I remember when I was still in Travis's corner and couldnt accept another drummer. But Alex is by far the best drummer they've had. Should be in in the top 10 best metal drummers in the world right now.
The way Trivium handled Travis gave me a bad taste for the band for a long time. In the end I had to realize people are gonna people. If you watch the Shogun behind the scenes Travis seems pretty unhappy. I remember clocking that when I watched it. When Alex joined it felt like Trivium for the first time since Travis left. And he's such a nice guy!
Well that's a surprise, literally revisited the LP yesterday for the first time in maybe a year. 24h later, this video pops up... seems like I'll listen to Trivium for some days now haha
My favorite band has been Slipknot since 2000 when I first saw their welcome to our neighborhood DVD, and I believe Alex might be better than Joey and Jay. This band is nothing but talent and extremely underrated.
Joey wrote a major part of Slipknot's music. Also, what makes a drummer better than the other? 🤔 Technique? Showmanship? Both? Something else? This is just art. If you prefer Alex, I completely understand. To sit down and try to figure out which one is the best, is pointless. Why not enjoy Alex, Joey and Jay?
Love these videos Alex! Judging by the audio quality, I'm guessing this is soundboard audio? If so, do you have anything on your kit triggered like kicks or snare?
Right under the Hihat you see a Roland TM-2 Trigger Module, of which channel 1 input signal is always flashing when he hits the kick drum (pretty good to see in the intro section of the song), so I'm pretty sure there is a kick trigger sample being fired anytime he hits the kick drum. It would be interesting if the kick drum is miced as well and, in that case, the two signals (kick trigger and mic) are blended. Anyway, the answer is: Yes 🙂 And I don't see any trigger installed onto the snare so the kick seems to be the only triggered component.
it's so weird listening to this because the mix is made for the audience to hear the kit in the direction they see it on stage but from this view its opposite.

Crazy to think that this song is over 3 years old already
And still so good 👍
I'm glad they finally did a tour for it last year
What ? No way!
Fr
No it isn't. It came out in 2020. It's almost 2024. It's perfectly reasonable to think it's over 3 years old.
Alex’s precision in the studio is amazing, but Alex’s precision live is mind blowing 🤯👏🏻
He keeps improving the parts.
He makes it easy
To see how calm he is playing the song is absolutely wild

That water bottle next to the electronics almost succumbed to the thunderous drumming that was shaking the entire stage 🤘
Absolutely brilliant! love Alex' drumming!
Outstanding Alex! Said it plenty fo time before, but here's one more.... Alex Bent is by far Trivium's best drummer ever!
Is and keep the Best, Alex is The Trivium Drummer
Hope alex will be in Trivium for many years to come.
Finally a drum playthrough, love this song!

Why not enjoy Alex, Joey and Jay?
I think Alex Bent was inspired by Joey just a little.
❤❤
This is a good as the original ;)

Live Alex is still the best Alex
The man is a f*cking octopus!
That water bottle was fighting for its life
Would have loved to see it with more consistent lighting, makes it so hard for the camera to pick it up :P
Wait a second, did I miss a fucking show in Tampa?? Or was this recorded a little while ago?
Do you guys play to a metronome live?
So. Tasty.
amazing cover, he should audition
this is a joke dont get all angry like everyone does
Look up sick drummer - it clearly says "Alex Bent"!

Ridiculous
