NILE - Kafir ! - Drum Cover

[@KRIMHDrummer]

Insane! Not only are you quick...sorry very very quick... but you sound GREAT in your playing. Lots of tone and feeling in there for a metal drummer.

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

thanks ;) Your tones are insane too ! I'll upload my Pearl Reference Pure demo tomorrow, just a groovy drum solo, hope you'll stil like the feeling on this one !

[@warrenoids]

You got a Reference Pure drumset!

[@KRIMHDrummer]

Why should I not like the feel? ;) ofc I do

[@eliaselias4647]

​@@kevinparadisdrummerwhat's the title of the solo video?

[@wanjanechtangroeger]

Flawless victory! You make single foot blasts look waaaay to easy!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Thanks Wanja ! Hope you are doing well !

[@ralleralle8620]

im so far away from things like u do

[@FriendlyMxdder]

SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK HAHAHA

[@stephenlowrie4490]

And you make blasting look easy

[@sticksman7819]

When George joined Nile I thought to myself "if he ever leaves they'll never fill his shoes"today's extreme drummers are right up there and there's many who could do the job.this is proof

[@toddwilson9342]

I wouldn’t say “many”. But there is some.

[@desperanto.]

Agree, plus Kevin's blasts are more powerful imho. Sometimes it's hard to hear George's snare hits.

[@alk3603]

@@desperanto. Kevin’s hands hit harder, but George’s feet hit harder. It evens out

[@TCHICKIBRAXD]

@@toddwilson9342 I'll have to disagree. Metal is becoming popular again nowadays, mostly because of the internet and the counterculture of most youngsters who refuse more and more to follow the wokist garbage pop-culture. Also, playing an instrument (drums in this case) is becoming more accessible because of the technology advancements of musical instruments (triggers and light materials and of better quality for the equipments) and also because of the plethora of tutorials available in the internet. Extreme metal used to be super underground with very few bands like Nile, Suffocation, Vital remains, Cryptopsy and Necrophagist, but now there's almost like a new band every month releasing content on youtube, whether it be slamming death metal, grindcore, deathcore or brutal death metal. And some of them becoming quite popular amongst young metalheads like Infant Annihilator, Thy Art is Murder and Lorna Shore.

[@SimonBLOODHAMMER]

Great as always, Kevin! Love the drum sound!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Thanks Simon !

[@Trialbyfire.coaching]

Aside from the incredible performance, the sound is actually spot on. Snare is tuned to perfection, kicks sound fat asf, cymbal panning also done quite tastefully. Killer!

[@pugmonzzz]

Man, if Kollias is ever unable to play I know who I would call up. Amazing job!

[@lt.frankdrebin743]

So many good tracks on this album

[@nassimalsawaf5034]

their best in my opinion

[@Frostcrag64]

hey Kevin, you should try your hand at covering an origin song. it would be sick to see expulsion of fury or saligia

[@janneheikkila3913]

Oh, Saligia.. the song I always place highest among my favorites.

[@mark_of_the_legion2346]

I totally agree!

[@Nefville]

I second that... I love nile covers though I'd love to see blessed dead cover tony laureno at his finest!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

I've my idea for my next cover ;) But I'll consider this track for later !

[@heyimgoingtoplaysomegames]

@@kevinparadisdrummer I would love to see you tackle “Burning Pits of the Duat”, off of Annihilation of the Wicked. That song is such a full throttle brutality fest.

[@tman2953]

FUUUUUCK. This is too good. Many drummers try to emulate The Great George Kollias, most fall short. But you NAILED it. Captured the technicality while still maintaining the brutality and power. Best Nile drum cover I’ve seen so far. 🤘🏻

CAFÉÉÉÉÉÉÉ!!!!!!! ☕

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

XD !

[@joakdrums]

@@kevinparadisdrummer ça fait des années que je n'entends plus que ça et je m'imagine toujours l'empire du café qui fait construire des putains de pyramides pour stocker des percolateurs remplis à ras bord. Autre fait inutile mais marrant, le boss de ma boîte s'appelle Karl Sanders (véridique) . Et il boit beaucoup de café. Coïncidence ? Je ne crois pas. 👽☕😁 Sinon pour dire quelque chose d'utile, vraiment top la cover! Ça fait un bail que je vois tes vidéos et y'a du niveau et beaucoup de travail. Respect in the papyrus of shadow to protect the genitor of Ra from who is in the god's despair. (pour rester dans le thème)

Really love your playing! You're such a beast!

[@coltonkramer2472]

Amazing! Drummers of your stature are an inspiration to all of us. The bar is set so high but it gives me a goal to strive for! Awesome job man

[@SlinkyT82]

That footwork. 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘😲 Great cover!

[@whoareyou221]

Wow dude you’ve gotten a lot better since last time I seen you drum. Great cover! Very clean

[@pokezodia]

This is amazing! I'm not a drummer, but this must be INSANELLY difficult to play! Love this album, its a masterpiece! Congrats, you're very talented!

[@toddwilson9342]

Nice. The rate you pump out these covers and albums is absolutely unprecedented.

[@bryanritacca3782]

Totally tight,that was awesome!

[@AaroLappalainen]

Wow! That was awesome! And with mean push and pull action going on with the left hand! So clean!

[@thecyrhus]

Un monstre. Je t'ai déjà croisé deux fois à des concerts et j'ai jamais pris le temps de venir te saluer. La prochaine fois je viendrai, au moins pour te féliciter!

[@DrBlastianB]

Holy shit! Really impressive! Been waiting for a good cover of this song for a long time!

[@Opethianaut]

Great cover and I can’t wait for the new Nile album!

[@romulobastos4981]

Manda muito esse bicho, Ccongratulations Kevin

[@nickcollins9893]

Insanely awesome, Kevin.

[@danfish88]

One of my favourite Nile songs kudos

[@scenoptica]

Awesome cover, Kevin!

[@hsmedia3736]

This ladies and gentlemen is the best drummer in metal at the moment.

[@dimitrisgvs7329]

Dude Kevin is an AMAZING drummer but there are currently a few hundreds of others playing in the same league.. there is no reason to compare, we are not looking for the winner. just sit back and enjoy the music! peace

[@warrenoids]

Dimitrios Georgouvelas That’s what i like to hear!

[@apollodrumsgrk]

@@dimitrisgvs7329 bravo ... drumming is not a competition!

[@sticksman7819]

He is incredible.his hand/wrist on the blast beats with his left hand look so weird but such an approach that is mind blowing.flawless performance.👍🏻

[@sandro07warrior]

George Kollias?!........Yep! i agree! hahahaha

[@almostmatt1tas]

You're incredible. Wonderful cover!

[@jonwismer6235]

absouly sicking awsdome drumming vie seen in long time on this drum cover this why this music is exciting too how the patterns work when been written like this :)

[@denisx7015]

Perfect! Incredible cover!

[@Loidz]

How you hold the stick during the blast beat is so cool!!🤘

[@SuperCephalic]

Not only amazing work and perfection with the drum cover, but you solved the problem with so many videos by simply putting the three camera view all at once ! Sick dude ! None can even try to complain imo. You kick ass brother !

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Thanks ! Well the camera angle and editing is always an issue for me ! If you put all in once, it can be annoying too because it is too much to watch at the same time... So well I change this at every videos haha !

[@ricardoalbanopereyra5274]

Wordless! Perfect cover!

[@OfficialBloodrunner]

that one footed double bass blows my mind

[@TM-fr7gh]

I'm astonished at how precise this is to what Kollias actually does.

[@jeremyhassell7911]

Your technique is incredible!

[@ChuchoMoncho]

EXCELLENT!! 👍

[@workvisual]

Awesome sound!

[@michalwlosik3544]

Amazing playing. I actually thought it would be great if you also did a follow-up video for each cover discussing why you chose the particular song, a bit on the working process, the difficulty or most challenging parts.

What made you decide to switch from the big cube beaters you used to use?

[@sexypoulpe]

these ones are probably lighter and have more attack

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

No specific reason, just wanted to play with them again !

[@rabskylives1803]

[@HockeyPwnsBaseball]

This is one of the best covers I've seen on KZbin. 0:44 is fucking mindblowing

[@serpentscoil9868]

Is this guy using ankle motion for a single foot blast beat? What bpm is that? You and marthyn are the drummers I know that can pull of a single foot blast without using swivel

[@Meheboth]

Great Job! Did you play to a click-Track/ Metronome (and if so, did you create it by yourself?) or just to the Song playing? Cheers!

[@jordank5444]

Fucking incredible as always! I noticed you're back to using the direct drive option for your tricks. Do you prefer them to the chain drive Kevin? Cheers!
