I present you with...
THE ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW GUIDE TO TRIVIUM
QUOTE(Mike)Travis, Brad and Jarred, Trivium's 1st bass player, formed the band in 2000 for a battle of the bands at their school. Brad saw Matt play in a school talent show and brought him to Travis' to try out for Trivium, Matt was almost 14 at the time.  
Travis'approved of Matt's skills and he became the 4th member of Trivium, a few month's later, Brad, the singer/rythym player, wanted to go in another direction with the music, more punk style.  
Travis, Matt and Jerred ask him to leave Trivium. At this point Brent came into the band to fill the rythym guitar spot. Travis told Matt that he (Matt) was going to have to do the singing and lead guitar. Matt said that he couldn't sing, what a differrence time makes.  
Travis' and Jarred senior year Jarred concentrated on getting into the Univ. Of Miami and left the band, Brent took over bass and Trivium became a 3 piece.  
Matt was 17, Travis 20 and Brent 19, when they recorded the demo in 2003. The demo got them signed with Lifeforce Records and ETI came out Oct '03. Trivium need another guitarist to play the ETI live, Corey auditioned, right after graduating from Full Sail. They Payed in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands on a mini tour for the release of ETI.  
Febuary 2004 Trivium met with Monty Conner and signed with RR soon after. However Brent decided to go back to school. Trivium did a couple of tours with fill in bass players, one of which was Paolo, after or possibly during the Road Rage 2004 tour Paolo teamed up with Trivium permanately.  
And as they say, "the rest is history".

QUOTE(m/danm/)This question has been bugging me for AGES!!!  
What is the name of that thing(<<<) on the front of the Ascendancy album, and Crusades 3 merchandise?! Must know! He rocks! And where does he(or very possibly a she )come from?!?!
Brian said it's only referred to as The Blood Angel for now, but may have a name in the future. It'll also evolve over the next few albums :wink:
(my guess is it'll evolve into the blue angel or something similar)

No, there are just a lot of really slow people here.
Just kidding! Trivium are on the rise here in the states, but as much land that this country covers, it takes a while to get the attention of the crowds here.
