Matt Heafy of Trivium

Get ready to step into the court of the dragon as Matt Heafy from Trivium joins us for a very special chat! We throw it back to an earlier era and reflect on the first time Trivium and Avenged Sevenfold had the opportunity to tour together. We get into the new Trivium album, In the Court Of The Dragon, and discuss the significance behind the album’s kickass artwork. Matt opens up about touring during a pandemic, and we discuss how the industry has moved away from rolling tours in favor of weekend destination festivals (RIP Warped Tour - we still love you!) Matt discusses how M. Shadows was the person responsible for saving his career. We talk Twitch and Matt’s current setup, and how he continues to keep up with streaming during tour. We leave this chat with something fun for YOU to tell US - who do you consider to be the Big 4 of modern metal?  Explore more Drinks With Johnny: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drinkswithjohnny Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drinkswithjohnny Twitter: https://twitter.com/drinkswjohnny​​​​ Shop: https://www.drinkswithjohnny.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Om Podcasten

After touring the world with Avenged Sevenfold for 20 years, Johnny Christ sits down to have conversations with some old friends, some new friends, and people of all different walks of life to hear the stories that shaped their lives and careers. The truth is, we never really know where these conversations are going to go. Sometimes we play a game for some less than thrilling penalties, get lost in the middle of LA, and even just kick back to celebrate a holiday or two.  Sometimes we drink, other times we don’t drink at all. From cocktails to health shakes, the drink is just a nice icebreaker to loosen up our guests for the wild ride they’re about to embark upon. Whatever it is you're looking for, we're sure to have it on the menu here at Drinks With Johnny. So stay tuned, stay thirsty, and stay FILTHY AF!
