Ok, not considering the short low-quality EP Trivium put out, Ember to Inferno would be their first studio full-length album. Well, for starters Trivium can be categorized in a thrash/metalcore branch with typical growling/screaming vocals for this album. The band introduces itself with an atmospheric instrumental and kick off more or less what they'll be doing for the rest of the album with "Pillars of Serpents" and I must say they do a decent job of it. The first thing to strike me is the POWER. Matt Heafy's vocals, the riffs and drum beats rife with double-bass gives a very powerful sound and each element complements the other which is a rarity these days. That, accompanied with timely intervals of clean singing and melodic solos, makes each song worth listening to a few times.

Not their best by any means (Shogun), but also not a bad album. Deserves at least 7.5/10.

Underrated for sure. Unique atmosphere and quality writing/riffage

Very solid yet not as memorable as it could be. Still one of the better debut albums with "Metalcore" attached to it.

I'm generally very fond of Trivium's stuff, but this was one of their albums that I didn't click with - I like the title track, but nothing else here would inspire me to revisit it. They made a pretty huge leap from this one to Ascendancy IMO
