Just months after undergoing successful open heart surgery following a mild heart attack, Primus drummer Tim Alexander is back with a burning passion. Through the Primus Facebook page, the drummer shared a clip titled “What Doesn’t Kill You Make You Stronger,” showing Alexander rocking the kit at full throttle.

 

Primus is gearing up for their Primus & The Chocolate Factory tour, which kicks off in Upper Darby, PA on October 22nd, and includes a stop at NYC’s Beacon Theatre on Halloween. The similarly-named album Primus & The Chocolate Factory is scheduled for an October 21st release date.
