Trivium Explain New Album

05/29/2011
. (Gibson) During an appearance on a recent edition of the Metal Injection Livecast, Trivium guitarist/vocalist Matt Heafy stated about the band's forthcoming CD, "We've been writing this same record for a year and a half. We demoed it for eight months... [but] when we actually started the record, it took us about three months or so of tracking and it's gonna take maybe two months to mix, and Colin [Richardson, producer] and the team are working on that right now."

Even the artwork has been worked on for a year: "There's a bunch of different people involved with all the different stages of the art. But we're not releasing yet. We have everything, yes, but we can't give any of it out," Heafy said.

Above all, Heafy said everything will be new. "Nothing sounds like any of the other [records] at all, but with this record it sounds more like us than ever. 'Cause with the other records, you could go, 'OK, maybe this sounds like this kind of music' or 'This sounds like this kind of band,' or maybe 'It pulls from here or there,' whereas this is just definitive 'our' sound." more on this story
