You know what bugs me about Trivium? Yeah, they can shred, and yeah their songs are catchy, but to me it sounds like a bunch of suits sat in a boardroom and came up with Trivium. To me, they sound like a PowerPoint presentation turned into a band.
I keep expecting to go the supermarket and see cans of Triviuim, right next to the cans of Spam and condensed milk.
Metal is turning into a
commodity again, lead by Krank Amp product placement, the Andy Sneap school of cookie cutter guitar tones, and bands like Trivium.
Perhaps when they compose something that can match
this for sheer power and authenticity I'll change my mind, but until then ...I'll take rye over white bread thanks.
