how can anyone hate this dude?

"Where's the groove for In Waves gone?" "It's still on the In Waves album." Ouch lol

I like the way he answers everything with calm and cool. This guy is probably the nicest guy in metal community.

why do people talk shit about him he is a great guy

"Where did the In Waves groovs go?" "They're still on In Waves!" Made me crack up.

Every time I see an interview with Matt Heafy he just seems like the nicest most genuine guy you could ever meet. He also takes criticism and hate so well...it just bounces right off his back. I also love how he just has his opinion and sticks by it but respects your right to have yours. I think he should get the title "nicest guy in metal" like how Dave Grohl is called the "nicest guy in rock". But seriously though, I'm a new fan of Trivium, just discovered the band a couple of moths ago, and definitely glad to be a part of the fandom...

I still don't understand the "Trivium is a Metallica clone" idiom. I don't recall them ever sounding like Metallica. Also, Five Finger Death Punch is the metal Nickelback.

"what does corey taylor think about this" That comment won this very discretely.

trivium till i die

Whenever I start to feel bad at guitar I go back and watch the Trivium "Bet you can't play this" video from years ago.

Such a nice and genuine guy.

Such a good guy

Seriously Matt, fuck the haters. It only matters if you (and the fans) care, and we dont. Every great band grows in one way or another and the sound changes with it. People need to not be so narrow minded. P.S. I have diabetes, and it blows big giant cocks.

I watched this live. At 3:47 I was the one who asked what he was drinking lol. I was so pumped when he answered my question.

hi I'm matt heafy from trivium and I bet you can't play this

Such a humble human being!!! I don't understand the HATERS at all!!! Jealous more then likely!!!

I came across this by accident and glad I did. Matt, your responses were nothing but professional and humorous. I cant say as I have ever watched a band answer tweets or emails on here and this was enjoyable.

This is gold. More of that ^^

"And you guys don't even know I'm not wearing pants."- Matt Heafy Reasons why he's my favorite person

Just keep doing what you guys are doing, forget the haters and mean feedback. love to see u guys back in Pensacola FL seen ya last time at the Vinyl Lounge

Holy shit if you cover his ears he looks like a totally different person

Trivium is an amazing band. Silence In The Snow wasn't for me, but it wasn't bad either. The fact that they're versatile is what makes them amazing ☺

Matt is an absolute legend, as is Trivium.. I luv evey album they have made.. He is such a good sport the way he handles the shit they get from mean jealous assholes who are useless, and probably haven't even achieved 1/100th of anything these guys have...and as the saying goes, If you don't have anything nice to say then shut ya trap!

I actually have respect for each Trivium album. Crusade is actually in my top three from Trivium. Keep on playing what you guys want Matt and I'll keep on buying.

the fact that you take criticism the way you do makes you a cool ass dude. love your music even the new stuff and you guys kick ass live,I've seen you twice. invite me backstage sometime for some beers!

Ascendancy got me back on to metal after years of bad metal and rap metal. and i love how they change music over the albums. i often find i get that dread-relief feeling when i listen to a new album. ascendancy and ember to inferno heavily influence my own guitar style

I respect the your decisions to change within each and every album. I enjoy how different they are and how cool they are in their own way. Some sound more thrashy, some sound more metal-core, but they all sound pretty heavy to me with excellent instrumentation. You don't need to scream in every song to sound heavy, in my opinion.

I love trivium. I don't like the last 2 albums that much but i'm not going to hate them when they have lik 4 awesome ones. And they deserve a place on my heart just for Shogun alone so... P.S: I miss Travis btw xD

Here’s hoping you always keep Alex as your drummer. His abilities leave me speechless as do all of you. Btw Matt, been a fan since forever, I honestly look forward to food reviews from you. And WSOU: Seton Hall Pirate radio. I’m a graduate of seton hall and must hold the record for requesting Trivium. In all honestly, thank you so much for what you do. You are an inspiration to myself and so many.

what a sound guy ....not even a trivium fan ....

You should do live streaming more often this is great LMAO!

Got to hang out with Trivium and In Flames in Winnipeg at a bar after their show. Nicest set of dude I've met, just chilled out and were downright friendly

I must say, I hated silence in the snow when it came out and its still not an album i put on, and have been one of the first to complain when they gave up screaming both times, but i have noticed listening to older albums then listening to some of the newer stuff and realize there is something for every mood... I officially grown to appreciate most of their sounds!

Great guy

Matt. You are the shit. I appreciate your musicianship and how you humble yourself.

the trivium and lamb of god posters are awesome I like the idea you still have your own posters put up

Let me make it clear Matt you don't have to scream to make your music sound heavy" Vengeance Falls" had little screaming and its an awesome heavy album. Look at Avenged Sevenfold Matt Shadows didn't like screaming seeing from the band's first two albums he wanted to sing and still to this day all their albums are heavy with NO screaming. Matt to me you will always make great heavy music cool riffs, guitar melody you guys are epic I love silence in the snow it was something new and refreshing and for that I love it. You guys keep making new sound music and keep laughing at the stupid haters. So any ideas for the next album?

Yessss. The last record was good... but I'm really glad to hear the original Trivium sound again. Whats up Matt by the way lol. When are you guys coming back around Columbus OH?

26:52 is my favorite part😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love this guy! What an awesome human being overall! Matt rocks!

Smart.intelligent. Well spoken man. Respect for the entire band. Great role models. Metal at its most prime.

"Where did the groove from the In Waves album go?" "It's still on the In Waves album" lmfao. love your responses Matt

We love you Matt, can't wait to see you again on February 14th in Birmingham!

One more thing Matt when will you guys come to Puerto Rico? They're metals fans here who love your music.

You're right - J.D.Morgan and Lauren Cohan from TWD are playing Jonathan and Martha Kent in BvS (respectively). I kind of believe it might be a coincidence, but the more I've read/heard about it, the more I was sure that something weird and strange happened out there.

omg didn't know if I could love you more but after this video! 😍😍😍😍😍😍 trivium for life!

He seems like such a nice, honest, humble guy

I feel like mat has a lot of stuff as in clutter lol. " and this is my personal toaster i have in my room"

"There's Ghost possessing us." In the photo Corey just looks like he's enjoying it. I WOULD ENJOY IT TOO! Lmao, my fav photo!

Deathgasm is awesome

Seen you guys in Pensacola FL, how did you like our town and will you guys comeback plz

Was Matt talking about Soilwork's Misanthrope at 14:14 ? My net is chugging so I missed what he is just saying before it.

omg how did i miss it

Such a great person, love the guys in Trivium, but I really wish they could've expanded on their "Shogun" sound. That album, for me, was one of the best Metal albums of the past 15 years. So solid and explorative. "In Waves" was great too, but for different reasons. I love "Ember to Inferno" and "Ascendancy" because we were all Metalcore kids at that time and they are nostalgic. I even like "The Crusade" because it was well done, despite being VERY VERY Metallica-esque. That said, I really can't stand their last two albums though. Here's to hoping for a return to form. Best Wishes to Matt, Corey, and co.

when he says they play tonnes of shogun stuff i feel like that really only means down from the sky, into the mouth of hell we march and throes of perdition unfortunately. would love to hear shogun itself, as well as kirisute gomen and insurrection live more as it's their best album.

My first Guitar was a $49.99 Harmony Classic with a built in amp on it and speaker in the upper top back corner. so I could just walk around n jam, just needed 4 9 volt batteries

God, how do you not like this dude or Trivium? They truly don't give a shit about anyone's opinion. They play what they wanna play, and no one has changed that

9:05 I laughed so hard that my chair almost broke

OMFG he had his ears closed...Fucking sacrilege

Was this a live stream on r/roastme?

"She's my diabetic little puppy daughter" lol

Still listening Roadrunner United with this guy! Fuck yeah Matt! \m/

Hi Kiichi!

My favourite band for 11 years and even I could come up with better trash talk

Bro... Ember, Ascendency, Shogun are great albums and Trivium will forever be a great band in my eyes.

Nice shirt!

dam that no pants comment at 2:54 tho

15:07-15:12 did he say "Korngy" or Koungy?

Embers to Inferno and Ascendency love those Cds

Matt's so awesome!

You dudes are great don’t let theses duches bring you down the

mad blunts in memphis when yall come back through*

People will hate on everyone!!!! Lol Matt is such a cool, chill dud!!! Him and Corey!!!!!! One of very few metal bands, that don't walk around with a ego.

So I'm not the only one that thought he looked like Steven Yeun. I watched one of their music videos and thought Steven was in it. xD Btw... I love you Matt. lmao

Finally!!!! I now know how to pronounce paolo's last name

yo matt i dont know if your much of a gamer but theres this videogame called nioh about a westerner who becomes a samurai in japan and i feel like you could write an amazing song for that game.

"the 3 of us in our band we talk a lot harder to each other than that" damn.

Heafy has a sick little dog. Almost certain that's a Frenchy.

25:45 exactly which comment was he reading that was so fucked up??

OK ASCENDENCY WAS THE BEST. i loved it the first time i heard it which is when i was 6 in 2008 but it was the first album i heard and i finally learned gunshot to the head of trepidation on guitar +Matthew Kiichi Heafy

Descendents t-shirt! Legend!

literally my favorite Death song too ❤

Why did i cry when i saw the dog, help...

Trivium did a tour with Machine Head, Gojira and Lamb of God.... god damn it I'm pissed.

I don't care for anything they've put out post Shogun. However I will always respect them for being one of the bands that made me fall in love with aggressive music. I'll always love Ember through Shogun.

I guess it's about time to get me a damn descendents shirt!

trivium pls come to Malaysia

This was fun

I love how he is the grammar police, he’s a very intelligent person. The fact that he’s so calm and finding this shit funny makes him amazing. Plus he’s so hot, lol

My fucking hero here

Someone said the Babymetal is more metal than Trivium?

Teivum is definetly on top five bands together with a7x, Breaking Benjamin, Underwing, and Metallica

Dude we're wearing the same shirt!

Anyone else constantly check their facebook tabs because of the sounds?

Trivium is the shit regardless But when are we getting another album like Ascendency again anyway??

god I love Matt Heafy, he's hilarious and such an amazing guitarist

Breaking! Matt Heavy is Tony Stark 😄

I love Trivium, I'm an old fan, and since the first time I listened to I just got BLOWED MY MIND UP. In the same way that Metallica, Black Sabbath and AC/DC blowed me up before. So that's HUGE. I mean, how many bands do that with you after that first mindblow that makes you start growing your hair and worshiping metal? Matt should grow his hair back too HAHA and they need to comeback do Brazil 'cause I reallyyy need to met him and mosh the fuck out in the pit.

I don't like all the album's, but respect the musicanship.

Trivium Rules put some pants on Matt lol love ur music and it's evolution. always been one my fav bands since 2001
