THE NEW TRIVIUM SONG IS GOOD, WE SWEAR

We still haven’t heard Shogun, the new Trvium album, but we have heard the first three tracks – and they slay. Anyone who felt let down by The Crusade should totally have their faith in the band renewed – it seems like the band really stepped it up for this one.

The opening track from Shogun (and my personal favorite of the three songs we’ve heard), “Kirisute Gomen,” will be avail for free download (for 24 hours only, Slipknot-style) on the Roadrunner Records website starting at midnight on July 31 (That’s midnight EST – e.g., NYC time. Just wanted to make that clear, lest I ever be accused of being geo-centric again). The song is worth your time, I promise. I mean, what do you have to lose? It’s FREE, right?

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go try and find out what the fuck “Kirisute Gomen” means.
