I liked Trivium's previous release The Crusade but it wasn't the same Trivium I fell in love with a few years ago. This album is more like Trivium's first 2 albums but BETTER!!! This album has the right combination of melody and heaviness and many different ranges of vocals, whereas The Crusade only had a likeable heavy-metal shout all the way through the album, this album went from slow and melodic to a James Hetfield growl to all-out death-growls - sometimes all in the same song! The guitar-work and harmonized solos are awesome, there are also a few louder, killer bass sections, drumming is as always amazing!!! In all, I think this is Trivium's best album yet.
If Ascendancy was a masterpiece and The Crusade a passable follow-up, Shogun is twice the perfect work of art. Not only has the band went further into their metal territory (as well as exploring ideas), but they made this album the best they can make. In factm it's the best metal album of the 2000s (like Metallica's Master of Puppets is to the 1980s). I would recommend this to any metal fan and even to the detractors. Perfect 12!

I actually purchased this CD for a friend but couldn't help listening to it. I absolutely loved it! It's one of those CD's that you can pop in when you've had a bad day, and it fixes everything!
This is the best effort so far from the band 'Trivium' any fans of this band or the metalcore genre will enjoy this CD. Many good solos and catchy choruses.
This is by far the best Trivium album. Shogun and Throes of Perdition are my favorite. The band has truely improved with the release of this album.
Trivium is the best heavy metal band that i`ve seen and heard and looking forward to see them again , really good cd , i like all the new songs...cant wait for more from these guys...ROCK ON!!
