Trivium: new album 'What the Dead Men Say' out in April

Florida-based metallers Trivium will release their ninth album, 'What the Dead Men Say', on April 24 via Roadrunner Records. The LP will be the follow-up to 'The Sin and the Sentence', which came out in October 2017. That effort marked the band's first release with drummer Alex Bent, who joined Trivium in 2016.

Track listing:
1. IX
2. What the Dead Men Say
3. Catastrophist
4. Amongst the Shadows and the Stones
5. Bleed into Me
6. The Defiant
7. Sickness unto You
8. Scattering the Ashes
9. Bending the Arc to Fear
10. The Ones We Leave Behind

"'What the Dead Men Say' is everything that is Trivium," explains guitarist/vocalist Matt Heafy. "On this album, one can hear the proper ingredients of past, present, and future Trivium. The Trivium sound is having everything the band does — on one album."

"With the new album, we took what worked on the 'The Sin and the Sentence' and dialed it all up to 11," says bassist Paolo Gregoletto.

Guitarist Corey Beaulieu echoes that sentiment, saying: "We wanted to build on the foundation that we established with the last album. The record has all the elements that are Trivium — along with all of us wanting to keep pushing ourselves creatively. This led to a highly-inspired and fast-paced writing and recording process that really captures the energy of the band."
