Whats wrong with the solo in Into the Mouth of Hell? I agree "Down The Sky" xD has a pretty weak solo though, lol.

Its a weak solo for Trivium, but it is really fun to play, I agree on that.

I think in a lesson of DFTS from Matt and Corey they explained it was meant to be simple and "the whole goal was to play something that repeated". So it was intentionally made that way.

QUOTEMatt: Whats weird about that solo is, when I first heard that riff, actually.. when we all first heard that riff,
we thought it was the strangest riff we'd ever heard before. Paolo came with that elephant riff, and we had
no idea it would ever work for the band. We're laughing are asses off, we're like.. this is never gonna work.
Corey: The when someone mentioned playing a solo over it, I was like what the fuck are you gonna play over that?
Matt: Actually had to transpose that into a key because just to do chromatically or whatever the hell just sounded
to weird, so it actually is in a key, so the scale is like... duh de duh duh, duh duh deh du... Uh what is that..
duh duh duh deh duh.. Is that chromatic, am I an idiot? duh de duh duh, duh duh deh du... duh de duh duh, duh duh deh du...
It just skips this one note, It just skips the E so.. So we had no idea what the fuck to do for this solo, and um I was asking, I was
asking Fig and Nick and one of them was just like, why don't you just follow the riff for a bit, Then Nick was like, you need to do
some kind of crazy thing that just keeps repeating a sextuplet pattern that just goes on, and you harmonize and make it
really strange, but its easy. So this solo was a matter of making patterns, not really music.
Corey: Hahahaha..

"Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis"- both guitar and bass "Down From the Sky" is cool too, but my all-time favorite is Torn
