Okay after hearing all the fuss about them and Kerrangs overblown comparisons (seriously it was on NME standard!), i put myself on a mission to hear some of their stuff!
Luckily my good friend Sprocky managed to show me a few tracks yesterday (i KNEW he had a use).
I have to say, definately very good. Got my thumbs up. Had an obvious nod to its influences while having a bit of their own style in there. Not always overly keen on those vocals however. Its definately got the Roadrunner vibe running through it. I LOVED those drum beats, pretty intense but not randomly fast which many bands do. Like Sprocky said it was a bit like early Metallica with different vocals. However if you like them then PLEASE check out In Flames as they have influenced just about every modern heavy metal band and these boys are obviously no exception! If anyone wants a temporary swap of albums then I'd happily oblige!
Peace!

TRIVIUM are like probably one of my fav bands at the mo and i have to agree with some of the stuff u have said andy. they have some increditable druming with travis' fast legs on the pedals being a big part of there sound. the second thing that i think makes them a great sound to listen to is matts and coreys talented riffs, also because of their talented fingers they can produce some 'face melting' solos. however matts 'agressive' vocals i have to say after a while can get a bit boring as it is all the same so i think he needs to try and vary the throat he is producing. i have seen them once so far on the roadrunner records tour which was a impresive gig n i and a few mates goin to see them again on the 19th of sept. this gig i think is goin to be a great with ALL THAT REMAINS and IT DIES TODAY which are both very good bands. ALL THAT REMAINS are a american metal band with talent they have many levels to them with thumping druming and quick fingered riffs n solos and contain a lot of break down finished off with some amazin aggresive vocals that seem to have an ends scale. IT DIES TODAY are a sort of metal emo band with sounds like still reamins. over all it goin to be a great gig
