Florida-based band Trivium will unveil its ninth studio album, What The Dead Men Say, on April 24th. The LP will follow up 2017's The Sin And The Sentence and has been preceded by a newly released single and video called “Catastrophist.”
Guitarist and singer Matt Heafy said about the disc, “What The Dead Men Say is everything that is Trivium. On this album, one can hear the proper ingredients of past, present, and future Trivium. The Trivium sound is having everything the band does — on one album.”
Bassist Paolo Gregoletto walked us through how the band writes new songs: “Usually someone will bring in the idea, whether it's a riff, whether it's a full idea or song structure, but we bring it together in the rehearsal spot and that's kind of where we fine tune things, that's where we'll change stuff, and we've just learned the more that we have time to work on it amongst ourselves, the better the outcome usually is and it's very collaborative between all of us.”
Trivium scored its first Top 10 hit at rock radio with “Until The World Goes Cold,” the third single from its 2015 LP Silence In The Snow. Cracking the Top 10 was a career high for the group, which made its recording debut in 2003.
