Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr by Trivium

Today's Metal Track is Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr by Trivium. This is off of their 2005 album Ascendancy. Singer Matt Heafy said that this song "is a look at a villainous tyrant; one who can simply kill and destroy on will, push his faith upon all, be hated by all other powers around - and still be loved by many that he rules."

The band released a new album just last month. Matt Heafy blew out his voice in 2014 so he can't scream like he did in the past like on this song. It hasn't quite grown on me yet because of that. Maybe it will one day but to me this will always be Trivium. A great mix of screaming and clean vocals.
