Our Take

TRIVIUM's "Shogun" is like a rollercoaster ride through a medieval battlefield, with relentless riffs and thunderous drums that will have you headbanging in your chainmail helmet. This album is a true masterpiece of modern metal, combining the technical precision of prog with the raw aggression of thrash. Matt Heafy's vocals soar like a knight charging into battle, while Corey Beaulieu's guitar work is as sharp as Excalibur itself.

The production on "Shogun" is crystal clear, allowing every bone-crushing breakdown and intricate guitar solo to shine through. From the epic title track to the blistering "Kirisute Gomen", TRIVIUM proves they are true masters of their craft. This album will leave you feeling like you've just won a jousting tournament, exhilarated and ready for more.

But it's not all swords and shields on "Shogun". TRIVIUM infuses moments of melody and introspection, showing a depth and range that sets them apart from their metal peers. Tracks like "Into the Mouth of Hell We March" and "Throes of Perdition" offer a dynamic contrast to the relentless aggression, giving the listener a chance to catch their breath before diving back into the fray.

In the end, "Shogun" is a triumph for TRIVIUM, a band that continues to push the boundaries of modern metal. So raise your ale horn, don your armour, and prepare for a musical adventure like no other. TRIVIUM's "Shogun" is a metal masterpiece that will have you shouting "Hail and Kill" from the ramparts.

About the artist

Trivium

TRIVIUM: The Floridian metalheads that melted faces and shattered expectations Hailing from the sweltering depths of Orlando, TRIVIUM have cemented their status as one of the most exciting and innovative metal bands of the 21st century. With a sonic assault that blends elements of thrash, metalcore, and melodic death metal, these guys are not ones to be pigeonholed. Led by the guitar wizardry of Matt Heafy, who effortlessly shreds like a man possessed, TRIVIUM have consistently pushed the boundaries of what metal can be. Their blistering riffs and thunderous drums have earned them a legion of devoted fans, known affectionately as the "Trivium Nation." But what truly sets TRIVIUM apart is their willingness to experiment and evolve. From their early days as teenage thrash prodigies to their more recent forays into progressive and atmospheric territory, these guys are always pushing the envelope. And let's not forget Matt Heafy's distinct vocals, which soar from guttural growls to haunting cleans with ease. But don't let their technical prowess fool you - TRIVIUM know how to write a damn catchy tune. Tracks like "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr" and "In Waves" have become anthems for a new generation of metalheads, while their latest album, "What the Dead Men Say," showcases a band at the height of their powers. So whether you're a diehard headbanger or a casual listener looking for something a bit heavier, TRIVIUM have something for everyone. Just be prepared to have your face melted and your expectations shattered.
