GEORGE KOLLIAS-INTENSE METAL DRUMMING DVD-OUT NOW!!!

The final preview from George's first instructional DVD "Intense Metal Drumming".The DVD is available now at www.georgekollias.com.

[@Sickdrummermagazine]

Everyone needs this DVD!! It's sooooo Sick!

[@YannisStavropoulos]

When we're talking about George's level of performance we're talking about this extremely rare combination of a huge amount of talent coupled with unswerving commitment and excellent character. "Just practice" will probably get you near the metronome markings BUT it will take a certain ATTITUDE to get you anywhere near that guy's overall level! Believe me, I know what I'm talking about.

I have seen the dvd from a friend of mine 15 years ago and I still remember the excitement i felt when I watched it! Γιώργο ότι και να πω για σένα είναι λίγο από 15 χρόνων παιδάκι και ίσως πιο μικρός είχα κόλλημα με τη τεχνική σου και παρόλο που πλέον δε παίζω ντραμς εδώ και χρόνια βασικά,πάλι με ξαναφέρνεις πίσω σε εκείνα τα χρόνια που ήθελα να γίνω σα και σένα!

[@ImperialKiriyama]

Adding to Jampis' explanation: when triggered (haha, pun) the trigger sends an electronic signal to the soundboard or w/e so regardless of the softness/loudness of the hit, you hear it. It doesn't make you go faster because you still have to hit the drum to trigger it, but it allows bass drums, for example, to be heard clearly at the speeds these guys play at.

[@UltimateThrashAttack]

Il genere che ama e che suona richiede questo modo di suonare, non è palestra. Se non ti piace non commentare e basta.

[@vortexx1]

Just ordered this DVD about a week ago, can't wait :D

[@crush1st]

Damn...those 64th bass notes are killer. And his feet-sway technique...awesome.

[@JamesBorgir]

I love this man...

[@paulwall1981]

His footwork is outstanding. He must have rocket cars on his feet they move so fast. He is a brilliant drummer. I wish I was that quick. Good stuff indeed.

[@J0RD1S0NFR3AK]

he is such a beast n i love his kit everything sounds perfect

[@xedgeforeverx]

This is a must have for sure!

[@burythebody666]

My faviorite drummer ever, this guy is like my hero, so fucking amazingly awesome.

[@mistermysterious8834]

You rule, Kollias.

[@ChimichangaGuy]

i just saw them at the alrosa in columbus and they DID NOT disappoint

[@355000]

Awesome!!!!!!

[@samondrumssamriseborough5403]

George Kollias' Australian Drum Clinic tour starts this weekend with Allans Music + Billy Hyde! Tickets just $20 to see Dave Haley from Psycroptic too!

[@luxaceless]

Hails geoge.from Chile SouthAmerica¡¡¡

[@Blacklorigine]

@JoeyThePhantom George did a 215 bpm double bass run for 2 hours once. He said it to a forum member a few years ago.

[@korn94ful]

sin duda es el mejor baterista que he visto en mi vida arriba NILE

[@oOJampisOo]

It's a little device that you put on the rimb/part of the drumhead that let you modify/enhance the acoustic sound in a electronic way. Hard to explain, it's a device that kind of makes an acoustic drum in to an electronic one. Or at least partially. Does that make any sense?

[@kanyeeast99]

this guy and jordison is the best drummers in the world

[@gino_amduat_hor]

HE IS THE BEST, IS A GOD ON THE EARTH...

[@billygutter01]

I think my head just exploded. Holy fucking BPM, Batman!

[@ABCarmand]

i AM getting that!!

[@GrinderDeath]

how good do we have to be so i can buy this DVD? I would love to have it but i don't know if it's too much complex stuff for me.

[@xedgeforeverx]

yea I ordered it now I must wait...

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@COBHC279 Actually chris adler does use triggers.

[@xedgeforeverx]

So I just got this in today and its well over worth the money spent.

[@Runarfs]

AWSOME! like everything he does :P

[@Liynzhux]

How can I get this DVD in Mexico? I cant find it!!!

[@JuanCarreras1]

Does PayPal work with a credit card?? I need some help with that cous i dont realy know how all of that stuff works.

[@TotesMcGotes666]

This guy is a fucking god at drums.

[@xedgeforeverx]

Yea its a must buy no joke. Everything is really simple, for instance... I knew nothing about different notes but just from watching this I can tell 16th notes from say 16th note triplets and so on... as for the exercises, difficult to master but VERY effective. Buy and you won't regret. I don't. oh and its a pretty long dvd maybe 2+ hours without the special features or so?

[@bjorksven]

I'd like to see u play an entire koncert at these speed anyway.

[@giannos666]

his speed is unbelievable!!!:O

[@love2rocku2]

What's that song called in the intro :o ?

[@stoneddemonicpirate]

holy motherfucking shit! if i were a drummer, this dvd would be my wet dream. now please convince Dallas and Karl to release a dvd!

[@rsman169]

@MALSIV More creative than most death metal drummers.

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@supersaiayin666 he uses aquarian super kick heads.

[@sterlingian07]

what kinda pedals does he use??

[@Fentonyl]

The pattern George uses here is different from Derek's. Derek's has the left foot going in threes, George just does it side to side in twos.

[@decentdrummer911]

your right.

[@Nil8Z]

he plays with Vic Firth equipment, right?

[@carlwh123]

yeah same! good god, he's crazy.

[@Cokemonkey11]

swedie gravity blast might not be hard, but can u get to his speed/accuracy/endurance? I know I can't... not in that combination.

[@MikeGiunta]

what band does he paly in?

[@SandVoop]

5:09 I started laughing, it was just so amazing and surprising and totally mad :D ONLY GEORGE KOLLIAS!

[@Calibur43]

1:55 Artistic

[@moderatelyloud]

is the kick triggered?

[@carcassgrindcorpsesc]

yeah!!!! me too its going to be fucking great!

[@Cjthemetalangel]

wow..!!

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@LITUS121212 Actually he just switched to pearl that a GABRIEL KIT.

[@mr_wessumz]

wut is the very first song? other then that, amazing. wish i had this dvd. but 1 day i may be able 2 do this....hahahaha yea rite

[@JuanCarreras1]

I think that song is recorded just for the DVD

[@Anidrummer1998]

I like the fact he's not even trying.

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@fourftofury he can i saw him at a clinic in chicago he says its harder to play with triggers cause if you fuck up you can hear it.

[@Deimophobos]

the song at beginiing is laying fire uppon apep

[@sebbimon]

@awesome123allah Oh, thanks for noticing. Always though he was on tama drums.. :P

[@iWillwerk4food]

Thumbs up if this vid should be in HD

[@jmrocker]

holy crap

[@st3vet0b]

Actually you probably don't know who would win first, that would be very close, but again.... That's not the point. I would like to see George CREATE a jazz drum solo and have a drum battle with Steve Gadd or Dave Weckl, while they create their own as well. And then you might say vice versa but speed and power doesn't mean everything in drumming, it's rather technique, style, accented rhythm, grooves, melody, etc. And like I said before, I'm not trying to diss George, he's absolutely amazing.

[@JayBennett1973]

@faithandpractice right.. but i tried his foot technique with a cheap tj percussion pedal...it does not work.i cant get that whipping motion going with iit.i think george would say ...damn you need some new equiptment..

[@mikey102714]

DAMNN

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

No... it is not, it is an entirely different riff. The Essential Salts is at the end of the video...

[@Manzo27]

must.....get

[@shuldinako]

yeaaaaaaaaaa nile rulez!!!!!!!

[@ILikeBlastBeats]

I didn't know he could play guitar aswell. cool =)

[@H3ll533k3r]

HAMMER OF ZEUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Velcharoon]

Oh, i'm so sorry... george ftw... take it easy, damn it...

[@kingjamie721]

Just guessing here, but he might have very deep toms or maybe they have a very large diameter. Not sure but they probably factor into it!

[@luvetohate]

i wish i was as good as him. hopefuly one day if i keep drumming i will. but ill have to work realy hard and even then i might not become as good as him

[@Blacklorigine]

aeons of burning galaxies

[@ANTROPOFAGUSITALY]

God

[@proto35]

dude has mad foot technique

[@faithandpractice]

@jay112273 That's the sick thing about it. He could probably do it with some kind of rusty rake propped up against the drum.

[@techdeathdrummerguy]

@KsEZS666 the essential salts...thats the name of it...awesome song by the way...

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

oh... I get it. You are talking to the wrong person. You were supposed to tell that to Rinfurinmoshido, in which I already told him.

[@flippaton]

OMFG

[@CCorpseTorture666]

Oh i see what u did there, BEHEMOTH!!!!! :) \m/

[@MYM0NK3YD13D]

fuck well, i'll just have to buy the dvd

[@ManEHawke]

George or derek roddy? Nah they both are brutal man!!!

[@Videkiazene]

Yeah... true They use Meinl or Zildjian

[@D.M.-]

hes got the devils right foot :)

[@helenaki8]

3.30 freak out speed bass drum!

[@MarinoSesh420]

Whoa???? he can play guitar hoyl shit didn't know that

[@Stuff00001]

@1408dp Nile - The Essential Salts

[@st3vet0b]

Don't push it that far.... He might be the best mathcore drummer out there/death metal, and yes he is very good at keeping odd time signatures and very fast rhythms, but think of how many other styles of drumming are out there, think of drumming as an art and a skill, not just a skill

[@libertheme66]

kollias plays guitar wat since when

[@Hheawy]

it's called "swivel technique"

[@x1xNoisEx1x]

Damn... 260... I would be proud of myslef if i would reach 200 or even 190 on my feet... but yet I can't pass 130, how long wouldn't I play and how much wouldn't I practice... My legs just wont cooperate:/ need to get that DVD... And longboards of course. heh

[@x1xNoisEx1x]

the hardest things to play are at 5:52

[@cacon56]

well, then i stand corrected :D

[@200Tommo791]

Not my number 1 - but easily the best drummer in the world talent wise probably. He savages all life.

[@halabinono]

25 people have big slow feet and suck at double kick

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@deadissomewhere ive watched every video on youtube with tim and he is really good but i seen divine heresy live and he is better in the studio and i seen behemoth live and it was better than their albums inferno is just faster and more technical

[@ChimichangaGuy]

@notengomiedoadioses2 WHAT DO YOU MEAN REGULAR CYMBALS? THERE ALL ADVANCED SABIAN CYMBALS HE USES AAX, HH, HHX AND APX.

[@SchleinOfficial]

There is simply no way in the world I am not buying this, definately one of the absolute best drummers in the world!

[@crazyyvan0]

i dont even play drums and i love watching how he teaches all these techniques

[@martonkovesi8592]

5:07 f*king hard fill

[@henrithefreak47]

STOP SCREAMING AT ME TITLE!!!
