Ford. The follow-up to 2008's

A video update on the
recording process from
TRIVIUM guitarist Corey
Beaulieu can be viewed below.
In a July 2010 interview with
the WMHB 89.7 FM metal
radio show "Metal
Mutilation", Beaulieu stated
about the band's new
material, "We've been
concentrating more on
[making] more to-the-point,
catchier songs without going
off too much — there's no
seven- or eight-minute songs
on this one. There's a lot of
really cool riffs and a lot of
really cool parts, and,
obviously, there's guitar solos
all over the place. It doesn't
sound like 'Shogun', but it
sounds like TRIVIUM. It's a got
a different feel than 'Shogun'
— it's a lot more in your face
and heavier and faster. It kind
of balances out everything —
we've got four or five songs
that are all screaming, we've
got a couple of songs that are
all singing, and huge songs
that are kind of a mix — kind
of 'Acendancy' [2005] kind of
vocal style, [with both]
screaming and singing, so
there's a good variety, which
makes it really interesting to
listen to, because each song
has its own thing going on, so
they all stand out really well
and fit together, too. It's got a
good balance of everything,
but the energy and the
intensity is just a lot more up
there. I guess if you compare
it to anything as far as being
aggressive, it's probably more
towards 'Ascendancy' than
anything else."
