This song may be an eccentricity, but that's only beacuse Matt wanted to try something different. Also, I recall reading an interview in which he stated he was listening to such bands as The Killers, saying their latest album was really good.
Strangely, if you compare the song Mr. Brightside with Dying In Your Arms, the two don't sound too different, aside from the lyrics of course. The fast...radio-friendly driven style, the repetition of the last lines of "Cut you out" (compare with Brightside's "I never")...maybe it's just me, the similarity between the two songs is arbitrary.
As for the song itself, I admit that wasn't the Trivium we all know and love, but it was unique...I didn't think it was bullshit.
WTF is wrong with you?
