Background

This album is the first record to feature new drummer Nick Augusto after previous drummer Travis Smith departed in 2009. In various interviews, the band has stated that the album sounds closer to the style of Ascendancy than the style exhibited on The Crusade and Shogun.

Following this on June 6, 2011 Matt Heafy stated on his Twitter that the album would be named after the aforementioned song.

On July 9, Trivium played "Inception of the End" live for the first time at the Rockstar Mayhem Festival in San Bernardino, CA. Not only was it the first time the song had been played live, but it was also the first time the song had been heard by fans.[3] On July 13, Trivium released "Inception of the End." as their third new single, with the song premiering on HotTopic.[4] On July 21, "Black" and "Built to Fall" premiered on various radio stations including their hometown station WJRR and 98online.[5]

In Waves has received generally favorable reviews from music critics, averaging a score of 63 on the review aggregate website Metacritic. Eduardo Rivadavia of Allmusic rated the album four out of five stars and commented "...Trivium will probably be vilified once again for taking the same sort of creative backward step that the fans typically clamor for from Metallica, Slayer, and other bands on down; it's the essence of the Florida band's "can't win" lot in life, but there's always hope that this will change, in time". [15] Another positive review came from from Ian Inwood of BBC, in his review, he stated, "...This may not be quite enough for Trivium to turn back the hands of the clock to the point where the world lay at their fretboards, but the notion that this is a band whose best days lie behind them is one that, at least for now, is resting on ice". Alt Sounds also spoke positively about the album and even after stating "Trivium have not topped themselves" in reference to their past albums but did call it "...a symbol of triumph and overall a sound, beautifully solid record." [16]

In a more mixed review, Revolver Magazine rated the album three out of five stars and summarized, "An inconsistent record with flashes of brilliance, In Waves should, however, keep diehard Trivium fans happy." [17]

In Waves was met with negative reviews as well, most notably Jamie Thomson from The Guardian. Who, in his review, stated that, "In Waves is as overproduced and mercilessly polished as modern metal gets, and all the worse for it." [18]
