Those who say that this isn't music, it is. You may not like it but that doesn't give you the right to say it isn't music. It is much faster than most music and takes a lot more practice than just pop, funk, and maybe jazz.

It's not just about speed with Kollias. You can compare him with damn near any death metal drummer of the same skill set and you won't find many that can play with the consistent power, precision, and flawlessness that this this man has! He is the fuckin man!

I play a lot of fusion and jazz. This is where I'd normally cut the guy down for playing blast beats and monotonous nonsense like most of the metal guys. Not with this guy. He's got technique and I've seen him do crazy good stuff in other genres and styles. He's just plain awesome.

I would correct you saying that Death Metal drummers are pretty monotonous BUT that doesn't mean Death metal drumming is like that. I think most people say it's monotonous not in the sense that's it's not complicated but that it lacks dynamics. Playing very fast is impressive for sure but if you're just blast-beating your way through the song without changing or adapting to the melody, it gets boring. Kollias is, among many others drummers, a good example of what Death metal drums should sound like.

that is not because he is so fast, its because he applies pressure on the sticks with his fingers and its kind of bouncing better and faster, its a snare drumming technique.

His kit would take a lot longer to mic, the techs would have to be absurdly aware of airflow in the room and around the bass drum, and it may still sound muddy anyway. It's just more convenient to use triggers to clear the sound up. If you don't think he isn't hitting the drum hard, or isn't absurdly accurate, I don't know what to tell you.

Hi guys, take a look in GKDrummer chanell, there is no mistakes on the Kollias performance, Hi is a complete musician, he plays jazz in one video in his channel, an he has others performances in others styles on youtube. In the beginning, he says, he has interest only in death metal, but now he improved his skils in all styles. Remember Derek Roady plays like kollias an he is jazz drummer.

I don't think that's the right sort of attitude to have toward music. Any musician can put the same amount of practice into their style, whatever it may be, and end up at this sort of skill level but in vastly different ways. A metal drummer that's put in 1000 hours of work will have more consistency, power and endurance than someone that's put that effort into jazz, who'll have better touch and sense of improvisation, but who won't be able to lock into a groove like a veteran funk drummer.
