Ghost To Tour With Trivium, In Flames

Posted by Chris Harris on July 22, 2011 in News, Tour Dates

I dare say it, but I think Ghost are getting too big, too quickly. That usually only leads to a harder fall — usually. Not that that’s what I want for Ghost. I don’t. I happen to dig them. But are they the best thing since pornography? Not by a long shot. Anyways, Ghost are Read More

Dream Theater To Tour With Trivium?

Posted by Chris Harris on July 17, 2011 in News

Blabbermouth claims this is going down, but I have not personally heard anything about this, so I can’t say if it’s actually going down. The site says Dream Theater will embark on a U.S. headlining tour in September with support from their Roadrunner Records labelmates Trivium. Exact cities and dates will be announced soon, claims Read More

Trivium Post Yet Another Song Online: Hear It Now!

Posted by Chris Harris on July 14, 2011 in News, Song Debuts, Video

It’s called “Inception Of The End,” and it sounds like Trivium, only darker, heavier and more extreme. You know, they’re trying their damnedest to win us all over, aren’t they? The song isn’t half bad. It isn’t half good either. It just sort of happens. Matt Heafy’s taking something of a different vocal approach here, Read More

Posted by Chris Harris on July 2, 2011 in News

I’ve always been open and honest about my relationship with Jason Suecof, super producer to the metal stars. We tight. He’s my boy, blue. We’re such good pals, we actually watch whatever movies or TV shows we recommend to each other. He’s a good dude, works hard, and deserves good things. This past week was Read More

Trivium Almost Broke Up…So Close!

Posted by Chris Harris on June 13, 2011 in News

I can’t believe how close we were, and yet, it didn’t happen. Trivium came within a twat-hair of breaking up, and didn’t. Fucking teases. Imagine, a world with no more new Trivium music — took a second to seriously imagine it. Isn’t that a nice feeling? According to Artisan News Service, who had a recent Read More

DevilDriver Recording Cover For Metallica Tribute; Who Else Will Be On It?

Posted by Chris Harris on June 9, 2011 in Huh?, New Records, News

I knew this was going down. That is to say, I knew — thanks to Facebook — that Mark Lewis was heading West to work with the one and boring DevilDriver, and, I wondered to myself, “What’s Mark going to be doing with DevilDriver out West?” Well, it’s actually quite interesting. DevilDriver entered a recording Read More

Trivium “Leak” New Track On That Interwebs Thing

Posted by Chris Harris on May 21, 2011 in News, Song Debuts

OK, so I have given Trivium a fair amount of shit over the last few months because they tend to sound like Metallica to me. But I think with this new record, that may stop. I’m listening to this new track that “leaked” on YouTube (which you will find after the jump) and it sounds Read More
