TRIVIUM's COREY BEAULIEU Speaks To GetYourRockOut (Audio)

GetYourRockOut conducted an interview with guitarist Corey Beaulieu of Florida metallers TRIVIUM on February 2 in London, England. You can now listen to the chat in the YouTube clip below.

Asked if TRIVIUM would consider working with David Draiman again following the band's collaboration with the DISTURBED and DEVICE singer on last year's "Vengeance Falls" album, Corey told the "Metal Hammer" radio show: "Possibly. I'm sure by the time we do another record, I'm assuming DISTURBED will probably be back [from their hiatus]. So who knows? He's a busy guy, so I guess it's all up in the air."

He continued: "On the other records, you always have that in mind when you have a really good experience recording with somebody, 'Yeah, it'd be great to record with them again,' but when it comes down to doing another record, they're doing another project or recording someone else, and you're, like, 'Well, we can't wait,' with scheduling and stuff. So it all just depends on that. [But] he's a great dude, so no matter if we work with him again or not on the next record, we definitely learned a lot from him during the 'Vengeance Falls' process that we'll be able to move forward and apply it to the next record. So he'll always be there in spirit and he's always part of our TRIVIUM family. So it'd be great to see him come back and put out a DISTURBED record and tour again, so we can hang with him on the road."

TRIVIUM frontman Matt Heafy previously called Draiman "the most hands-on producer we've ever had," adding, "He went head first into every single instrument, meticulously and fantastically."

Heafy told Loudwire that he also connected with Draiman on a personal level as a singer. "Vocally, he was a huge asset for me being a vocal coach," Heafy explained. "He didn't just show me how accentuate certain words or sentences in the music; he showed me proper breath technique, singing technique, where to push from, where not to push from — those kinds of things. It was really great to have a vocal coach who's also the producer."

In an interview with Loudwire, Draiman said he and TRIVIUM had talked about working together for years. "We had more and more conversations over the course of time and they came through Austin, Texas one time while they were on tour and I played them some songs from the DEVICE record and we talked a little more about really figuring out how to set this in stone and put a time together and we did. They started sending me material and I started sending them comments on the material and we started communicating in a pre-production sort of fashion, online at first, then over the phone and then in at the end of the second week of January [2013], they came out to my house here in Austin."
