TRIVIUM: 'The Mark Of Perseverance' Biography Due In September

August 14, 2006

Independent Music Press has set a September 7, 2006 publication date for Joe Shooman's unauthorized TRIVIUM biography, entitled "Trivium: The Mark of Perseverance". The following description of the book was provided by the author:

"The remarkable story of TRIVIUM is one of struggle, persistence, setbacks and eventual stellar success: from humble beginnings in dank cellars, through the days of revolving-door membership to the band’s eventual triumphant signing to the legendary Roadrunner Records — these Orlando natives have had an impact on metal not seen since the heyday of their heroes, METALLICA.

"For the very first time in print, the full tale of how it all happened is revealed through extensive and totally exclusive interviews by the author with those who were instrumental in the band’s inexorable rise.

"With fascinating input from original members Brad Lewter and Jarred Bonaparte, DIY Records' Toby Brown and Matt Wagner of the influential Orlando Metal Awards, ex-band members Ritchie Brown, George Moore and Mike Poggione, collaborators Alex Vieira, PRODIGY guitarist Gizz Butt and first label supremo Stefan Luedicke, acclaimed video director Dale 'Rage' Resteghini and New York photographer Josh Rothstein, all the way through to ex-Melody Maker editor Mark Sutherland and legendary producer Colin Richardson (MACHINE HEAD, FEAR FACTORY, BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE),this biography is an unparalleled insight into the TRIVIUM phenomenon. The book also features an eight-page photo section including many never-before-seen photographs."

Ex-punk bassist Joe Shooman is a music journalist and broadcaster whose work has featured in mags including Metal Hammer, Record Collector, Plan B Magazine, Mixmag and The Fly; he is also a regular contributor to BBC radio.
