It was an honor to share the stage with such a powerhouse talent, and we&#8217;re grateful to both Greyson and Sepultura for making it possible.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;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&#8217;t be able to continue with us for the tour. There&#8217;s nothing but respect between us \u2014 Greyson is a humble, confident, and passionate musician, and we&#8217;ll always be fans.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That said, we&#8217;re excited to share that we&#8217;ve reconnected with a drummer we&#8217;ve known for over a decade \u2014 Alex Rudinger (formerly of Whitechapel). Fun fact: we asked Alex to join Trivium nine years ago, but the timing didn&#8217;t align.<br \/>&#8220;Alex Rudinger will join us on tour starting next week and will be part of our writing sessions for the next Trivium record. We&#8217;re thrilled to finally share the stage with him and explore what&#8217;s ahead.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;See you on the road.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DQMuPLhDj1e\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"\/><p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Trivium have enlisted the services of prolific drummer Alex R\u00fcdinger (Conquering Dystopia, ex-Whitechapel, ex-The Faceless, ex-Threat Signal) for&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143662,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[264],"tags":[84936,18,117,12061,19,17,73397,7163,337,5,79951],"class_list":{"0":"post-143661","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-alex-rudinger","9":"tag-eire","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-hardcore","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-lambgoat","15":"tag-metal","16":"tag-music","17":"tag-news","18":"tag-trivium"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115431726376145194","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143661"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143661\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/143662"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
