This song will never get old. Whenever I want to show someone what an epic is for metal, I put this song on. This song is just incredible and I get goosebumps everytime I hear it.
Watching this now, it's so nice to see how much Matt has improved in such a small amount of time. From having to relearn how to sing to dominating both cleans and screams in the latest streams. So much power has been gained and I bet it'll just keep on growing.
Shogun is the very song that proved to me what a beast Trivium is, and after that been a fan since. Its also the song and band that got me into metal, thank you Trivium. ❤
Big fan from Ireland here, I fell in love with Shogun the moment I heard it, every year since it's come out it's constantly been in every playlist I've ever made and I've now watched every live performance you put up on RU-vid of every song off this perfect album and from the bottom of my heart you've made that young aspiring 15 year old guitarist and the same 25 year old guitarist so happy, thanks for being so dedicated and hardworking since embers brother, much love from Ireland, come visit sometime soon 😁
My favorite songs from the this album are the ones which opens and closes. Kirisute Gomen and Shogun. Love them. And,if I had to pick a third, I'd go with Down From the Sky. But, well, why the hell should I pick a song, afterall? This whole album is fucking epic! My Trivium's favorite. Without a doubt. Oh, before I forget, thank you very much, Matt! I god damn enjoyed this playthrough, man! Outstanding!
You sir........Are a god! Not only do you do amazing live shows, but the fact you take time out of your day to go out your way to interact with your fans & stream live gaming, do Q&A, guitar clinic helping subscribers improve their playing & technique just shows that you care that much about your fans. Keep it up man 🤘🤘
best album , the one that made me an instant fan, i still remembered from the Shogun DVD tutorial about this song, that solo and riff around past 8 mins mark
I saw Trivium live 5 times, they played Shogun once, between album cycles and it was the single greatest moment of my life. I literally lost my voice from screaming so loudly, I couldn't speak for 3 days and it was worth every second.
finally complete the tracklist for shogun album. excluded bonus track upon the shores, poison the knife and iron maiden cover. another 10 years perhaps in 2027 for TSATS
Bit off topic but Matts voice covering The Sound Of Silence would be pretty fucking awesome. “The pulse is now quickening…” part sounded pretty similar.
agreed. seen them 3 times and its fucking pitch perfect every time. Corey does most of the screams but the ones Matt does shake the fucking ground. \m/
He streamed like a week ago on twitch where he relearned and played all the shogun songs to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the album and I'm assuming he's just uploading them individually to youtube
So is this played in B standard or is this just a 7 string tuning? Love that you played this on stream!! Wish you played more stuff on electric guitar!!
