i just watched the music video for Trivium - Gunshot To The Head. Matthew Heafy DOES have that Hetfield style with him... the way he holds his guitar, his physical gestures...

but he looks too 'jambu' for a metal frontman heheh... in fact, all of them look like some punk band members.

luckily they have excellent solos or else they'll sound like most metalcore bands. i might find this album spinning in my cd player for quite some time!

i read a few metal mags and they are labelling Trivium as the next Metallica if they release a few more albums like the one they have now. The hype on this band is quite high currently but i think Metallica is quite different compared to Trivium (well for one i dun think Hetfiedl ever sang growling type of vocals in their songs) but music wise, the dual-solos in Trivium i dun think was there in Metallica tunes

yup, Matthew got hedfield tyle..look how he hold the spectrum, shirt... watch also pull harder of the string of your matyr...one thing i dont their song arrangement is
repeated verse/bridge/chorus..too long i guess..but i like their music so far..i ordi got both theur album, ember to inferno n ascendacy...

anybudy here got impiety songs or knoe where to download?

err... the rule says:

1) No distribution of copyrighted materials within the forum (e.g. offering of burning services).
2) No direct download links to copyrighted material (direct/torrent/etc.).

well they're still young... if they keep to the music probably they'll get almost as big as metallica when they're 30++

anyway to me, their music has a nice balance between oldschool thrash/melodic metal and new age metal sound. plus they have the 'metal' image right.

how does ember to inferno sound like?

currently listen to ascendacy..i cant listen more than 1 album in one time, i'll listen that album everyday for a week maybe or more, so senang nk blend with my ears...i'll try to review ember to inferno later....

hah same with me man! i have to listen to an album repeatedly for my brain to register the sound, arrangement, good parts etc...

i remember the cassette days where you can't easily skip tracks. i would listen to the whole album with the cassette inlay in my hands to read the lyrics. i'd do that constantly till the songs get stuck in my head.

and i enjoyed the music even more at that time...

hahah, very true, i did that last time too, now with broadband and a huge amount of albums, i dun think i can remember how half the songs in my winamp playlist go but nevertheless i am still discovering new music everyday ... have take it slowly........

modD,
that exactly what i did when i was in form 2 or 3. instead of revising those boring subject, i was excel in surgical/medical terminology thanks to band such as carcass, pungent stench and disharmonic orchestra

and metallica helps in enriching my swearing vocabularies

hahahaha, though i can remember well the verse, chorus etc..i still can remember the lyrics, dtas why i was unable to sing while jamming wif my fren..

and i really believe that listening to metal from an early age has helped my English a lot! just imagine a primary schoolkid reading the lyrics to And Justice For All...

a medical student friend of mine once told me that Ken Owen of Carcass was working in a hospital in the heydays of Carcass... i can't sing their songs. too tongue-twisting hehe

anyone knows what the new band name of former carcass dude? i cant remember who..but i think its jeff walker...or...tak ingat lah..after carcass they formed blackstar...baru-baru ni i saw they or 1 of the guy formed a rock band..anyone?
anyone heard of lamb of god? any opinions?

i don't know if you're referring to Arch Enemy, but it was formed by ex-Carcass guitarist Michael Amott

Michael Amott formed a metal band, Arch Enemy together with his brother Chris and a side band Spiritual Beggar
Bill Steer formed a stoner rock band named Freebird
Jeff Walker, Ken Owen and Carlo Regadas formed Black Star later changed to Blackstar Rising
last i heard blackstar was now defunct as Owen suffer brain cancer/ haemorrhage

Arch Enemy is pretty cool, they have a woman as their lead singer, who, suprisingly, as least to me, can growl pretty good.

Try songs, like End Of The Line, We Will Rise and Enemy Within.

Old Arch Enemy trumps all over newer Arch Enemy simply because of Johan's thunderous vocals. The Angela era brought a more 'commercialized' sound, the guitars weren't as downtuned as the first 3 albums while the quality of songs lingers between above average and downright blehhh.

I only know Aces High from the old Arch Enemy...and Ares isn't working...

ah yes freebird!! thanks dude! have u heard any of their songs?

it's firebird. sorry my bad...
