Inspiration completes a circle throughout time. When the new
generation understands the traditions of the forefathers, it can
properly ascend. However, this ritual doesn't happen overnight. Time,
patience, and endless work remain prerequisites--especially in music.
Trivium--Matt Heafy [vocals, guitar], Corey Beaulieu [guitar] and
Paolo Gregoletto [bass]--actually began building the blueprint for
their seventh full-length album, Silence in the Snow [Roadrunner
Records], back in 2007. They spent the next eight years diligently
progressing and evolving, eventually becoming equipped with the wisdom
to fully architect this body of work in 2015. The genesis of the
record's title track dates back to a 2007 run supporting Heaven and
Hell in Japan, marking the first step of this journey. "When I watched
them live, it was something that really spoke to me, especially the
song 'Heaven and Hell'," recalls Matt. "I'd never heard metal
summarized so well like that. Afterwards, I came up with 'Silence in
the Snow.' We loved the song, but it just didn't fit with the music we
were making at the time. The reason was, perhaps, we weren't ready for
it. We foreshadowed our destiny back then, and we've finally grown
into the song. It required massive musical growth, and we're ready
now.""Every time we would do a record, someone would bring up 'Silence
in the Snow," continues Paolo. "It was in the back of our minds, but
it wasn't the right time. It came out of that moment, seeing a classic
band feel so modern and relevant with real passion. It fit with where
we wanted to go today. We revisited the song, and it was the moment
we got the clear cut vision for this album. It corralled all of our
ideas together and sent us on the path. We wanted to hone in on making
big metal anthems. Each track is distinct and matters with real
dynamics. It's everything we wanted to do."In order to achieve this
goal, Trivium once again challenged themselves. They researched the
bands who inspired their influences--Metallica, Pantera, Megadeth and
Slayer --and immersed themselves in the work of Iron Maiden, Ozzy
Osbourne, Dio, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, and Rainbow. "We
definitely looked back to a lot of classic records and used them for
inspiration," adds Paolo. "We knew we had to step up our game in the
songwriting. We didn't want to simply write music, but put together a
cohesive collection from start-to-finish. That's the real magic of
those albums."Simultaneously, after an introduction by M. Shadows from
Avenged Sevenfold, Matt began taking vocal lessons regularly with
renowned coach Ron Anderson. The frontman expanded his already
rigorous schedule with intense Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training as well as
guitar lessons with everything fueling this creative evolution. In
order to capture the desired sound, they enlisted Michael "Elvis"
Baskette [Slash, Alter Bridge] for production and Mat Madiro for drums
and hit the studio in early 2015."Being a metal head with a great
sense of songwriting and production, Elvis was the perfect fit," says
Matt. "We've always had a balance of melody and technicality. He
understood that and fostered its growth."Sonically, the band also
broke the mold. Rather, than mixing extremely loud, they nodded to the
sonic quality of records such as Back In Black where the mix is
quieter. When you turn it up, it doesn't become distorted. Josh Wilbur
[Lamb of God, Gojira] got behind the board and helped them realize
this."We wanted to make sure it wasn't too loud and crushed like many
modern records are," Paolo goes on. "It had to be crystal clear and
preserve the layers. That was the big thing we picked up from those
classics. They sound so pristine. Making it so bold and big, the songs
come across how they're meant to, and you want to turn it
up."Following the cinematic, orchestral opener "Snofall" recorded by
legendary Emperor visionary Ihsahn, "Silence in the Snow" introduces
the album with succinct searing guitar gallop and a sweeping refrain
that's equally engaging and entrancing. "It's a rally for positivity,"
exclaims Matt. "It's a battle cry. The lyrics didn't change much since
2007, and this kicked everything off."At the same time, the first
single "Until The World Goes Cold" begins with an ominous intro before
adopting a hammering groove that subsides during the arena-size
chorus. "It's about the sacrifice we make," admits Matt. "Being in a
band isn't just about working at your craft and attempting to be the
best you can be musically. At times, you have to be away from your
loved ones, comforts, and the things that essentially make you who you
are. When you're striving for that dream, you can forget what you're
searching for and start to give up. You have to realign and continue
fighting for what you love and believe in.""We wanted a song that was
heavy at a slower pace," says Paolo. "It sounds even bigger that way.
It has a really strong theme."Meanwhile, "Pull Me From The Void"
delivers a dose of vibrant vitriol through a twisting lead and
expansive chant. "You should reach for impossible dreams and put
everything into something you love," Matt exclaims. "If you don't,
what's the point? I got inspired to do this at 12-years-old when I saw
Metallica's Live Shit: Binge & Purge. I wanted to reach that level,
and I'm not shying away from being honest about that.""Blind Leading
The Blind" pairs a lyrical solo with a slamming crescendo before
turning on the harmonious declaration, "Save yourself." "Sometimes, it
seems like we keep perpetuating the ugliness that we have towards one
another," he says. "I'm always hoping for a positive outcome. I'm
using the song as a call-to-action in order for people to question the
world around them, question the way things are, question who they
treat others, and not just be content to live in the norm and do as
they're told or expected. There are better ways to live life."Trivium
laid the foundation to reach this point with 2005's Ascendancy.
Eventually, that seminal album would move over 500,000 copies
worldwide. Throughout The Crusade [2006] and Shogun [2009], they would
play alongside everybody from Black Sabbath to Iron Maiden and
captivate crowds at Download Festival, OZZfest, and more. 2011's In
Waves marked their highest chart entry on the Billboard Top 200,
landing at #13, hitting #1 on Hard Rock chart, and selling 22,000
units first-week. Vengeance Falls would also go Top 15 in 2013 as the
group went on to play the main stage at 2014's Mayhem Festival
alongside Avenged Sevenfold and Korn. 2015 sees them co-headline with
Tremonti, headline Bloodstock in Europe, and perform on the main stage
at KNOTFEST. In the end, Trivium arrive with an album that has a power
to carry on that cycle of inspiration."Our band is about progression,"
concludes Paolo. "It's never been about a checklist to make a
quintessential Trivium record. We've been talking about making this
album for a while. It will lead us on to other things.""On a surface
level, I hope fans can have a good time listening to this," Matt
leaves off. "For those who dig deeper, I hope they find solace in the
music and they can be inspired to do something from the lyric. I said
everything I wanted to say here. It's all on the album."
