You are not James Hetfield, Matt.

I know you aren´t reading is, but whatever. Paolo, tell him.

I think everyone here has tired of your shit. You pretty came on the forum and flamed your 6 year old ass off about how bad Trivium is. Now idk if it’s the fact that you have no friends because of how much a flamer you are, or if you’re just lonely but you really have no purpose or reason here. Normally I have no problem with a flamer who comes on and leaves one msg, but ive read probably 6 of your comments now. Besides, we like Trivium and you should just fuck off if you dont, because you are accomplishing nothing if you dont.
Do you get my point, or prove my point further by replying?

Trivium inspired me to make music, and Im making music. I practice guitar for hours upon hours a day, because they were just Kids, playing music and got somewhere. People are just bitter-Look at it this way
Matt and the guys coulda crumbled from the pressure and be gone now, or have sold out completely-For those of you who haven’t listened to Shogun, GO FUCKING DO SO! Its nothing like The Crusade-Its TRIVIUM, The crusade was Trivium in a new light. Big deal, people change and make mistakes.
If it weren’t for Matt and the band, I’d probably be just like the rest of you narrow-minded pricks.
File sharing/CD burning/Mixtapes is great! Bands don’t get paid that much, and in this changing time, bands just need their music to be heard. Time for a REAL revolution-Metal style.
Time to overthrow and annihilate the things we’ve known up til now and get uncomfortable. Only then will we be able to break free and start afresh.
ALSO…
People need to have something to hold onto in their age-for the 80s, kids were into metallica…
We need something to define our time-and Trivium are THE band for that IMO. I would prefer the lyrical themes of Ascendancy-BUT-I stand and wait in anticipation for the next album, regardless of what they do next-I’ll thirst for their music like I have done up until now.
Ive got each album before release. And bought them anyways :D. leart every single song and handed it all over to my friends :). and the cycle shall continue!
COME BACK TO WALES!!

Okay, I always love “the spread of word” thing but it doesn’t make sense this time after burning two Trivium mix cds.
Problem here: Trivium is not little-known. I mean, if someone never heard of this band, they probably don’t listen to metal at all. So it did take much persuasion to let this kind of people to give it a try. A buddy of mine was like: I would dig it if there were more tracks like The End (Roadrunner United). Get the picture? Music itself is the obstacle. So, how to deal with it? Make thrash-pop stuff like ATR’s Overcome? Just kidding. Trivium won’t follow suit, I know. lol
Another problem here: No stimulation!! Imagine a kid works super hard and burns 100 cds, trying to let everyone know about his fave band, what will he gain? Nothing.
I personally think the best thing for Trivium is to do LOG- Wrath-esque promotion next time, like select 100 fans to win Trivium guitar lessons, concert tickets and stuff. It will work, trust me.

I will admit the bass solo at the end is rather “cliff burton esque’ but, for one, i know how to play both songs on guitar(solos and all) and they dont sound alike at all. And another thing, the part in the middle is not super fast, and it reminds me more of Reign in Blood than anything else. Overall the song sounds like a TRIVIUM song.

Okay, let me get this straight. TRIVIUM, the face of commercialized, watered down metal for people who aren’t metal, wants to resurrect the mighty tape trading circuit that spawned the heaviest metals to come out of the 1980s. Jesus christ that’s wrong on so many levels. First of all, it doesn’t need resurrecting, there are still many dedicated metal heads who know damn well that the only way they’ll get that obscure classic they’re missing is from a likeminded metalhead, as there literally haven’t been new copies made in maybe 20 years. Second of all, burning a cd or worse, emailing mp3′s, is actually just a hair above oh say, FUCK ALL when it comes to time spent. It’s an insult to everyone who has ever pressed pause and record 50 times trying to get the end of the tape to end at the right time, an insult to anyone who’s ever cut and pasted a badass cover and took it down to the store to photocopy it. BURN TRIVIUM cd’s(like, with fire.)

I know they want to be Metallica and everything and relive tape trading.
But they’re already an established band with tons of mallcore kiddies figuratively sucking their dicks.
God I hate that band.

“It was nothing compared to Gojira, Sanctity, and Annihilator (but they are mediocre bands so I wasn’t that surprised).”

Whoops just read this and it sounded wrong. I meant, they were nothing compared to Trivium :3

thats fair nuff, but i think the lyrics have far mroe depth on shogun, the whole idea fo using myths n ledgends as metaphors isn’t original true and if u quickly gogole the song title u can grasp teh meaning fairly quick
but its way better than ‘we are the fire/resound the anthem’
and that is an undisputeable fact

OK, i’ve never commented on here, but this post got me thinking (plus it’s 6am in the morning and i can’t fucking sleep!).

There are plenty of musicians who are against the whole intellectual property rights monopoly saga, but in all fairness it has jack shit to do with them. They didn’t sign a contract to make decisions within the company, they signed a contract to make music and be damn happy that they’re getting a pay cheque at the end of the day. The job of protecting artists from file sharing is the job of the employer, not the employee. File sharing exists, every man and his dog knows it exists, and Matt Heafy telling people to file share is like me telling people to file share. Don’t get me wrong, i like Trivium (well, i hated them until i saw them live, but they were fucking amazing), but this is the emptiest gesture i’ve seen in a while. Coming off the back of The Pirate Bay losing possibly the biggest case in file sharing history, which ended up having no effect in any way at all, Matt Heafy suddenly chimes in with “his own opinion” that file sharing is good. I’m sure he could have been an absolute prick about the whole file sharing thing, but i’m also sure that no executive from Roadrunner has come up to him yet and said “if you don’t help us cut down on file sharing you’re not getting half as much cash as we gave you for that last album”. I don’t know, maybe i’m just an angry young man, but i can’t help but think he could have made a more useful statement; like slagging off YouTube for removing every music video under the sun!
