In the current issue (August 2009) of Guitar World magazine, Trivium guitarist Matt Heafy was asked what was the best live performance he's ever seen. Here's his reply in the magazine:
"It was the Summer Sonic festival in Osaka, Japan, when I was able to stand sidestage for Maximum the Hormone, one of the most-jaw dropping live bands ever. They're like a combination of midperiod Pantera, early Misfits, early System of a Down, early Slipknot, early-to-mid-Nineties punk, like Offspring or Pennywise, and Japanese metal. It was as much fun as it was inspiring. Check them out."
If you have the current Guitar World issue, which features Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong cover, go to page 69 and you'll see Matt mentioning the Offspring.
