They sound better.

Why do they sound better?

Why do they sound better?

Well first of all I vastly prefer the sound of old school heavy metal to whatever the fuck Trivium is supposed to be.
I love Mark's gruff, iconic vocal style and I love the way he writes epic (in the romantic sense) compositions.

They're like Kansas meets Cirith Ungol or something.

gruff, iconic vocal style

So you like homeless, tone deaf dudes singing bland lyrics? Got it.

Was that a joke or an actual criticism of Mark the Shark?

 

[EchoForever]

trivium fucking sucks
im sure its a good album if you like that sort of thing

 

[CiG]

Triggium.

 

[EspaDa]

They aren't that bad. Definitely better than abominations like Korn or Slipknot.

 

[The Ozzman]

trivium fucking sucks

How many song a did you listen to to make that determination? 'Enough' is not a valid answer.

 

[EchoForever]

Shogun and this recent one
metalcore isnt really my thing

by "fucking suck" i mean "i dont like it" because my vocabulary is lacking

What is this mongoloid view that you have to listen to most if not all of a band's discography to decide they suck? I doubt you've even listened to enough Manilla Road to meet your own retarded standards of judgement.

Challenge accepted, faggot:



Is that enough for you? That averages 3 times per track listened. How many times have you listened to Trivium tracks?

This implies I go back to listen to Manilla Road to, you know, see if I actually changed my mind about it. Do people here do the same for Trivium, Devildriver or Killswitch Engage? Probably not.

Certain bands get certain treatment depending on kvlt status here. It's been apparent since I joined the board.

 

[CiG]

Or, most people are able to form opinions on a band based on listening to a few songs, and that's fine because most bands have a cohesive sound at the very least for each album. I've heard enough Trivium to know they do nothing for me and I don't need to waste hours upon hours listening to a band's music to come to that conclusion.

So unless Trivium plan to go from what they did and currently do, to sounding like Attacker or Ride the Lightning, I really don't see why your initial triggered question about judging an album by one song is valid in any way whatsoever. Only a tard can't understand something that basic.

Hey @CASSETTEISGOD what was the album/demo/ep that had the truck on the cover that you told me to check out? I assume it's something like On Through the Night Def Leppard.
