@@vintagedrums1 george kollias can play Aaron's stuff bud, and he makes harder stuff. Aaron favorite drumset is the superior drummer 3000. George could play Aaron stuff. There different technique to approach it. Aaron couldn't play Georges stuff.
@@vintagedrums1 more like "your taste got worse during these 7 years''. No seriously, aaron uses double bass pedals that double click and shit like that. That's why he sounds faster.
2:09 ...I've just discovered that Kollias doesn't actually move like we do. He just telepathically issues commands, and his limbs obey. Like "Snare/tom rolls", or "Blast. BLAST!!!!". at THIS time in the song, I think he just went "Ok... Surprise me. Go!!!"
It's no coincidence that one of the the greatest technical metal drummers (GK) is wearing Air Jordans! That is one secret to his phenomenal footwork. Thank you for raising the bar so high gkdrummer, now if only I can see it...
he does use triggers! "If you go for high speeds then your band will not be able to listen every little thing you do,not being able to follow you.This is why i use triggers" Took that from one of his forums. I support triggers a lot, gives it a better sound and much more clarity. Kollias is one of not very many drummers that kick hard enough to not use them. But triggers sound kick ass, hence why he does use them
George Kollias ... for me is the best drummer ... I have not seen another in excess of their speed and cleanliness to play ... like another great drummer Tim Yeung
No one can ever talk shit about metal, i would consider those who have succeded in it like this guy are the most talented musicians on the planet. like honestly, anyone who has ever touched a kit would know that this requires a skill level that most will never achieve.
Obviously every drummer should know that speed is far from everything, but every now and then youget a guy that's SO dynamic in his playing on top of that speed and your just like "The fuck?!" George Kollias is one of those people.
Yeah I dig what your saying for sure. And I agree. My point was the fact that above the speed is a lot of versatility and dynamics in George's playing.
Kollias the Destroyer, those single foot blasts,the double bass speed, and anyone saying his hands are sloppy needs to go listen to some carnifex for sloppy hands!
Once 0:54 hits...it's like 2 rabbits on Crack and meth and krytponite going at it flash x superman speed ....insane! And I love that riff right up to Karl Sanders saying "the skull is ripped from the spine"!!!
GK is a drumming god, and he uses My dads headphones, Extreme Isolation headphones are the best! /\/\etal George soo metal, thanks for the free dvd too again appreciate it much!
there is no 'best drummer' b/c as time progresses there will always be someone better, but dont forget Romain Goulon. Him and George are my two personal favs at the moment.
He is a fucking beast. No other word for him. He isn't a human. He is some sort of drum god. I'm going to go outside and offer my first born in the vain hope that Mr Kollias will see it as a worthy sacrifice and bless me with his drumming prowess.
No. Axis AL series in black. Same as regular AL's just in black... theyve been doing that since the 80's. On a side note.... Did anyone notice that George is playing in jordans? :]
@NeMcvey He's publicly said he records using both mics and triggers, then he mixes the sounds together... something tells me he needs to record with triggers to get the sound to mix...
This is how it goes, I watch one of George's videos, I go down to my drumset, try to do what he does, fails fataly and then I leave in shame. He's a god in the world of drumming, and those who say otherwise are plain stupid.
@TheNuclearAnchovies Some of us don't really care if it's triggers nor not. Remember it is death metal, and it is art. Lets all enjoy the music for how awesome it is :)
@Truthseaker001 quite- this is absolutly fucking amazing and i would never be able to this myself though. while it'd be nice to see him do my style because it's what i appreciate most i would say this takes more skill and dedication, he demonstrates competency with any style of drumming i think. that satisfies me as far as knowing he's good. he does not however in my opinion do the VERY MOST important job, make good, musical beats! but this is what complements death metal, for each his own.
George is great but theres a guy called Ukri Suvilehto who plays Nile songs with ease,actually even better than George himself,check him out he has videos here in youtube
this is the best drummer who ever has and will walk the face of the earth
uh huh
@@behindthen0thing no that would be Jamie Saint Merat ;)
Update from 7 years in the future.i was wrong.infant annihilators drummer is the best in the world

this isn't drumming anymore, this is extreme sports :D
fucking great job!
George Kollias is the most dynamic drummer I have seen in a long time......Rock on George Kollias!

I've been practicing this song for an entire year and I still can't nail it....goddamnit George Kollias stop being so gnarly.
George Kollias vids are the only vids on youtube that makes me CRY!!!
I would have had a heart attack doing 30 seconds of this! haha A huge credit to George's stamina and endurance.
UN-FREAKING-BELIEVEABLE!
Undoubtably my fav. drummer of all time...
Great video!
I've seen this guy live with Nile (one hell of a show by the way). Definitely one of the best extreme drummers out there.
i just laugh hysterically at how awesome George is.
best turkish drummer

george kollias is my favorit blast drummer
so true so amazing
Kollias é o melhor!!!Brazil

That's funny
Amazing how this makes me want to be better and give up at the same time.
Also, love the Air Jordans!
Speed! Blast beats! Double bass drum! So freaking good...
GK is a drumming god, and he uses My dads headphones, Extreme Isolation headphones are the best! /\/\etal George soo metal, thanks for the free dvd too again appreciate it much!
This man is a beast!
God of the Drums...
@RaverWhiteLight wrong, everybody knows that kollias is Ra not Zeus
@behindthen0thing you are right, It's GROWLING!!
unhuman fills - AWESOME. blast beat forever
perfect take
WOW just WOW!!
and the crazy part is he has power too...he's not just tapping...he's a beast
Ungodly brutal, one of the best drummers there is
Yeah you're kickin in ! fucking unbelivable
beats, my favourite drummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sick! it's to bad a lot of these negative comments can't respect it for what it is.
George rules.
i cant imagine playing a live show...itsd like 3 hours of this like wow
this guy is such a beast
Nile rocks !!!
Incredible drumming...

@nazzarre79 he's using axis a-l black edition with the e-kit. the Silver edition used to be slightly cheaper. the beaters are tama's iron cobra ones.
You see, the secret to his bass pedal speed is the fact that he doesn't actually move the pedals, he moves the world.
@knasroll - actually hes using his left foot to control the hi hat pedal whilst playin double base, u can see it in some of his other videos.
impresionante¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
such a badass
He is a fucking beast. No other word for him. He isn't a human. He is some sort of drum god. I'm going to go outside and offer my first born in the vain hope that Mr Kollias will see it as a worthy sacrifice and bless me with his drumming prowess.

On a side note.... Did anyone notice that George is playing in jordans? :]
im not really into this type of music but my god this man is insane
He has some side projects out of Nile, that also show his more flashy technical side, matched up with his everyday extreme drumming
@NeMcvey
He's publicly said he records using both mics and triggers, then he mixes the sounds together... something tells me he needs to record with triggers to get the sound to mix...
They're by a company called Extreme Isolation
Best Drummer alive cant wait for the new Nile Album
LOL you actually had me convinced bud! LOL
Damn you sick man... He must bike faster than a car ^^
George has enough RPMS to keep an engine running!
fuck! thisguy is a legend!!!
he is good .. real good !!
@devildriver676 oh yes he does man,he uses the axis e-kits kick drum triggers,as his youtube channel refers!
Oh lord, pete the feet 2.0
finally some good drumming yeah
This is how it goes, I watch one of George's videos, I go down to my drumset, try to do what he does, fails fataly and then I leave in shame.

Kollias is clearly a robot, because no human should be that good.
2:10 that's a damn signature move right there.
Faster than the fuckin'light😁...amazing!!!😈
He beats the shit out of the kick drums too; this is great! :D
i'd really like to see that, thats a hell of a claim to fame there dude!
@MikeJomara Its the music where this drumming is required
Indeed.
man his one footed blast are amazing...he can blast faster with one foot than I can with both of my feet! >_< it fucks with my mind lol!
@WTFeaRdowN do not forget Romain Goulon in the list of amazing drummers :D
@RaverWhiteLight I believe you mean, they didn't expect Ra to show up. Nile being Egyptian and all.....
I wander if he can play My Sharona.
@MandingoV2 yup, those are single strokes, not heel-toe. George is a god.
@Thatmetaldude590 I've seen it. insaaaanse XD. i sooo want Axis longboards. used them at The Drum Shop in Newcastle. sooo wicked XP
2:57 This is when the fire lays upon Apep xDDDDDD
man that double bass, TRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
see you in belgrade 26th january !!!
internet sarcasm isn't working, apparently. He's fucken amazing
George is faster with one foot then I am with two. Literally.
God-fucking-damn! George is insanely fast!!!
Drumming, the next Olympic sport!
and that sir is a fact. have you heard the band Drawn and Quartered? good stuff. check em out if you dont already know them
My god, if George's foot is stronger than Chuck's foot, imagine a roundhouse kick from George!
@FerchoH4x
I'm still completely lost.
@nazzare79 its AXIS and not alexis. and its series A, longboard.
@Truthseaker001 quite- this is absolutly fucking amazing and i would never be able to this myself though. while it'd be nice to see him do my style because it's what i appreciate most i would say this takes more skill and dedication, he demonstrates competency with any style of drumming i think. that satisfies me as far as knowing he's good. he does not however in my opinion do the VERY MOST important job, make good, musical beats! but this is what complements death metal, for each his own.
@vamsterr Yea, five pedals is overpower ^^
Check out Aeons of Burning Galaxies, he uses it a lot there.
this is really intense :)
Facking great drumming!
@BeezleBoy In fact it's not screaming, it's growling. Screaming is screaming.
that's fucking awesome!!!!!!!
God dammit---his technique just killed my inner child. (guess I will never be a grandparent)
George is great but theres a guy called Ukri Suvilehto who plays Nile songs with ease,actually even better than George himself,check him out he has videos here in youtube
I've been wondering if George could play Painkiller intro with one foot?
@vamsterr Yea, it makes the sound more powerful. Haven't tried them myself though ^^
Anyone calling this sped up can't have a slightest idea what this man is about.
awesome! a version with base drums instead of triggers!
