Ascendancy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia There is also an album called Ascendancy by metal band Trivium, and a 1982 movie Ascendancy. Ascendancy featured an early 3D galactic map which allowed starships to travel in a more realistic galaxy than in games such as Master of Orion 1 and 2 (a very similar 3D map was adopted for Master of Orion 3). Ascendancy, by its very nature, was not capable of multiplayer games and so the focus was on single player against AI opponents. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ascendancy   (1191 words)

Ascendancy (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ascendancy (2005) is an album by the metalcore band Trivium. A demo of the song "The Deceived" was included on the re-release of Trivium's debut album Ember to Inferno nearly a year before Ascendancy was released. The album spawned four singles in "Like Light to the Flies," "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr," "A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation" and "Dying in Your Arms." Music videos for each of the songs were shot; a promotional video was filmed for the song "Rain." en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ascendancy_(album)   (513 words)

University of Portsmouth music Ascendancy is an incredible record from the beginning acoustic notes of 'The End of Everything' to the fade out of the awesome politically-charged final track 'Declaration'. The title track 'Ascendancy' is simply a masterpiece in modern metal composed entirely by teenage prodigy Heafy. Upon every listen it is still difficult to comprehend the age of the band, with whom I draw comparisons to Alexi Laiho, Janne Warman and co. from Finnish metal gods Children of Bodom. www.port.ac.uk /departments/academic/sshls/portfolio/music/articletitle,30621,en.html   (851 words)

iProng : iPod, iTunes, and Music : News, Commentary, and Reviews : Switch to iProng - Trivium: Ascendancy Ascendancy, like many great albums before it, exudes the fact that each track was produced through great determination and with much importance placed on it, not through desperation to make an EP worthy of an LP. The title track “Ascendancy” shows a different course from many title tracks in that it was clearly not meant to be the focal point of the album, but fits right in with the other tracks. The final stanza of the album, entitled “Declaration”, doesn’t recede into the shadows as you would think a closing song would, but instead lashes out like a caged animal with some of the most grinding composition to be featured in the album. www.ipodgarage.com /article.php?id=946   (1174 words)

Trivium : Ascendancy - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect But Ascendancy's fire is more ferocious and its transitions more confident, which means the band is even more dedicated to its clever throwback sound. That album's mix of classic thrash (early Metallica) with 21st century metalcore rage and progressive metal flourish still roils here. Ascendancy aligns real-deal thrash with powerful modern influences. www.artistdirect.com /nad/store/artist/album/0,,3181651,00.html   (311 words)

Ascendancy Review Trivium Reviews @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com Ascendancy definitely is a great CD, but their future albums will need much more if they wish to be as powerful as Metallica. Ascendancy - one of the best songs on the album, great riff, anthemic chorus, and the best part of the album to have the rubbish singing in it 10/10. The album is a very distinct sound that most bands of today cannot accomplish as this is a very brave step in the US music scene as they use thrash riffs with melodic vocals aswell as hardcore vocals. www.ultimate-guitar.com /reviews/compact_discs/trivium/ascendancy   (8206 words)

HMAS.org Metal Community - Trivium - Ascendancy (2005) This album is close to perfection, but the thing is, I think we’ve yet to seen the best of what Trivium has to offer. Well folks, this album should further establish them as one of the best young bands in all of metal. Remember, this is only their second album and I expect them to reach gigantic heights. forums.hmas.org /showthread.php?t=10676   (899 words)

Sound recording and reproduction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Beatles, under producer George Martin, were among the first to experiment with multitrack techniques and effects on the album Sgt. Multitrack recording makes it possible to capture sound from several microphones, or from different 'takes' to tape or disc with maximum headroom and quality, allowing maximum flexibility in the mixing and mastering stages for editing, level balancing, compressing and limiting, and the addition of effects such as reverberation, equalisation, flanging and many more.

The Trivium Thread, Bitches - Music & Musician Forums Trivium is a great band, I mean there nothing special but still there awesome I mean the Ascendancy album is really awesome has alot of stuff an album should. However, Ascendancy is a strong album, and personally it's going to be on my top 10 album list for this year. Ascendancy IMO is considerably heavier than From Ember to Inferno, which, if anything, I would tag with the more generic metalcore label. musicianforums.com /forums/showthread.php?threadid=348427&styleid=18   (1459 words)

Trivium Feature Interview At Blistering.com The time spent on the twelve songs that make up ‘Ascendancy’ was obviously time well spent, and Roadrunner Records were of the same opinion too when the label offered the young act a deal after only hearing the demo recordings of the said tracks. The reaction to ‘Ascendancy’ has also had an immediate effect on Trivium in the live forum too as crowds have seemingly grown progressively every night as the tour rolls on. Since the release of ‘Ascendancy’ in March, Trivium have been keeping up a hectic touring schedule on the road with Danzig, followed by the month long run of Roadrunner Records’ Roadrage 2005 tour (With 3 Inches Of Blood, Still Remains and The Agony Scene). www.blistering.com /fastpage/fpengine.php/link/1/templateid/9249/tempidx/5/menuid/3   (718 words)

Blistering.com Review: Trivium - Ascendancy Trivium’s ‘Ascendancy’ is far from a thrash classic, but given a couple of albums, they might just come up with something close to potential expectations. The album showed the band had potential, but still had some way to go before really generating any real worthy attention. When Floridian thrash metal act Trivium released their debut album Ember To Inferno in 2003 (Through Lifeforce Records), I was only mildly interested. www.blistering.com /fastpage/fpengine.php/link/1/templateid/8991/tempidx/4/menuid/2   (341 words)

Trivium - Ascendancy : album review Close your eyes in some of the slightly cleaner vocalised bridges and you can believe it's pre-Black album Metallica in full flow, while the technical wizardry of the guitar solo is something to behold, particularly when it sticks in a dissonant chord before returning to the song's opening motif. However, with the rabid enthusiasm and undoubted quality of Ascendancy, Trivium have thrown their cap into the (New Wave Of American) heavy metal ring in a way that is impossible to ignore. Well yes, for besides the fact that Heafy and co are precociously talented, their age - or lack thereof - is ironic given that Ascendancy is steeped in the influences of classic, mid-'80s thrash and speed metal. www.musicomh.com /albums3/trivium.htm   (498 words)

metaluk.com reviews / Trivium – Ascendancy ‘Ascendancy’ is the second release from these Florida based metallers Trivium, which has proven to be a refreshingly good album that forms a rather consistent group of songs. The cool thing about this album is that it isn’t melodic death, or thrash, or death metal, or anything else as distinctive as a whole, but rather an amalgamation of all of these. The best tracks on the album are the blazing ‘Rain’, ‘Drowned and Torn Asunder’; the epic ‘A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation’; the thrash heavy ‘The Deceived’ and ‘Suffocating Sight’; and the two current singles, ‘Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr’ and ‘Like Light to the Flies’. www.metaluk.com /reviews/viewReview.cfm?iReviewID=570   (326 words)

TransformOnline : Music : Reviews : Trivium "Ascendancy" (Roadrunner) With Trivium& second album, their first on Roadrunner, the band have proven what all the hype is about: Ascendancy is the modern equivalent to Metallica's earlier works, material that put the metal scene on its head. The album is crafted to perfection, a series of devastatingly awesome songs, fusing the classic metal of old with the evolving sound of the genre to create a truly captivating work. Ascendancy is the ammunition necessary for the rebellion. www.transformonline.com /music/reviews/002255.php   (524 words)

Amazon.com: Ascendancy: Music: Trivium Ascendancy, the group's second album and their first on Roadrunner Records, is filled with carefully crafted songs that surge with energy, passion and originality. But the album opening track was just a tease, because as soon as the second song, "Rain," begins, the listener knows what the rest of the album is going to be like. While the first album, lyrically, addressed romantic disillusionment and child abuse, this time the songs confront spousal abuse, suicide, depression, tyranny and freedom of speech. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0007QN8U6?v=glance   (2573 words)

Audio Aggression Reviews -- Trivium - 'Ascendancy' The album is a true metal masterpiece—possibly the best metal album in the last 20 years and one capable of leading metal’s charge from the underground into the mainstream. Bottom-line is this album sets the standard and raises the bar for modern hard rock and metal bands. Vocalist Matt Heafy and bassist Paolo Gregoletto are all of 19 years old, guitarist Corey Beaulieu is 21, and the senior of the band is drummer Travis Smith at 22. www.tunelabmusic.com /reviews/reviewid16.php   (242 words)

METAL SIDE - reviews That's why I was very curious what they recorded after the album that was impressive and could've been the milestone of the genre if the genre had decided to use some of Revenant's ideas. The first seconds of the album are one of the most powerful parts I heard in last years. I knew that this legendary band recorded some tracks after the brilliant debut album "Prophecies of a Dying World", and that some of them were released on EP ("Exalted Being"), but I couldn't find them. www.geocities.com /deathmetalside/r28.html   (4309 words)

GIGWISE.com Trivium - ‘Ascendancy’ (Roadrunner)Released 14/03/05 This album has lyrics that pick the scab of a life of pain and guitar solos to drop to your knees and prey to the gods of metal for. The most amazing thing about this album is the incredibly mature and well -developed sound that comes from a band of which all of the members are under 23. If Trivium is going to keep improving with each album the way they have between their debut and this corker then we are in for some tasty treats to come. www.gigwise.com /news.asp?contentid=5240   (428 words)

Amazon.co.uk: Ascendancy [Explicit Lyrics]: Music Overall, Ascendancy is a great album, and I recommend you get it, cos you won't be disappointed. Gone are the cheesy gothic allusions and blustering nu-metal taglines; ASCENDANCY is an opus of metallic poetry, seething with articulate rage and desolation. The tune rocks and this album is wicked. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0007QN8U6   (1028 words)

Amazon.co.uk: Ascendancy: Special Edition/+DVD: Music The original 'Ascendancy' album was amazing as the sales suggest but this new version offers loads more.

canadaeast.com - Whatever The title of this album is certainly fitting, if you want to call off your marriage at the last minute, by all means, play this for your significant other and you'll likely never see him/her again. Not to say this is a bad album, but Emo-punk isn't exactly wedding music. No real weakness or complaint about this album, unless you want something to party to. canadaeast.com /apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050507/WHATEVER07/205070405   (570 words)

The ascendancy of IDM - Music Forum I loved this album because, as far as I was concerned, it wasnt the spastic or contrived style of 'advanced' or 'groundbreaking' music that typefies what is wrong with the genre. I think people are bored with the amount of albums that sound like Tri Repartae v238471 and that's where it comes from. Squarepusher has altered his sound and the new album is fucking wicked. www.radiomute.com /9389-ascendancy-idm.html   (1312 words)

Trivium - Ascendancy Review - sputnikmusic 5) Ascendancy- A good solid track but it is overshadowed by the rest of the album. The solo is one of the best on the album, consisting of shredding and scaling done so fast and masterfully it definitely is the highlight of the song. Being undeniably one of the best songs in the album, it efficiently reels the listener into the world created from Triviums fantastic musicianship (highly technical riffs, blasting drums, heavy singing, skilled 5-string bass playing etc.) but still leaves him begging for more, a lot more. www.sputnikmusic.com /album.php?reviewid=6452&ref=mx   (2137 words)

purevolume™ Trivium Ascendancy appeared in March 2005, at which point band personnel had shifted to include Heafy, Smith, bassist Paolo Gregoletto, and guitarist Corey Beaulieu.
