Trivium's Matt Heafy and Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda are teaming up on a collaboration via Shinoda's Twitch channel on Friday (Feb. 5th) from 1-3 p.m. ET. Fans can check out Shinoda working his production magic on a new song by Heafy.
Shinoda said via Twitch, “I got Matt’s blessing to get weird with the track too. We’re not gonna just make a metal track. We’re not gonna make a Trivium track. If you wanted a Trivium track you could just get a Trivium track. You could go to Matt’s channel and get that. So I’m gonna take his vocal, and even his guitar, and chop them into little tiny bits and run them through a meat grinder and then we’re gonna make a track out of it. I don’t even know what we’re gonna make.”
He added, “The track he sent is so… it’s, like, EPIC! It’s very, like, Matt standing on a mountaintop with a falcon on his wrist who flies away and collects the bones of enemy clans, enemy warriors.”
In response, Heafy tweeted, “PS: @mikeshinoda – the way you described the song… I MUST HAVE THAT PAINTED!!! Hahaha. I loved that description so much. I can’t wait to hear what you conjure! GO FRICKIN NUTS!”
