Trivium

In The Court Of The Dragon

---

Vocals

These vocals are quite nice! The singing voice feels like an improvement from the little bit of singing I have heard from this band previously. I think the singing used is lower than what he used in other songs (at least the ones I have heard). I think I like when he stays here. Nice scream, too. I am sure I will get these vocal lines stuck in my head.

Music

There were several notable changes in the pace of the music, and different riffs which kept my attention. The guitar solo felt like it fit in, unlike some solos, for me.

Lyrics

I am not sure if this is supposed to be metaphorish? Like you have some horrible beast you are fighting. In this case, I hope you win the battle. But if we are talking about real dragons, the dragon needs to win. I am a big fan of dragons!

Nightmare past
Haunting him
Bides his time
Sinks into the sea
In the court of the dragon
Death of gods and world
In the court of the dragon
You will know your worth
Final clash
Beast and man
Rising from the violent waves
With bloodied head in hand
