Trivium - "Betrayer" (Alex Bent Drum Playthrough) 

Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to check this out and share feed back, I appreciate you guys very much. There's a lot more to come, cheers everyone! :D

Damn he looks so relaxed like hes doing grocery shopping..

You're not allowed to leave this band. Seriously some of the best drumming I've heard since The Rev.

2:13 When you enter the kitchen and smell lasagna...

Alex Bent is the real fucken deal. He made that look effortless. Unbelievable

‘’if you could have one super power what would it be?’’ person1 - i want to fly person2 - i want to read minds me: *shows this video*

Jesus Christ man!

Gosh you're one hell of a beast dude! You definitely are the right man for Trivium!

Alex Bent, ladies and gentlemen! Remember that name because it is going to be written in the history of music!

I swear if Trivium is all like "Oh we don't share the same ideas anymore, Alex had to be let go" bruh I'll lose my shet.

That was majestic.

This is so damn awesome. You make it look effortless. 🤘

Trivium is a very lucky band

It's so satisfying to watch him play

Awesome, dude!

Outstanding! You deserve all the success that comes your way Alex. Been a Trivium fan for a long while and I can't remember a time where they put the spotlight on the drummer as much as they have with you. Cheers for breathing new life into this kick ass band!

So nonchalant ... "here let me slay this drum part like nothing. What's for lunch guys?" Awesome.

Every note calculated. Trivium is a great band, and Alex takes them to the next level. No wasted spaces, no filler, always tight! Really enjoying your patterns man

2 dislikes?! LOL... Travis and Nick hahahaha!

Over the past year ive watched this over and over and are still in awe...."yous a beast my man".....keep it up!!!

OMFG! You're the most intense and accurate drummer I have seen in a while. This comes from a drummer to a beast drummer. Keep up the good work, you're amazing dude!

Damn! It’s really impressive how you can keep perfect time through those double time beats with the double kicks, upbeat snares, and rides accenting the guitar riffs.

This drum track in particular blows my mind every time i see it. so much skill.

I come back to this video all the time and honestly I haven’t seen a metal drummer wow me like this since I first heard Chris Adler. First heard him on Ashes of the wake, then Sacrament and got my mind blown. But Alex, to me is just that next level of drumming.

I've probably watched this over 10 times now. Inspirational drumming to say the least.

It's great to see another amazing musician who can keep up with the rest of Trivium.

One of the most impressive displays of drumming I've seen. So calm and collected while playing. And what amazing writing too, writing a part like this and playing it with such finesse is nothing short of incredible! Kudos good sir!

Seriously some of the best drumming I’ve seen in ages, hope Trivium hold on to you!

Sick as always! Looking forward to see you play on the next EU run :)

he's thanking us while we should be thankful for him for existing in this world, thanks for your massive skills you have man all respect to you thanks for being in Trivium

I'm glad you're uploading and getting your music out there. Can't wait to see more! What a Animal you are Alex, thanks for sharing.

Trivium's needed a drummer like you for a long time man. Congrats on the gig, and man, that's one hell of a performance. I can't wait to see you do this live.

I'm straight awestruck. This makes me sad that illness caused me to have to give up my miniscule experience with drumming...I can however air drum my heart out to the new album. Hell yes!

How are those snare-hits at 2:03 so clean, you don't even miss 1 beat! That's insane. You're amazing Alex. Huge props.

This is so satisfying to watch ! Every Beat, Every Fill, Just Pure Skill ! Watching this playthrough has become my morning routine. Dude, you totally Rock!

Simply: "WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" Just perfect..it´s a real joy for the heart to watch you playing!

Congrats on everything dude! Play-through looks really good!

GAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH triviums best drummer ever! could you cover pull harder? and maybe throes??

Hell yeah Alex. Congrats on the album release and best of luck brother. I'm stoked to watch your successful career grow. 🤘🏽

You are an absolute beast. I started listening to you guys about a month ago, maybe a little over, and I couldn’t believe the drumming, unreal. The Sin and Sentence album is insane.

I cant wait to see this GOD live

Trivium drum machine AlexB activated ! :)

What an unbelievable talent. I wish you much success in the years to come, it's certainly deserved. Thanks for sharing this, Alex. Great job!

Thee most technically impressive drummer ive ever seen. Everything is just so clean. All your hard work has most certainly paid off man. Congratulations

Right man for Trivium!

First one!! Damn I'm loving your drum skills

Thanks for posting this, I was trying to figure out that last part and seeing you play it through (and the whole song) was just so enjoyable. Your work on the new album is very creative. So many little details, beats evolving throughout the songs, small adjustments not to repeat the same thing over and over but yet not overplaying to hijack the songs....very very impressive, sir. I hope to see you record The Revanchist someday or at least that groovy middle part, there is one cool tom fill with the ride the world needs to witness.

Alex, I love the way you use your splashes man! Just adds that extra little bit of spice to the top without going overboard and I can't think of anybody else that uses them as effectively as you do! Great work on these vids from an epic album!

Me Bent you are diabolic. You record an álbum that no one will be able to play if you leave the band. Well played.

You are god of drums man.

Dude I love it. It's at it's core very metal across the board, but you add so much dimension with your cymbal use. Amazing.

seriously some of the best cymbal work I've seen in a recorded track...ever.

The Tom/China work in the first verse made balls melt.

Drummers like this is the reason i consider taking on drums

You are the best thing to happen to Trivium imo. Thank you for all the kick ass beats!

One of the reasons this is my favorite song on the album! Definitely has a Shogun feel to it. Thanks for making it sound amazing!

Beastmode

It would be more difficult to this guy to miss a beat than it would be to just play the entire song perfectly

You have some serious, SERIOUS skills. Glad Matt & the other guys have welcomed you in. One of the most effortless drummers I've seen, and for your age, truly mind boggling. Not just a drummer, but one with some serious feel and musicality.

You sir are now my favorite drummer, you make it look easy

We're Not Worthy! We're Not Worthy!

I like how he's looking like a noble snob. Very easygoing playing right there.

Hey Alex, as someone whos been a fan of trivium longer than I haven’t been, and seen them with every drummer they’ve ever had, you hands down nail the position. It’s a refreshing thing to see someone who’s got new ideas for them and play soo effortlessly. Keep up the good work man. Welcome to the family. Very stoked to hear your playing on this release.

MASTERPIECE OF WORK!!! YOUR DRUMS IN TRIVIUM'S SONGS ARE THE BEST MAN!!!

1:58 - 2:08 he's going nuts with that fill-ins

This is what happens when the neighbors DON'T complain about all that racket

Worth the watch. I hope you stay with Trivium. Mr Bent, you are extremely talented.

you know this is probably the 30th time i watch this video and im not gonna get tired of this

Trivium were looking for a drummer, and got a Beast instead !

This guy fudging rips. Perfect dude to take Trivium forward.

You know you are a god when you got all these famous youtube channels amazed. Even Josh. Good job, this is amazing.

Congrats on the drumming in this album man, truly a masterpiece and quite possibly the best album I've heard of all time. (And this is coming from a guy who's had Shogun in his number 1 spot for years)

Wayne world: "your....amaaazzing dude...."

those double kicks....and that speed...))) im still building my stamina. can I ask what angles your legs are? I find keeping my feet further back gets my speed up but cant go for long????

I've been a drummer for over 20 years, and to see you play this flawlessly...lol I must reevaluate my life. You just reak of awesomeness.

I love alex's charisma, humble dude, relaxed and AWESOME

Hate to be the drum nerd but is he using 21” z custom mega bell rides?

Can't even see the park ya knocked it out of

Dude,you are amazing! Incredible speed,but with a lot of groove,it`s rare! Can´t wait to see you live with the band!

I keep COMING BACK to this drum play through video. blows me away every time bro! hope u could see this wish u well

0:22 Excuse me? WHAT?!?!

Gatdayum

WOW! It is now official that I have a favorite drummer. Amazing drumming man. I freaking love it, the speed, agility, tempo, and the beat.

Best Trivium drummer! Alex, this is an awesome song/playthrough! Hope to see more of these playthroughs from the new album! Keep rocking, Alex! :)

3:13 I can never see what is happening.

What?! No sheet music?

Damn Alex, you are such a good fit for Trivium. Bringing it back to the "Ascendancy" and "Shogun" eras. This is the classic Trivium metalcore sound. Love it.

i have watched this like 20 times already. i dont even play drums really. you are my favorite drummer now

5:44 mins and there wasn't even one drumstick trick, thas the huge difference between a real drummer and a show off clawn

You are the Jesus, nobody fucks with the Jesus, nobody.

Absolute machine, been a trivium fan since ember, best drummer I've heard for trivium and metal in full Brilliant stuff mate

Fucking insane! So good dude. I cannot believe how easy you make this look. So glad you are part of Trivium. You have breathed new life into the band! See you guys in PORTLAND next month!

Dear Alex, Please inseminate my girlfriend. She needs your drumming seed of life. I shall teach my spawn blast beats when he turns 3. I shall become a drum god vicariously through your seed.

WOW Bro SPLIT OF THE BENT I DESIRE YOU FOREVER GOOD VIBES WHO CREATE LIES IS A BETRAYER WHO RELATE MEMORIES IS A GOD VERSUS BEGGINER YES I WRITE LYRICS BRO! @edersonwarlock instagram

Was just listening to the last couple of Trivium records and after hearing these new songs, I realised how lackluster some of the drumming was on those last couple albums. The drumming on these new songs is pretty awesome ! Looking forward to hearing the album and seeing you on the tour !

Always been a Trivium fan, but I love them so much more with Alex, this dude is awesome.

Hands down probably the best all around drumming I've seen and ive been drumming since I was 11...I'm 31 Alex the combinations you put together are immaculate

The drumming on this album is so superb.Alex you are absolutely phenomenal and a driving force behind the kit \m/\m/.you use every ounce of that bad boy and it's so refreshing to hear that.cant wait to see you dudes in NYC.

This song may well be a masterpiece, no lie. I've been a fan of Trivium since Ember to Inferno and I honestly have no words for how absolutely "next level" this new album is. Alex I truly believe that you, my friend, are the key to that..Just phenomenal.

Incredible skills and work ! Thank you Alex for joining Trivium, and share what you're capable of \m/
