DELUXE VERSION INCLUDES 13 BONUS TRACKS
BOX SET + MULTIPLE FORMATS DUE OUT VIA COOKING VINYL ON DECEMBER 2

Florida’s Trivium have spent over a decade building their reputation and steadily rising to prominence, eventually becoming one of the main torchbearers of heavy metal in the modern era. With millions of albums sold globally and numerous world tours (from Ozzfest, Mayhem and Download to opening for Metallica, Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden to extensive headline treks) Trivium’s journey actually began in 2003 with the release of their debut album, Ember To Inferno.

Ember To Inferno quickly captured the attention of the band’s earliest fans, as well as the ears of A&R reps at Roadrunner Records who rapidly signed the band and went on to release their watershed album Ascendancy in 2005. Ember To Inferno was the catalyst for what was to come and it has been out of print for several years….until now!

The band and 5B Artist Management have partnered with Cooking Vinyl to re-release the album, along with a deluxe edition that includes 13 additional early versions of songs that have never been previously available, yet have earnt evasive legend status among true Trivium diehards; it’s a true treasure trove of material that will delight the staunchest Trivium fans and beyond.

“The purpose of this release is to show the very early beginnings of Trivium—perhaps an era unbeknownst to most listeners of the band,” said Trivium vocalist and guitarist Matt Heafy. “To look back at Ember as the starting point of Trivium becoming recognized worldwide is a staggering thought for me, considering I was 16/17 years old during the writing and recording of the record…As a kid, I always said the ‘goal’ was to be in a massive metal band. I don’t think I actually knew what it would mean to have fans in different parts of the world, and I still can’t believe people care so much that they actually want to hear the music that pre-dates our Roadrunner-years. To this day, I am still completely blown away that people are singing words to songs I wrote when I was 16 years old. It’s an amazing feeling.”

Ember To Inferno will be released in four configurations, with the deluxe editions containing the band’s earliest songs “Ruber” (aka the Red Demo), “Caeruleus” (aka the Blue Demo) and “Flavus” (aka the Yellow Demo). Fans can pre-order all formats online via https://triv.lnk.to/ETI.
