Rock ‘N’ Load / The Rig Rundown Chat With Corey From Trivium @ Bloodstock 2025

TRIVIUM ANNOUNCE STRUCK DEAD EP AND SHARE NEW SINGLE + VIDEO “BURY ME WITH MY SCREAMS”

STRUCK DEAD EP IS DUE OUT OCTOBER 31st

Rock ‘N’ Load / The Rig Rundown caught up with Corey from Trivium @ Bloodstock 2025

GRAMMY-nominated heavyweights TRIVIUM — vocalist/guitarist Matthew K. Heafy; guitarist Corey Beaulieu; bassist Paolo Gregoletto; and drummer Alex Bent — are thrilled to announce the release of their forthcoming, three-song EP STRUCK DEAD. It arrives on 31st October via longtime label Roadrunner.

While it may only be three songs in length, in typical TRIVIUM fashion, it packs a powerhouse punch, thanks to masterful riffing and the dual-style vocal prowess the band has built its nearly three-decade reputation on! It was produced by TRIVIUM and recorded with Mark Lewis at the band’s Hangar Studios in Orlando, Florida. It was mixed and mastered by Josh Wilbur.

Today, the band also shares the video for the first single “Bury Me With My Screams.” The song premiered via Heafy’s “Chaos Hour” show on Sirius XM Liquid Metal and will be debuted live in the band’s headline set at Bloodstock Open Air Festival this Friday night.

“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,” says Gregoletto. “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.”

He continues, “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.”

ABOUT TRIVIUM:

TRIVIUM’s critically acclaimed tenth album In The Court Of The Dragon arrived in 2021. The band and album were praised by and featured in mainstream outlets like The New York Times, NPR, Forbes, Billboard, TechCrunch, and Kotaku, as well as Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, Rock Sound, Guitar World, Revolver, Alternative Press, and more. They released the now-canonical album Ascendancy in 2005. It was recognized as Kerrang!’s “Album of the Year,” achieved a gold certification in the UK, and eclipsed sales of 500,000 worldwide. Metal Hammer placed it in the Top 15 of “The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of the 21st Century.” It ignited a string of six consecutive Top 25 debuts on the Billboard Top 200 and five straight Top 3 debuts on the Top Hard Rock Albums Chart, culminating on 2017’s benchmark The Sin And The Sentence. That album elevated the group’s total stream tally past a quarter-of-a-billion.

Additionally, “Betrayer” received a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best Metal Performance.” Unanimous acclaim followed from Decibel, Loudwire, Ultimate Guitar, MetalSucks, and Metal Hammer, who dubbed them, “quite simply one of the best bands in modern metal.” 2020 brought LP What The Dead Men Say. The album was produced by TRIVIUM and Josh Wilbur and debuted at #35 on the Billboard Top 200; at #2 on the Top Current Albums Chart, and at #3 on both the Hard Rock Albums Chart and Top Rock Albums Chart. They have performed alongside Metallica, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and many others, and graced the main stages of Download, Bloodstock, KNOTFEST, and beyond.
