With their headline performance at this year’s Bloodstock Festival looming in just a few hours, metalcore powerhouses Trivium have just released a brand new single, Bury Me With My Screams! The new single is taken from their forthcoming three track EP, Struck Dead.
Bury Me With My Screams is brimming with old school thrash metal energy, soaring guitar melodies and packing a suitably punishing breakdown. The bands’ latest single gives fans a taste of what’s to come when Struck Dead lands on October 31st.
In true Trivium fashion, the band aren’t keeping their latest track tucked away until October either. With it’s live debut scheduled to take place during their set this Friday night at Bloodstock before giving it a thorough road test on their run of European festival appearances this month.
Recorded at the bands Hanger Studio in Florida, Struck Dead promises to bring a little bit of Ascendancy’s DNA back to the bands sound too. With Bassist Paolo Gregoletto having this to say about the sessions that brought the bands latest release to bear:
In 2023, we decided it was finally time to take the next step with The Hangar space we purchased — it was time to turn it into a full studio. We brought in designer Roger D’Arcy, thanks to an introduction from Mark Lewis, and set out on a year-long build. While construction was underway, we were deep in rehearsals for The Poisoned Ascendancy Tour, celebrating Ascendancy’s 20th anniversary. What started as an idea to release one single during the tour quickly grew into two, then three, as we kept writing while we were waiting for the build-out to be completed.
During that time, the energy of revisiting Ascendancy started bleeding into these new songs. Matt poured a lot of his personal struggles from the past year into the music, and we used the writing process as a cathartic release. Those sessions evolved into a three-song EP that we’re incredibly proud of, and we can’t wait to debut ‘Bury Me With My Screams’ live at Bloodstock Open Air Festival.
Bury Me With My Screams is available now on all major digital streaming platforms. Struck Dead is also available to pre-save ahead of it’s release on October 31st.
