Critically acclaimed Floridian thrashers TRIVIUM announces their 2023 UK tour

Heavy metal band Trivium will bring their Goblins and Wizards Tour to the Victoria Hall,

Stoke-on-Trent on Monday 28 August 2023

Orlando metallers Trivium set themselves apart by collecting metal’s various ingredients and by-products together into a uniquely potent blend of equal parts alchemy and technical wizardry. Like a conquering horde, the band first conquered their central Florida homeland and then set out to take over North America, Europe and the world.

For over two decades, Trivium have quietly raised the bar for heavy music by conjuring a near-magic balance between towering melodic metal infectiousness, extreme metal unpredictability, black metal scope, and a kick of rock ‘n’ roll spirit. After forming in 1999, Trivium crafted a classic in the form ofAscendancy. It concluded 2005 as KERRANG!’s ‘Album of the Year,’ went gold in the UK, and has since surpassed global sales of 500,000 copies. Retrospectively, Metal Hammer cited it in the Top 15 of the ‘The Greatest Metal Albums of the Century.’ They’ve earned six straight Top 25 debuts on the Billboard Top 200 and six Top 3 debuts on the Top Rock Albums Chart. One of many standouts from 2017’s The Sin and The Sentence, the single Betrayer garnered a GRAMMY® Award nod in the category of ‘Best Metal Performance.’ The quartet reached new heights on 2020’s What The Dead Men Say, appearing everywhere from The New York Times, NPR, Forbes, Billboard, Tech Crunch, and Kotaku to Revolver and Alternative Press. They are the rare band who can incinerate a stage alongside Metallica and Iron Maiden and hold a captive audience of tens of thousands on a Twitch stream.

Following 22 years, over 1 million units moved, hundreds of sold-out shows, and half-a-billion streams, the GRAMMY® Award-nominated Florida quartet—Matt Heavy (vocals, guitar), Corey Beaulieu (guitar), Paolo Gregoletto (bass), and Alex Bent (drums)— are excited to be crossing the pond once again for what they’re calling the Goblins And Wizards Tour with Bleed From Within and Orbit Culture as support.
