Matthew Kiichi Heafy, the Japanese-American musician best known as the guitarist and lead vocalist for the Grammy-nominated heavy metal band TRIVIUM, has released the "Vengeance Falls" acoustic EP, featuring reworked versions of five songs from the group's 2013 album of the same name. You can now listen to it in the YouTube clip below. Featured songs: 00:00 Strife 04:16 At The End of This War 08:33 Through Blood And Dirt And Bone 13:00 Wake (The End Is Nigh) 18:28 Losing My Religion According to Heafy, there will be an acoustic EP for every record except 2020's "What The Dead Men Say". Heafy is also an avid gamer who steadily built his Twitch profile to massive success in the past few years. His Twitch efforts have been featured by Microsoft, TechCrunch, Forbes and beyond. He is also a practitioner of Brazilian jiu-jitsu and a food connoisseur. Heafy streams daily on his Twitch channel "matthewkheafy," displaying the behind-the-scenes work it takes to stay in shape to play guitars and do vocals. He plays TRIVIUM songs by request and every day is a new show made by the fans, for the fans. Some of Heafy's notable accomplishments include hosting the first-ever full metal gaming village at Wacken Open Air, competing against Ninja in the Twitch Rivals Summer Skirmish, competing and celebrating the opening of Full Sail's esports arena, creating Shroud's theme song, being Streamlab's top streamer merch seller of all time, being in the top 100 most subscribed to channels on Twitch, leading the charge as the pioneer of music streaming on Twitch (also partnering with Twitch to make the official how-to guides on streaming music on Twitch's help page), and co-founding the Metal & Honey Foundation, which supports the Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for children. 100% of the proceeds directly benefit the music therapy program. Heafy also recently appeared on "The Drew Barrymore Show", where he surprised a fan and gifted him with a guitar. TRIVIUM's ninth full-length album, "What The Dead Men Say", is available now via Roadrunner Records.
