Matt Heafy (Trivium) Reacts to 'In The Court of the Dragon' Fan Cover |

[@curtiswardley6312]

Yoooo this is incredible, I can’t believe Matt is reacting to my video here. Thank you Matt and to all the other Kings who have checked out the vid/commented/subbed. As a big fan I’m kinda at a loss for words haha. It’s a pleasure putting these covers together and trying to do the songs the justice they deserve, the fact that other people dig them too is so cool. I’ll have to revisit Matt’s playthrough as I did notice a couple parts I didn’t completely get right. Again this is so awesome, thanks so much again Matt. P.S. Hair and beard tutorial dropping next week

[@Fend1k]

Curtis I'm really glad for you :D Been watching your covers since a year now, wow mate. Congrats!)

[@Fend1k]

And waiting hair and beard tutorial :DDD

[@mynamesleeewis]

So happy for you man!

[@The_JustJoshing]

Congrats man. Your covers are amazing. Definitely the most accurate on KZbin

[@Bdizzle-tm6bt]

Been watching your videos since the beginning it's so cool to see this happen well deserved man!

[@TriviumMemes]

Can we just note that this cover was released on release day not even a day after the song was released :D

[@CristianKirk]

He's from Australia, so he got the song right away. Not trying to discredit him, cause it's massive anyway!

[@randinho8872]

Yeah I'm sure he done it within 3 hours of it dropping, although that may have been UK time of when it dropped

[@mart2242]

Illuminati confirmed!

[@artursbriedis173]

Maybe this will finally give Curtis a push for Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis cover, we've all been asking him for. :D

One could but hope ^^

Low-key favourite song.

[@mauro1427]

two years later and he still refuses to cover torn between lmao

[@cullenkenneth5980]

You see that Curtis? Even Matt himself is envious of your mane.

[@mybandpigvomithas3sales200]

Aren't we all

[@eyeballs_ian]

The fact that Matt says “Oh shit” to Corey’s solo and Curtis being able to play it just makes this cover so fucking great!!

[@mika9528]

How does Matt not know Curtis??? He does the best covers of Triviut😆

Curtis has the BEST Trivium covers on KZbin.

[@The_JustJoshing]

Agreed. Definitely the most accurate

[@MrAngrim]

Indeed. He’s deserved to be popular

[@arthurtillet6467]

Curtis Wardley is just the best. His videos allow me to work on so many trivium riffs. It's impressive how accurate he is.

[@ledarbyromeo9667]

I've used several of Curtis' vids for certain riffs I've wanted to get better with past couple years.

[@MoiseDosSantos]

Nice to see my boy Curtis make it on the MKH channel!

[@Tazzy16100]

3:40 i love it “Oh Shit” matt’s impressed !

[@advaitpetiwale9596]

yes, Matt.. he most definitely learned by ear. This cover was up within an hour of the music video release, and way many hours before your playthough and subsequent guitar lesson dropped.

[@barefootjakejake7765]

Looks like yall should invite this dude to play this song at one of your shows, seems to be he's earned it🤘😈🤘

[@TheRealMiKe]

Can believe that you just reacted to his video hell yeaah!! Can't imagine what Curtis is going through right now xD

[@The_JustJoshing]

He’ll probably wake up to the news. He lives in Australia it’s about 5:30 AM there right now.

[@TheRealMiKe]

@@The_JustJoshing yeah I know he already heard that matt whatched it on his stream but didn't see the vid

[@InsidiousTyrant]

Am so happy for Curtis that you reacted to this Matt! He has incredible Trivium covers.

[@EvilVileDevil]

So unbelievably awesome to see Matt react to a fan. And for Curtis to be so killer he gets kudos

"That dude" I mean... Curtis covered the whole Trivium discography, just sayin' :'D

[@mrJebus311]

I see you too are a man that appreciates Curtis's hair. Ask him for the hair care tutorial.

[@LilGreenDragn]

Curtis is the beauty guru we all deserve

[@extremeultimateguy]

Hair aside, he also plays a mean Washington is Next too...

[@jejehorizon2594]

Curtis just made almost every trivium song

[@Madddeyyyy]

Heafy we love your hair too lol

[@GatheringHall]

I've always wondered if members of these bands that do reactions to their own content have to battle against the copyright shit. I bet they do lol. Love you guys, Trivium is one of my biggest influences in writing my own music. Thanks for the years of master class song writing Matt!

[@rip-sama5717]

Curtis does the Best covers of Trivium 🔥🤘🏼Matt you're my idol 🤘🏼

[@johnpaulogarcia7456]

He finally gets the recognition that he deserved. Seriously, this Curtis Wardley got the best trivium covers in all youtube.

Trivium is my favourite band! I only pray to Trivium continues to bring us this kind of awesome songs! You all rule! You all 4 mates are very good musicians, keep it up!

[@s.e.n3264]

Yea man Curtis is a beast! I found his chann a few years ago when I was having trouble learning a song from Sin.

[@Louderto]

i love how real you are. you take obvious pleasure in hearing you music being played by someone else. The whole mainstream music industry can learn a lot from you and your peers.

[@littlearmguitar]

I'm so happy for you Curtis! 👏🎉 The Master himself made a video on your awesome cover!! 👍

[@iv9496]

Hey Matt. You probably wont read this but still, I just wanted to thank you for the amazing music you guys produce! helps me go through a lot of personal problems I currently have at the moment! I really wanted to see you guys live since you guys are performing near my city this month. But, unfortunately I just got Covid a couple of days ago! I hope you guys come back one day! please keep doing what you guys are doing! truly one of if not the best band ever! Thank you!

[@ozziecollett3088]

Legend has it that same day an open guitar position for trivium was found on indeed

[@rudolfschenker]

Wardley is a beast, he's been doing top-quality Trivium covers for years now.

[@kittenswithketchup]

I just figured out what the riff in the verse reminds me of. It's almost identical to Dream Theater's "Panic Attack."

[@ledarbyromeo9667]

One of my fav tracks of all time.
