To be fair, Heafy meant to say “flashlights” for the classic lighter-in-the-air moment. But his tongue betrayed him, and the man immediately cracked up like, “Yep, that’s going on TikTok.” Spoiler: It did. (Fun fact: TRIVIUM’s 2005 album Ascendancy was written when Heafy was 17. Teenage him would’ve high-fived current him for this chaos.)
“I’d like to formally apologize for what I said last night on stage. I can and will do better.”
Translation: “My bad for the accidental NSFW moment… unless?” Meanwhile, PIG DESTROYER’s probably nodding approvingly from their noise-filled corner. (Another fun fact: Their 1998 album Prowler in the Yard is 24 minutes long. Efficiency!)
Now, for the real reason you’re here: TRIVIUM and BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE are still tearing up stages for their albums’ 20th anniversaries. Ascendancy vs. The Poison – the tour where metalcore dads relive their MySpace glory days. Grab tickets before they’re gone, or forever mourn while hugging your suspiciously flashlight-shaped… souvenirs.
