Anyone actually kind of want to hear new material from them? I'm actually looking forward to hear new material from them since they have a grindcore drummer now. (Also, call me gay because I do somewhat like their older music, and Shogun is also somewhat alright in my books.)
I do enjoy Ascendancy a lot....I still listen to it quite often. One of my guilty pleasures ;) I didn't like their last two albums though....so I don't have any form of expectations towards this one.
triviums ghey bro you obviously are svcker ov the m41nst34mz c0ck.
nah ascendancy was pretty good, this videos alright but its definetely nothing special... very overdone thrashy/metalcore/melodic death metal stuff,its nothing innovative.
Metal isn't innovative anymore. Using the same instruments the Beatles did, with different techniques.
EDIT
And I consider that drum thing to be more innovation in materials technology, and acoustics, rather than innovation in Music, and Music theory. Africans used poly rhythms just like we do today, but they used those skin drums.

Innovation is a different technique of the same thing pretty much. Using something completely different is an invention not an innovation.
There is some amazing mathcore, progressive, tech that shows amazing skill.
The fact that things like that can be produced with primary the same instruments is innovation in my eyes.
Of course it's not innovative at all, and I realize Trivium isn't the best, but like Olivier said, there's somethings about the old Trivium that I like, I don't quite know why, just enjoy the sound. They seem to be going back to more of the old Trivium sound with a little influence from how they were on Shogun. But I just wonder if they'll actually change at all with the influence from the new drummer.
Would be nice to have some blast beats and such in Triviums older work. Although, hate to say it, one of my favorite Trivium songs is from their least-favored album, The Crusade.

Personally I really like the sound of Crusade, and the topics the songs cover and such.
Here's something I found... Video with the new drummer, Incorporating some of his playing style with blast beats and such in an older Trivium song from Ember to Inferno.
