, anyone else here with me?

[@aaron.biketrials]

Hell yeah!👊

[@YungBuckTheLabrat]

ME!😁

[@potsnpansR0B0T]

Will never get old

[@tinyfire343]

💪

[@elibrambley8394]

yes yes we are :)

[@shawncastles]

I never get tired of their songs. I started listening to Trivium when a friend recommended Down From The Sky and I still listen to it. They sound good live too!

[@Mark-om3cl]

That’s where I disagree I think they’re awful live.

[@Mark-om3cl]

The drummers they’ve had though are on point every time live or not. Can’t fault them.

[@trepvision8299]

All these ppl. he is a legend to me don't care about opinions and the rest of his band they are all amazing. Everyone that listens to metal will know this band for sure.

[@samcullen4667]

Still one of my favorites, Matt IS a legend.

[@21shaparra]

una de mis rolas favoritas♥ Matt es un genio de la música *w*

[@mr.synyster8833]

The song, lyrically & melodically is brilliant. The video is very lackluster. Luckily, someone with brains was in charge of keeping the solo intact.

[@Gematrier96]

ASCENDANCY IS BEST METALCORE ALBUM EVER !!

[@joerahme9030]

If I had to choose the best and most influential metalcore album it would be Waking The Fallen by Avenged Sevenfold if not The Poison by Bullet For My Valentine comes in by a close second... but yes.. this album is absolutely EXTRAORDINARY.

[@northwindkey]

Mr.Jack I don't see Metalcore in this album aside from Suffocating Sight. More of a Thrash album, just with Metalcore vocals.

[@JonnyCapes713]

I really hope this band makes it big

[@0_ozz.X]

Bruh they're literally fucking Trivium...

[@angoovaiphei1612]
