It was written during Shogun!

@@killswitch2408 Yeah it was unfinished and didn't make it to the Shogun record.

Matt this song is beyond epic. I can't fucking wait for a headlining show to hear all the new materials that's come out the past couple years. Trivium is KILLING IT

Ikr? Spot on too, almost like he actually recorded it. Weird.

It’s almost like he wrote it right!

[@nickshepley2566]

The part around 4:10 is reminiscent of Torn Between Scylla & Charybdis

[@TigerGamingStream]

I’m just saying, it’s In Waves, Court of the Dragon, The Phalanx that opened up my screams and found my flow. That said, you’ll have a life-long fan out of me. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thank you Matt for getting me through all the ups and downs in life. You inspired me to pick up guitar in 2006 and I have you to thank! Much love from Dallas Texas 🤘🏼

I hope Matt, or the other members of Trivium never gets a copyright strike by their own record labels.

Me: mmm I wanna learn more Trivium songs Trivium: got a 7-string? Me: 🥲

[@skriller7102]

You could always just tune your 6 string down to BEADGB, while it may not sound great it's still better than nothing. It's what I did to learn some 7 string Dream Theater stuff before getting an actual 7 string.

How do you guys consecutively release back to back BANGERS. I believed for the longest time Shogun was your magnum opus, then SITS, then WTDMS came out then ITCOTD. JFC I thoroughly believe ya'll haven't even peaked yet and are already at the top. Keep the bangers coming Matt, will always support you and the boiz

FIRE.✔️✨

[@MetalMan1245]

Anyone else feel like he just sings everything up an octave from what he does on the album?

[@poorlake8107]

I don’t know, but he definitely does not do so. Sometimes within the layers vocals there is a lower octave somewhere like in the song “Beyond Oblivion” where it sounds more prominent in the mix but live he does sing the higher one. In the album the tone of his voice sounds much darker and raspier than the one he uses here but it is most definitely unsustainable when singing five days a week on stream. Just changing where one positions a note can make it sound more thin or full thus making it sound like it is higher or lower than it actually is.

[@MrPeter924]

Great music roll rock song 🤘👍

Good job when I can hear you live. Take note when live your not louder than the rest

[@dimandqueen4693]

My moral compass immediately goes out the window when a man who can sing shows a bit too much upper arm. 10/10 song and he do be kindda cute

Wheres the playthrough for Dragon Deez?? I was so sure there was one on your channel boss 🙃

[@imacashew.]

I feel like the vocal is a little too loud in the mix

[@Pec3t]

imo vocals are problem in general. Track is great. Anyway, loooking at the comments, people don't see any problem in Matt's vocals, so probably I'm alone with this:)

[@midnitesnack120]

Your vocals sound way harder and heavier on the recordings of pretty much everything and it’s not even close to the same live. Maybe its to conserve your voice and not blow it out? I don’t know. What I do know is that it’s a huge bummer to hear you singing in a way softer tone live. It takes away from a huge element of the sound, especially this one with the ending.

[@nameless7797]

Yes, since Silence in the Snow era he is singing to clean/soft. Just in the recordings he's still badass.

[@joshpaladino7128]

He's mentioned on Twitch streams that the screaming technique he uses now is much safer than his old technique which caused him to blow out his voice. He still records the albums with the old technique, but for everyday purposes on Twitch he's not going all out or else he would blow out his voice again. Hope that makes sense, that's how he's explained it in the past.

[@Bruh-ob9mi]

Better to have a healthy Matt with a softer voice than an unhealthy Matt with no voice

[@DangeHD]

@@Bruh-ob9mi That´s the thing most people don´t understand critizing his vocals, yes his old style sounds better but rather have a compromise than nothing at all.

[@Bruh-ob9mi]

@@DangeHD What really gets to me about matters like this is the apparent lack of care for the artist’s health, happiness, and desires. If you’re a fan of an artist, wouldn’t you want them to be happy and healthy?
