Eighteen years and seven albums into a frustratingly inconsistent career, fans could be forgiven for approaching any new release from Trivium with a sense of caution. The set of era-defining anthems penned on 2005’s Ascendancy was followed up by the bloated, incoherent hotchpotch of styles heard on its follow-up, The Crusade . The progressive, full-throttle double-whammy of 2008’s Shogun and 2011’s In Waves was counteracted by the divisive trad plod of 2015’s Silence In The Snow . A pattern has emerged, and for all the promise the band have shown over the years, surely, it’s time, eight albums in, to stand up and define exactly who Trivium are. The opening title track of The Sin And The Sentence will surely set some fears to rest, exhibiting two of the previously mentioned strong points of the band’s past, namely the huge fist-pumping arena metal grandeur of Ascendancy with the complex, technical metallic riffing of Shogun working in tandem to exceptional effect. It’s six and a half minutes that perfectly sets the tone for what is to follow. Second track Beyond Oblivion again clocks in way past the five-minute mark, containing a massive gang vocal that will sound glorious from festival stages the world over and a wonderfully slippery beatdown to blast riff that drives the whole thing along. New drummer Alex Bent also deserves the first of many tips of the hat for providing some excellently octopus-limbed fills whilst keeping a Godzilla-stomp beat, as all good heavy metal should. It’s around this point that you might wonder whether Trivium have, quite sensibly, decided to cherrypick the best parts of their career and mash them all together, but the next two tracks – Other Worlds and Heart From Your Hate – are both the kind of Black Album -esque radio metal that they aimed for on The Crusade . This time, though, they hit the bullseye, with the latter being particularly stirring, full of Maiden-esque melodic leads and a chorus that clings onto your brain tighter than Theresa May clings on to power. Vocal hooks have always been integral to Trivium’s best moments, and one of the reasons for the success of The Sin And The Silence is having it performed by an on-form and on-fire Matt Heafy. Much of the run-up to the album focused on a return to his screamed vocals, and while it’s a thrill to hear that patented Heafy throat in full effect again, it’s worth pointing out that his clean vocals work superbly in tandem with them, particularly on the surprising and dynamic Betrayer . Each Trivium album has always had its own unique flavour, for better or worse, but The Sin And The Sentence is the first to meld every previous release into a ‘very best of Trivium’. From revisiting the modern tech metal heard on 2011’s In Waves (with an added touch of Pantera groove) in The SOFTWARE mark” ginger software uiphraseguid=“f6c8aa5d-a41e-4518-8cdd-cca943136e9c” ginger software uiphraseguid=“d6f6b30f- 0a3d-4141-8c8a-047142ce8d6e” Inside to the fact that, like Shogun , six of these 11 tracks clock in at over five minutes long, this sounds like a band determined to absorb all of their past and better it, showing once and for all who they are and what Trivium are: quite simply one of the best bands in modern metal. Trivium's track-by-track guide to The Sin And The Sentence. Trivium are releasing their eighth full-length The Sin And The Sentence on October 20, and it’s nothing short of a return to form, harking back to the heavier, more frenzied music we fell in love with on Ascendancy and In Waves . In the new issue of Metal Hammer (and on TeamRock+) we talk to frontman Matt Heafy and bassist Paolo Gregoletto about rediscovering their aggression and (more importantly) voice after Matt’s vocal surgery. To give a deeper understanding of the new record, and the band’s experiences that fed into it, we sat down with Matt and Paolo to go through The Sin And The Sentence track by track. The Sin And The Sentence. Paolo: “I was really interested in the culture online of people piling on people. I was trying to think of the culture we’re in now, but using the metaphor of the witch hunts, with the line: ‘Beware those who speaks in tongues for they may call your name’. Meaning, beware being a part of this culture, because it could be you on the receiving end of that at some point. You’re one tweet away from changing your life. Coming up with the title, The Sin And The Sentence , I had to riff, and I was on a plane, listening to it over and over and over again, and that phrase came into my head. It fit perfectly.” Beyond Oblivion. Paolo: “Corey was scrolling through his TV guide and he saw the phrase ‘Beyond Oblivion’ on a show, and wrote it down. I felt like I could make that work for a chorus, so I had to think of a theme of what that would be. I was listening to a bunch of podcasts about artificial intelligence, but they were comparing the idea of the coming technology to the atomic bomb – of how we created this incredibly immense, dangerous world- destructing thing in a moment when no one was really thinking of the implications. The song was viewing it from the perspective of someone that creates this sort of technology and comes to view it for what it is.” Other Worlds. Paolo: “The way the world’s been with all the elections, the climate, it feels like it’s ratcheted up out of nowhere over the last few years. Online, people you thought you knew well begin acting and doing things a certain way which really were uncharacteristic. And I kind of felt like that, being on Facebook. One day I woke up and I’m like, ‘Know what? Fuck this site, and fuck all these people. Why are we on here every day arguing with each other about shit?’ I was really angry so I deleted it. But it sat with me for a little bit, and that was sort of the inspiration of the song – feeling like you’re literally detached from people that you thought you know.” The Heart From Your Hate. Paolo: “I was reading up on this backstory about these Japanese American troops in World War II that had some of the most brutal battles, and meanwhile their family was in America in Japanese internment camps. The federal government rounded them up because they looked like the enemy that they were fighting. And I’m like, ‘This is insane to think about – these guys are literally dying and fighting for a country that’s locked up their families at home.’ The whole thing is, what does it take to prove you’re one of us. And that is powerful to us. If my family was locked up, I wouldn’t fight for the country, and that was really inspiring to read about those stories. But I didn’t think it would be easy to translate that, so we boiled it down further: what would it take for you not to hate someone? Would it take them dying for you, or their family dying, or being locked up? But I think the core of it is how hard it is to change people’s minds when they hate something, or when they hate someone .” Betrayer. Matt: “Paolo sent us all the song and I fell in love with it musically right away. It was the end of the tour, and I had just come out of a really bad ending of a really good friendship – someone I consider one of my really close friends, someone that I had helped in their time of need, they’ve helped me in my time of need. And I felt like I really was a good influence on this person that was addicted to bad things, doing bad things. And it completely soured when they turned their back on me and all of us, and I remember sitting on that flight and being so choked up with anger. I just put my headphones on, put the song on, and immediately started writing the lyrics. There’s a word in there, ‘creonte’. It’s a Brazilian-Portuguese word that’s passed around in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gyms, and it means ‘traitor’. It’s when someone was part of your gym, and they leave for an unknown reason, and join a rival gym.” The Wretchedness Inside.
