Got the special edition on day one
 Great Album and the best Trivium has done so far. The whole album was played on 7strings and 5string bass for the first time in the band's history. It has the Singing from The Crusade AND the screaming and growling from the first two albums. The drums are now not only heavy but also Groovy, bass has become a lot better since Paolo's playing with his fingers and there are also a few bass solos on the record. Guitar work has once again become better: awesome solos thrash and heavy riffs are extra heavy on those 7 strings. The whole album was record analoge and tracks were laid down in one big take so you can really hear authentic playing with dynamics which is refreshing in a time where Metal sounds like Pop music thanks to all that digital mastering... The songs on Shogun are very epic and have mindblowing chorus parts! There are thrash songs(kirisute Gomen), modern metal songs (into the mouth of hell we march) , extreme heavy tracks (throes of perdition), almost commercial songs (the calamity) and a 11 minute long title track with accoustic guitars and a Queen style solo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wG9iR5al4o&feature=user https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EApnhO2OIrw&feature=user --------------------  Gear: - Jackson USA Select KV2 King V with EMG 81/85 - Gibson Les Paul Custom Arctic White with EMG 81/85 - Ibanez Rg 8527 J Custom 7-String with DiMarzio Evolution and Air Norton - Peavey 6505+ head with Marshall 1960AV 4x12 cab - Peavey Vypyr 30 Practice Amp - Dunlop Crybaby From Hell, Maxon OD808, Boss TU-2, MXR CarbonCopy, ISP Decimator, MXR Custom Audio Electronics Booster |

One of the best things ive heard, Period. Not only is it Trivium's best effort, But its just mindblowingly original in everyway, and gets better as you listen to it.

Been listening this album for awhile, and although it is a good album, I think even Crusade was better. Ascendancy is still the best though
