Fuckin' love the whole concept of this masterpiece. the drums, the guitars, the bass and the vocals are too awesome. kudos to Trivium for the guitar works!
Absolutly amazing! I wonder why the King isn't making such morely... The king is the King! Most BM-heads are copy-cats and useless faggots to him!!! ;)
matt is not a poser whoever said that. he was 19 when he did this song with them and looked like a 19 year old gutiarist to me. a poser would imply that he only tried to look like a guitar player, which is stupid because he actually is a great one.
By far best track King's done since The Eye. He should dump whatever tired uninspired fossils are currently in his band and record a new album with this line up. I don't care if the guitarist is a poser. He nailed the classic King vibe. Andy LaRocque hasn't written an interesting riff in decades.
When I heard Matt doing a song with King... I was like... this should be full of fun. I don't know if you saw Trivium's guitar solo battle between the two guitarist, but it sounds alike
Man. lol I heard this song on a road trip back home, and when this song came on. I was all, "Dude. This guy reminds me of that one guy from Mastodon that did the backings for that song from the Aqua Teen movie! :O" Cut You Up With a Linoleum Knife it was called I think. I mean. Am I wrong? D: (Might be two different singers, but I thought it was cool. >.>)
@baz9d its sound exactly the same to the copy on the ROADRUNNER UNITED The All Star Sessions CD. just sayin as i was just listening to that CD before i looked it up on youtube to share it on fb. sounds exactly the same.
I discovered King Diamond through this song and I am now a big fan of his band. Thank for the post! I don't like trivium but they made a great job on that song and on the roadrunner album generally. Hail the King!!!
Not the biggest Trivium fan, but the boys did a fantastic job making this sound like an old school King Diamond song. King's vocals are great, and the guitar solo and rhythm section is top notch.
@blacktheory Yea found that out after I commented that! Tim did the live stuff of King Diamond so I thought he did this too, but no King Diamond did it himself!
I took off approval for comments since I don't want to bother, and because I hate sitting here censoring what people can write on this video. It feels like I'm controlling what's seen and what isn't. Try to stay civil.
@Daputti Agreed. In Trivium, Matt Heafy seems to be the one most capable of writing the melodic solos while Corey is the shred monster. Each one can do both, but the aforementioned seems to be their strengths.
Robdukes shouldn't be bothering us any longer. I saw his posts in my news updates for the video and was just about to close the ability to comment on this video, but I saw quite a few others(including the top comments) that made me stay my hand and allow you guys to continue commenting. You guys rock.
How can you not have respect for these guitarists?
This song has the first guitar solo I have ever heard in metal music that is insanely fast yet at the same time it could make the chills run down your spine.
Now that is an accomplishment, and in my eyes it's what makes these guitarists great, and worthy to be working with King Diamond for sure.
Also, I agree with KaiX. If only we could voice our opinions without having to bash all who oppose us in the process. It's like I'm in a fucking war.
great track one of the best on a record with so many great with only the best musicians involved as a fan its awesome to listen to the best players in the game work together matt and corey really step it up for king diamond.
@corpsegrinder92 I do, as well as grunge. But as far as the YouTube community goes, I don't want even the slightest to be placed even a 100 yards within a metal fan on here. Most of them are close minded, and when they interact with each other, they form garbage opinions on each others music, and then it turns into one big, gay fuckfest of "My band's dick is bigger than your band's dick!" arguments. So no, I'm not a metal fan.
@HammersmashedTaco It's the unfortunate truth, my friend. They just try their best to swing them around- see George Carlin's rant on war, it's the exact same case with elitist fans.
@KaiX6 Agreed. Most of those "metal fans" are just butthurt faggots that are single minded idiots that can't appreciate every genre of music, for example, I can listen to just about everything, I don't just listen to rock, I can listen to hip hop or country.
@KaiX6 spoken like a true genius, i used to be one of these metal fans. :/
I took a music industry course last year and now i dont look at music as what i like and what i think is good, i look at it as being a different style and can appreciate all types of music and the different techniques used for their style. except for that techno crap. that stuff is just horrible and hurts my ears
@trav390 Then you my friend, have not heard good techno. Like any mainstream, mainstream techno (which you most likely heard) is absolutely terrible, poorly produced sound loops. Techno rock musicians like Celldweller are incredible, I suggest taking a peek at his work.
Being a musician, I learned that everyone puts passion into their music, if it's something they love, it'll reflect in their music. If it doesn't, it'll be sub-par.
i cant believe people waste their time commenting on music they supposedly hate if u dont like it why are you on here listening it obviously you like it i know i dont waste my time listening to music i hate i dont like brittney spears so why would i watch her videos on here id rather watch something i like not waste my time with shit i dont BTW Matt Heafy Rules !!!! \m/
is this the one and only King Diamond??????!!! All should aspire to his level...hey all you kids out there....listen to merciful fate and early Diamond...especially Abigal...please listen...!!!!!!!
