Trivium Release New Song, Amongst The Shadows & The Stones
But that's not all, Trivium are also doing a virtual in-store signing session
Waiting for the new Trivium album? Yeah. Wishing it was here now? Yeah. Well KABLAMMO – the Florida metal titans have just released a new song from it. Take THAT!
Amongst The Shadows & The Stones – the latest cut taken from their new What The Dead Men Say album, out April 24 via Roadrunner – is staggeringly heavy. In fact, the band reckon it's among the heaviest stuff they've ever written.
"The inspiration for the song started when a war history website that I follow posted a story of a soldier visiting the graves of his fallen comrades and he described it as walking 'amongst the shadows and the stones," says guitarist Corey Beaulieu.
"The first thing I came up with was 'The ghosts of war will haunt my bones, amongst the shadows and the stones,' which then inspired the music for the song. But the lyrical subject became something totally different as we got deeper into the songwriting, but that was the spark. Now Amongst The Shadows & The Stones captures elements of the heaviest material Trivium has done across our entire catalogue."
Have a listen and judge for yourself…
The band have also announced that, with lockdown stopping anyone actually going to stuff, they will be hosting an online In Store. Fans who pre-order their copy of the album can have it signed by the band, who will be doing the in-store on April 27 at 8PM BST, live on Trivium.org.
