In the pantheon of modern heavy metal, few bands have demonstrated the tenacity, evolution, and raw musical proficiency of Orlando, Florida’s Trivium. Formed in 1999, the band—fronted by the tirelessly prolific Matt Heafy—has navigated the treacherous waters of metalcore, thrash, progressive metal, and even hard rock. They have been hailed as "The Future of Metal" (Metal Hammer) and scorned by purists during their experimental phases, yet they have emerged as undisputed titans of the 21st century.
Label: Roadrunner Records
Key Tracks: "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr," "A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation," "Dying in Your Arms" (the ballad hit).
