Trivium Taps Colin Richardson For New Album Mix |
| artist: trivium |

Florida metallers Trivium have tapped Colin Richardson (Slipknot, Machine Head, Fear Factory, Bullet For My Valentine, Napalm Death) to mix their new album, "Shogun", which is scheduled for release on September 30 via Roadrunner Records. The CD is currently being mixed in London, with Jeff Rose and Martin "Ginge" Ford assisting on engineering duties.
For " Shogun", Trivium chose not to record in the familiar environs of their home state of Florida. Instead the band headed to Nashville, Tennessee to work with producer Nick Raskulinecz (Rush, Foo Fighters, Stone Sour). The result is a monolithic album that crystallizes the band's sound and showcases Trivium's finest elements. Vocalist/guitarist Matt Heafy is thrilled with the album, saying, " We made a cohesive, epic metal album that combines all of the ingredients of everything we feel we have ever done 'right' musically, while adding a new direction that the music called for. We had so much fun creating this album and hope our fans feel that energy when they listen."
"Shogun" track listing:
01. Kirisute Gomen
02. Torn Between Scylla And Charybdis
03. Down From The Sky
04. Insurrection
05. Into The Mouth Of Hell We March
06. Throes Of Perdition
07. He Who Spawned the Furies
08. Of Prometheus And The Crucifix
09. The Calamity
10. Like Callisto To A Star In Heaven
11. Shogun
Trivium reportedly wrote around 40 songs last year and demoed the best 15 or so before commencing the new LP recording sessions. "When we went in, we thought, 'Hey, these songs are good enogh for the album already,' but we've overhauled almost everything," Heafy told Revolver magazine. "Nick has encouraged us to explore so many new ideas that we never would have thought of."
In a previous interview with Revolver, guitarist Corey Beaulieu stated about the upcoming CD, "We want to capture the best ingredients of everything we've done. Each song has a little bit of everything, going between something heavy and then melodic, and then back to something heavy. So it has a really interesting balance. On 'The Crusade', Matt did almost all singing, so this time we're bringing back some of the screaming that's on [2005's] 'Ascendancy'."
Thanks for the report to Blabbermouth.net.

: I'm sick and tired of idiots saying that The Crusade sounds like Metallica, and that The Crusade is Trivium's worst album. SERIOUSLY! Trivium's ideas are generally more complex and "in-your-face" than Metallica (not saying that it's better than Metallica) and their solo ideas and harmonies use DIFFERENT SCALES and THERE ARE MORE HARMONIES and THEIR FUCKING STYLE IS DIFFERENT! LISTEN TO THE FUCKING ALBUM BEFORE JUST SAYING WHAT EVERYONE ELSE SAYS.
Anyway, in my opinion, The Crusade is excellent. The production is amazing, and the riffs are absolutely incredible. Although the lyrical ideas are fairly boring and repetitive throughout the album, the music makes up for it. Only 2 things wrong with it: In Detonation the solo was too Slayer-style, and I expected WAY more from The Crusade (song).POSTED: 07/17/2008 - 12:41 pm / quote |

You say that the lyrics are boring, what about that bit on Anthem where he goes 'Woah Woah, Woah Woah, Woah Woaah, Woah Woaah, Woah Woah, Woah Woah, Woah Woaah, Woah Woah! Yeah Yeeah, Yeah Yeaah, Yeah Yeaaah, YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!

I didn't love or hate The Crusade, I just found it a bit too boring for my tastes. That's not to say that the riffs and production weren't pretty zazzy, but it's just that the album was nothing new.POSTED: 07/17/2008 - 01:02 pm / quote |

: They actually took time for this album, rather than for the Crusade which was a bit quick... should be better.
And for all the people who say that the Crusade was not a rip-off of Metallica, try to put Master of Puppets (Metallica) and Detonation (Trivium) on your play list.
The song structure is too similar to be coincidental, and the music itself sounds very much alike.
Also, Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucjxNQ5WdD0
Ember to Inferno and Ascendancy were excellent. Can't wait to hear what the new album's like. Hopefully it is more original musically, vocally and lyrically.

If it's anything like Ascendancy, it'll be anything but original. Instead they'll be back to sounding like every other metalcore band out there.
I for one couldn't care how they sound, as long as they sound good. People complain too much about stupid, mundane shit, rather than just enjoying the music.POSTED: 07/17/2008 - 02:29 pm / quote |

by chance have u ever heard their demo? well quite a few songs sound similar to songs like Becoming the Dragon off The Crusade it was more singing style... and it was released same year but before ETI. o and all u morons who say Crusade = Metallica, well ur wrong for 2 reasons, they cant even make decent music anymore just shitty. o and also they wouldnt have been able to play crusade's songs... travis destroys lars, both triv guitarists are better than metallica's especially Kirk. so how can something sound like a cover when they couldnt even write it!... they aint technical enough

I'm sick of people like you bagging The Crusade out! It is much better than Ascendancy. The Crusade has much better singing and guitar technique. All the riffs are much more technical. Have a listen to Entrance of the Conflagration, Tread The Floods and Contempt Breeds Contamination.
So stop bitching, becase either way Matt and Corey are better guitarists then you'll ever be.

Most bands go into the studio with atleast 40 songs which they cut down to the album. Dream Theater composed, recorded and produced their last album in less than a month. When you have weeks of free time in a studio, you tend to get shit done.POSTED: 07/18/2008 - 12:56 am / quote |

: I don't get it, the Song titles seem to be all about Homer's Odyssey, and yet the album is called "Shogun", which is a Japanese general and has absolutely nothing to do with ancient Greece?

As long as it doesn't sound like The Crusade, this should be decent.
I'm sick of people like you bagging The Crusade out! It is much better than Ascendancy. The Crusade has much better singing and guitar technique. All the riffs are much more technical. Have a listen to Entrance of the Conflagration, Tread The Floods and Contempt Breeds Contamination.
So stop bitching, becase either way Matt and Corey are better guitarists then you'll ever be.
Looking forward to seeing them August 13th at Enmore Theatre! |

: Everyone needs to chillout yeah? Trivium is a band who is open about their influences but unique in their writing, and are amazing in composing and technique. Now even though The Crusade is my favourite album, they are all good, and opinions vary but that is nothing to whinge over, for any music that moves you physically (headbanging, moshing, pitting, waltzing? whatever) or emotionally and spiritually is amazing. Paolo saying The Crusade was weaker than the others shows he doesn't have faith or believe in the direction of his career and business, which shows that he's weak (although respect and props to him, I'm positive he is a champ, just said something silly). Everyone needs to enjoy the music more than analyse if one riff kicks another ones arse. Even if one does, who cares its all good!
Peace out, metal out 
13th Aug at Enmore!! BOOYAH!!!POSTED: 07/18/2008 - 02:48 am / quote |

: ok...fair enuff the articles r gettin similar & i hav seen dat track listin before, but seriously trivium hav got a gud thing goin on, & if you dnt lyk anything they change from album to album then you dont like trivium therefore shudnt be readin bwt there nu stuff? they made a few changes to explore wot sort of stuff they really play, & its a very broad spectrum of music so now there tryin 2 encompass it all in one album, which is most likely going to be the actual 'trivium sound', which i can bet probably wont sound lyk metallica, because their stuff is blatantly metallica wen you turn it on, wen i hear a trivium song i hear triviums vocals, guitar playing and drums, so they cnt be that similar

: ok Im not sure what the hell some of yalls problems are but shut the **** up. if your a true fan of Trivium the sit there and enjoy their music, otherwise turn it off because for those of us who are true fans, we dont want to deal with your stupid comments on how they should do what they used to. if you cared at all it wouldnt matter how they used to sound. theyve matured so how about you do the same. id like to see you do half of what theyve done anyways.POSTED: 07/18/2008 - 04:54 am / quote |

thats incredibly stupid. you realise its possible to like an album by aband, then not like the next one, then like the one after, right? not being so keen on one album by a band doesn't limit you to never liking anything new they do.
also, to all you trivium fanboys, i liked ascendancy. i didnt like the crusade. get the **** over it already. why are you so insecure about your musical taste that you have to justify it by sayin that, if you didnt adore everything trivium have and will do, you're not a genuine trivium fan.
if people think that the crusade sounds like metallica, then thats what they think. dont try to argue with them, just be happy in the belief that you dont.
sheesh.POSTED: 07/18/2008 - 08:16 am / quote |

not so much as a Trivium fan but just to see where they progress from here.

Oh dear god. That album wasn't like a Metallica album. Heafy's voice was a little like Hetfield's, but musically it certainly wasn't.
