I wasn't sure where to put this one and so I went under their album description which has the first two as Death Metal...if you don't feel that Trivium is Death Metal then feel free to move this one.

Now on to my question:  What is it that most people dislike about Trivium?  I've heard them referred to as a Metallica tribute band, a few metal sites I go on for album reviews don't have them rated with an average over 70% (usually below 60% ).  I haven't listened to a Trivium album, but wanted to know what do you dislike (or like) about them.

Not sure I would classify Trivium as death, although early on there were "some" elements in their music.  To me they are more metalcore/hardcore.  Personally, I don't think they deserve as much crap as they get.  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.

Good band.  Nothing spectacular.  I like the last 2 CD's, although I don't listen to them much.  Drummer is real good.  Matt Heafy can be a little arrogant but he's got a decent voice for the music they play.  If I were him though I would avoid screaming too much.

Woah woah woah!!!!!!!

Put this in the metalcore forum. Trivium is not death or thrash

I think they are terrible. They're just a metalcore band ripping off some thrash riffs. Vocals are terrible, musicianship is nowhere near as good as people make it out to be, songwriting is pretty crappy (aside from ripping off loads of riffs from all sorts of bands) etc etc.

What you used to love now, you're gonna adore. With Charmin Ultra, less is more. Cha Cha Cha, Charmin.

My gut told me they were Metalcore, but it isn't in their genre on the site so I put it here.  Sorry about that.

You have not rated this band

Their first two albums are listed as "Death" as well.
