Every time I think they couldn't get any better, they do something like this. I swear, Alex Bent joining this band really put the fire back into the writing, they're doing things I never thought possible now. This'll make 3 fantastic albums in a row with no signs of even slowing down, much less stopping. It's a good time to be a Trivium fan.

@Sam Not me. Been a fan since Ember. Haven't enjoyed any of their material post In Waves. I'm glad to hear they've remembered who they were.

[@dominicryangabriel7930]

This track sounds as though they have culminated their sound through attributing past and recent recordings into one.

[@Adaephonable]

@@mikeisgettinupset So you used to be a fan. It happens, bands evolve and some people dislike the changes. I personally have loved every single Trivium album. But I understand, I used to love InFlames but have not enjoyed anything past A Sense of Purpose.

[@pedrobernardo350]

agree with you

[@Wrathchild1995]

Listen to 'The Sin And The Sentence' and 'What The Dead Men Say', then try and say that again. Both albums are very hard hitting, this just continues on from the direction of those two albums. You've missed out.

[@LukeRosdahl]

@@mkw3980 Dusk Dismantled and A Skyline's Severance from In Waves tho . .

[@ismaeljrp1]

@@LukeRosdahl I honestly feel people that like Shogun the most are more Prog leaning. It's very different from their other albums that lean into Metalcore much more than Shogun... matter of fact nothing from Shogun is metalcore. It's very much a thrashy prog album. For me TSATS and WTDMS are superior albums, although not by much. Just to my tastes I think it's: 1. WTDMS 2. TSATS 3. Shogun 4. In Waves 5. Ascendancy 6. Vengeance Falls 7. Crusade 8. Ember 9. SITS

IMHO - Sayin Trivium just keep getting better and better is like saying that their previous stuff wasn't quite there, but the way I see it, they have always been awesome from the start, and every album is sick and equal in my opinion. Alex Bent is an awesome drummer, but the band is so talented, to always come up with such fantastic new material, which belies belief, as they did with their previous drummers, so credit goes to the Band as a whole... Alex just adds his "BENT" to what they create.. Can't wait for the new album..

[@lmmc6327]

Hear me out, this song is like a synthesis of all of Trivium's previous albums. Someone has already pointed out the nod to Silence in The Snow, and I think that at @ 7:25 that dude with the old logo on his shield is posting homage to The Crusade album, like the guy is literally fighting in The Crusades in this picture. I wonder if (really over thinking it here lmao) all of the Albums are part of one big story; a Trivium Universe, if you will. Maybe this album will tie them all together somehow 🤔

[@abrahamhernandez4070]

I always think to my self that every song has a story and it makes sense if you link them up together like Pull harder on the strings of your martyr it says how the king opens his genocidal wings and that matches up with the character on the albums maybe that character is the king that is being described in the song. And it just makes you think more how every single song and album might have a connection a Trivium Universe

[@lmmc6327]

Also, the guy that's wearing Blue on the beach is the same actor from the What The Dead Men Say video. I also wonder if the guy in the portrait at 7:07 is the "Zombie Guy" from the same video?
