💥😎💥Its not just you, It Is Incredibly Excellent from start to finish, both the solo version and the vocals included version...I cannot express my enthusiasm enough!💥! The performance does Full justice to the Soul of the music!💥😎💥!
Discovered Trivium a few months back, their music really struck a chord so I started looking more into it including the band members... Gotta say Matt has to be one of the coolest people out there!
Been following them since 2005 and man, this band has always been a leading light of music for me and Matt is a top guy, hope to meet them all some day
!💥! A tremendous performance, just unbelievably well-played and figured-out! I'll be ready to hear that masterwork on an Imperial Grand Piano in the near future!💥!
Man, Matt has really killed it in improving his vocals. I’ve seen his live shows where he struggles mid way and now he can make it through full shows in one breath.. amazing.
In my opinion Shogun is the best and most complete song you ever done. When I bought my MKH 7 string signature 2 years ago I played this song beside Calamity all day long
Maybe this is the reason Trivium played Shogun when I saw them in LA last year! Hearing Shogun live - ALL 11 MINUTES - was SICKENING!!!! I was so shook when I heard the intro!!! The last 2 times I’ve seen Trivium they played Down From The Sky (one of my all time favorites) but Shogun?!??? It took the cake. 🎂 I gotta thank this guy for inspiring Trivium to play Shogun live!!!
Dude this is tight all around. Like this guy must be freaking out knowing his cover had Matt singing and screaming over it. Good job tho bro, you're an insane pianist.
Epic! Matt’s voice fits in so well with the piano. I hope to hear Trivium play with an orchestra one day. So many songs would suit it. Especially the new tunes!
Shogun is my favourite song/masterpiece ever. This made me fall in love with the song even more. Which I didn't know was at all possible. Matt your voice gets better and better every time I hear you. The dude on the piano is incredible also!
I've been a huge Trivium fan since roughly 2005. I basically grew up on your music. It's one of my dreams to see you all live, and I hope I get to fulfill that. Side note: you were both amazing in this. Thank you.
I remember in high school as I was first being introduced to metal, some of my buddies got me into Trivium by playing the Shogun album. To this day still my favorite album and song. The journey the song takes you on was just like nothing I'd experienced before. Then one day I stumbled across this guy's original piano cover of the song and it blew my mind. I'm glad Matt saw the update and gave him a shout out.
Awesome connection by two total strangers. Matt’s very genuine and definitely digs this, big question is how much will Shawn be tripping out when he gets word of this moment being a Trivium fan ….. Shawn great playing for sure, thank you !!!! 🤘
Won't walk the Earth a specter Won't hold my tongue from lashing out This is my writ of honor Drawn by the blood that I have shed The beasts will soon assemble (the beasts will soon assemble) Conjoining in their putrid flesh Their hearts don't beat desire They pump violence and poison Flesh opens up, blood's retreating Flesh opens up, blood's retreating Death's embracing, all is ending Death's embracing, all is ending Time will not heal all of your pain I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down The monsters walk among us (the monsters walk among us) Leeching the blood out from what's good Infecting at transmission Swallowing innocence from life Our time has come to stand forth (our time has come to stand forth) From wretched womb from which they feed Behold the loathsome demons Send them into the hell they made Flesh opens up, blood's retreating Flesh opens up, blood's retreating Death's embracing, all is ending Death's embracing, all is ending Time will not heal all of your pain I cannot wait for it all to come crashing Down on your face, ripping your veins out Your insides win and kill you from within And the seas will rise as serpents Spawned from the mouth of earth's surface Soon the skies will fall fast, burning Open wide, and eat the suffering The pulse is now quickening Softly, it's painstaking Look within to calm the storm Raging inside the form There's no turning back For I'm witness to the changing Take all you have brought to sacrifice For you will lose much more If you succeed in this battle You still will lose so much more The pulse is now quickening Softly, it's painstaking Look within to calm the storm Raging inside the form There's no turning back For I'm witness to the changing Take all you have brought to sacrifice For you will lose much more If you succeed in this battle You still will lose so much more Time has come to face all evil Time has come to face all evil Time has come to face all evil Time has come to face all evil Now the seas rise up as serpents Spawned from the mouth of earth's surface As the skies now fall fast burning Open wide, and face the suffering The inferno spews out hell's horde Casting the flames upon our world As death eclipses all the light We make our last stand 'til death, fight Time will not heal all of your pain I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down Time will not heal all of your pain I cannot wait for it all to come crashing Down on your face, ripping your veins out Your insides win and kill you from within
I remember this dude from years ago! I remember watching his videos on Mudvayne, All That Remains, etc. I hope he gets back into it again. I go back and randomly watch his stuff. Reminds me of such a simpler time in life.
Should get this guy on tour as a guest artist on Shogun. I can see this being an epic special spot on your set list. From Saskatchewan, Canada Fuckin awesome work 🤟
Really impressive ! and it give me some ideas... Could be f****** amazing if you do something like SM from Metallica, with Shogun of course ! My favorit song ever ! (Sorry for my english)
I love that during 2008 we'd succeeded in a battle and lost so much morc, and during 2022 nall is ending, time will not heal nall of others' pain, we have cinnamon to the hell others made, we'd succeeded in a battle and lost so much moors, and others can nopen wide to eat suffering! Your vocals here are brilliant, Matt! Shawn and yourself have performed excellently! 😃😄
!💥😎💥! We've got this Baby Grand Piano in this luminous florid two story place I call the Grand Lobby! Employees would come up to the piano and pour their souls into their playing on breaks throughout the day and night...I wish Shawn Smith worked there...Each note he plays is just spot on with the Articulation, etc...He's an incredible Talent Stack...I would advise he just keep on keeping on!💥!
Nothing, just practice some more on timing and technique and wait for your voice to age. Keep practicing and honing your voice from this young age and u will freaking rock!
This is so incredible right??
Absolutely
Yes, but play shogun live.
@@Carlos_Vla the album, right? RIGHT? 😤
💥😎💥Its not just you, It Is Incredibly Excellent from start to finish, both the solo version and the vocals included version...I cannot express my enthusiasm enough!💥! The performance does Full justice to the Soul of the music!💥😎💥!
You are one of my favorite musicians. Amazing talent & you're very down to earth. Keep up the good work, sir.
I cannot even fathom how cool and honoring this must feel. That was beautiful. From both of you. Wow
It reminds me why I do what I do!
@@matthewkheafy ❤❤ thanks for doing what you do, bald guy from Trivium #2
I was not expecting Matt singing the song, and with the piano, amazing.

Isn't the same without Travis drumming
@@RODNEYSGARDENINGADVENTURES no offense to Travis but Alex is 10x the drummer.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
This was posted back in 2008 or 2009 originally. I'm glad you finally saw it.
Matt, it's time to re-release the experimental acoustic Shogun album.
!💥! A tremendous performance, just unbelievably well-played and figured-out! I'll be ready to hear that masterwork on an Imperial Grand Piano in the near future!💥!
I love it so much!
Imagine opening up UA-cam and finding Matt Heafy has done vocals over your Trivium cover... _whoa._
Man, Matt has really killed it in improving his vocals. I’ve seen his live shows where he struggles mid way and now he can make it through full shows in one breath.. amazing.
A full show in one breath?! Haha I know what you mean though. He's worked his ass off
That's my homie!
Congratulations on knowing a musical genius, fam! 😃😄
I love this piano version! Good to know that he finally saw this cover.

This was a Collab that I didn't know I needed this morning. 🤘🔥

I've known that guy for a while now. I love his version of Parkway Drive - The River. Sadly he hasn't uploaded anything in the last nine years. 😢

Same here. I got the privilege to see them life for the first time nearly a year ago. When the time comes do it. You will not regret it
Yessss! Ive watched this piano so many times for years and always hoped that someone from Trivium would stumble across it!
Incredible collaboration! Such an honor for this talented pianist and Matt!
Made a Friday a Spectacular Friday! Wow! That was wonderful!
Sounds wonderful! Man, Trivium has the best fans for sure

One of the greatest voices in metal world 🤘🤘🤘🤘
What a talented pianist... And this vocal... I'm shocked 🔥
So cool, guys! Bravo! 👏🏾
I had this cover on repeat years ago, I'm happy this finally happend
Won't walk the Earth a specter
Won't hold my tongue from lashing out
This is my writ of honor
Drawn by the blood that I have shed
The beasts will soon assemble (the beasts will soon assemble)
Conjoining in their putrid flesh
Their hearts don't beat desire
They pump violence and poison
Flesh opens up, blood's retreating
Flesh opens up, blood's retreating
Death's embracing, all is ending
Death's embracing, all is ending
Time will not heal all of your pain
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down
The monsters walk among us (the monsters walk among us)
Leeching the blood out from what's good
Infecting at transmission
Swallowing innocence from life
Our time has come to stand forth (our time has come to stand forth)
From wretched womb from which they feed
Behold the loathsome demons
Send them into the hell they made
Flesh opens up, blood's retreating
Flesh opens up, blood's retreating
Death's embracing, all is ending
Death's embracing, all is ending
Time will not heal all of your pain
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing
Down on your face, ripping your veins out
Your insides win and kill you from within
And the seas will rise as serpents
Spawned from the mouth of earth's surface
Soon the skies will fall fast, burning
Open wide, and eat the suffering
The pulse is now quickening
Softly, it's painstaking
Look within to calm the storm
Raging inside the form
There's no turning back
For I'm witness to the changing
Take all you have brought to sacrifice
For you will lose much more
If you succeed in this battle
You still will lose so much more
The pulse is now quickening
Softly, it's painstaking
Look within to calm the storm
Raging inside the form
There's no turning back
For I'm witness to the changing
Take all you have brought to sacrifice
For you will lose much more
If you succeed in this battle
You still will lose so much more
Time has come to face all evil
Time has come to face all evil
Time has come to face all evil
Time has come to face all evil
Now the seas rise up as serpents
Spawned from the mouth of earth's surface
As the skies now fall fast burning
Open wide, and face the suffering
The inferno spews out hell's horde
Casting the flames upon our world
As death eclipses all the light
We make our last stand 'til death, fight
Time will not heal all of your pain
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down
Time will not heal all of your pain
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing
Down on your face, ripping your veins out
Your insides win and kill you from within
Known about this version for years. So happy you found it :D
Some masterpieces simply scream to be immortalised by playing with orchestra
So good. Goosebumps!
Dude these reaction videos are just awesome
I remember this dude from years ago! I remember watching his videos on Mudvayne, All That Remains, etc. I hope he gets back into it again. I go back and randomly watch his stuff. Reminds me of such a simpler time in life.
Beautiful and brilliant! This is talent and fandom at it's absolute best! Please get this guy on a future album.
This is so good keep it going mr pianist
Should get this guy on tour as a guest artist on Shogun. I can see this being an epic special spot on your set list. From Saskatchewan, Canada Fuckin awesome work 🤟
Thats so fuckin beautiful
INSANELY BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!
Proof of a great song is it can be played in any style and still sound fantastic awesome cover 👏
Do you remember every lyric you’ve ever written? Ten albums worth of songs and remembering every part is very impressive.
Matt doesn't write lyrics the traditional way. He uses a mad-libs book from the early '90s.
Dont forget that he is literally standing in front of a 3 screen computer, so he can pull up any lyrics he wants to :D
he literally practices every song
I don’t 😬
He was reading. Makes sense for a song they almost never play live.
That video is a classic
Beautiful piano cover! Hope this is you brushing off the cobwebs to put in the setlist for the upcoming tour!!
This album got me into trivium I love u guys
This is insane. These goosebumps....
This is masterpiece! very impressive..
This is nuts!!!
This is great.
GEESEbumps 🤘
This dude nailed it - 3:53 epic
Wow, this masterpiece!
Amazing 👏👏👏👏👏👏 🤜🤛
Matt you're 👌
The guy hasn't uploaded in 9 years. I hope he is doing fine.
He's my homie he is doing fine just hasn't played in awhile
@@Battousai_248 he needs to get back to playing. Too gifted!
@@Battousai_248 has he seen this video? hopefully it inspires him to get back into playing!
@@Nemesis_Slime I’m pretty sure someone commented on his video saying Matt reacted to him on twitch. He responded saying he was sad he missed it
Great
It's awesome 😎
This video is so epic
The best Trivium song to date.
One of my fav songs... how many breakdowns? how many epic moments of never-ending Samurai fighting inducing solos?!
Now you should see his piano version of Pull Harder On The Strings of Your Martyr.
Legends
Really impressive ! and it give me some ideas... Could be f****** amazing if you do something like SM from Metallica, with Shogun of course ! My favorit song ever ! (Sorry for my english)
Hell yeah 😁
I can't wait
Amazing! 👏👏👏👏👏
Let’s go!
this makes me miss the B standard era of Trivium ;-;
🤘🤘🤘
The interlude was very weird on the piano player's behalf but overall, it was great!
I love that during 2008 we'd succeeded in a battle and lost so much morc, and during 2022 nall is ending, time will not heal nall of others' pain, we have cinnamon to the hell others made, we'd succeeded in a battle and lost so much moors, and others can nopen wide to eat suffering! Your vocals here are brilliant, Matt! Shawn and yourself have performed excellently! 😃😄
I'm request A skyline's severance
Fifth Trivium member confirmed. 😅
They could use a pianist in Trivium, tbh. It would elevate their atmosphere, imo.
!💥! You guys should audition flr American Idol...Do they stil have that $how nowadays...It wouldn't even be fair!💥😎💥!
!💥😎💥Go on The Voice or some $hit...It'd be lime sfealing candy from a baby to win that $hit!💥😎💥!
!💥😎💥! In spite ofthe mis-spellings you know what I'm talking about...Im totally blown away by the synergistic virtuosic performance!💥!
!💥😎💥! We've got this Baby Grand Piano in this luminous florid two story place I call the Grand Lobby! Employees would come up to the piano and pour their souls into their playing on breaks throughout the day and night...I wish Shawn Smith worked there...Each note he plays is just spot on with the Articulation, etc...He's an incredible Talent Stack...I would advise he just keep on keeping on!💥!
I have a metal band but only 20 subs lol what am I doing wrong 😅
Nothing, just practice some more on timing and technique and wait for your voice to age. Keep practicing and honing your voice from this young age and u will freaking rock!
