Trivium was in the middle of a tour with Volbeat when they let go of drummer Nick Augusto. Since then he’s kept busy, putting out an EP with Corrosion earlier this year, and now officially joining Miami, FL’s Orbweaver.

Said Augusto on the recent move:

“I’m happy to have been asked to be a part ORBWEAVER. We have all played shows with each other’s bands in the past and have been friends in this scene for quite some time now. I’ve jammed with [guitarist/vocalist] Randy [Piro] before, so the timing was right when we got a hold of each other to join forces and write new material. Looking forward to what this new CD and the future holds for ORBWEAVER!”

The band, which features former Hate Eternal bassist Randy Piro, is in the studio now working on a follow up to their 2013 EP, Strange Transmissions From The Neuralnomicon, which was recorded with Jonathan Nuñez of Torche.
