    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.

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!!!

    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
