Unfortunately they pussed out, or just ran out of creative steam, and then went back to their safety zone with In Waves. Lost all interest after that.
Whatever, it's not like I don't have Protest the Hero to give me the same thing.

haha, well, fair enough. You wouldn't have liked the album after In Waves anyhow, Vengeance Falls. The singer for Disturbed produced the album and you can hear it in every song on the album. Why they ever let a guy in an inferior band produce an album for them, is something beyond me. I loved Shogun, probably my favorite album from Trivium. I think it displayed the same things you thought it did. But then In Waves came out, and it was a full stop, no growth. Vengeance Falls was the same deal.
I'm interested in the album they are allegedly self producing. I haven't read anything on if that was true, the self producing bit. But they should stop trying to fit a mold so they're always relevant. They were going to great places with Shogun. I want more of that, but with progression in their sound.
I've always been a scrooge when it comes to Protest The Hero. Something about them pisses me off.
