There are several artists called Triumph:
1) A Canadian rock band
2) A Scottish Christian rock band
3) A Brazilian black metal band
4) Italian eurobeat group
5) A Danish band playing random music
1. The Canadian rock band was popular in the late 1970s through the 1980s. Triumph began building their reputation across North America as a live band, peaking in the early 1980s as an import before interest gradually declined. Today, the power trio continue to receive radio airplay on Classic Rock stations and are perhaps best remembered for their positive message songs and their vibrant energetic concerts, complete with extravagant pyrotechnical light shows. Their popularity was extremely strong in Texas, where they first received strong radio attention; but, they were stellar standouts at California’s US Festival, and garnered a considerable fan base and radio attention by regularly touring the world, especially throughout North America and Europe.
The band was formed by Toronto music veterans Gil Moore (b. 1951) (drums/vocals) and Mike Levine (b. 1949) (bass/keyboards), after meeting talented guitarist/singer/songwriter Rik Emmett (b. 1953) in a manager’s office in Toronto in 1975.
Primary songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Rik Emmett left the group in 1988, Rick Santers and Phil Xenidis were temporary members for a while. It was in 2008 that Triumph briefly came back to life with Emmett finally agreeing to rejoin the band for a special Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the 2008 Canadian Juno Awards held in Calgary.

Yo Triumph, you should not be on the 30sec preview. You need your stuff to be heard. Only the hardest of the hardcore (and those accepting of a less than Rush equivalent) appreciate you. Know one else knows you were ever there. If ever there were a passed over band that has a chance to be rediscovered - it's these guys. But that will never happen w/a 30sec preview...
