Nick Augusto (born August 4, 1986) is an American drummer, best known as the former drummer of heavy metal band Trivium, in which he played from 2009 until 2014. ==Career== Augusto was the drummer for the Floridian grindcore band Maruta, as well as Metal Militia, in which he played with Trivium bassist Paolo Gregoletto. He was a part of Trivium technical crew being responsible for drums. After the first leg of "Into The Mouth Of Hell We Tour", which was the band's first domestic tour as a headliner, the drummer and founding member Travis Smith went on indefinite hiatus. Augusto was offered to fill-in for him, as the band praised his speedy approach to performing its songs. He played his first show with Trivium on October 29, 2009 at The Masquerade in Atlanta. The band finished the second leg of the tour on December 12, 2009 playing hometown show in Orlando, still with Augusto on drums. On February 4, 2010, shortly before the upcoming Asian tour, Augusto was introduced as the new official member of Trivium, as Travis Smith again refused to join the band for live performances. Around the same time two new songs, "Shattering the Skies Above" and Sepultura cover "Slave New World", were released, both featuring Augusto. Since then he recorded two studio albums with the band and appeared in numerous music videos. On May 3, 2014 he played Carolina Rebellion festival show which turn out to be his last one with Trivium. Four days later it was announced that Trivium had parted ways with Augusto, still during their co-headlining tour with Volbeat, with a statement from Gregoletto citing offstage differences between Augusto and the rest of the band as the main cause.〔http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/trivium-parts-ways-with-drummer-nick-augusto〕 Similarly to Travis Smith story, the band's drum technician Mat Madiro took over his place and later became an official member. In October 2014, Augusto announced his new project named Corrosion and revealed the plans of recording an EP with the producer Jason Suecof.〔http://www.metalinjection.net/av/former-trivium-drummer-nick-augustos-new-band-corrosion-sounds-like-a-heavier-trivium〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nick Augusto」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
