This book is the world’s first biography on Trivium.
The four members of Florida-based metal phenomenon Trivium have shaken the entire world of heavy metal since their inception in 2000 – yet this group of regular kids from Orlando had to work harder than most to achieve recognition at all.
The group spewed forth at a high school talent contest and, after performing a number of low-key gigs at parties and small venues over two years, the quartet honed their metallic skills, playing thrash metal classics in rehearsal while gradually developing their own sound on the road.
Soon, Trivium recorded their first demo and the four-piece dispatched their songs with such mature craft and flashy interplay that there was no chance they would remain on an independent label for long - Roadrunner records were the lucky company to receive a signed contract and they helped push Trivium beyond underground status, making their second album Ascendancy a worldwide best-seller. Trivium are widely touted as ‘the next Metallica’ and this status as rock music’s newest mega-band makes this book a must-read for metal fans.
