Lyrics:
He who walks the fire breathes
Unlike the rest
living by the bloody creed
kirisute gomen
air of battle tasting stale
reeks of deceit
send the bitter straight to hell
kirisute gomen
in their wretched guts all they want is to feed
unending, covetous hunger known as greed
as the last legion makes it's way to the skies
i can see in their eyes
they've already died
inside, but as for the outside
i'll take their fucking heads
quake has bred with the storm
conceiving war
wicked stampeding hordes
kirisute gomen
i will never be what they
want me to
i live by my own path in life
no turning
back now, i won't be held down
forced into a shallow grave built upon their empty ways
there's no turning back
there's hell to pay, such disarray
a bloodied mess, flesh masquerade
with all the blood making a flood
you made your path by crossing us
he who spits the fire seethes
all he detests
decapitating, bloody creed
kirisute gomen

Probably the best album opener, ever.
This album is truly flawless.
Could not agree more, Shogun is genius. However, I would also like to state Ascendancy was just as great!

I remember in 2006, I told a supposed "metal connoisseur" that Trivium was my favourite band and that they were going places. He laughed and said he'd never heard of them and that he heard from a friend that they sucked. The day this album came out at the end of 2008, I heard the first track and said it was fantastic - an equivalent to Machine Head's 'The Blackening'. This time a friend of mine, one of those guys who only plays Pantera and 'heavy-ass' metal, said it sucked. I questioned my taste of the genre in its entirety. Fast forward today, almost 10 years later, I see this track being praised monumentally (albeit still with divisive opinions). I've now learned two things: firstly, that perhaps this album was just way ahead of its time; and secondly, those two guys I mentioned just now - fuck, they are the ones who suck.
Sean Chen Oh this album was way ahead of its time, no doubt about that.
Yes
This albums prog death metal to me now.
They are the ones who suck!
3 years late I know but some of my favorite bands are Cattle Decapitation, Gojira, Septicflesh, I'm into really heavy stuff and I can tell you this is good shit too.
the beginning guitar part... Time will not heal. All of your pain. I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down.
You are absolutely fucking right! They followed the footsteps of Dream Theater, the foreshadow of a melody soon to be heard in the album. I love it!
+Gabriel Wood Knew that from first listen to the album and it's those small things that make something epic!
I thought I was the only who noticed xD
^Also And Justice For All...
Maan, I was singing that line from Shogun every time I heard Kirisute Gomen starting, and I couldnt figure out why am I doing this. Now I realized.
If anyone is interested kirisute gomen is the act of striking (typically killing) someone of a lower social standing due to said person dishonouring them. This was traditionally done (although not exclusively) in feudal Japan with samurai honour killing due to a pleb dishonouring them, considering that this song is in the shogun album, it is quite fitting addition to the Japanese theme of the album.
+Ray Dawg i didnt know this and i wasn't particularly interested but i am glad to know this. makes the song that much more enjoyable!
This is great everyday advice. Slice up those worthless opinions of the people that have the need to point them out to you. Don't let them get to you!

+Paul Thibault I think he means mine :/
+Paul Thibault people telling you something you like sucks. telling you your opinions are dumb. Mean girls/fake ass men. anyone trying to belittle you for their own personal gain. "in their wretched guts, all they want is to feed. unending covetous hunger known as greed."
When Trivium first came out I ignored them cus I just thought they were Metallica/Pantera copycats, trying too hard. After years of being ignorant I've finally listened to Shogun. And..what..the..fuck? Its one of the greatest metal albums I've ever heard? How is this not more well known. The guitars are so fucking brutal, the chunk off those seven strings, machine gun double bass drum as well. Absolutely phenomenal. Never make a judgement without listening properly.
First song I ever heard from them was from this album that was on a wwe game & that's because I nvr of heard of them prior to the game. Im glad I heard "down from the sky" from the wwe svr2010 video game
I was a bit racist when i heard about these guys. First heard their song on saint's row 2, it was anthem. I liked the song so i did research. Then I was like "no way he's Japanese?"and i fell in love with these guys. Loved their ascendancy album. Ember to inferno wasn't bad, but i wish it had more guitar solos.
For me it's ascendancy, crusade, shogun, and ember to inferno. In waves is a good album but haven't heard everything off that one yet and vengeance falls is horrible. Draiman is a horrible producer.
I saw them live on their first tour. then again 2x after. I personally loved the raw metal epicness.but for some reason I still can't figure out, and continuing to this day, their crowds simply have no energy. how, with them playing things like this and Shogun I have no clue. but I think that has something to do with why you never heard more of them. they just never got mentioned with the greats. of course having David dramen produce one of your CDs doesn't help. although I did enjoy VF a lot. still, they are damn good. their new stuff sounds like it's going to be good too
+GetSumNutz Dank meme
+GetSumNutz Metallica/Pantera copycats? You need to get your ears checked. Since they really dont sound like either of those bands aside from the electric guitar sound. If anything there are parts in this cd that actually do sound less heavy so its more like Metallica/Pantera even though Metallica and Pantera also dont sound like each other. Ascendancy will remain their best work. Since I dont think the lead singer wants to sing like that anymore. Which is fine.
Fun Fact: They have this song on Nintendo Karaoke.
really?
please can you show me i need to see this

This is Trivium's "...And Justice For All" .
Absolutely fucking spot on there mate
The black album is cool yeah it's no and justice for all but in my opinion Metallica have never had a poor album!
Zach Albright-
in waves was their "black album." everything after that was the complete opposite of everything they had done before and is considered trash by half of the fanbase
Brandon H. yup. this is where they honed their style to perfection and dumbed everything down from there, same as Metallica.
Though, I don't see the problem with changing your style as long as it's still good. Metallica's Black Album, Load and Reload are awesome. Only reason tryhard fans hate it is just because they're different. I get why people may hate St. Anger, it sounds like absolute shit but those 3 albums are purely awesome.
This song is the pinnacle of Trivium's creativity and skill. Not one part of it is even mediocre. Perfection
to this day i think of this song when trivium is mentioned, this is them at their peak
This song is perfect for Ghost of Tsushima.
The whole album is to
Makes great background music
That game sucks
Kaiji B.M well that’s like, your opinion man. I’m only about halfway done and it’s turned into one of my favorite games.
This song, down from the sky, shogun, and rain
12 years after release.... this entire album has still spoiled me for new music. If it's not "Shogun" worthy, i won't even touch it. It's a blessing... and a curse.
What do you think about the new album? I consider that new album and this album as they are at the same level
@@yoryibs8944 I wouldn't say same level. But I've listened to everything Trivium has put out and have been mildly disappointed compared to Shogun. I think Shogun was just a special time for be, just getting into college and doing a lot of '1sts' It was my coming of age album. But I definitely put all of Triviums new stuff on a high tier as well, just not as Godly as Shogun.
What other albums do you think are on Shogun's level ?
@@hoffdani13 Twelve Foot Ninja's "Outlier" comes to mind off the top of my head.
Well at least you don’t have to hear good music. You only have to hear great music
This .... Has to be my favourite Trivium song of all time!
Same where \m/ >< \m/
Mine would have to be Shogun itself, or Throes of Perdition.
Take their fucking heads
Same heeee
One of the best for sure, but my favorite albums still remain Ascendancy and Ember to inferno
1:04 one of the best riffs of all time imo
Reminds me of through the eyes of the dead
It’s so fucking nasty, it’s amazing
This whole album is so well made. I love how they bring back this melody in Shogun. These guys know how to make music. Been a fan for a long time.
Wait they do? Which melody
@@mirkecWiithe acoustic intro on this song is the same as the chorus in the title track "Shogun"
@@WFly101 how have I never realized that after so many years, wow!
Very underrated for this talent and a beautiful songs... they deserve more
This musical masterpiece of art is flawless. It touches the G spot of my ears.
Matt sounds a lot like James Hetfield in the ... And justice for all days in this song.
GamerTagVideos didn't say there was anything wrong that. I think it's pretty cool.😄
Exactly my thoughts
+Dakota Johns Hah, listen to anything from The Crusade. The album sounds a lot like Metallica!
I think James Hetfield sounds like Matt sometimes. Just sayin'
I miss his James Hetfield phase. They kind of had an identity crisis but Matt's Harsh vocals + screams were fucking brutal.
This drumming is extraordinary.
Rev worthy...
I Rage Indeed 😖
Bulshit poser
Dutch van der Linde tf you mean, the Rev was better
Travis was the shit
This is Triviums "Bohemian Rhapsody." Before Kirisute Gomen, I never thought heavy metal would have a song to rival Queen's. I was wrong. "Torn Between Scylla And Charybdis" and "Down From The Sky" are seconds, not close seconds, but still worthy of consideration. Shogun was the first proper full album I bought in my life, instead of casette rips and individual tracks, and I bought it for the extended edition. I bought it because I heard it and thought "people are gonna talk about this song a hundred years from now." Thankfully I'm not in Matt's shoes, because the first time I listened to this song I would have smashed my guitar and given up on music forever. Theres not a single word, not a single note, harmony, drum beat, or pitch that doesn't belong. And if you cut one thing from this song, even one fraction of a second, it wouldn't be what it is.
Thank you for allowing me to pay for this. It's perfect.
YOU SIR SPOKE MY MIND
Amen bro
Wow the first Album I ever bought was Dookie back in the 90s. I have bought thousands of full albums since.
one of the best guitar solos in metal
@Matthew Hyde dont doubt big corey
holy shit Matt sounds really close to James from Metallica back in the 80's-90's era
So I'm not the only one that thought that the first time I heard this song. I'm like sweet they got "James in with them on this song."
Shogun is one of the best albums ever made.
but i dont want to buy a fridge.

Are you sure? It's "All of black olives!" as Matt Heafy himself says at 1:17
If only you could drum this good lars lol
F**** this is just too damn good, feels good listening to it again.
It feels good every time my man.
This album is timeless!
Trivium is really a band that has explored many different styles. Every album is slightly different which is something I really like about them, after seven studio albums they still haven't become generic metalcore bullshit.
Now sing along!
"...ILL SHAKE THEIR FUCKING HANDS!"

I remember when I got Shogun and heard this first time. It was so good I couldn't get to the other songs for like a month
Yeah rite..same here..lmao
this is already 5 years old ?? holy shit feels like only 2 years to me ...i have to go out more
6 years, actually.
7 years, actually.
Anonymous Lawliet De la Justicia Nope, still 6
Ok
9 years, actually
I think many fans in the metal super-genre are very closed minded, as evidenced by a lot of comments here. Trivium would be shitty musicians if they just kept making Shogun 2, Shogun 3, etc. because that is what the fans want. It is the same complaints from the fans of every band. "Their new record isn't just like their old one that I really liked". Too fucking bad. Vengeance Falls isn't Shogun 2. Don't you think if Trivium wanted to make Shogun 2, they would have? Same thing happened to Avenged Sevenfold. And Metallica. I loved their old stuff, but their new stuff is good too......same with Trivium.
I've been totally open minded to the last 2 Trivium records, which were great, and will continue to be open, but they did not hit home anywhere near like Shogun. With that being said, one thing I love about Trivium is how they are an ever-changing band. You can never expect a sequel to a previous release. I just hope hope they get a little more creative with the riffs on future albums. I have no problem with all the singing and less screaming I just felt that the riffs and compositions on VF are the most generic of all their releases so far.
agreed, that is how someone develops and grows as a musician, try different things. Just keep an open mind and accept it for what it is. If you like it, cool, if not, well, sucks for you i suppose
Exactly man
Everyone should think that
No one cares man. Go ahead and just enjoy everything your little "perfect favourite bands" create. Guess what, everyone enjoys different art. Elitism is only a problem if people begin to harass others about music they like. If they don't like a certain god damn album from a band they like, fine. They don't like it, end of story. As i said, elitism based on a douche seeing a band photo and deciding he won't like the band is annoying. If it was up to fans like a lot of fans here, every album would have more choruses, shitty riffs and a mainstream feel, "because everything they do is oh so amazing and inspirational". Shogun is amazing, and neither In waves or Vengeance falls have even come close to touching it in my opinion. I'm sure you have albums that you don't like as much as others.
GamerTagVideos What you told me is That music someone doesn't like is not commercial or a "sell out" sound, it's simply music that the person doesn't enjoy.
Um.... EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.
What? Load wasn't commercial? haha, good one. "Hetfield's feelings", yeah alright. The entire reason i would get into Metallica is to hear about Hetfield's emotions, totally. Not at all because albums like Puppets and Justice are 40-50 mins of absolute amazingly orchestrated (not always as in instruments, as in intricate structures), diverse and technical thrash metal that was pushing ahead of it's time. End rant section lol.
Anyway, when i spoke about a mainstream sound sometimes attracting slightly more oblivious fans (yeah, i know it sounds like a generalisation, but of course not everyone is, hell i myself got into them around the in waves cycle), I was just talking about the fans who praise fucking everything they do. It's madness, i mean i like the newer stuff to, but Shogun is..... Shogun. That's really all i should have to say lol, but obviously some people might not enjoy the technicality and overall songwriting style on Shogun. I love screaming my lungs out at their shows to Strife and In waves to, but i gravitate more towards Shogun because of the majority of the other music i like (Death metal and Black metal). I just wish fans wouldn't praise everything a band does as completely perfect.
i don't know why i am so angry anymore, then sometimes i feel so cold. sometimes i think this is a direct consequence of this insane world.
Sometimes I feel cold, sometimes I feel hot. Seasons suck!
My top 5 favorite trivium songs:
1. Shogun
2.Like light to flies
3. Vengeance
4. Pull Harder
5. Kirisute Gomen
vengeance? wtf is vengeance?
@@alejandrosalazar3147prob Vengeance falls but OP shortened it for some reason
@MaupnThrow5 probably not that because Vengeance Falls came out in 2013 and this comment is from 2009
@@alejandrosalazar3147i looked into it, it's a bonus track on the crusade
Never noticed that the first part of the intro riff to this is the chorus to Shogun. WOW all this time and I had no idea.
I like every song of Shogun, but Ascendancy has the likes of Rain, Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr, and of course Like Light to the Flies. It's so hard to decide which is a better album.
I'm Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis.

+Viv Varghese That's quite a Suffocating Sight, honestly. Maybe if you scream loud enough, someone else will come Dowm from the Sky.
I've been listening to this song for like 16 years now, and just now found out that "kirisute gomen" was a term the samurai used to kill anyone who disrespected them on the spot lol. As long as they had a witness who could testify in court of course
Trivium should have also done a song titled sushigiri, and sing about how bored samurai would just head out at night and kill random traveling merchants to "test out a new sword" >_>
Pretty disturbing to name an album after a practice where a warrior could cut down a defenseless person over petty reasons (assuming they weren't made up).
I actually do need a new fridge...

Cool but no one really asked...
This track is so fucking metallica, and it's fucking great, this song reminds me of Battery.
+EternalHD yes and the bonus tracks too they are very Metallica
Their cover of master of puppets reminds me of Metallica
Lol xD
+EternalHD
Honestly the only thing that reminds me of Metallica from this is Matt's clean vocal style.
battery and blackened combined in my opinion. great mix
TRIVIUM never gets outdated after all these years. Was a masterpiece when I first heard it. Still the same!
I love the opening part (0:00 to 0:16), I just noticed the other day how it sounds exactly like the chorus of Shogun (Time will not heal, all of your pain, I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down!).
It really just bears even more testament to the fact that Trivium really do apply their musical genius and put thought into their music.
Fucking love Trivium!
This song beats me harder than my mother did when I was a kid
😀 Agree more than ever.
Yo momma soft
How anyone can have any dislike to this song or entire album makes absolutely zero sense. It’s easily the most well crafted metal album of its time. Not 1 single flaw from start to end.
I remember when you could plug your iPod into the Xbox, my mate lent me his Xbox just to jam out to this album and play skate 1
This is the best song in the world, there's no debate here... it's this one.
We never knew it then... this was PEAK trivium. Hell, peak metal. This is literally perfect
no lmao
@@operatorfailski8328 perfect? No. It's pretty damn good tho 😎🤘
228 people have been forced into a shallow grave, based upon their empty ways.

This song is an absolute masterpiece. It should deserve so many more views.
I love the cold feeling of Matt's clean singing in this song it sends shivers down my spine fucking perfect. What a phenomenal album. I don't care if they make a Shogun part 2 even though that's what most Trivium fans say, but I do hope that they can at least capture the intensity and passion that they put into this album before releasing another one. I would rather not hear new Trivium material for a couple of years of it meant they could make another masterpiece!
In the court of the dragon is essentially the sequel and it's fucking glorious
Badass artwork
XxBBxX Totally
Do you want to buy a freeedge?!
A+++ please!
What kind of fridge?
Do you wanna buy some vege? *dunun dunun* Foooor yoooour fridge
I hate you, now I'm going to hear that every time I listen to this song lol
when is that?
That tremelo picked chorus riff is easily one of my all time favorites lol
still in my opinion one of Trivium's greatest songs
The acoustic guitar at the start of the song plays the vocal melody from the chorus in "Shogun". Also, the line "He who walks the fire breathes" is used again in "Into the Mouth of Hell We March", but instead is said as "Can't you see, for it is we who walk the fire and breathe."
This song slays all the songs on the album, i think its clearly the best.
I love this album so much, I just can't stop listening to it. Every song on it is 10/10 in my opinion.
Love the way the song transfers into the first chorus. So damn good.
IMHO, best Trivium song from the best Trivium album, ever.
I remember when I first heard this . I bought an iPod from the swapmeet and all types of metal was in there. Amazed me. That iPod got me into trivium
Flattening of Emotions by Death comes in great after this song finishes
i was sitting on the bus on my way to school today and decided to listen to this song cos at the time it was the only song i didn't like on shogun, after i couple of listens i fell in love with this song and came to the conclusion that shogun is my favorite album of all time!! there is not one song on this album i don't like, it is just amazing!!
Shogun has to be my favourite trivium record so intricate and it kicks all the mainstream bullshit you hear that they take off as 'metal' asses. Vengeance falls and ascendency are a very close second as well
This song is legendary.
Love this album. What a talented band and underrated!!

This is the exact video that dropped before shogun came out back in 2008, can't believe it's still here.
I have no idea what he's saying, but those guitar riffs are fucking awesome
In episode 444 of One Piece, during the very last second, the newly released from prison Shiryu said Kirisute Gomen.. I was reminded of this masterpiece
Edit: The whole Wano arc kinda reminds me of this album too lol!
As a drummer, I can vouch that "send the pedal straight to hell" going into the chorus is very accurate hahaha
I love how the intro melody is the same as the ending of shogun
Shogun is my absolute favorite album, the entire thing is epic. Thank you.
Epic song, some parts remind me of Symbolic by Death

Cardinal Copia drinks your tears you get points just for being on a non Death (metal) video without any bashing lol
He’s said before that it’s his favorite album
No matter how much time passes, this will forever be a favorite.
My favorite Trivium song...
I think this is my favorite song by anybody ever. I still can't stop listening to it 5 years after the release. I fucking love these guys.
THIS is a masterpiece
this is more Metallica than Metallica itself these days
That doesn't make sense.
+Peter Parker it kinda does.
Considering the first line of the chorus sounds like it was sampled from ...AJFA
fngoodmusic78 yeah i just noticed that that and the first lyric of KG sounds like AJFA "Hall of Justice painted green money talking" part but faster a lil bit. Haha
Metallica hasnt been Metallica since 1992 ish
Best Trivium song.. so fucking complex and catchy... That's how modern metal should sounds!
I use to jam to this
DO YOU WANT TO BUYA FRIDGE!!!!!
THEKILLINGJOKE710 hahahaha I can't hear this seriously anymore you fucker😂😂😂😂😂

The drum intro and outro of this song reminds me of Death's intro of Flattening of Emotions.
sounds a bit like James Hetfield in old days but stronger

Makes the short list of perfect albums for sure.
2:45 - 3:16 i love that chorus its amazing
The Bridge to Life
One of the oldest questions humankind has been asking is, “How can I know God?” The question is a valid one. What is He like? What can we do to please Him? How can we get to Heaven? If we work hard enough to be a good enough person will He accept us then? If we do enough religious activities to get His attention, will that do it?
Fortunately for us, the answer is surprisingly simple. The “Gospel” that the Bible talks about literally means, “the Good News,” and the news is good indeed!
First, we have to start at the beginning. In Genesis 1:26, when God created the first humans, He said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness”, then God blessed them and spent the days walking and talking with the people He had created. In short, life was good.
But why isn’t life like that anymore? What happened to mess everything up? This brings us to the second point: when we (humankind) chose to do the opposite of what God told us, sin poisoned the world. Sin separated us from God, and everything changed.Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” and in Isaiah 59:2 we’re told, “your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you so that he will not hear.”
This is especially bad news because there is no way for us to get across that gap on our own. We (humankind) have tried to find our way back to God and a perfect world on our own ever since then, and without any luck. We try to get there by being good people, or through religion, money, morality, philosophy, education, or any number of other ways, but eventually we find out that none of it works. “There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death” (Proverbs 14:12).
There is only one way to find peace with God, and the Bible says it is through Jesus Christ. We were stranded without any way of getting back to our Creator, and we needed a way to pay for our sins and be clean again so that we could be welcomed back to be with Him.Romans 5:8 says, “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” So this is the Good News-that even though we were still enemies of God (as one translation says), Jesus came to die on the cross and pay the price for our sins so that we could have a relationship with Him again. John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
What then should be our reaction to this awesome news? This brings us to the last and most important part.John 5:24 says, "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes Him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.” Jesus Christ himself even says, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10:10), and Romans 5:1 says, “we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
So how can I have peace with God, life to the full, and be confident of eternal life like these verses say? First, through an honest prayer to God, I have to admit that I’m not perfect-that I can’t escape my sins, and I can’t save myself. I follow this admission by believing that Jesus Christ died for me on the cross and rose from the grave, conquering death and sin. Then I invite Jesus Christ to live in me and be the Lord of my life, accepting His free gift of eternal life with Him.
The prayer can go something like this:
“Dear Jesus,
I know that I am a sinner and that I need You to forgive me. I know that You died a painful death so that my sins could be washed clean. Thank you. I want to make You the Lord of my life, and I will trust and follow You. Everything I have is Yours now.
In Your name, Lord.
Amen.”
There is nothing magical about these words. It’s not the words themselves that make things right between you and God-it’s whether or not your heart really means it. We know this because in 1 Samuel 16:7, the Bible says, “The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
The best part of this whole process is that it doesn’t matter how badly we’ve messed up, Jesus is powerful enough to save anyone from their sins-even the worst of us. Romans 10:13 says, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." That’s fantastic news-no matter how badly we’ve messed up, we can place our complete trust in Jesus, and He will wipe all of our sins off the face of the earth. Jesus is the bridge to life.

Shut up bible thumper.
I love playing ghosts of tsushima while listening to this song
Listened to it the 3rd time today...cannot and will not get sick of this song.
Best Trivium solo of all time. Still gives me goosebumps every time.
I love their music from this whole album. listen to this as background music for the Metal Gear Rising story mode. I would classify this genre as it's own "Classical Metal Distortion on steroids!"
TRIVIUM IS 🤘BRUTAL🤘 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
If I'd make a book about 1000 albums to listen in your lifetime I'd put Shogun in that list with many others from other genres. >.>
this is the best song ever
I still remember coming home from school, 17 years old, turning on my computer and finding THIS!
MAN, I totally forgot about this album, especially this song.
10/10
He who walks the Fire breathes!! God I love the start of this song it seriously reminds me of a War Drum beating before the battle starts. If I heard this before going into a battle I assure you someone is going to die before I make my way to the sky.
"I can see it in their eyes. They've already died" listen to how close he sounds like James Hetfield when he says that. Old Metallica song on steroids.
oh man the tour for this album was amazing! of all the shows ive been to, moshing to down from the sky is still one of my favorite moments
Trivium at their worst are more talented than any rapper at their best. Metal will always reign supreme. Metalheads Unite!!!!
