"Silence In The Snow", the new JonPaul Douglass-directed video from Florida metallers TRIVIUM, can be seen below. The song is the title track of the band's new album, which will be released on October 2 via Roadrunner Records.
Said TRIVIUM guitarist/vocalist Matt Heafy: "For those of you wondering, this song was written for [2008's] 'Shogun', and is basically almost the same as it was, so 'Shogun' fans rejoice; didn't like 'Shogun'? You may not dig this. But know that since I was 12, I wanted to be a great singer I screamed, because I couldn't sing. I am proud and excited to finally be able to do what I love the way I love."
He continued: "Don't love it? Our old stuff still exists. Love it? Awesome. I love both sides of you all regardless.
"Screaming is easy. Singing is hard. I've always been a fan of what's harder. If you love the old stuff — listen to the old stuff, it's still there and we still play it live."
Heafy added: "We always want to evolve and make what we want to make. You can't say many other bands can say that. They do what they think people want or are told to; we do what we want every time.
"I was and am only capable of the scream you heard on most our albums. I needed to spread my wings. You should know I am a massive fan of the underground and appreciate their craft. Shrieks wouldn't work in TRIVIUM."
TRIVIUM in May 2014 parted ways with drummer Nick Augusto due to personal differences. Stepping in for him on TRIVIUM's most recent dates was the band's drum tech, Mat Madiro.
Not the actual album artwork! That one is for the single :)
http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/trivium-silence-in-the-snow-album-details-revealed/ Is the real artwork the one at the bottom of this article?
I just updated it with the correct cover. The user who made the post accidentally used the Single cover instead of the Full Album cover.
@peterparker Was just about to update it myself – Thanks!
This song make me feel like batman xD
when did a hot asian female join Trivium?
Not that excited by the new single, still can’t wait for the full album, been fan since Ascendancy
New song released, “Blind Leading The Blind”
New video released for “Blind Leading The Blind”. The fake trivium band is getting it!!!!!!!!! Love the Heafy eye patch
New song dropped today on XM radio, link to file download: [Download link removed]
Expecting a great album from this guys. Until now the songs have been great.
Can’t wait for this album to drop!
Can’t wait! It should be leaking any day now
Someone please leak the album!!! 9 days until release… the last albums from Trivium always leaked like two weeks before… Where are the hackers??
Seriously! I’m eagerly awaiting this album to leak. They must’ve been more careful to who they sent out promo copies of the album to.
Orders were only beginning to ship to the furthest parts of the world over the last few days, so I’d imagine it will be leaking in the next 2 – 3 days.
And yeah the others leaked early, but they’ve got a lot of word of mouth out about this album already (arguably more than ‘In Waves’ and ‘Vengeance Falls’) so I reckon they held off sending it the promo copies out as many people as they did in previous years, possibly to contain the leaks also.
Let’s hope it leaks even sooner! The anticipation is killing me
I really hope it will actually leak :(
There’s no reason for it not to leak. We’re on the verge of having it leak for sure. About a week left! Should be leaking any day
I’m pretty consistent with checking Get Metal and Kingdom Leaks so once I’m able to find a leak I’ll post it here asap
I’m pretty consistent with checking Get Metal and Kingdom Leaks so once I’m able to find it I’ll post it here asap
Likewise! I’m literally checking all the sites to find it the second it leaks, haha!
CAN. NOT. WAIT. MUCH. LONGER.
Rejoice! Tomorrow at 12pm EST SIRIUSXM OCTANE is playing the entire album! :D
where’d you hear that info??
It’s all over Trivium’s official Twitter, check it out
We probably won’t get a great rip out of it, but at least it’s something.
CAN’T WAIT
finally, the entire weak waiting for the leak, now wainting the Special Edition.
week*
*weak
YAAASSSS
Serious, Not screaming ok… see no problem with that…
But this??? Vocal melodies are weak… somehow disappointed…. i´m a trully trivium fan since the very beginning, but i was hoping something really better… 5, 0 – rate!
Hey!
If anybody has this album on heavy rotation, I just transcribed the majority of the lyrics over on genius.com. I’m 95% sure they’re correct, but the 5% of soft consonants and muddy production can always leave a bit up to interpretation. I’d be grateful for any peer-review. Cheers, and great album!

Thank you, dude, do you think of doing the bonus tracks as well?
yeah probably! Those ones are not “about and about” just yet as far as I know… DM me otherwise and I’ll see what I can do.
pretty disappointed in this release, which is a shame as I am a long time Trivium fan.
worst Trivium album by far… and I thought their previous one was bad
Pretty sure this isn’t the real album. Only 3 songs in 320k and the others sound like through an 80’s phone. I think someone put the 3 single tracks together with some random band and released it as leaked.
The three previously released singles are 320k, as you said, but the others are all taken off of the album stream that was streamed on SiriusXM. The “real” album will be uploaded by someone when they receive their physical copy on Friday or shortly afterwards.
How is there no CD quality rip of this out yet? Pretty amazing.
This album is pretty good but not as the old ones, the lack os screaming is not the problem. I think Trivium tried to make a more classic metal approach here but is stil a very good album,
