  • Matts 19! in this video

  • man matt looks young

  • Great lesson, just threw a cover up, I'm 3 albums late

  • fag

  • is it me? or the intro solo sounds like akira takasaki...

  • They're so fast, it makes the video lag..

  • 1:23 THAT WAS SLOW???

  • Lol Corey is painting his nails :D

  • i just love how they split this up with eachother perfectly

  • im not watching the guitar world cd rom

  • i personally thing corey is better than matt with lead work. have to consider that matt is playing and singing though haha.

  • @metalradio9 Well, Corey is the lead guitarist, after all. Matt's on rhythm, so its his job to be keeping the general theme of the song through chording and riffing. It's Corey's job on lead guitar to basically be the "icing on the cake" and play crazy riffs and solos, whilst still harmonizing with Matt. hope that makes sense :)

  • matt didnt even get his tats yet. haha awesome

  • Fucking awesome Sound Tone (Gibson Custom)

  • lol Corey's face 1:05

  • are matt and corey good friends? some band members hate each other lol. like, would there be much competition between them?

  • 1:21 Corey just chillin XD

  • Damn im a beginner guitarist and i wish i could get that good to make that stuff look easy like so many people do... comes with time i guess

  • @TentativeandIntrepid man keep practicing all is practice and in time you will see that trivium´s music aint that hard as it lookslike believe me just practice everyday and you will make it good luck man

  • hate to break to u bud......everyone shut the fuck up!

  • What really pisses me is that every fucking metal video I see has some dumb shits slagging each other off. Are we just ignoring the music to further our own argument? Metal fans should stick together - we get persecuted enough as it is by chas and suchlike, without then bitching at each other. Just enjoy the music!

    On a lighter tone - TRIVIUM ARE FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!

  • @TheDevilAscendant Fuck off you little pissy faggot... go die in a fucking hole

    I'm kidding :P

  • God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • i have never listened to Trivium before. i watched this video after i saw a "trivium parody" on youtube. and it is so funny that real trivium ectualy play just like they were playing in parody xD

  • they look so miserable, lol

  • @xSirSaucex back in the days maybe they couldn't afford better equipment?

  • duude, i love this solo.

  • Whats the first solo they play in the beggining?

  • @360xboxELITE really

  • @MrRocker989 yes, really...right at the start

  • Forgot to say that you were avoiding what i was saying just like you said i was doing.

  • Hate to break it to ya bud, but you need to look up the dictionary definition of what a hippocrite is...

  • @Blackmark456 hate to break it to you bud, but you need to look up how to spell " hypocrite."

  • @locallistener hate to break it to you bud, but you are gay

  • @iscrewedadonkey hate to break it to you bud, but I wish you would hang yourself and I would be there to watch you slowly die. Have a nice day faggot.

  • @locallistener hate to break it to you bud, but your comebacks make me come back for more

  • lame

  • Can anyone tell me how to harmonise sweep picking sections (minor 3rds, or anything that sounds awesome for metal)? I can harmonise normal riffs and shit just i can't seem to harmonise arpeggios correctly! Help would be appreciated a lot!!!

  • @555ShadowStar666 For good sweep lessons and such go to ultimate-guitar. Just google it bro

  • @seankenny08 Yeah ok :)

  • @555ShadowStar666 Hey what I do is I Take the main arpeggio most likely to be the minor in metal and i go three frets up from the root note and then do a major shape that harmonize string for string so u might want to use the octave (next string 5 frets down thing) and make sure the harmonys go together in that chord tipe thing. and with the major shape (harmonizer) make sure there in the same scale as the main arpeggio (minor) good luck, hope it helps!!

  • @OfficialTorn Hey thanks a lot bro! Really helped man :) I can't get my head round how a major shape harmonises a minor shape though haha. About time i started learning theory i think... Thanks again mate! :D x

  • @555ShadowStar666 well, when ur picking notes out a scale u like for arpeggiating, going up the harmonizing key in the same minor shape would just change the key and those notes r most likley not to be in the same scale when u change the shape in to the major you can keep the the same key with the harmonizing notes! look at the song blackened, or master of puppets. learn both parts of the harmonizing solos in those songs and youll see what i mean!

  • you guys realize matt is 19 in this video right?

  • i so want corey's king v but it cost way to much where i live.

  • sound is a bit like

    eye of the storm by bfmv :)

    love trivium and bullet :DD

  • "Hey guys, we're awesome because we do 3 string sweeps in the same pattern but different positions. We're good because we do that. Fuck playing a different solo, we'll just give you the same shit over and over!"

    That's what Trivium is. These douche-faggots need to learn how to play correctly.

  • @RockXStarEvan I hope that in the month since you've said that, you realized that comment was the dumbest thing anyone has ever said in an attempt to make fun of Trivium. If you actually meant that and still think that, then all hope is lost for the advancement of society if this is the intelligence level we have been reduced to.

  • @ReaperOfMen It was a clear statement. You're obviously just mad because you think their redundant solos are actually good.

  • @RockXStarEvan No, not mad. Just annoyed when people say stupid things. There are only maybe 2 solos that I've though sounded similar, and only because it's Matt's solo and he has a few licks he prefers. I'd advise you to listen to more than 3 songs before claiming anyone has the slightest bit of redundancy in their music. For that reason, I hope you don't enjoy Yngwie and then go around and call someone else's solos redundant.

  • @ReaperOfMen Yngwie is a good guitar player, but yes, he is incredibly redundant. But honestly I've heard more than 3 or 4 trivium songs, they're pretty redundant.

  • @RockXStarEvan I can see your point, as far as how you see Trivium goes. I fail to see a lot of redundancy in them, but I guess that doesn't mean there isn't any.

  • tuning?

    

  • these guys arent bad, but theyre wicked metallica wanna bes

  • Sounds like Chuck Schuldiner.

  • Matt's 1st part of the solo on this song sounds In Flames influenced.

  • There are three kinds of trivium fans.

    The one's who love every album, the one's who hate everything except for Ascendancy and Ember To Inferno and the one's who are saying that the new and the old stuff is shit (means: shogun and ember to inferno).

  • Agreed. Ascendancy (the best) just had more melodical riffs (??), which I love. Shogun's simply beautiful, and Crusade wasn't my taste. (Too much Metallica-like. Only digged Conflagration and Detonation)

  • wtf ! Corey's face @ 1:23 ? ! LOLZ ! ! ! !

  • Wow, they've come a long way since this. This was the issue of Guitar World that introduced me to them like five years ago, and honestly, this was pretty sloppy for them. Cool to see how far they've come, though.

  • Matt heafy is damn hella good looking in short hair

  • Are his nails painted black?

  • Could these guys suck any worse? My answer is no. And my answer is right.

  • @Vistauser89 I'm totally sure you better dude

  • Fuck how young do they look there aye.

  • @lainahtan13 18yo?

  • Corey should go back to this Jackson.

  • @xValbosMacabrex He uses Jackson now.....

  • Is it just me or do corey's finger look extremely small?

  • holy shit....any idea what amps/distortion/OD they're using???

  • @ViGMetal, i agree, all their albums are good.

  • what band is Matt's shirt of?

  • @KINGOFKINGS611 Don't quote me on this but I think its the Misfits. Kind of hard to tell.

  • This is one of their easiest solos.

  • @JoshOfDarkness I think Down From The Sky is their easiest, good song though

  • these guys are unreal love em most inspiring band ive ever heard i have learned alot by listening to these guys and i can't wait for them to come back to michigan \m/ for life

  • I love this solo!... and almost all there other ones too :-D

  • Matt and Corey are beast!

    TRIVIUM RULES!!!

  • yes i can play it ;)

  • got any tips for playing like trivium? you use tabs or figure it out yourself

  • i use both but i only play now since 2years so the most of it i learn by tabs

  • its easy to play trivium to a point.

    riff wise its pretty hard to learn the notes but once you have that you need a steady picking hand to play the palm mutes also a good fret hand would help alot because you will be playing super fast

  • Matts a fuckin beast

  • haha awesome

  • @bonfirejovi alot of people use the neck pickup not because it's easier but because it sounds better for certain things.

  • i love alexi, we'll bodom in total.

    butt Trivium i prefer, you cant really compare

    there a genre of metal

    and there all amazing guitarests

  • No every album is fucking awesome!!!!!!

    I even have the rare anthem (we are fire) ep!!!!

  • i guess i'm the only one who loves EVERY ALBUM from Triv.

    Ember was their first - but it was a great one if you look at other ones.

    Ascendancy was their second and in my honest opinion their second best.

    Crusade was their third and i really loved that ''vibe'' of the album, let's hear anthem, entrance of the conflagration, the crusade....

    and then there is SHOGUN.

    The most meaningful Album in TODAYS Metalhistory. Really fuckin sick album with a whole lot of THRASH METAL in it

  • @ViGMetal I have and love all their albums too cant wait to see them in march.

  • @METALLICAM4N hey i might be seeing them in march too. what gig are u going to? im probs goin to the one in oxford as im 14 and u have to be 16 for the london gig :/

  • @KILLA1BUNNY Im going to the one in Inverness so nope

  • @ViGMetal WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO crusade may not have been good as the others but the instrumentals were amazing! i love the style to ember to inferno, especially burn the eye, requiem and when all light dies :P

  • fugue (a revelation) fo the win!!!

  • @ViGMetal I'm write there with you, dude.

  • @ViGMetal i strongly agree i love allllllll of their albums as well, cant wait for the next perfect album from them

  • @ViGMetal Not really I'm love them all too :)

    I can't wait for the next one

  • @ViGMetal I think Ascendancy's their best.

  • @ViGMetal I reckon that the new album is going to be their best judging on what i've heard from it already , but i agree with you , all the albums are amazing for different reasons

  • @sully93 i'm going to be very dissapointed if everything's like shattering the skies above. Their newer style hasn't grown on me yet. but you have to keep in mind that it's just one song that's made for god of war. i don't think everything's about that kinda theme - atleast hopefully :D.. But we'll see in several months.

  • @ViGMetal i luv thm all aswell :D

  • @ViGMetal

    I love ALL of their songs too(L)

  • @ViGMetal nah bro your not the only one i think every trivium song is a work of genius

  • @ViGMetal uh im in love with every single song of theirs so......

  • @ViGMetal I agree so much dude. Definately, Shogun was the best, then Ascendancy, Embers, and then Crusade which was still an great album

  • @ViGMetal word up. Shogun ftw, best album since I started to listen to them thanks to it and the most thrashy of them all, which I prefer. The Crusade and Ascendancy are on a tie: Crusade is better overall musicall wise, while Ascendancy is a hell of alot more brutal. Ember To Inferno is like meh with 3 good songs tbh

  • @ViGMetal You're not alone. Trivium is my favorite band.

  • @ViGMetal i love all of their stuff too, and they have an EP that they released before ember to inferno

  • @ViGMetal dude, i have to you something.....your not alone...im right there with you...but ascendency is my favorite album with shogun in a close second then ember then the crusade.

  • @supremelybeast6 here's my list

    1.EMBERTOINFERNOASCENDANCYCRUS­ADESHOGUN

    2. ... there are only number 1. albums from them.

  • @ViGMetal Your not the only one I listen to them every fucking day, I have not gotten tired of Trivium and ive been listening to them since like 06 and 2010 Trivium is fucking insane

  • @Dionis8534 finally some dude's who aren't bitchin' about the crusade. :D Trivium from 05' until death i guess ;)

  • @ViGMetal you are not alone dude, i like every album of trivium also but shogun was the best

  • @ViGMetal no, you're not the only one... i completely agree with you

  • @ViGMetal Dude, ALL of Trivium is Amazing. ALL OF IT! Shogun is an orgasm to my ears. Best album right there.

  • @ViGMetal And I didn't mean to say that you didn't say all of Trivium is amazing. I'm simply stating that it all really is amazing. I'm agreeing with you. =)

  • @ViGMetal nopeee, you forgot mee ^^

  • @ViGMetal Dude, I love'em all too.

  • @ViGMetal i like them all too

  • @ViGMetal I hate to say this, but their never going to live up to shogon again. That was just a perfect album.

  • @itachisshadow00 I find that funny as Trivium stated themselves that Shogun was a "Weak" album for them.

  • @BloodReverence lol yeah uh no they didn't. Shogun is pretty much their masterpiece so far. They said The Crusade was a weak album.

  • @ViGMetal you're not the only person who loves every album by trivium i love absolutely everything by anyone so long as it aint rap bullshit

  • @ViGMetal lmao at most meaningful album

  • @ViGMetal im with ya too! triv kiks ass!

  • yeah dude man trivium albums are really great esp. shogun! sometimes its like there guitars are telling a story when they playin harmony its FUKIN SIIIICK!!!

  • @ViGMetal they are all totally fuckin awesomee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!! YES! FINALLY SOMEONE WHO LIKES IT ALL!!! everyone usually hates on crusade idk y its fuckin beasttt!!!! so are all of em!

  • @renegademan631 it's because people are pissed that Trivium wrote an 80's metal-type album that was better than any of the albums written by Metallica, so they hate on it. But all of their fans know that so theris nothing to worry about. Metal is making a comeback with the most talented musician(s) ever, and Trivium is one of them.

  • @ViGMetal i totaly agree with you.appart from the bit about the crusade. Even trivium have said that that album was a mistake. it wasn't a trivium album. where was the screaming? where was the face-melting melody on the other 3 albums?

    And damn it i'm a hardcore trivium fan, i've seen them many times, i've got signed albums. i've met them, and own multiple copies of every album. EVEN THE CRUSADE. hell i even own the Anthem single. but there is just no getting away from it, the crusade was crap.

  • @Blackmark456 They never would have said any album of theirs was a mistake. You scream fanboys need to stop bitching.

  • @Retsiness Close enough, ever seen paolo talk about the crusade? i sugest you look it up.

    How can you call me a "scream fanboy" yeah i like the screaming, but i also love the singing....the crusade was crap, not only because there was no screming...it just had a crappy feel to it. And how am i bitchin? please tell me how? i'd realy just love to know.

  • @Blackmark456 You're a screamo fanboy cause you dont like the crusade because it doesnt having screaming and you think its bad album cause your ignorant. You obviously know nothing about musicianship or just music in general. If you did you would know that The Crusade was a very unique album and they changed their sound and became a better band because of it. Shogun would have never happened without the crusade which is their best album so far.

  • @Retsiness You still never told me how i'm bitching...or do you just not have an answer for that stupid comment?

    i'm not one of these ignorant fans who only listens to screamo...for the most part i hate bands that do nothing but scream. It's the MUSICAL CONTENT of the crusade that is crap. Fair enough Shogun wouldnt be the same unless they had made the crusade first, only an idiot would think otherwise.

    Fact is though, you're making assumptions about me, when you don't even know who i am.

  • @Blackmark456 verses and chorus A.S.W.Sear, All of the parts wears theres singing in T.W.C.T.U. Apart, main riff,chorus and solo to tread, verses and chorus to Content, The entire song the Rising and The entire song the Crusade doesnt have heart. There are too many solos on that album but the music and lyrics are what make that album great.

  • @Retsiness Well, the lyrics TBH are a bit crap. The solo's all just sound like shredfest with no purpose. take the solo from detonation for example and compare it to something ridiculously melodic with alot of feel, like say the solo from the decieved or declaration. Yeah they have the shred and the sweep picking, but at it's hear those solo's have a helluvalot more feel that the slayer-shredfest that are most of the solo's on the crusade.

    Don't get me wrong the crusade has some great riffs.

  • @Retsiness For instance, BTD ha ssome awesome riffs and a great bass solo, TTF has a great opening riff but falls apart straight after than with a half assed attempt at being thrashy. The only song i genuinly like all the way through from the crusade is entrance.

    Also, could you try making sence in you're posts, use good grammar and maby i'll be able to understand what you mean propperly.

    And sadness will sear is boring, TWCTUA is just a soppy cheesefest that i can't listen to.

  • @Blackmark456 Now your just looking at the negative and ignoring what i just said and What are my mom dude? You must be retarded if couldnt read that. It was basically a list. The Crusade is great just like all Trivium records. Any and all you critics, find another a band/album/song/riff exc. that is bad to criticize cause you havent found one in a band called Trivium.

  • @Retsiness "What are my mom dude?"....please, tell me what you mean by this. Ever heard of G-R-A-M-M-A-R? I can do engloish, me....

    Hey, each to they're own...if you genuinely loved the crusade, then good for you....but i genuinely cringed through 80% of it, and i'm a HUGE trivium fan, have been since Ember to Inferno. Oppinions are oppinons, but i'd be lying if i said that i thought The Crusade was a good album.

    Nothing has NO faults, even trivium cant get away from that.

  • @Blackmark456 But TBH i don't care a HUGE ammount, becase they returned with a great album after it. And now they're stong as ever.

    Every band has one crap album. It's true...name a band..and i'll tell you at least one album by them that was under par.

  • @Blackmark456 But TBH i don't care a HUGE ammount, becase they returned with a great album after it. And now they're stong as ever.

    Every band has one crap album. It's true...name a band..and i'll tell you at least one album by them that was under par. well every band that has been going for along time, the only real exception i can find right now is Alter Bridge, who have 3 AMAZING albums....but they're bound to hit a low at some point. I'll eat my hat if they dont.

  • @Blackmark456 Nevermind...All bands have flaws?...Agreed. But you sound stupid if you say the Crusade sucks. It wasnt THAT much different from the other albums.

  • @Retsiness Yes, all bands have flaws and one of triviums is the crusade, along with paolo, he's such a prick to meet in real life. Maby i just met him on a moany day :p

    The Crusade was VASTLY different from the other trivium albums, they completely changed the tone of the song writing and borrowed too much from other bands rather than staying true to what they were best at. Trivium are not a "thrash" band, persay....and they proved this well by debuting the crusade.....it's just not as good.

  • @Blackmark456 Because its not as Thrashy as the other albums its not good?...Wow your ignorant. Progression is what makes bands better.

  • @Retsiness See, you missed my point...i dont know how. THE CRUSADE was thrashy. The other albums we're more melodic and had purpose to them. If any of us are being ignorant it's yourself, you prove it everytime i prove you wrong or you can't answer my comments with a sensible retort.

    I've been nice, now shut up and listen to me.

    THE CRUSADE WAS NOT A GOOD ALBUM, I AM NOT BEING IGNORANT, YOU ARE JUST NOT LISTNING TO ME.

  • @Blackmark456 Its funny you think that cause Corey said in an Interview that Ascendancy was more of a thrash album,cause it was and your once again ignoring that entire list of facts about the crusade. Now you think your relevant cause you said shut up and started yelling through a keyboard. Im trying to educate you in the many ways that your wrong but think your right while not trying to be too much of a dick about. But im guessing youll never learn.

  • @Retsiness Realy, you think that ascendancy is a trash album? well....now lets look at how you would define 'thrash' id say thrash can be summed up by 4 albums...master of puppets, among the living, reign in blood and rust in peace...or at least...metallica, slayer, megadeth and anthrax. saying that ascendancy is closer to that kind of sound than the crusade is is just ludacris. yeah it's fast and heavy but it's not got that thrashy feel to it.

    I was always relivant, not only now.

  • @Retsiness Answer some of the comments i've made rather than just skirting around them, trying to seem knowlageable...you sidestep and dont answer whats being said.

    Get yourself well versed in some more of the roots of modern day metal, and then come and debate about what something is and is not.

  • @Blackmark456 I answered your comments by telling you what is the truth. If anything your a hypocrite for ignoring that truth which is The Crusade is a great album and your foolish in thinking otherwise, especially since your a Trivium fan.

  • @Retsiness So tell me then, whats a hippocrite? because your using the word VERY out of context. The crusade was gash, no denying it.

  • @Blackmark456 Dude no matter how many ways you want to spin it, or how many descriptive words you want to use(Gash...seriously?) your just in denial of my stronger argument now.

  • @Retsiness Gash, thats a well know scottish derogitary word.

    You still never told me how i was a hippocrite....

    How am i in denial of your'stronger' argument...if anything, i've given you MY reasons and you've just tryed to bluff your way around staying in the argument...you cant answer my claims, you skirt around my questions or statements...TBH your pretty crap at proving a point.

    The crusade wasn't up to scratch with triviums other albums, i cant LISTEN to it all the way through.

  • @Blackmark456 Your a hypocrite because your saying all im doing is ignoring what your saying when I made a list of every song off the Crusade and explained why there great and all you said is I cant listen to some songs which is a matter of taste. Thats why i have the stronger argument and have been tired of repeating myself.

  • @Retsiness And actualy, i know a fair bit about music, you know having played guitar for almost 7 years, drums for 8, piano for 5 and cello for 3.

    So i know that The crusade was very technicaly "showy" but had no "core" to it. It was an empty album, showing only the very mathsy metal side of trivium.

    DON'T MAKE ASUMPTIONS ABOUT A PERSON BEFORE YOU START TALKING CRAP ABOUT THEM.

    Have a good day.

  • @Blackmark456 umm dude every trivium album has been a bit showy. The Crusade more than others, but still it was just some parts. You can't say the chorus to ignition, the entire end of Detonation, the solo section of Entrance, The entire song the Anthem(we are the fire), pre-chorus and chorus of Unrepentant, Solo section and bridge of B. the Dragon,

  • @ThrashDeth17 Im a huge Thrash Metal fan too. Listen to To The Rats you cant say thats not a Thrash Metal song.

  • @mitomen2000

    they're better than ever now... although i love ascendancy and ember to inferno ...

  • Haha, coreys face at 0:52, haha...

  • @MetalHeadEmperor at 52 it kinda sounds like through truggle from as i lay dying lol

  • haha, very true.. haha! :)

  • Coreys like "seriously?"

  • jeez ppl... how many times do ppl have answer that comment i left so fuckin long ago? (id guess too many?) i know they left dean. it was a simple question and i dont follow trivium like some freak w/ no life but i still think it was the best choice they made to leave dean
