The new-age metal group Trivium will be revisiting their early days with a re-release of their evasive debut album Ember to Inferno, to include four different formats and available December 2nd. The formats include a standard CD containing original tracklist, Standard Vinyl LP on 2 transparent burnt orange patterned 12″ vinyl LPs, a deluxe CD including original track list plus 13 bonus tracks of early demos known by die-hards as “The Red Demo”, “The Blue Demo” and “The Yellow Demo”, and, saving the best for last, a deluxe vinyl box set including 5 12″ LPs: the two vinyls you can find in the original vinyl LP box plus three vinyls containing tracks from the “Red Demo”, “Blue Demo”, and “Yellow Demo”, all transparent and colored accordingly.
The band’s objective in partnering with 5B Artist Management and Cooking with Vinyl to reissue their 2003 album Ember to Inferno is to revisit and revive their early days and bring their original music to the ears of fans who maybe hopped on the train a little later. As the band has opened for unmistakable names like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Metallica throughout their career, their fan base has grown exponentially since their conception in Orlando Florida back in 2000. “As a kid, I always said the ‘goal’ was to be in a massive metal band. I don’t think I actually knew what it would mean to have fans in different parts of the world, and I still can’t believe people care so much that they actually want to hear the music that pre-dates our Roadrunner years. To this day, I am still completely blown away that people are singing words to songs I wrote when I was 16 years old. It’s an amazing feeling”, shared Matt Heafy, the band’s loyal vocalist and guitarist.
The band is currently on tour for their latest album Silence in the Snow, which they released in October of last year and topped three U.S. Billboards Top Rock Albums within a week of its debut.
