The crusade is just amazing, from begining to end you cannot beat it for variety of riffs, vocals, and drums
the tracklisting is perfect and i love the harmonies within the songs themselves
100% fuckin metal

Hey.. I made a reply a couple of months ago bout how i dont lyk the crusade. But wow, it grew on me! I cant stop listenin to it! There is only one word to describe this album and that is that it is truley BRILLIANT!!!
Not one song on here I dont lyk!
If trivium releases another album lyk this, they are on their way to being BIGGER n BETTER than matts idol, James Hetfield (METALLICA)!!!!

I agree! The albums playlist just takes you on a ride!
The harmonies and guitar solo's are just killer! I listen to some songs more than most, but each song has it's own appeal!
I love it. Lots of ppl I know hated it coz it was'nt like Ascendancy!

Ignition-Awesome
Detonation- Awesome
Entrance-Awesome
Anthem-Good for a badass metal song
Unrepentant-One of my 3 favorites
And Sadness Will Sear-One of my 3 favorites
Becoming The Dragon-hasnt grown on me yet
To The Rats-Damn good, gotta let the verse grow on me though
This World Can't Tear Us Apart-One of my 3 favorites
Tread The Floods-Sick ass song, nice and fast
Contempt Breeds Contamination- good song, but the chorus reminds me so much of the chorus from "and sadness will sear" I was listening to this song and started singing the words from sadness.
The Rising- Least favorite track off the album, its a well written song just not my style, I bet it grows on me over time though
The Crusade-masterpiece

even on first few listens, the album is fucking sick! only real dud in the whole album is The Rising. Honestly i'm not digging that song at all. Sorry Paolo.

I have to agree, but I focused on the bass for a few tracks and its fuckin awesome, massive improvment over the first albums. and the work on the crusade is just pefect.

what kind of song is rising?

September 14, 2006 11:19:43 PM UTC Post #8

its a pretty generic metal song, its not a bad song, just different and weaker than the others, a lot less power and emotion to, I dunno im just not really feeling it.
I played it for a friend and he was like, is this savatage, or def leppard, who is this?
play a few other songs off the crusade and then listen to this and its just like, eh.
I guess it just doesnt fit with the rest of the album which is why I dont like it yet

I love the rising, out of the news songs I've heard today this was the one that stuck the most.

dude u gotta be kidding, it sounds like a typical 80's rock song, so stock sounding. To each his own i guess, it's Travis' fav song so ur not alone.
