That's a good point, it couldn't hurt to just try them once. The library has their second CD and I was thinking if I should even bother checking it out with the negativity they get in reviews and on forums.

Well, to be fair, I did give Trivisuck a chance (before they became so big). Hated them in 2003, still hate them now.

| While I will be giving Trivium a shot, your distain for them is pretty encouraging... ...towards me not giving them a chance that is.

As much as I hate them, you should still give them a listen. I usually like to hear a little of every band I despise, so that people can't say that I have never heard them.

| The two Trivium albums I have heard are very different from eachother. Ascendancy is pretty basic scream-then-sing metalcore though maybe with a bit better than average guitar work. The Crusade sounds like it's an attempt at a thrash tribute, but a lot of the choruses are pretty poppy. I'm not a huge fan of either album, but I don't totally hate them. The biggest surprise will come if you get a chance to check out Capharnaum. This is a really bad-ass technical death metal group with one album that the singer/guitarist from Trivium was in previously. I've been trying to find that CD for a reasonable price, but it's out of print.

The most recent CD The Crusade did have some Metallica-ish moments but I would not go so far as to say they ripped them off.I would! While they're no doubt good musicians, they're so unoriginal that it's sickening. I've read interviews where they say that their goal is to become the next Metallica. Apparently they're trying to do that by blatantly ripping them off. Just my opinion. EDIT: I would still check them out if I were you. The instrumental on The Crusade is pretty good.

Id give Trivium a shot. They arent that original but hey they have a decent live show. And hearing some killer guitar playing is always a good thing.
