Watch as Corey Beaulieu of Trivium takes you through the intro riff to "Like Light to the Flies" in this episode of Behind The Riff.
About Jackson:
Jackson began back in the late 1970s, when heavy music experienced a flamboyant and virtuosic resurgence in popularity and a small Southern California guitar repair shop became the epicenter of a new level of shred-approved excellence. Ever since then, Jackson guitars have been universally lauded as the metal guitars; the shred machines-highly original high-performance instruments of distinctive style and formidable substance. From metal’s chart-topping peaks to its darkest recesses, for discerning guitarists all over the globe, Jackson is the only way to go.

That riff defines a whole era of metal during that time period.

[@MrDillon08]

This riff literally changed my life and made me want to play metal.

[@raptorrsr5817]

corey is an absolute god of not just playing but writing as well!

[@SlyHikari03]

I miss riffs like these.
So much fun to play.

[@TheSunMoon]

A classic Trivium song!!

[@kingpants8764]

I think every kid has made up that riff on his own only to find out that thousands of metal core bands are playing it too hahahaha

[@shroomzie]

haha tru i must’ve played this exact riff 1000x before i even discovered this song LOL

[@Danlovestrivium]

Those who run, will be burned! Those who run, WILL. BE. BUUUUURRRRRNED!!!

[@RanjanKumar-bu7ws]

He is actually a guitar god

[@Michael15_25]

And can scream like a mfer. Not many guitarists as talented as him do backup screaming vocals much less as great as he does it

[@kaiw1182]

Can’t believe that song is 20 years old already 💀

[@jbess6505]

This song got Affleck lit up in a parking lot.

[@evanjones3638]

My first metal song I learned after master of puppets....I soent all of sixth grade learning master and then the next year I practiced this until my parents told me I couldn't play the lead anymore. Amazing band that had so much influence to me growing up 😊

[@andysixx86]

Such a badass guitarist

[@anchlo]

The first song I learned how to play cuz I thought that riff was sick

[@falricthesleeping9717]

Matt has a different story, IDK it's a cool riff but how both of them say that this riff was theirs.... IDK anyhow, always happy to see corey talk about guitars and riffs

[@daoyang223]

cowrite you mean?

[@mr.sidecomments9278]

the main riff of Like Light To The Flies sounds nothing more than a recycled variation of the pre-chorus for When All Light Dies (the "It's so beautiful" part) which was a song composed before Corey was in the band so I'll probably believe Matt's story

[@falricthesleeping9717]

@@mr.sidecomments9278 when all light dies is in harmonic minor, and bass notes are changing in that riff, sure it's all downpicked and first couple notes are same, but I can't label this as a recycled riff from that song

[@falricthesleeping9717]

@@daoyang223 yeah maybe, or maybe a running joke

[@jaylay3935]

I noticed that just the other day.. when all light dies has the same riff l

[@Diabolical1337]

Thank you for posting this, really interesting! 🤘🤘

[@FRANKMSXDEMOSFORYOUANDME]

Brutal, thanks for sharing, awesome work

[@mhdibm7515]

Is every legendary song a warm up riff?😬

[@AlmanJanyshev]

Yep, for example Walk was born like that.

[@mr.sidecomments9278]

don't forget! the syncopated riffs that Meshuggah's known for was born out of a warmup

[@ELGATOLANCASTER]

Nice Repentance hoodie.
Glass and the boys. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@legioncrossroads]

Epic riff!!!

[@nickshepley2566]

Whoa I didn’t know this!

[@ianspeckmaier9565]

Literally 10 seconds of playing, 1:30 of him talking about how it was a warmup jam, and then "That's how you play it, thanks for watching"?
Love Corey, but the editor of this video shouldn't have let this get made like this.

[@fredericadda]

He's tuned in Drop something, no?

[@diegodoesmusic]

Drop D

[@sn00k24]

The album version is in Drop D but I think here and live they play drop C#

[@Gfy661]

Drop D on record, Drop C# live and here.

[@joeyjones9041]

Drop D

[@tfwnoyandere]

originally written in drop c# too

[@ImOnUToob]

OopsI need to relearn it all down picked…. I’ve been up-strumming the a string notes

[@pupstop1]

was hoping he would pronounce his last name. Never sure how it is said

[@wardkdouglas]

"bull-ee-yay"
