George Kollias - The Passage

[@gkdrummer]

For those asking about my solo album, everything is ready except a few lyrics. The only problem is to find some damn free time to record it...I will start with Drums in November and finish everything else in January so HOPEFULLY will be out. Like i said before it will be a FREE digital release so as soon as it's ready it will be in your hands...Thanks for your kind words!

[@panzerwaffen2873]

george is made in another galaxy..

[@trexao]

Of course!!!

[@laryflint2288]

The Best drummer in the world!!!!

[@Muckeman75]

Right!!!

[@orick20]

One of the all time best drummers

[@givemeajackson]

guitarist here... it's just fascinating to watch this guy!

[@Midas526]

I got into drums, and your playing had me go "Man, wonder what I can do?" and four years after picking up sticks, my hands are over 250 bpm. You're the best and an inspiration to so many drummers, hope I can meet you someday :)

[@trizzy8518]

Go to a Nile show then you can meet him afterwards I went for one, it was legendary

[@SKRUBL0RD]

unfortunately he died from suffocation under mountains of pussy

[@csmcilwain]

George is a master on drums!!

[@mayorrodgers7446]

The man is from the planet Kolias where they fast, drink I nectar, and play music.

Έτσι, τρελλανέ μας ρε Γιώργαρε!!!

[@smixxnwesson]

I can’t find the best words for this man…simply sick and man special thx matey ❤

[@Nekrist218]

Your solo project is awesome, I've listen to “Invictus" a thousand times by now!

[@timhenderson6473]

He loves that quick fill between the snare and those two or three front toms.and to play that right kick drum by itself that fast is beyond my comprehension

[@NevaEnuffDakka]

Between you, Fotis Benardo, and Vagelis Voyiantzis, Greece has some truly world-class drummers.

[@christianeasley767]

George---this song has has stood the test of time!!!! I cannot believe it’s been nine years--- thanks for everything!!!!! You squeezed in that two beat blast into every little note and I don’t think there is another song out there that is as complicated as this one on drums!!! Sandoval on formulas and this are the closest thing to get into those kind of drum patterns… even the new TERRORIZER/ has some very serious beats on it!!!! Keep up the great work --dude!!!! 🇬🇷🇺🇸❤️❤️😝🤘🤘🙏😇😈

[@Vorryngr]

Μας έκλεισες το σπίτι πάλι! χαχαχα!!! Μπράβο ρε Γιωργάρα!!

[@shadkin]

I know what you mean, I met George once and was litterally speechless, except for that was a great show man lol.

[@gkdrummer]

There are 3 reasons you might think Sethu's production sucks: 1. You're listening too many bands/albums with re-sampled drums... 2. You need to buy a new hi-fi system... 3. You maybe want the band to sound always the same...we don't though ;-) I can honestly say that this album has the best sound we ever had, that's mine and the band's opinion...by far! Now if you just don't like the new album in general, then i can't say anything...i respect your opinion of course... ;-)

[@Drumsholic]

I 'm speechless that you decide to explain something for your music cause i believe is personal only and no one knows exactly but all musicians can easily understand what work has an album behind the finally publication.

[@borninduat7057]

WE NEED A DRUMMER LIKE YOU !!!!!!!! *.* A GOD

[@AdrianoWotan]

He is one example of a good drummer in this world and serves the example for everybody that is beginning in music. Awesome !

[@cuvautoofficial]

It's the most intense single kicking I've ever seen.

[@michael09031993]

Goerge Kollias you are my favourite drummer i see you at 2.11 in giessen germany i´m so happy to see you and hear your crazy drumming!!!!you are so crazy!!!

[@gkdrummer]

Glad you guys like it....thanks so much!

[@johnhammond220]

You are in the class by yourself George One of the most explosive drummers I have ever seen

[@SarahAParis]

My favorite drummer! I always find myself oggling over George's drumkit.. it's HUGE! 🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘

[@HamerD]

anyone who says george is the best drummer ever probably has no freaking idea what they are talking about. But my god, is he a fierce metal player. The technique is OUTRAGEOUS.

[@SOULCRUSHINGMONSTER]

One of the most complete artists today!!! Find somoene faster and more accurate today, if you dare!!! There are alot of great drummers, but only one can be KING!!! HE IS THE BEST!!! FEW WORDS CAN DESCRIBE HIM!!!

[@NecroticPrimary]

Don't mistake my challenge to your statement as dislike for George, I find George Kollias as a VERY talented drummer, VERY fast. But Derek Roddy and Romain Goulon are equal to George on every level. They play just as snappy fast and are just as accurate. But George is still a boss. Don't get me wrong. I think George, Derek, and Romaine are the council of DM drummers! Not one king, but 3 council members ruling the drumming empire!!

[@alexsitaras6508]

Fah Que only bad things come from triumvirates =(

[@RuneGERPlayer]

Fah Que Always keep Jan Axel "Hellhammer" Blomberg in mind, he is just as fast as Kollias and in my opinion way more creative!

[@koekhapper]

To me at a specific skill lever there is equality of brilliance, but difference in style.

[@gamerdareswins2825]

RuneGERPlayer no way. Hell hammer is boring as batshit. I'd put nick barker waaaay before him, than Krimh.

[@JohnMorProds]

why do i always end up watching George's videos?I'm not even a drummer!I've seen this at least 4-5 times and here i am again :P .amazing stuff

[@DeadPhish812]

you have been my hero for the past 6 years...and now i give up lol...

[@gkdrummer]

Hahaha Every song on my new DVD has the credits in the beginning, that is composer/lyrics/label/release year etc. so i had to put them on. Having said that, NONE of the songs on the DVD have vocals on the mix, it's a Drum DVD and i'm sure many people outside metal will see it so i wanted to keep them all instrumental.

[@bettymendoza3607]

George you are awesome man you are an inspiration to many of us, to get better and better

[@Dtoburn2]

I like the drumming and the song too. Im looking forward to your solo album.

[@aaronpeter1042]

lovin' it! See you in Cologne on February 18!!

[@bloodandroll]

my god i never knew you played all the music ................. george you are one of the mainly reasons i play drums thanks man for delivering this awesome and beyond abilities music for us cheers mate! you are the greatest drummer!

[@TheReverOcelot]

Incredible perfomance, George!=)

[@MetalGearKS]

I tried for ages to think up a question in the hopes I'd get a reply from George, but I'm stumped. Anyway, you're an inspiration man!

[@mindstab4]

Genius. Master of drummer !!!

[@TorinMizenko]

A master at work. love watching his playing.

[@9cccaseycane]

cant wait for the new dvd, i can see its gonna be so awesome.

[@goregrind555]

Honestly as a musician I've noticed this band raise their goals high every time and always achieved it to the best of their abilities. George and Nile are both big role models for upcoming and new bands/musicians... certainly influenced me to play drums and play almost the same style as George, i learned from his videos, but with my own style of coarse... so sound quality does matter with the labels and maybe the band, but it isn't the main focus nor is it a problem in this album. Great Work GK!

[@Handinerd]

Looking forward to the new dvd!

[@mrcantgetnosyx2735]

Your a beast !! Who said you need two feet I do this all day!

Oh right I see. I'm really looking forward to hearing vocals on this track, and really looking forward to this DVD! This will help me teach a few more tricks and tips in drumming, and music itself! You're very welcome bud =) Hope to see you again someday soon!

This is actually really cool. I only planned on listening for a few seconds to get a feel for what you had in mind and ended up playing the whole thing. Hope to hear more from you soon!

[@Corrosive1]

Everytime I hear you playing, I can't help thinking youre having a hurry to a bus stop and have to play really fast because of that

[@TheZombiejohn75]

Absolutely fantastic. You inspire me to be better on the skins. Thank you for uploading this, Mr. Kollias.

I love your drumming its so sick. The things you did on the new Nile album are amazing.

[@steveb2606]

No way man, you are one of the greatest inspiration for me and for all the extreme metal drumming. Perfect sound, incredible technique...I hope I'm gonna reach 1% of your level someday. Keep going on!

[@TibzzTube]

I love the sound on Sethu! It feels raw, which fits great with Nile's genre and style of playing. I hope you'll continue to play it like that... \m/

[@Nefville]

I wish you would release some more videos I remember you saying you had a bunch of them. Its inspiring shit man, I watch these I want to play.

[@TacticalSwedishBurrito]

I really gotta say I love the sound of that kit! I love how your toms sound and that you can hear the hole body in it. Great! Good playing and cheers from Sweden. :)))
