Pri Trivium je znova prišlo do menjave na bobnarskem stolčku. Po tem, ko je band v začetku oktobra zapustil Alex Bent in ga je le za kratek čas nadomestil Greyson Nekrutman, je zdaj prišlo do ponovne menjave. Zaradi prenasičenosti urnika Nekrutman v prihodnosti ne bo mogel nadaljevati sodelovanja s Trivium. A band je že našel zamenjavo, saj bo bobnarske dolžnosti prevzel Alex Rudinger. Izjava banda:

»As we prepare to hit the road next week for our North American tour we wanted to explain where we are with our drummer. We want to sincerely thank Greyson Nekrutman for stepping in and crushing it with us at Aftershock Festival. It was an honor to share the stage with such a powerhouse talent, and we’re grateful to both Greyson and Sepultura for making it possible.

As we look ahead to our North American tour with Jinjer and Heriot and into a new album cycle, the realities of scheduling made it clear that Greyson wouldn’t be able to continue with us for the tour. There’s nothing but respect between us — Greyson is a humble, confident, and passionate musician, and we’ll always be fans.

That said, we’re excited to share that we’ve reconnected with a drummer we’ve known for over a decade — Alex Rudinger (formerly of Whitechapel). Fun fact: we asked Alex to join Trivium nine years ago, but the timing didn’t align.

Alex Rudinger will join us on tour starting next week and will be part of our writing sessions for the next Trivium record. We’re thrilled to finally share the stage with him and explore what’s ahead.

See you on the road.«
