Trivium
Dying In Your Arms

Roadrunner

WE SAY

Hats off to Roadrunner who're about to do it again, not only taking a band to the top of the rock scene but crossing them over too. Trivium have been on the cover of Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, Rock Sound and Total Guitar, and now they're on the Radio 1 playlist (highlighting how good and diverse Radio 1 is at the moment). They're a four piece from Orlando, Florida who are all in their early 20s. Their appropriately titled second album Ascendancy is already one of Roadrunner's fastest ever sellers, and it will be re- issued in the UK on March 20, taking it past gold. Their UK tour is sold out, including two nights at the London Astoria (March 15 and 16). Credible rock with proper melodies - why don't more bands do this?
