LYRICS
Blind-folded and gagged, stood waiting
With the whole world: my firing squad
At the edge of the world I'm faced out
Staring the sun right in the eye
Vultures circle above, hyenas mocking the kill
Excrement drooling down their chins
Atop the cliffs I look down, into the starving Hell-mouth
The rabid foam crashes hard on its teeth
Their mouth's salivate
Fantasizing my gruesome ending
This world looks down upon
A man who can stand on his own two feet
As they're feeding their guns: "Ready, aim"
They say I'll live, if I die for their cause
Living under the rule of fellow Cro-Magnon fool
They fear who leads and will kill to stay still
Their mouth's salivate
Fantasizing my gruesome ending
This world looks down upon
A man who can stand on his own two feet
Without eating from their claws
Life feels quite like Hell should
But this Hells so cold
Pull another knife out
Stick it with rest of them
When my back is full
Turn me around to face it
Life feels quite like Hell should
But this Hells so cold
Pull another knife out
Stick it with rest of them
When my back is full
Turn me around to face it
Such melancholy, burning the stars from skies
As we melt, drowning inside their bloodied eyes
Hope is ravaged, running from lacerations
Sob so heavily, we choke, then we die
Die
Life feels quite like Hell should
But this Hells so cold
Pull another knife out
Stick it with rest of them
When my back is full
Turn me around to face it [4x]
Go
Sob so heavily, we choke, then we die

[@GrayWoIf]

You never heard a Bad Religion album thanks to them I knew the word Trepidation before I ever heard Trivium's A Gunshsot To The Head Of Trepidation.

[@andrewlees4369]

Shogun is definitely their most technical and melodic album. Ascendancy was pure brutal. Shogun is their prime, my opinion

[@LifeLongMETALHead83]

The Crusade is more melodic. Shogun is great mix of the melodic style of The Crusade mixed with the brutal sound of Ascendancy.

[@-FREAKSHOW]

Trivium my dudes!

[@markamodia7835]

best albums of trivium ascendancy the crusade and shogun that albums I have in my cd collection

[@jasonfanclub4267]

I love metal when there are also nice melodies and harmonies

[@ihateeveryone8161]

I think for nostalgic reasons I'll always see Ascendancy as their best album, but I can absolutely understand why people think Shogun is their peak, its such a banger.

+Andy Shafer Right here bro

[@MCOGroupNews]

Their whole discography is incredible

[@pkmnyellowog]

+Andy Shafer Nah man, both are just as good as one another in their own way, even though the differences can actually be looked at easily, I can still hear the normal, "Trivium" ways in their guitar technique! :) Personally, I LOVED the Shogun album, mostly due to its thrash instincts and sick guitar action! No matter how many times I listen to "He Who Spawned the Furies" or "Of Prometheus and the Crucifix", it is just as good as the first time I have listened to it! The people that usually hate this band is because they mostly moved away from a certain genre they might have adored! To me, it seems interesting the way Trivium experiments with their sound! The Silence in the Snow album may be too light or mid-tempo for me, but it still is fun to try and listen to something new! :) (By the way, the more I listened to "Silence in the Snow", the more it was stuck in my head... XD)

[@nandor1964]

Gotta be the only band that made my english vocabulary better. Not too many other bands have lyrics to figure out what they mean. Matt is definitely well educated.

Trivium's song names enhance my english vocabulary with words I have never heard - best kind of education :D

[@predalien922]

I totally agree, their lyrics are sweet cream for the taste! :D They are full of different meanings and most of the songs on Shogun are connected with mythology or books. Some people are also fed up with the same lyrics about love, hearts broken and sex!! Trivium brings something different and more cultered! ; )

[@kerrigor666]

Sobek croc You'd love Amon Amarth then. ALL their songs are about viking warriors, viking history or Norse Mythology. Twilight of the Thunder God is a good starter album.

[@lukejoynes9799]

[@chickenlolipop7501]

FRRRR THO 🙌🙌🙌

[@Phant0mGetsuga993]

Throes: Struggle relating to life or death Perdition: Eternal damnation; hell This song is about struggling to escape from hell, but failing over and over again.

[@Omen_Seven]

I think there's actually a bit more to it, at least the video. The man in the video is obviously struggling, but the chains of hell continue to pull him back. He eventually breaks free of them, only to come to face to with justice (the woman), who then turns him to stone. I think what the song and video are saying is that, despite however much one may struggle, there is no escaping from the fate we've carved for ourselves, and we all must face the consequences of our actions. Certainly sounds like something Matt would write.

[@lakeside1168]

+Aaron Turner I like you interpretation. Makes sense. Has lots of meaning.

[@Omen_Seven]

RagingRogue 29 It was easy for me to come up with because that's the sort of thing I would write. I actually used to write a lot of songs with that sort of somewhat obscure symbolism, and much in the same style as Matt, so I kind of know how he thinks when it comes to lyrics.

[@lakeside1168]

Thats cool, same genre?

[@Omen_Seven]

RagingRogue 29 Basically, yeah. it all depended on what I felt like doing that day. The stuff I wrote usually ranged from thrash metal to death metal, to black metal.

[@the.gentlemanrogue]

I like when Matt said in an interview that if you like albums like Ascendancy better, then put it in your stereo and enjoy it! :-)

[@matthewtaylor1785]

I actually really like the vocals in this song for some reason. They provide both a sense of melody and a sense of aggression at the same time. I guess a lot of Matt Heafy’s vocals are like that but they just hit different in this song

[@chickenlolipop7501]

Imo it works so well because it's like a beautifully tragic anthem and the mix of melodic singing with the harsh growls adds to the dynamic of the riffs in a way that just perfectly captures the feel of the song almost like the motivation you get with the guitar solos mixed with anguish of the lyrics and how tough life can be it brings you up and brings you down just like life such a beautiful duality that makes this song an all time classic that will always be one of their best songs

[@magdachlebicka3895]

My mom introduced me to a few metal and rock bands when I was a kid. My first fav band was Scorpions (and they still are). After my main Scorpions phase I started looking for other good music, and I got interested in Nirvana and Rammstein. Than my friend introduced BvB to me and I got a metalcore phase. I fell for Bring Me The Horizon, especially for their old albums (pre-Sempiternal and 3-4 songs from Sempiternal itself). Thanks to their deathcore vibe I realised, that I'm looking for something harder and heavier. Like a year ago I got to Metallica - that's a long story, I have known them since 2014, but I hadn't been interested in them that time (I was in the middle of Scorpions phase). Starting from Metallica, I entered the metal word - I know now whole history of metal, most important bands and genres, and I have plenty of band shirts in my wardrobe. I've becomen a close minded metalhead for a few months - well, I wasn't satanist or an enemy od everything but metal, but still, my mind was: "the new genres are good for people that like it, but I'm a true metalhead and I listen only to real metal like Thrash Metal Big Four". I almost forgot about my beloved Bring Me The Horizon (especially after "Amo", seriously, what is that), even though they were my 2nd fav band, right behind Scorpions. I found myself in listening to Megadeth and Metallica. And after around half of the year I found Trivium - Shogun. The breakdown was so fucking awesome, so great, memorable and everything, that I felt an instant love for this band. Now I'm finally free and I appreciate all genres - this is no worse than Tornado Of Souls or Ride The Lightning, and it's metalcore! Thrashy and melodeathy, but metalcore! I don't know, how are you doing this, guys, but I love you!

[@se7endreams]

this raspy vocal style suited matt the best. gave the songs so much more power. this was trivium's greatest era. so glad i got to see them live during this period.

[@zdf14]

Clearly they all just need to grow out their hair again and maybe we'll have another album like this.

[@zdf14]

David Wilcox Yes, I am aware. But the headbangs are worth it.

[@Kxngxerxes]

+David Wilcox these people have no idea all the work long hair is but it's soooo worth it lol

[@Wulfeylol]

+ZACK HWC and they need Travis Smith back.

[@DerSensei_yt]

+Tefyt Paw because Guitars are not played with your hands but with your hair. EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT.

[@gabesaintaubin346]

I say bring Travis Smith back.

[@gajo1256]

Matt's hair is awesome here \m/

[@nikolaosmagalios7715]

Ascendancy, The crusade and Shogun are true masterpieces! They are among the best metal albums in metal and rock history! Perfection!

[@ifeeldeadinsideD2]

i love these and bfmv so much

[@Alexander5R]

This song always pumps me up in the gym! Shogun is their best album.

[@LoganHutchinsGuitar]

I wish they would come back to this. :( In my opinion, Shogun was the pinnacle. Their newer albums are alright, but they don't grip me the same way.

[@ChrisPeetersEECE]

I agree that their old albums were works of art. I wouldn't say that their new stuff isn't good it's just different. It's a different Trivium then it was back then.

[@James-oh4xd]

Hi! I'm from the future. Have you tried listening to the Sin and the Sentence?

[@maxwelld23]

Ascendency was the pinnacle let's not get it twisted.

[@scrathed]

I hope you gave the recent album a chance then, imo "Beyond Oblivion" is one of their very best songs

[@semyzenteamade5853]

Scrath for me the entire album!

[@waynedavidson1238]

they don't make music like this cause they grew up and as they grew up there music became much better I'm,a trivium fans and will always be one

[@samueldyke5745]

Ahh when this awesome band actually played awesomely and had superb music videos, man i miss those days please go back there again \m/
