Trivium post masters of puppets cover[views:11259][posts:29]_______________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:06am - the_reverend ""] http://www.myspace.com/trivium |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:20am - SeedBassist ""] And Mastodon put there cover of "Orion" up: http://www.myspace.com/mastodon |
| __________________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:29am - DreamingInExile ""] Mastadon > Trivium and for as much as I don't care for trivium, musically their Master of Poopits cover is solid, but Matt's vocals are the weak link. the solo at 3:41 also feels very rushed, and lacks the smooth flowing legatto feel of the original |
| ______________________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:30am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] These assholes really want to destroy my opinion of the best metal album of all time, don't they? Fuck. Not gonna happen. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:34am - dreadkill ""] trivium and metallica are gay. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:35am - cdan nli ""] the Orion cover is pretty damn good...but what's the point? |
| __________________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:36am - DreamingInExile ""] they're for a Metallica tribute that Kerrang is putting out. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:43am - cdan nli ""] right, i just think its not a song that needs to be covered. its perfect as is. also, i withdraw my original comment, it sounds like a stoner jam. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 11:58am - brian_dc ""] haha...I like in the Trivium covers how obvious it is that for the Kirk Hamster solos that he's playing poorly on purpose. Say what you will about Trivium, I don't like em, but he can play a damn good lead and it's always obvious when a good guitarist is trying to play shitty. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 12:21pm - SteveOTB ""] I wonder who's going to cover "St.Anger". |

I didn't know that song was on Master Of Puppets...... anywho....everytime I listen to Trivium, I like 'em...that is....until Matt Heafy opens his mouth, that just kills it for me |

I know this cover album thing is useless and that Metallica is about as cool as the core of the earth but you are a liar. Though you did like Megadeth more than Metallica, which is fine in my book. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 1:29pm - CraigForACurse ""] yes brian you are correct, but you forget that i was 15 and didnt know my ass from my elbow. |

Oh, I totally agree with you on all the reasons you don't like them. I would say that they're musically talented, but I'd say only in terms of technical skill and pop song format writing. They couldn't be creative if they tried. |

| __________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 1:30pm - brian_dc ""] haha...Craig...I was a fan of nu-metal until I started playing guitar and hanging out with Toby...but I was 12 and didn't know any better. oh man...that felt like admitting to fucking a squirrel. |

| _____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 1:33pm - SeedBassist ""] I love how people come up with excuses with why they used to enjoy Metallica. I'm not ashamed of it....I still enjoy listening to the first 5 Metallica albums....I even like a few songs off of Load....and I honestly don't give a shit about what anybody says |

No arguement there...although i got free tickets to see them back in october of 2004...front row at the fleet center....and they werent' that bad live |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 1:38pm - Sacreligion ""] everyone's right about the vocals...bahaha they nailed the music though |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 3:03pm - anonymous ""] i don't trivium's bass on the song it ruins it... and i don't like the effect on the vocals it sounds like japanesse anime music... the instuments are good. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 3:07pm - Sacreligion ""] if they had changed any of the music to make it their own they would've ruined it...they probably felt that doing the music note-for-note was a worthy way of showing respect |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 25,2006 3:20pm - dreadkill ""] i hate how the world has a hard-on for trivium. they're nothing special. |
