Tristian German

I'm Tristian German. I'm 23 years old, and I live in Michigan. I have a beautiful baby girl named Skarlett. I started drumming after my older brother, AJ and I started a deathcore band when I was about 13. A few years later as I got better at drumming, my brother wanted me to be the drummer of his grindcore project called Snuffed Out, and we've been playing grindcore/powerviolence ever since then. With growing up in a poverty stricken family, I didn't have as much of an opportunity to expand my sounds on the drum kit by buying new cymbals or equipment when I wanted, I made what ever I came across work. I remember at one point using a highhat bottom as a crash for the longest time. So after working for a while, learning the value of a dollar and going through used cymbals like a mad man, I decided I would send in for a Soultone endorsement. Around that time, my brother and I also started a two piece drum and bass powerviolence project called Bud Rot.
