Trivium fans may already be familiar with Augusto as he filled in for Travis Smith, who took time off for “personal reasons”,  on the Into The Mouth Of Hell We Tour.

Vocalist/guitarist Matt Heafy said, “We’re really happy to have our good friend and fellow Floridian Nick Augusto join the Trivium family. Nick’s drumming is very technical and diverse and he brings a real intense energy to the band and we can’t wait for everyone to hear the new song, ‘Shattering the Skies Above’, that we just recorded with Nick. I think it’s the best Trivium recording we’ve ever done; it’s raw, full of energy and I think Nick’s drumming really pushed us to a new level.”

No official reason has been given for Travis Smith’s departure.
