Wow... This is so amazing... So haunting... And actually one of the few Interpretations which I can honestly say I watched all the way through!! Thanks for posting this :D
Words can't explain how awesome it is someone from Trivium finally saw this, nevertheless to hear from Matt himself that one of your covers was an inspiration to play the song live, nothing short of an honor. Once again, great job man!
Sweet baby Jesus this is amazing. I watched the entire thing in utter amazement. Two things I absolutely love brought together; Trivium, and the piano!
Seriously, this is the best damn video ever. I would kill to have a piano player like you in Oregon lol. I'm a guitarist and Shogun is my all time favorite song, I use THIS particular video to show people (metal haters in particular) exactly how complex and amazing metal can be once you get past the sound and focus more on the notes. Keep it up!
This just goes to show the similarities between classical music and modern metal! Sounds just like something a 19th century virtuoso might have composed! I am mesmerized!
Can anyone else imagine this now with a full orchestra now? And the song played sorta like an Epica song? Now i want to hear that. @Scrupis, a freaken awesome cover! Please make your way over to a studio, or to a piano with a USB input and record that man, because this is the most amazing thing i've heard on the piano for a very long time bro. Thank you very much for this.
Wow dude. Amazing cover. A lot of talent right there. And nice switch to the middle section, I exspected an akward transition,but you did a great job. Really shows Triviums more classical influences when you hear the changes and riffs. All around amazing cover .\,,/
Hey, man. This was very badass. I like how you're using an actual piano rather than a digital keyboard, it makes it sound more solid in so many different ways. And the way you changed some stuff around, made it sound very epic. This definitely exceeded my expectations; the way you include the vocal melody is a can full of asskickary. Fuckin' A-class man. :D
Wow man, one of my favorite bands and you covered this superbly haha. I liked the alterations to make it fit the piano. I got so into it i was singing alont haha! Kudos bro, keep on playing; I'm sure there's a calling for you out there somewhere. :D
Please, can you play this song again? I want to hear it again but in the version of this one, 2018. You really are amazing. This song is, for me, a masterpiece. Greetings.
Fucking hell man that's so beautiful. I love this song anyway but this is an incredible cover. You play it with a lot of feeling which this song needs. Really well done dude this is great. If you ever record this I'll pay for a copy cos I want this on my ipod.
Thanks so much guys for the support! That twitter post from Matt seriously just made my day! There will be more vids coming. I promise
dude matt heafy just tweeted this!
Great job! Definitely one of the best covers we've seen :D
Trivium's EPIC masterpiece has now been made into an EPIC piano masterpiece
that is freaking great!! I got goosebumps all over man! This was truly awesome!!
Oh, and Matt sent me here! \m/
This is BEAUTIFUL, it shows off his skill and creativity as well as Trivium themselves.
I watched this video for the first time 3 years ago and I'm watching again today...enough said!
Wow... This is so amazing... So haunting... And actually one of the few Interpretations which I can honestly say I watched all the way through!! Thanks for posting this :D
I want to hug you right now...best thing I've seen since Apocaliptica. Hope you get your fame like them, the world needs to hear you!
