Alex Bent [Trivium] - Tracking “Catastrophist” at Studio 606 

2:50 is something else

One of the best drummers on the planet. Energy and precision are off the fuckn charts here.

2:49 This whole section always impressed me when I heard it, but to see you CROSSING OVER to hit the floor tom with your left hand... at that speed... unfreaking real!

0:26 took the double ride thing to a new level

Alex, you're not from this planet, mixing that technical level with the musicality required for a band like trivium is outta this world, congrats and Happy Birthday to WTDMS ❤️

The build up in this song is one of the greatest in music history.

That DEATH influenced part really kicks so much ass every single time

The technical section after the solo is crazy! Also I noticed some of the parts are different from the ones on the record

Hands down, the best drummer at the moment. Speed, technique, feeling and an insane groove

Good grief those double bass kicks are lightning. The level of accuracy of those hits and making it look effortless is just awesome.

One of the best sounding drum mix on the entire album in the past 10 years of modern metal music. Absolutely killer. Alex, You sir are one of the best out there, was hoping for a new upload for "years" now, made my day :)

You Sir are a beast and the band needs to protect you at all costs!!

Alex knows how to fill a beat out without crowding it works so well. It sounds awesome and great to watch him play. Very sharp, consistent, and precise but keeps a feel to it

Love those quick blast beat transitions towards the end. So clean!

The most insane drumming of all Trivium's songs 💙

Man time flies fast! I just remember listening to the album for the first time. Keep up the good work.

What a creative machine Alex is ! Please upload more videos like these 😊

Best drummer right now

Can we get more of these pleeeaaseee??? 😊🙏🏼

2:50 I lost a brain cell watching that, that came outta nowhere bruh

such a killer drummer! So glad I took the opportunity to meet you in person. Shake your god damn hand!

I would absolutely love to see more studio stuff like this!

The sheer excellence and precision is remarkable. Great job, Alex!

Holy shit men... I've seen all of his videos already, he is The Goat on drumming... Super Metal and precise🤘

Amazing drummer, the best one Trivium has ever had!

This dude is so complete. I could listen to his tracking all day long. The passage from 2:00 to 2:57 is right up there. Edit : That entire kit sounds glorious. 😍

Just when I thought Alex Bent couldn't amaze me anymore. You're one of the greatest around, you're amazing 🔥

One of the absolute best to ever do it

So cool hearing it like this, you can really hear how dynamic his playing is naturally without effects/compression

what a machine!! i still remember learning this song by watching the short clip of this on your instagram few years back you definitely made me a better drummer!!

Love seeing the bts and playthrough stuff on here. Can't get enough of watching you play!

I miss lockdown and going on long walks with my dog to this album!

Finally I remembered they shared a clip of this on insta ! I didn’t wanna scroll that far back!

Nice stuff Alex...like that figure with the left ride at the end...🤘

2:56 is my laugh knowing I'll never be able to play that. How you keep your timing is beyond comprehension, Alex.

even from here the drums sounds fucking great, really nice kit and really nice playing, absolutely love it

One of my favorites drum tracks ever ❤🤘🏼 Alex bent or could It be Alex Beast🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥😎

Post more of these if u have them! They’re so satisfying 😮‍💨

Very tasty splash cymbal and double ride 🤤🤤🤤 Hope we can see more drum playthrough from last two album

Those grooves towards the end of the song before the final pre chorus are so ridiculously good alex. I remember Paolo going nuts over that part. You can actually hear him laughing in this video lmao

Congrats for this tracking and the album, one of the most I like from Trivium ever!

I am simply in awe

This had to be a one take track as it sounds perfect. Pork perfection 🐷👏🏻👏🏻

Seems like it just came out yesterday. How time flies!

❤ seeing more content lately. Wish you would have posted the whole thing though!

Absolutely insane man! Kicking so much ass! Amazing work

Absolutely amazing Alex!!! Do you have some videos recording In The Court Of The Dragon Album?

The “the rev” double ride technique, just awesome!

Thanks again for making me feel like a shitty drummer even after 23 years of playing. 😂. You Alex are a BEAST! I absolutely love your playing! Can't wait to meet you again at a show! 🤘🤘🤘

The robot inside him was sweating so bad, you can see the outline to the door of his circuit panel on his back.

Tracking a song like that to Tape and doing it as clean as that is fucking impressive.

Exactly the content we need! Thanks, Alex!

He's a beast 🤘

The tom groove around 2:53 is delicious.

We need Drum Playthroughs of the last two albums, mate!! Pleeeease!!

Has Artificial Intelligence finally gone too far? Look how well this robot portrays itself as a human being! Jokes aside, it is always a treat watching you do your thing. Keep on killing it, mate!

yoo man, love your work!!

What the drummer. Superb!

Miss you and the shenanigans! Don’t forget to lube the metallicus my guy! Keep crushing! 😂🤘🏽

You're my favorite drummer, Alex 🤘

Got to be one of the greatest metal drummers of today? I dont think anyone comes close at the moment
