One thing I do hate is now that there is death and black metal and stuff, people act like if you have the SLIGHTEST bit of catchiness or melody that you are somehow a sellout. Take A7X for example- kick ass groove metal that became hugely successful- I always hear people comparing them to TRUE METAL bands like Pantera, saying how A7X are posers blah blah blah, meanwhile Vinnie Paul jams 'Tera tunes on stage with them and Rex went to their show and told them ""You guys are waving the flag now"
I think I just fell in love with him, after only 2 min of hearing him speak. Today's "radio" bands, the lack of expressive and distinctive vocals, how once a band is no longer "underground" they basically become pariahs... I couldn't have said any of it better myself. And the fact it's coming from someone my age makes it 100x better.
Almost makes me proud to hear him say that he wanted to be in one of those bands headlining arenas everyday and such, and now, they're headlining arenas every day. Good work boys!
You are very fortunate, I have met them twice but the venues were 19+ they signed In Waves for me (All 4 guys), I didn't get into the venue though but they were so fucking friendly, Corey gave me a screaming lesson, who the hell does that on such a busy schedule? They are amazing to their fans
Absolutely LOVE Matt Heafy. It's just not fair that he's so insanely fit AND can do the guitar shit AND sing like a perdy angel when he tries. Love Trivium x
Thanks man, totally, and aside just from Maggots, metalheads in general of both genders and all ages should be cohesive and overall an army of free thinkers and free spirits. I listen to everything from Sabbath to Axewound, the OLDEST to NEWEST stuff in metal. Thrash and Glam, Rap metal, Groove Metal, Death Metal, Black Metal, Doom Metal, Classic Metal, its all metal and should all be celebrated. Especially Slipknot, they just blew everything away heavy-wise and to be so heavy yet listenable!
Yes, they are very professional live, they are also respectful to the fans in such a major way, I have to see them live! Corey said they are demoing their new album already, and it should come out in the 3rd quarter of 2013, which is what Matt said.
trivium didnt sell out, they just moved away from the metalcore sounds towards the 80's thrash sound, which is what they wanted to do from the beggining, but matt couldnt sing so he screamed instead.
I remember seeing Trivium in 2004 at “Harpos” in Detroit opening for Children Of Bodom & Amon Amarth was first then Trivium then “COB” & I’d never heard of Trivium & they were only 18/19yrs old & just crushed it.
Thats why they toured together! \m/ Slipknot have achieved huge success, they packed Madison Square Garden with metalheads, thats monumental. And for a MODERN metal band to do that? Thats just raising the bar.
trivium= 1 of best bands of all time, cos they evolved, they actually tried new things that workd an sounds amazing,and they experimenting, nd it sounds nothing like metallica at all, theyr an amzing band, cant wait for thier nu album
If you like a band, you like them for their music... Whether they are mainstream or not. Thats so stupid that people stop liking bands, simply because they become more popular.
I have matt and corey's autographs I hung it on a picture frame and put it on my wall. I didn't meet them I had to convince someone who was going to meet them to get one for me.
he's not really coming off as a douche to me, he's just being brutally honest, he's even admitted for him screaming can only go so far. i like how he talks about how he feels about music fans, i mean we're all music fans but according to some people there's a "use-by date" on every band.
i use genres as a way of like organizing it, cuz sleep isnt the same as megadeth, but they're both metal. when people start arguing about like "progressive-death-stoner-power-core" our those like tiny ones, but like thrash amd death and power i think are just good ways of organising, and describing a band to someone who hasnt heard of it
Despite what many people who are stuck in the past think, music has always been somewhat dominated by radio. You don't think there were weekly throw-away songs back in the 80's, 70's, 60's, or even the 50's?
"This guy can scream better than the guy next door can scream" he has a point here i dont get that death metal olny screaming something that nobody understands and people say that they are good singers ,ofcourse the song has to have screams but not all of the song and Trivium just do the style that is screaming+fantastic guitar shit+good vocals Go Trivium!!
It's ridiculous how young of a band they are but they are so professional live, probably the most professional band I have seen live besides megadeth and Lacuna Coil. All 3 of those bands are the best to see live.
dude in the crusade they do really sound like metallica, i mean if they aint copyin them they're wearin there influences on their sleeves. lol. another thing thats bad for a musician to do is to completely reinvent himself after he has gotten big, im supprised trivium have kept any of their old fans, they changed loads, not only no screaming but the way they write there songs has changed and a completely different style is there, cant wait for the new album woo!!
i've been to an actual concert and they kick some ass! my fav trivium song is becomeing the dragon but they are all good. and it's true that matt say fuck every 2 seconds on stage.
I thought the exact same. Matt Stonie, Matt Heafy and Sibila Extreme Vocal Center (his name is also Matt lol) they look a lot like each other sometimes they even sound like each other. I thought I was the only one who thinks Matt Stonie looks like Matt Heafy.
@@falsenoteofficial4629 did you check the 3rd Matt I talked about. He looks more similar in his older videos because he changed his hairstyle recently.
@@thereaper_xxx lol notifications for RUclips are activated and I’m just chillin. Def never expected anyone to see this comment from a year ago on such an old video much less respond to it. I had totally forgotten all about this
Actually some of you should realize Matt is trying to bring that old metal back but in a modern way and he's trying to say an example remember when Metallica made the black album,load,reload,and st.anger some of you fans call them sell outs and then when they made death magnetic you guys wanna comeback and cheer for their music he's saying if you're a true fan of that band stick with them even if an album does not go the way you want it don't go bashing them for that particular album
1:31 so where is it Matt? Because I DID IT and it's metal as fuck! lol, no idea they wanted to do that. If any of you want to hear my Metal cover of separate ways, visit me =P
Everything he said is true, as soon as a band gets big the fans act like they they are somehow sellouts. Fucking stupid. Trivium is fucking fantastic The Crusade is possibly the greatest thrash metal album ever made, god it is such a fucking masterpiece, all of Trivium's albums are.

He's a BABY in this video. Omg lol
Matt Heafy is my hero! :P

The Song At The End is: Trivium- Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr

most talented 23 year old in the world
ember to inferno was released when he was 17, and he wrote that kickass stuff with 15/16/17 who knows
Absolutely LOVE Matt Heafy.
It's just not fair that he's so insanely fit AND can do the guitar shit AND sing like a perdy angel when he tries.
Love Trivium x

He sounds really educated and that dude has a fast speech:D
Go Trivium!

Matt is talented for his age, and you can only wonder what he will be like in the future.
Thank you Matt! I look forward to Those days to come!
"Screaming can only go so far.."
Very True.
the world needs to be enlightened...hells yeah. Lets get those glory days back
I remember seeing Trivium in 2004 at “Harpos” in Detroit opening for Children Of Bodom & Amon Amarth was first then Trivium then “COB” & I’d never heard of Trivium & they were only 18/19yrs old & just crushed it.
I'm glad they act real, most bands try to put on a hard act that they can't back up and have egos out of the roof.
Matt's a great guy. This was a great interview..
Ya they are my favorite band!!! Seen em live twice both times it was intense
here his hair is lovelyyy
Absolute legend, simple as.
Crusade and ascendancy are two of the greatest metal albums ever made!!! Shogun is awesome too.
Glad this showed up in my recommended today
matt heafy is THE greatest human being on this planet if everyone thought like him the world would be a better place!
Fuck yes \m/ ALL of Trivium's albums are, can't wait for the 2013 album!
i've gain even much more respect for him wearing emperor shirt! xD
Thats why they toured together! \m/ Slipknot have achieved huge success, they packed Madison Square Garden with metalheads, thats monumental. And for a MODERN metal band to do that? Thats just raising the bar.
Heafy looks good.
Wise words from Matt
Have you seen some Trivium video's on here? It's obvious Matt and the boys from Trivium play to have fun.
Im not a Trivium fan, but they are doing a great job for metal future!
if only trivium was heaps more popular in Australia, actally, would be better if Metal dominated Australia, i'd die for that day.
and its making progress! I've noticed that more and more people likes metal these days.
Awesome
trivium= 1 of best bands of all time, cos they evolved, they actually tried new things that workd an sounds amazing,and they experimenting, nd it sounds nothing like metallica at all, theyr an amzing band, cant wait for thier nu album
+danny binnington , they probably doesnt headline everyday but they are much higher on the festival bills than before.
If you like a band, you like them for their music... Whether they are mainstream or not. Thats so stupid that people stop liking bands, simply because they become more popular.
Facts hey? so you think matt was going for the queen sound when creating in waves?
A tall Asian.
A sign of the apocalypse.
he is so right in what he says..
I have matt and corey's autographs I hung it on a picture frame and put it on my wall. I didn't meet them I had to convince someone who was going to meet them to get one for me.
we need more ppl like u ... metalheads should stick together !
dude, he's wearing an Emperor t-shirt!
I've met tchort on the bus a few times, and after a green carnation show in 06 (too bad they split). cool guy.
whats the name of that song in the beggining....sounds nooiiiicccceeeeee
yeah man his tshirt is a emperor tshirt and its for the album wrath of the tyrant
he's not really coming off as a douche to me, he's just being brutally honest, he's even admitted for him screaming can only go so far. i like how he talks about how he feels about music fans, i mean we're all music fans but according to some people there's a "use-by date" on every band.
yea everone has a secondary music style, mines punk rock, like NOFX and Pennywise but this is the real shit
what does matt says at 1:32 ? please tell me!!!
i use genres as a way of like organizing it, cuz sleep isnt the same as megadeth, but they're both metal. when people start arguing about like "progressive-death-stoner-power-core" our those like tiny ones, but like thrash amd death and power i think are just good ways of organising, and describing a band to someone who hasnt heard of it
Isn't that the same place that jack black starts the intro vid to Brutal legend?
Great frontman - Lot's of respect

Eternal glory to Trivium \m/
Holy shit. Matt Heafy has a point.
Trivium- Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr
this is going to be one of the next big bands.. add them!
find PHOENIXCHILD on myspace
He makes a good point
dude trivium never downtune their guitars only to d or e and they are screaming again
@SlipknotMaggotsxx really you have him on fb? what kind of stuff does he say?
congrats mate. so can i.
hes really wise for a young guy :)
dude in the crusade they do really sound like metallica, i mean if they aint copyin them they're wearin there influences on their sleeves. lol. another thing thats bad for a musician to do is to completely reinvent himself after he has gotten big, im supprised trivium have kept any of their old fans, they changed loads, not only no screaming but the way they write there songs has changed and a completely different style is there, cant wait for the new album woo!!
what a badass.....Heafy is a beast
Thats sick \m/, if you ever meet them, you'll see how friendly the are its ridiculous, its like they have some sort of aura of niceness lol
Well said matt
Isn't that a Emperor T-shirt?
Did Matt say he listens to elton john?
@CORPSEGRINDER557
He said on an interview he was 12 when he joined
i've been to an actual concert and they kick some ass! my fav trivium song is becomeing the dragon but they are all good. and it's true that matt say fuck every 2 seconds on stage.
Haters ganna hate c=.. Love this band, and their music
Agree. It's just stupid that people can't handle changes and bands are trying to find their own sound.
Lol he didn't listen to classic metal until 6 months ago...what a n00b
Kudos to you for the Emperor shirt Matt
this man. is my freakin idol.
yes he was 17
Back when his hair was badass
Duuuuuuuude him and Matt Stoney look just fuckin alike. Matt Stoney is a food eating competitor. But it’s insane how much they look alike.
I thought the exact same. Matt Stonie, Matt Heafy and Sibila Extreme Vocal Center (his name is also Matt lol) they look a lot like each other sometimes they even sound like each other. I thought I was the only one who thinks Matt Stonie looks like Matt Heafy.

"Queen, like the most advanced song writing I've ever heard before."
it shows.
@ZombieEngage what are you trying to say?
couldnt have put it better myself!!
holly shit he looks like Tom, from blink 182!!
I know what he's saying is true, but, only to a point about being an underground band. Not all of us want to stay underground until we retire.
yea, me and my friends r in a metal band, but we do some sum 41 or blink 182 alot
@pirodood you sound like the tod 5? (raises hand)
Actually some of you should realize Matt is trying to bring that old metal back but in a modern way and he's trying to say an example remember when Metallica made the black album,load,reload,and st.anger some of you fans call them sell outs and then when they made death magnetic you guys wanna comeback and cheer for their music he's saying if you're a true fan of that band stick with them even if an album does not go the way you want it don't go bashing them for that particular album

I have the same Emperor shirt
his dads irish makes me proud cause im irish:)
anyone know what bands shirt he is wearing , tis sick

well you cant say he as sold out to the underground fans when he has had the plan since that clip
I also agree trivium kick ass and i dont think there anything like metallica and trivium can play guitar very good and matt heafy is my guitar inspiration.
it's Emperor. black metal.
