    I don't like it. Musically it's alright I guess but not a fan of the vocals. It's neither a step back or a step forward for the band.

    My thoughts exactly, no surprise it didn't make the cut on the Shogun album it just wouldn't have fitted in...no doubt they'll try something new as they do lets hope its better than the last album.

    The album artwork reminds me a lot of Motorheads logo.

    I love the new approach to the vocals, and to see the return of seven string guitars. Nice to hear something different! Looking forward to hearing more tracks. Bit mad I am missing Bloodstock this weekend!


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    I wonder is their Bloodstock set being livestreamed??

    Thats a bloody interesting sounding album from trivium! Or at least the 3 songs i have heard. I love it!
    Have always been able to take or leave them but cant wait to hear the full album here.
    Someone mentioned Dio. It does sound like a hark back to those times! Havent heard any screaming vocals yet!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11

    Anyone pick up the new album yet?

    Anyone pick up the new album yet?

    It was out on Spotify last week. Gave it one spin and that will be it I think. I'm fine with the fact that have changed direction to more traditional heavy metal / power metal but it's not that interesting to be honest.

    Matt can sing but in so doing they have lost the unmistakable sound that made them unique and now just sound like a dozen other middle of the road metal bands.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 10,087 ✭✭✭✭Dan_Solo


    Can't stand the new album. I think it's their worst by some stretch. :(
    Hopefully a one off...

    The revolving door of drummers in Trivium has revolved again, out goes Mat Madiro, in comes Paul Wandtke.
    We are writing this to let you all know that Trivium has amicably parted ways with Mat Madiro as our drummer.
    Mat stepped up for us at a dire moment where it was either leave a tour, or carry on. With Mat, we will forever be eternally grateful of everything he helped us out with. Mat’s time filling in for us was much appreciated.
    Creatively though, we felt at this time we needed to make a change. And every change, every difficult decision and every evolution that Trivium has either decided, or been forced to make has been for the necessary for us to continue on as a functioning band. The things that go on behind the scenes that directly involve the Trivium members aren't always apparent from an outside fan’s perspective.
    With that said our new drummer is Paul Wandtke from Chicago,IL. With Paul, we took our careful time deciding exactly what had to happen and how.
    We spent our time checking out, trying out and feeling out many drummers this time around. After much deliberation, Paolo said to Matt one day "you should hit up John Petrucci and see if he has an ideas." We figured our friend John may have some ideas from the Berklee-world.
    John brought Mike Mangini into the conversation and within minutes of describing our conundrum to Mike, he had a name: Paul Wandkte. Paul studied under Mike at Berklee, and obviously made an impression on a man we consider to be one of the greatest drummers on the planet.
    Paul made his debut with us in thunderous fashion this past weekend by playing to 40,000 fans at Knotfest Mexico. And he nailed it. We hope to work with Paul for a long time and we hope the Trivium fans around the world welcome him with open arms.
    Says Paul, "I was blown away when Trivium had contacted me. I have been looking for a place to call home all my life, a home of brothers with similar tastes in music, musicianship and goals. I'd like to thank Dream Theater's Mike Mangini for getting us in contact. I couldn't be happier, this is literally life changing. Never give up, be yourself and rock on."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11


    Shame to see Mat leave. Paul seems damn good. Please god let this be a more permanent fixture


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Well if Mike Mangini recommended him, then he's gotta be good... Damn shame Mat leaving for ''creative'' differences

    So in the 15 years Trivium have been a band, they are now on their 4th drummer

    Travis Smith
    Nick Augusto
    Mat Madiro
    Paul Wandtke

    Never seen a band with such a turnover of drummers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11


    Just a shame what Matt Heafys dad posted on instagram about none of the previous drummers being up to the standards of the other 3 guys. Seems belittling of the abilities of 3 pretty damn good drummers

    Well that's just petty on Heafy's dad's part to be honest.

    I unfollowed every one of their social media profiles. I am done with this band until they get their act together (that'll show 'em :pac: )

    If it's anything like their last two albums I am out altogether. They were good albums but they were terrible, terrible Trivium albums though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11


    I loved the last album, despite its really low audio mix

    75 Mins? The new drummer must be a slow learner


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,346 ✭✭✭King George VI


    Just giving In Waves another listen after a while. Jesus this album kicks ye in the jaw. That Chaos Reigns track is unreal. Directly after the album finished Silence In The Snow started playing and I got sad at what this band has become. Fair play to them on trying to be a bit more mainstream and trying new things artistically but that album sucks. I hope the next album is a bit more heavy/not so polished.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,386 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Teasing something on their social media pages;

    The message...Beware those who speak in tongues for they may speak your name

    Followed by VIII.I and a link to their website trivium.org

    Possibly VIII.I is the 1st of Aug, a new album would due album would be due to be number 8 also...hmmmm :confused:

    They may have found their best drummer since Travis, and that's not knocking on the others who have sat behind the kit. The song itself has to my ears anyways has a mix of Silence in the Snow, Shogun and Ascendancy to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    Yeah Alex is defo a cut above the last 3. He has more imaginative fills and seems an overall better fit.

    Song is great and a real return to form for them. If this is Shogun 2 I'll be delighted.

    Theres as much Ascendancy in that song as there is in the last Rihanna album :eek:

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,414 ✭✭✭Toobz


    There's a lot of Shogun in there though. I think they've taken all their best elements and hopefully the album keeps it going.

    Have a few days off soon. Tempted to go see them in Tilburg, they sounded tighter than ever at Woodstock last night.

    New track is here...

    Really liked the last album, so far this one is another different direction they have brought back obvious vox just delivered slightly differently from before, only gave it the one listen but seems to be a decent bit to like there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    The album leaked online this morning.

    Other than the stuff heard already the last 3 tracks and "Beyond Oblivion" really stood out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    It's so much better than Vengeance Falls & Silence In The Snow (even though I thought that Silence was a solid enough album).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,386 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Really liked Silence meself Vengeance is their worst album for me Strife is the only track from it making the sets too.

    Drummer is a beast live but think his addition to the recording here perhaps isn't as impactful as his predecessors imo, need more time to assess the album but first impressions are positive anyhow.

    There are good tracks on Vengeance, Strife among them, but the whole album feels cold/disjointed..

    They've got to hold onto Alex, and not let him go. And his playthrough of Betrayer is amazing.

    I totally lost interest with Silence in the Sneachta, found it terribly dull.

    This new one though is much better, they seem to have got their groove back.

    Not a bum track on there and perhaps just behind shogun in their discography.
