TRIVIUM’s MATT HEAFY and IN VIRTUE’s TREY XAVIER Release “We Are The Decayed” Music Video

You may remember last month for Toontrack’s Metal Month celebration we were very fortunate to get a peek into the songwriting process of Trivium’s Matt Heafy. Trey wrote and recorded a track, and flew to Matt’s house to shoot Matt’s complete lyric and melody writing process, from Matt hearing the song for the first time all the way through to a final recorded product in just a few hours.

Matt streams daily on Twitch and you can find lots of awesome content on his personal YouTube channel as well.

I studied music on both coasts (Berklee and SSU) and now I'm just trying to put my degree to some use. That's a music degree, not an English one. I'm sure you noticed.
