@@behindthen0thing525 well it's a good thing he doesn't consider himself the greatest. Also disagree about him pushing himself. He jumped into a band as a drummer who couldn't play drums, so he had to learn along the way while trying to make the band work. He is where he's comfortable. I'm sure if he started like most drummers do, woodshedding hours and hours BEFORE even thinking about being a band, the outcome may be different.
@@behindthen0thing525watch the video he admits he is not the best. Chris may not be one of the greats but he surely influenced me in my drumming and for that I am thankful for.
@@deadmoonscriptures1556 it doesn't mean nothing. It is not as significant as straight practice and technique, but to say that pre-existing knowledge of another instrument or (especially) music theory means nothing is just wrong. Someone with an existing understanding of how music works and it's general structures will certainly have a better start than a complete beginner.
@@markhynes5160 I think you misunderstood me; my point was that it doesn't matter where you are in comparison to someone else on your musical journey. You can gather all the knowledge in the world, if you don't put it into proper dedicated practice it will never yield results. His thoughts regarding others progress in relation to his own is what "means nothing". I will attempt to be more clear in the future.
Is he the fastest? No. Is he the most technical? No. But what Chris does have is pocket, and taste. He doesn’t wow you with his chops, he does what every rock solid drummer does, sits in the song, keeps the pocket fat, and the feel perfect.
Art does a pretty decent job, but Chris was the pillar of the band. The guitars and riffs are always top notch but his drumming is what I dig the most when I blast it in my car.
My dad(who’s a drummer) had this on dvd when it came out that we got at a local music shop back home in Santa Cruz. I was 12 in ‘05 and I would watch it a lot and get pumped to go up in my room and play my kit! Brought back lots of memories!
I remember watching this as 13-14 year old in 2005-2006, just started to play drums, being mindblown by Chris's playing and trying to emulate everything he did. Even his assjumping on the throne. Love it.
Damn. Didn’t realize he learned so late! One thing I’ve always loved about his drumming is how clean it sounds: not just timing but volume. Each stroke sounds the same. He always looks so relaxed. I bet it was learning to play along with the Aerosmith cd rather than starting with a drum pad tbh
I am a Guitarist but love drums and to find out Chris was only playing the drums for 10 years when ASHES OF THE WAKE was released makes me really glad i switched to guitar back in 1980! His playing is devastating for a guy that only has 10 years into it on that record!😲😱
One of my favourite band, and most definitely one of my all time favourite drummers, hes unbelievable. Also I absolutely love Mike Bordin from faith no more
I've watched this set individually a few times, but it's the first time I've heard that they've never played Blood of the Scribe live before. It's an absolute beast, and such a shame that they don't.
People that hear this on the radio and just think theirs no rhyme or reason to it but then they see the band play it with their OWN two hands and feet and voice and then the look on their face realizing that this is on a whole other level. This is geniuses at their craft
When they got done playing "now you've got something to die for" immediately in my head the beginning of "the faded line" started and I had to pause this and go listen. Same thing would've probably happened at the end of "blood of the scribe" but the video ENDED HALFWAY THRU THE SONG! BOOOOO!
It's my favorite too, but the first I heard was Remorse is for the dead. At first I had a hard time with the vocals but it grew on me and I started listening to the other stuff. Now I listen to them pretty much daily.
I learned guitar at 13 and learned the very basics of drumming shortly after, but never had my own kit, so I’ve only played a handful of times. I’m 24 now, idk if it’s too late or not, and I don’t really care. I’m gonna do my best to do what I can. This is very reassuring to know he was around my age when he learned. I know that’s never gonna be me, but hell, at least I’m already better than Lars
I don't play Metal.. but Chris is one of my biggest Inspirarion to play .. I also started at 22 23 years old.. I am still not that good but I am trying to be better .. 😌.. I love this video so much .. ! The video did not end properly.. I had the whole video saved in my computer ..
Thank you so much for uploading this. I've searched for this for years and here it is again! My class teacher (we call it a mentor in dutch, it's the teacher who has your class for the year and takes care of you) loved this band so much and could'nt shut up about it. Great memories.
I love how the one camera guy keeps wanting to cut to Willie like...fuuuuck! I know this is supposed to be about Chris right now, but God Damnit they're both so F-ing good! 😁🤘
Man, I used to play drums about 15 years ago before I got married and I hope to pick it up again soon but i love music. I came across this video by chance. Not a LOG fan because of the vocals, but these two fucking rip! Came to watch Chris play, found myself wanting more camera on Willes hands. Both are great but Wille is a goddamn beast!
man awesome drumming from an amazing drummer. Chris if I could be half as good as you are would be a dream come true. love you man wish you were still with lamb of god.... although the new drummer is another amazing drummer.
as a guitarist, let's take a moment to appreciate how flawlessly Willie plays these songs.. what a legend
fucking beast
Velokor thinking the same thing
yes
That last riff from Hourglass is so freaking hard.
These guys are always flawless
In 2005 every metal drummer wanted to sound like Chris Adler.
These were the nicest and most peaceful times of my life.

@@clintondearborn3016 ❤
Chris Adler is extremely intelligent. You can tell that thoughtfulness translates to his success as a drummer.
His drumming on Protest the Hero’s “Volition” album really let him show off his chops. No idiot can lay licks like that!
Straight up wisdom:
"Drums are a whole lot of fun to play. It's not about beating yourself up for what you can't do. It's about what you CAN do."
Yeah he didn't push himself that's obvious
@@behindthen0thing525 meaning?

Lamb of God is not the same without you :(
facts unfortunately
Agree 100%......
But both their new singles are pretty dope in their own way. Art has his own style and Chris has his own. No drummer is better than the other.
@@ayusharipirala3121 is true, but sadly art has to play many chris' songs so this is so weird to listen
Where Chris Adler now??
Cargo shorts are just metal
Definitely 90s and early 2000s metal
2020 anyone ？
Meee
Here I am
I bought this DVD when it came out. Been a fan since 02
Maximus Gigantos still good in 2020
Yup
dude started playing drums at 21 and is better than I will ever be at any instrument...
but he knew a lot about music when he started playing drums
@@pianistanton1 That means nothing. Proper practice trumps knowledge every time.

Just practice dude.

Most metal drummers these days just copy what the guitars are doing. I like Adler because he’s more than just that. 💪
let's hope he never washes the pants he wears, because you do NOT want this guy to lose the dirtiness in his pockets!!!!
Granted but actually very few end up being able to pull that off. He kicks ass and stays on tracks like no other though
Why is that the measure of a metal drummer? Just play whatever you think the song requires.
Chris did his homework, he listened also Billy Cobham and such as opposite to some others.
He’s a great speaker! Lol
Yeah that surprised me! He’s an excellent orator
I'm so sad about that he's no longer a member of Lamb of God these days, Chris is one of my inspirational musician for being me as a drummer.
I feel that Art Cruz is one of the only viable replacements but I'll always love Chris' feel and dynamic
Art is a top drummer but Chris was an integral part of LoG. I hope there’s no ill feelings with him and Willie.
Why he left
@@goukhongsai3796broken collarbone probably due to his motorcycle accident. Also I heard about the disagreement in the band so, I could be wrong.
that legendary snare tone will always be forever in our heart and ears !
RIP Modern Drummers Festival.
RIP any festival...
😟🥺 era de lo mejor estar a la espera de este festival.
Blood of the Scribe is one of the best riffs ever written. Guitar and Drums.
I didn't intend to lose interest in lamb of God when he left but I did. I guess his drumming is what drew me to the band.
His snare helped them have a more unique sound his replacement is killer but his drums don't sound very good
Damn. Same.
Art is a great drummer, but it indeed just isn't the same.
So you just never liked log....simple
Art does a pretty decent job, but Chris was the pillar of the band. The guitars and riffs are always top notch but his drumming is what I dig the most when I blast it in my car.
Not only one hell of a drummer, he's a wise man of teaching how much you can become a better musician while practicing🤘
I met Chris once after a head bangers ball tour in Atlanta. Hell of a nice guy.
My dad(who’s a drummer) had this on dvd when it came out that we got at a local music shop back home in Santa Cruz. I was 12 in ‘05 and I would watch it a lot and get pumped to go up in my room and play my kit! Brought back lots of memories!
Goodbye Chris. You will always be the best drummer in Lamb of God
I have this on DVD from 2005 and I’m still here watching this in 2020 🤘
Bloody brilliant. Chris really has rhythm
He is my favorite dble bass rhythm composer. His dble bass beats are second to none.
overrrated
@ edwin correa bet you think Tomas haake from Meshuggah is overrated too
his whole mindset on the drums is what makes him one of the best
This dude clearly never skips leg day
I’m a metal drummer and it’s all about the lean muscle, the explosive workouts too. Gotta be able to respond quick to do those triplets
Love him
I saw this live! I was blown away by his presentation! A great speaker!
Can’t believe it cut off the end...
Damn! We were jamming!
ua-cam.com/video/4o-iNcbZ18M/v-deo.html
Chris Adler was one of my main drumming idols when learning double bass. I always wanted to emulate his sound. Glad I got to see him live in 2007!
i love that his bass always sound so powerful and precise
Chris had the best hair in metal.
This is very inspiring! I cant beleive he began drums around 20yo!! Epic
Chris expresses his thoughts and points so effortlessly. Haha he could give speeches and it wouldn't bore whoever's listening.
I remember watching this as 13-14 year old in 2005-2006, just started to play drums, being mindblown by Chris's playing and trying to emulate everything he did. Even his assjumping on the throne. Love it.
I’m not drummer but being able to use both feet and hands with rhythm like that is amazing. No wonder his calves are huge af!
thanks adler for coming to nepal and gracing nepalese stage.
Chris Adler is still one of my favorite drummers. I love that kit the way he has it setup is so nice!
Chris proves that age is just a number. You can start playing drum/guitar at any age. Its never too late man🤘🏻❤️
Lamb of Chris .
I could hear the vocals in my head😂
Chris is an amazing drummer but I'm really appreciating that guitar tone! The mix is incredible 👌
Chris Adler will always be my favorite.
When the drum gig falls apart this dude should be a comedian, he's funny as shit
fucking finally, i've been looking for this full show for 5 years now
Damn. Didn’t realize he learned so late! One thing I’ve always loved about his drumming is how clean it sounds: not just timing but volume. Each stroke sounds the same. He always looks so relaxed. I bet it was learning to play along with the Aerosmith cd rather than starting with a drum pad tbh
@@Chuck_Upchuck No
Cris Adler my favorite drumer
2023 still chris adler 🤘🏻
2023 and this is still awesome!
One of my favourite drummer's, and a nice guy on top of that!! Here's to Chris and the rest of LOG
🤘
this shows remain forever when ever i want to have chris and willie adlers..
legend..
Lamb of god won't b same without u bro chris miss u🤘
These two are “lamb of god”.
I am a Guitarist but love drums and to find out Chris was only playing the drums for 10 years when ASHES OF THE WAKE was released makes me really glad i switched to guitar back in 1980! His playing is devastating for a guy that only has 10 years into it on that record!😲😱
my best drumer of the years and still 2021 he is still is ..even tho he doesn't play in lamd of god. but his work is forever thanks bro
One of the most underrated drummers in metal.
One of my favourite band, and most definitely one of my all time favourite drummers, hes unbelievable. Also I absolutely love Mike Bordin from faith no more
And you can tell that he loves Mike bordin from FNM...by some little tribal things he does entertwined with heavy and fast metal... Cool 😎
I love the sound of this kit and the cymbals are totally awesome !!
i watch his play when i was young still watching,, anyone 2022
I've watched this set individually a few times, but it's the first time I've heard that they've never played Blood of the Scribe live before. It's an absolute beast, and such a shame that they don't.
That snare drum sound's fantastic.so much weight and clarity to it.
Chris is a super intelligent dude.
"My name is Chris Adler, I'm not the drummer for a band called Lamb of God".
Loool
Megadeth drummer.now..
This 2024 im still dreamming of his show with lamb of god
People that hear this on the radio and just think theirs no rhyme or reason to it but then they see the band play it with their OWN two hands and feet and voice and then the look on their face realizing that this is on a whole other level. This is geniuses at their craft
19:44 - I have a picture of Adler and this quote on my wall in my drumming room. Such a great message.
Now you got something to DRUM 🥁 FORRRRR!
When they got done playing "now you've got something to die for" immediately in my head the beginning of "the faded line" started and I had to pause this and go listen. Same thing would've probably happened at the end of "blood of the scribe" but the video ENDED HALFWAY THRU THE SONG! BOOOOO!
Thanks for sharing such an inspirational video.Most talented and most humble man.
That vomit riff Willie is playing in Hourglass is so delicious! Deceitfully easy to play and it sounds so amazing!
just 2 brothers jammin'
2023 ❤ He is still the best🔥🔥🔥🔥
God of drums ❤️❤️❤️
This man was crazy, he still maintan his beat consistently, a lot of practice of course
I could listen to this dudes stories all day.. love chris.. killer guy for sure, such a genuine lovable friend \m/>.
“Now you’ve got something to die for” is my all time favorite for a good 20 or so years now and what made me love LOG to begin with 🤘🏻🤘🏻
It's my favorite too, but the first I heard was Remorse is for the dead. At first I had a hard time with the vocals but it grew on me and I started listening to the other stuff. Now I listen to them pretty much daily.
2023 and still revisiting this genius rising to fame...
Still can't believe he's been replaced. 🤧😭
mane i just love this man so much such an inspiration to me.
Been watching this video for like 12 years
Chris Adler is amazing
MY GOD! IT JUST ENDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A SONG,,.,
2022.. miss you Chris.. but Art is great too
I remember watching this when i was 16 ..insane
Brothers of Metal 🔥🔥🤘🤘
Just love both of them🔥🔥🤘🤘 willie and Chris🔥🔥🤘🤘keep making music Together..
GOD BLESS YOU BOTH🙏🙏🔥🔥🤘🤘
Best mainstream Thrash / Groove band since Pantera.

"pip farting on a snare drum." is better than Lars. Airheads reference
When u said that u are better than lars , is . Final , you are not a real musician and you will not be a good drummer in future
I’ve watched this DVD so many times it doesn’t load on any DVD player anymore. No Joke.
2023 nevers get tired of listing this legends

Love alders set up. That’s probably how I would set that monster kit up too.
Did anyone else notice Chris’s drum stick flip at 15:50?😱 so smooth
Watch it at .25x speed and you’ll be disappointed. Lol
Bro,help me,i don't see it.
Ohhh hell yeah!!!!!! Such a great drummer.
damn perfect, 2022 still hit it up
Chris thanks for saying that- sure it was a while ago but for somebody that freaks out to play in front of people its good to hear that! Thank you

best record ever
"nothing about this song is particularly hard" -Chris "the liar" Adler
18:40 damn if that doesn't sum Willie up perfectly
Incredible how he doesn't sit on top of his snare...incredible drummer and a super passionate player who respects his craft!
Will adler. beast!!
