Great way to judge a band that.
Joe
You bumped a 2.5 year old thread to say that? 
Who gives a shit "where they are in life," I don't judge the worth of my music by how palatable it is to the masses, nor do I have any desire to make a living from my it so I won't have to compromise it to put food on the table. Of course, maybe Trivium does write music only for themselves but are lucky enough to have a legion of people who enjoy it in its original state, and in that case more power to 'em, and of course I'd love to be able to say the same - but if it comes down to either having a few devoted fans of stuff I can stand 100% behind or changing it for the sake of making more money (AKA selling out), I know which side I'm on (and thus why I'm getting a college degree in Urban Planning so music can remain a passionate hobby rather than a livelihood). Fuck fame and fortune at the cost of one's soul IMO.

go marcus! but your wrong aboot one thing, trivium sucks period lol its pretty much everyone who knows anything about real music, or productions opinion lol.
but if your into "natural production" lol
i respect the engineers and producers associated with this band, but I think that they (trivium) are big time gay. like super, incredibly, turbo, ultra, mega, GAY.

... yes, the music isn't real and they're gay? thats honestly the best argument you have? its been "too metalcore, too Metallica, too much screaming, too much singing.." now "ooohh noes they lied!!!", god forbid shit changes during recording/production. but they're Gay? British Steel must automatically be horrible. What is it about their albums you really don't like? If you don't enjoy the music that's cool, but seriously... sorry for fuming but this unprovoked Trivium-bashing b/c you think they aren't tr00 or gay is annoying me (probably shouldn't, but it does).
I enjoy them.. I guess I don't know real metal or anything about production. good, fuck it.

Warning: We are rapidly entering a situation common on internet forums less cultured, less understanding, less civilised than this one; the situation where two or more parties try to argue their subjective opinions as if they were objective truth. One (or more) contributor(s) to this thread believe, with no coercion of any shape or form, that Trivium are an entertaining, capable metal band, pure of intent and true of purpose. Conversely, one (or more) contributor(s) to this thread believe that Trivium are, in fact, a ramshackle collection of egocentric, grandstanding assholes, and an entity capable of no more noble pursuit than ear-raping each and every person that ever once believed in the integrity of the thrash metal movement, and a gathering of degenerates deserving of no less a punishment than eating an acre of dicks.
Neither of these camps are wrong.
A compromise can be found.
Surely, all people, of every creed, colour and nation can agree on a half-way point.
Wouldn't we all be sufficiently entertained by the sight of Trivium being force-fed an acre of dicks that we could count their time on this Earth good? Can we not, as one people, get behind the notion that seeing Matt Heafy choking on ten-inch phalluses, their throbbing lengths pulsing as they force their way down his testicle-stuffed throat, his eyes bugging as one uncircumcised cock after another struggles its way down his already schlong-scraped oesophagus, would provide a warm fuzzy glow to the observer not unlike that which you get when watching a Youtube video of a tiger hugging the human that raised it from a cub?
Would that not forgive all of Trivium's musical misdeeds?
Come on, people - let's find some common ground. And force-feed Trivium an acre of dicks.|
NB: I actually don't mind Trivium. I just thought this post may raise some chuckles.

Wow....
What a HOMO post dude. Sorry.
Why would you NEKROTHREAD this topic just to add a fruitcake, Confucious, fortune cookie message of fail????
On topic though I've been trying to "sell out" for a while now. It's harder than it sounds.

I really hate Trivium, I had to suffer through them when I went to see Maiden on the AMOLOD tour (yet the rest of the tour had Gamma Ray and Helloween?). They just represent everything that is wrong with the industry at the moment, as Bill Hicks quite rightly said - "When did mediocrity and banality become a good image"?

I would quote this text to my sig if it wasn't so HUGE
Glad to know I did, indeed, raise some chuckles - when I get a comedic image in mind, I tend to run with it - hence the bloated nature of the post.
Yeah, that was great dude, excellent post and excellent points (I'm being totally serious, btw, no sarcasm) - but where did you come from?

I've been lurking on this forum for a few years now, and I used to post a few of my mixes every now and then, but generally I'm too embarrassed to contribute since everyone else here is way more talented/knowledgeable than me.
Here's how it should be.
Like the music you like. If someone doesn't like them, boo hoo. Music is all a matter of opinion. I myself like Trivium. I moderate their fanclubs forum, know the guys quite well. But am I one to suck up and say they can do no wrong? hell no. They got some shitty fucking songs and di some horrible career moves, but to each their own. I'll like the tracks I like and leave it at that. I could give a shit if someone hates them. Its not like I'm a member of Trivium. People should stop getting so offended by people that dont like the music they do. It's why we have different bands and genres, not everyone likes the same music. You want music Nazis?
Seriously. I won't cut on someone for liking a certain band you shouldn't because its their taste. People gotta stop coming into a thread to argue. You can say "nope don't like 'em" . Or hell, yes you can say you think they are gay. But does that need to spark an ignorant obsessed argument from the two of the most oposite sides of the spectrum? The so called "haters" and the "fanboy"s? No! No one wants to see that. Just ....
fuck. I hate when people judge me because I like Trivium. I get the questions "Oh you like shitty metalcore emo fags!" and it's like come on man. Let's not go down that road.
