anyone who says Casey is bad based solely on this video is both narrow minded and a complete idiot. This isn't a display of technique it's just a fun show for the fans to get all excited at a concert. The man is an incredibly accomplished technical drummer.
If you even think this guy is fast your completely mistaken check out mike the machine as they call him the worlds fastest drummer he could ripp this guy limp from limp

Meh, he's okay. He's good will double bass but not much else. I like his technique during live performances where he spins sticks and whatnot. But as a drummer, nothing too special.
well, he can't bring everything he can on stage. if you've seen his dvd, then it's much much more then just this. He's playing complicated jazz beats, different rythms etc. don't judge him after one view.
Without this godlike creature there would be no rythem to the music and havoc would incurr.
Plays with the precise action that only a master craftsman can obtain. Thats right, with sticks. Only people with the right personality combination can become a drummer. That person blessed will also probably have to owm a kit' to play with. And although guitarists are cool, there're one-hundred a penny. Sadly.
I admit, there old stuff was better than their new. But i like a couple of their songs on the new album. So yeah they USED to own.. but in a way they still do. Kamelot has owned for like.. 10 years now lol
I think he sounds great. But my friend says he is like far from being the best in his genre of music...simple question to that. How do you pwn a solo like this one??? XD cheers
What the fuck? This guy sucks? Don't think so. Check out Jojo Meyer and Tony Royster Jr- and don't give me any metal pride bullshit about how you can't compare them due to "different styles", because they're all hitting drums at the end of the day.
Hate to say this, but Casey is 10x better then Joey, I like slipknot but you cant compare two bands, not bands like kamelot. Casey has a different style, so you cant even compare them.
casey grillo is almost the onlyone who's playing with feelings and leting the crowd into the solo. It's like a show by itself. Go casey! in the center controlling it all!
Just a couple of things..If you want brutal shit, look no further than the 30 second long songs of grind core music- thats as brutal as you could get! Pig Destroyer!!!! But dont worry, Slipknot is the shittiest music ever made.
Cannibal Corpse is a satire in of itself, and a non-intentional one at that. The only real redeeming value of Cannibal Corpse is their shock factor, but other than their musical is horrible in style, composition, and execution.
Dream Theater = Heavy Neoclasical Progressive Metal!!!
Slipknot = it shouldnt' be called metal it's some ASSHOLES that doesn't show their faces kicking some cans and a guy who has a 7 string guitar that likes to get loud... GET SERIOUS that's not music!
Cryogen they are prog metal. They do actually use odd time signatures but you probably don't know anything about music so you wouldn't notice that. Tell me why they played at a festival called prog power ?
Tell me why Epica, After Forever, and Nightwish played at Prog Power to. Kamelot is Power Metal. Prog Power is just the name of the festival. They have had Power Metal, Prog Metal and even a few other kind of metal band play there ie Epica, After Forever, and Nightwish.
lol @ the dumbass who thinks kamelot is prog metal. prog metal uses odd time signatures, dissonant melodies and harmonies, and complex song structures. kamelot uses none of these. learn2metal.
I would say that Kamelot play Melodic/Symphonic power metal... It's deffinately not progressive metal. They may have some influences in some songs but they are few.
Grow some balls and go listen to some Death Metal At The Gates. Black Metal and band will do. Power Metal Kamelot. Prog Metal and band will do and stop listening to your Kidding Nu-Metal shit. Slipknot = Shit metal for Kidding Nu-Metaler's
PUT si son mongolos...! slipknot ni se compara, esos maricones son unos cagones de picha xq no es ni siquiera musica... son tarros y ollas... con un mae que tnia un sueño pero no se le cumplio entonces esta cagandose en la vida de todos segun el...
Man, Casey Grillo was the main reason I got into Kamelot (the others are good, but Casey owns them all). He's one of the best drummers I've ever seen, I gotta say.
There's more to drumming than double kick. Jordison can dbl kick and has fast hands but no real technique. At least Grillo has decent chops.Jazz drummers kick ass.
