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!
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
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 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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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!
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.
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!!
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.
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.
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.
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
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 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.
"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!!
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 UA-cam 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
Well thats different, If a band change because they get more popular, yeah then thats a valid reason for dislikiing them. But the band remains the same, they get more popular, and then you start disliking them just because they become more popular, thats ridiculous. I know some people who hate mainstream music, just because its mainstream! Thats really closed minded. Because there are some brilliant mainstream bands/artists out there.
funny is me as a slipknot and trivium fan ... i mean i fucking love slipknot ... i loved them in their early days and i love them now the big shit about the metal community is not that they turn on their bands getting big... they drag down any other band they dont even know into a pile of shit just because they r successful... best example is slipknot ... many ppl in the scene dont respect what they achieved and what this band is all about... and i know for sure trivium does respect slipknot
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?
he's right we live in this country where ppl are close minded. and listen to it cuz its "hot" although I kinda respect the ppl who stick to underground cuz they are the voices of the new generation but they should still like the bands even if they go "mainsteam" can't spell CRAP without RAP! CHEERS!
Yeah i met him too..cool, relaxed guy and he isn't a virtuoso but he is VERY fluid player...reminds me of Dave Murray (murray is better but STILL). FINALLY AN ACTUAL MUSICIAN!!
not being a fan of a7x i still have respect for them... i guess they play alot around with their image... all in all it still is one other good example... i mean even trivium gets hate and i dont understand that at all... not 1 bit :D they r like us.. metalheads that made their dream come true...
okay, so they've covered metallica... metallica are a wicked band, one of the legends of the metal scene, but now, Trivium, who have their own, DIFFERENT sound, have surpassed metallica. KEEP IT UP TRIVIUM! FUCKING EPIC MUSIC!
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
Thank you Matt! I look forward to Those days to come!

Lol avenged sevenfold suckkkkkkkk
He sounds really educated and that dude has a fast speech:D
Go Trivium!
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.
the world needs to be enlightened...hells yeah. Lets get those glory days back
Matt is talented for his age, and you can only wonder what he will be like in the future.
"Screaming can only go so far.."
Very True.
Absolute legend, simple as.
Matt's a great guy. This was a great interview..
matt heafy is THE greatest human being on this planet if everyone thought like him the world would be a better place!
Crusade and ascendancy are two of the greatest metal albums ever made!!! Shogun is awesome too.
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.
Ya they are my favorite band!!! Seen em live twice both times it was intense
Glad this showed up in my recommended today
He sure does, what a hero
here his hair is lovelyyy
Im not a Trivium fan, but they are doing a great job for metal future!
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
i've gain even much more respect for him wearing emperor shirt! xD
Wise words from Matt
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.
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
and its making progress! I've noticed that more and more people likes metal these days.
he is so right in what he says..
we need more ppl like u ... metalheads should stick together !
Great frontman - Lot's of respect
+danny binnington , they probably doesnt headline everyday but they are much higher on the festival bills than before.
Heafy looks good.
if only trivium was heaps more popular in Australia, actally, would be better if Metal dominated Australia, i'd die for that day.
Eternal glory to Trivium \m/

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.
@pillarsofserpents Errr, I'm no trivium fanboy, but...He's still a pretty humble guy.
yea everone has a secondary music style, mines punk rock, like NOFX and Pennywise but this is the real shit

hes really wise for a young guy :)
yeah man his tshirt is a emperor tshirt and its for the album wrath of the tyrant
Holy shit. Matt Heafy has a point.

Kudos to you for the Emperor shirt Matt
Well said matt
He makes a good point
this man. is my freakin idol.

A tall Asian.
A sign of the apocalypse.
@CORPSEGRINDER557
He said on an interview he was 12 when he joined
this is going to be one of the next big bands.. add them!
find PHOENIXCHILD on myspace
Agree. It's just stupid that people can't handle changes and bands are trying to find their own sound.
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.
Haters ganna hate c=.. Love this band, and their music
"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!!
matt
Trivium- Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr
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.

congrats mate. so can i.
Facts hey? so you think matt was going for the queen sound when creating in waves?
it's Emperor. black metal.
god hes gorgeous
Well thats different,

his dads irish makes me proud cause im irish:)
funny is me as a slipknot and trivium fan ... i mean i fucking love slipknot ... i loved them in their early days and i love them now
the big shit about the metal community is not that they turn on their bands getting big... they drag down any other band they dont even know into a pile of shit just because they r successful...
best example is slipknot ... many ppl in the scene dont respect what they achieved and what this band is all about... and i know for sure trivium does respect slipknot
Have you seen some Trivium video's on here? It's obvious Matt and the boys from Trivium play to have fun.
couldnt have put it better myself!!
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.
Back when his hair was badass
yea, me and my friends r in a metal band, but we do some sum 41 or blink 182 alot
whats the name of that song in the beggining....sounds nooiiiicccceeeeee
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?
Listen to this guy!!1
Well trivium are certainly bringing better music into the world :)
if they make seperate ways hardcore that would be soo bad ass!
I AGREE
he's right we live in this country where ppl are close minded. and listen to it cuz its "hot" although I kinda respect the ppl who stick to underground cuz they are the voices of the new generation but they should still like the bands even if they go "mainsteam" can't spell CRAP without RAP!
CHEERS!
Yeah i met him too..cool, relaxed guy and he isn't a virtuoso but he is VERY fluid player...reminds me of Dave Murray (murray is better but STILL). FINALLY AN ACTUAL MUSICIAN!!
what does matt says at 1:32 ? please tell me!!!
not being a fan of a7x i still have respect for them... i guess they play alot around with their image...
all in all it still is one other good example... i mean even trivium gets hate and i dont understand that at all... not 1 bit :D they r like us.. metalheads that made their dream come true...
Yeah, thats true
i wish hmv was more like that store. :)
holly shit he looks like Tom, from blink 182!!
great vid !
okay, so they've covered metallica... metallica are a wicked band, one of the legends of the metal scene, but now, Trivium, who have their own, DIFFERENT sound, have surpassed metallica. KEEP IT UP TRIVIUM! FUCKING EPIC MUSIC!
one day it will succeed.
Lol he didn't listen to classic metal until 6 months ago...what a n00b
@queenslander47 yeah they start to call them posers or their fans scene kids. jheeze the metal genre has been so divided these days its stupid.
yes he was 17
