"In this Masterclass I will show you from the ground up - how I approach the guitar; in warm-ups, rhythm, lead, and writing.” 💬 @matthewkheafy

With the volume off, he made that guitar sound like cameras clicking at a red carpet event. Dayum.

What in a modafokin hell is that strap setup

Matt heafy is amazing he is so articulated in his speech and guitar playing.

I’ve been casually practicing this song for like 10 years and still can’t play it 100% perfect. I’ve achieved maybe 90% perfect note for note a handful of times. Masterpiece

Finally. This has been keeping me awake at night.

Such a great album! One of the albums that got me into metalcore

[Maggai]

Remember learning this song back when that album came out, great riffs.

I am fascinated by the combination of this guy's facial structure and ears.

[chrissmith]

When he does the "down up down" without volume...are you kidding me? Slowed down the residence time between each string strike probably has a variance of effectively zero. I'm impressed! Thanks for sharing!

This is my absolute favorite Trivium song, and it is the one that I just cannot get right.

Have always loved trivium. Shogun cd was a permanent fixture in my first car because I couldn’t eject anymore lol still love the album after hearing it so many times

[mathprodigy]

Aside from the singles from the album which introduced me to you guys, this was my first favorite song i heard. That riff goes so hard man. What a fantastic album

[DamageInc]

This stuff happens sometimes. I've tried to teach people far better than me, who played major shredding stuff some rhythm parts i made, and they couldn't get the timing or order of things. But they could totally comprehend other stuff that i couldnt. It is an interesting phenomenon.

[Kate-fnzu]

Dude!! I can't wait to see you play that entire album in April!! So stoked!

[VampireA]

Matt would make an amazing music teacher

[FreeSpeechEmpire]

Matt you are an absolute guitar icon and just a beast in general. Much love from FL to FL 😂🤘❤️

[welfiblablabla]

I knew right from the beginning which riff was going to come 😂

Ive seen trivium one time live in Charlotte in a little venue along side all that remains it was pretty fkn awesome trivium is amazing live truly blew my mind how good they were in person being that close to the stage

"Much better than me"

My lord, Heafy, is such a humble master.

[jasonstallworth]

Awesome riff! I call that burst of 3 notes galloping…it’s like demon bulls galloping towards you
