Robb Flynn Joined Trivium For Black Sabbath Cover

TRIVIUM was joined by MACHINE HEAD's Robb Flynn for a performance of the BLACK SABBATH classic "Symptom Of The Universe" in honor of SABBATH singer Ozzy Osbourne during the Florida metallers' headlining performance Friday night (August 8) at the Bloodstock Open Air festival at Catton Park, Walton-on-Trent, United Kingdom. Fan-filmed video of his appearance can be seen below.

Prior to launching into the track, TRIVIUM frontman Matt Heafy told the crowd: " So we recently lost a hero of metal. I shouldn't even say a hero of metal. A man without whom's influence none of this shit would exist. I wouldn't be here, we wouldn't be here — none of these fucking bands would be here. Metal would not sound the fucking same, rock wouldn't sound the same, fucking metalcore, deathcore, none of that shit would fucking exist without this man. And you know exactly what I'm talking about.

"So we wanna pay a special tribute to the man that made this all happen," he continued. "But we can think of no fucking better way to have another one of our heroes on stage with us right the fuck now to sing this with us. Ladies and gentlemen, another person without whose influence we wouldn't be fucking standing here right now. Make some noise for Robb Flynn from MACHINE HEAD."
