"Villainy Thrives" comes from Vengeance Falls, the sixth album by American metal band Trivium, released through Roadrunner in October 2013, and it bears the stamp of the album's producer, Disturbed frontman David Draiman, who shares the writing credit with Matt Heafy, Corey Beaulieu and Paolo Gregoletto. Fans started guessing at Draiman's part in January 2013, when Gregoletto posted studio photos with Heafy sitting beside him.
Heafy sings lead and plays guitar alongside Beaulieu, Gregoletto plays bass and Nick Augusto drums, on what proved to be the drummer's second and final Trivium album before he left in May 2014. Colin Richardson mixed it. Heafy called Draiman the most hands-on producer the band had ever worked with, and credited him with pushing the top of his vocal range up by four to six notes.
