[nightmarealivemetal]

@hanlyrivas germany i belive and its more than just a venue its an annual metal fest like the largest metalfest in the world

[kommisar]

Goddamn, I hate how they played the same crowd clips over and over. They even played one with the sides reversed!

[Fraustt]

The Drummer has some EPIC pig tails

[ClaudioAHL]

What a great song! and the lyrics are just fantastic. Best DM band ever, definitely.

[gessIsRaunchy]

[guisdo45]

[fernandorodriigues1]

isso é a perfeição!!! hail nile....

[amzr666]

1:35 MEXICOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[blastbeatingjerk666]

i think one of the drummers triggers isnt working

[RiccardoTheBeAst]

Dallas: "We shall never be, the blessed dead!"

Vesano: "WE SHALL NEVER BE, THE BLESSED DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEAD!"

[EfeitosDoOcioMusic]

2 people are relatives of the pharaohs, who buried the servants live, affording no tomb.

[HardKore5250]

ive seen them live while they are technical their songs get repetitive. if they played it faster that would kickass.

[kennysandhoj]

The play it too slow! Must be because the drummer can't keep up..

[Pxmbbq]

Vesano has the antebrachial of popeye

[powermetaler93]

1:36 Mexico!! :D

[stabyourcat]

Weird that they don't show Sanders, even when he's growling. Nice Today is the Day shirt on the drummer, though!

[Sylvanranger]

@stabyourcat Surprising the cameras missed him the fat lovable legend :)

[AntiHero1996]

Chief Spires looks like Ross Dolan

[MutedChord]

@AntiHero1996 Hair isnt quite long enough, lol.

[xanjelx]

@AntiHero1996 That's not Chief Spires, it's Jon Vesano.

[AntiHero1996]

@xanjelx Oh, my bad. Thanks for informing me

[UFCNFLjunkie]

Tony Laureano is fuckin' throwing down!

[vivisection001]

Nile is the SHIT!!!!!!!!!!

[SlayEmAll1986]

I would love to see Nile live. That would be one brutal show!

[g0rgasm13]

I wonder the Nile's drummer. What is his name ?

[ConorOrthoptera]

@g0rgasm13 Tony Laurano

[hurjastilpsi]

soo god damn beast

[cobhc125]

fuckin blast beats aree so lame

[Grindcore66613]

Best ever, Nile fucking owns!

[4bb4th]

Who's the vocal on this show?

[sid8680]

@4bb4th Johnvesano...same guy who did Execration text video

[guyofmetal]

Chief Spires does bass and vocals

[sixfootcorpse]

@guyofmetal

Chief Spires wasn't on the "In Their Darkened Shrines" album, which is where this song came from. His last album was Black Seeds of Vengeance, which is the second full length album by Nile, Jon Vesano is on bass and vocals for this show.

[BRUTALPIGGUERRILLA]

tttttsssssssssssssssssssssss..­...

[CrushJehovah]

If ancient ancient egyptian gods made music, it would sound like nile.

[teezakar3a]

i dont know what that drummers name is, but the drummer who records all the songs is george kollias, i wish george could play live once

[DreamTheater4life]

the drummer is Tony Laureno. but george joined Nile in 2005 so he plays live with them all the time now and he's way cleaner live than tony

[Headbanger9000]

@DreamTheater4life Yeah Tny's drumming sounds insane on studio especially on this song. He's pretty under rated

[Headbanger9000]

@teezakar3a Um dude, George always plays live all of the live vids from 2005 up have him in the footage

[WhoRainZone666]

nice snare sound and an amazing band!

[VenomLady1]

Nile are just amazing, so intense love it..

and check out Jon and them muscles uffft

[Drummerthatismetal]

That looks like the Carpathian Forests drummers kit

[MrGgghhh1]

Hey DaSkLeinezeBrA, Go Fuck Yourself! Lets see you play anything like Tony.

[DaSkLeiNeZeBrA]

I don't meant my Comment to be offence! Everybody is free to listen whats he wants to listen but for me Metal means epic riffs and nice drumming and not simply punsh your drumset to death and shredd all the way.

[Harachen]

Your comment shows that you rate music without listening to it. This my friend is pretty technical death metal. These guys know how to play their instruments. It's not just shred and punsh. It's just fast and complex. You are more attracted to other music I guess. And you are free to listen to whatever you want. BUT DON'T RATE MUSIC THAT YOU DON'T LIKE, YOUR OPINION WON'T BE OBJECTIVE! And a tip: Try Opeth, I love them and they are more compatible to your ear + mix of clean vocals and growls

[Harachen]

Opeth plays more classical Death Metal mixed with Prog Rock and folky stuff. You have epic riffs and the singer has awesome clean vocals (yes he can sing *gg*) plus he has great growls up his' sleeve. Please give them a try. :)

[DaSkLeiNeZeBrA]

Your comments shows that your are not able to read carefully . I didn't judge this music at all I said is that it's not my taste of metal and that everybody is free to listen whatever he wants to listen to . The main meaning of my commetn was to clear up that it was not supposed to be offence. And I didn't rated this music either.

[DaSkLeiNeZeBrA]

can't really find any attractive in this genre : /

[lifeofafox]

I think I agree... but its just the vocals but each to there own I guess... it is growing on me though,

[Harachen]

I think the best song to start with Nile is "Annihilation of the Wicked". Give it a few spins... I guess it'll open you up for the more technical stuff. *gg*

[blackseedsofvengance]

best death metal band ever

[teezakar3a]

if u love nile listen to a band called Scarab they are from egypt but ull love them but watch the vid with good quality on youtube

[blackseedsofvengance]

alright will do, oh nice profile picture of the death logo by the way, lets keep death metal alive and well eh

[gregtarantino]

violence

[tool29danny12drums]

its tony laureano guys

[ariwa1987]

george kollias is playing for them since 2005, this is 2003

[HOOOODA69]

tony laureano hes fucking good

[ArchangelNesbitt]

no. its George Kolias.

[HOOOODA69]

what ariwa1987 buddy

[vaggsong19]

who is the drummer?

[drumcoverer]

george kollias

[drumcoverer]

no sorry it isn't kollias

[ArchangelNesbitt]

the hell it isn't. it DEFFINATELY is. the drummer for nile is kollias.

[drumcoverer]

no it isn't kollias . kollias is much smaller ^^ its another drummer

[UrukOfficial]

It's NOT Kollias!!!!!

He joined the band in 2006!

Just search George Kollias and you'll see that he looks WAY different.

Anyway, awesome vid!

[ArchangelNesbitt]

you're right. my bad.

[UrukOfficial]

Ehoho!

Nothing to worry about :)

[Drummerthatismetal]

He joined in 2004

[Drummerthatismetal]

its tony laureano

[BringerofDeath3]

I love how you can actually hear Jon's bass in this mix.

[metalkarloz]

shitty editing especially during the solo. Nile kicks ass!

[unite909]

impending doom.. literally? the band? seriously?

[thrashmetalowns666]

nile= impending dooooom!!!!

[Oceanus2690]

this is the best shit I'd ever listen

[ScorpioX19]

I seen Nile at the 2007 Ozzfest and the sound was HORRIBLE!!!

[YetiBerra]

Awesome

[kirbs72]

I've seen Nile twice in two different cities and the sound sucked both occasions. Apparently, I need to go to Wacken to see wicked bands sound the way they are supposed to. I should be able to write off an annual trip to Wacken as some sort of religious expense. Really. I can't believe just how amazing this sounds. Anyone who hates on this vid is just dumb plain ignorant.

[extremeheadbanging]

don't forget that when making dvds, they will usually use a line out from the audio board to record the sound, they don't actually pick it up with mics, it coulda just been the acoustics of the rooms you were in (i'm not bashing you or calling you dumb, i'm just syaing)

[bloodjunkie1911]

3:44. he says "you see my little penis"

[GoHuckUrSelf]

haha

[iheartclowns]

whos the bassist?

i can imagine him eating a child whole.

hes a fucking giant

[ekad]

Jon Vesano

[dmguitarist99]

Jon Vesano, and yes hes a fucking bus

Ross Dolan from Immolation is fucking huge as well

[math66x]

@iheartclowns Joseph "Joe" Payne :)

[xXxdaguitarfreakxXx]

@iheartclowns thats the lead guitarist dumbfuck

[DaCro313]

@iheartclowns id like to know it to xD

[Wozicasamoll]

@iheartclowns Jon Vesano

[Wozicasamoll]

@iheartclowns Jon Vesano

[bloodjunkie1911]

can someone explain to me who does which vocals?

[StealerAG]

stop at 2:53 : HE'S A FUCKING BEAST,GODDAMN!

Nile fucking owns

[grunerkaktus]

nobody is allowed to call this "untechnical crap"... great riffs, great vocals, great drumming, great song

[GhiliesSniper08]

this bands owns! The drummer (Tony) kicks ass!

[metalheadBurton]

these guys are sick!!!I hate this they can't come to Canada because one of them have a criminel file or I don'T know how you call that. i hate canada!!!!

[666satyricon]

Fucking awsome band......NILE.......

OOOOOOOHHHHHH George Kollias,,,.....

awsome dude.....!

brilliant drumming!

[espKuuo]

that's not george kollias, pretty embarrassing your comment.

[gehennax66]

hey, give him a break. i'm surprised there are people in sri lanka who even know about death metal.

p.s. satyricon, that's tony laureano.

[Krawnikal]

You'd have to be a loser to be embarassed over a youtube comment. Who cares if he got the drummer wrong the drumming was sick anyways.

[rexar79]

who is the bassist ?

[espKuuo]

jon vesano

[rexar79]

Thanks

[rexar79]

thanks

[largepeople]

huh. i never new nile played Deans!

[buikspiertje]

yeh they have a lot of guitars =)

[seba515]

incredible!!

[azreal66]

fucking amazing!!! tony is one fucking monster on the drumms!! love his work on this album!! hail nile! amazng guitar play by karl and dallas!!

[shayeasy]

agreed, this album solidified him as my favorite DM drummer. he plays so fast but still manages to hit so fucking hard. it's a shame his triggers were misfiring during this performance.. really misrepresents how tight and fast his kicks really are.

[azreal66]

yeah i agree,although i heard that the drumms were not his drumms or something like that,he had some kind of technical prob. i guess with thedouble bass! hail NILE!

[Nomekiller]

damn listen to jons vokals from 4:38 to 4:51!

[buikspiertje]

too bad there are only few good nile live-videos :( they kick ass!!! live as well!!!

[kornholiok]

looks like the left bassdrum has no sound...

[kornholiok]

wtf... first i thought tony does 2 foot blasts but then i saw his right beater at 00:26 and 00:47 and i just...o.O

[espKuuo]

best lineup from Nile

[ArendNijhuis]

heck no! their current line up is by far superior to this one!

[Panthraxritual]

no way man old nile is way better the new stuff is terrible in my opinion.

[buikspiertje]

naah newer stuff owns!!!!! George, karl and dallas kick ass together.... but they were and are a great band anyways!!!!!

[RigityRyan]

why is sanders so quiet????

[ArendNijhuis]

not to mention there is only like 2 shots of him the entire time? strange..

[NecroSlayer1490]

hahaha, how classy..tony has the drumsticks sticking out of his ass...yea great vid but the snare is pretty loud, then again, i spose the actual recording on the album has a pretty overpowering snare too, so meh..NILE!

[brentbumgarner]

Jon Vesano is an animal

[vacateistheword]

just for the record derek roddy named tony laureano as his fav extreme metal drummer... coming from roddy thats gotta be something man

[joeacey]

I think tony laureano is a great drummer , the snare is loud tho ... Kollias is a beast but.. and i know this may not go down well i think tony blasts better than george, george hits his charm on the ride too hard rather then the snare, on aftw album a lot of his tom work you can hardly hear

[levrone26]

tony laureano plays like shit!!!its bad for a so great drummer

[levrone26]

tony laureano is he?...he play like a shit look the same song with g.kollias and u will realized what i mean.tony laureano plays like a dead man heplays with no motion no feeling no power ...nothing.sorry for my english...and i ve seen him with dimmu borgir and he did a lot of mistakes.this is unexeptable for a so great drummer like tony....

[espKuuo]

dude, laureano failed at dimmu, but his work @nile's album was incredible.

[JimLloyd49]

I didn't think it was physically possible for this song to be played live but that was a fuckin awesome performance. The snare is WAY 2loud though.

[HauntedShores06]

that snare is 2 loud

[arthas11111111111111]

NILE !!!!! :)

[tutumonteiro]

This drummer is fast and very good...

But he's not George Kollias!!

Isn't the same thing!!

Isn't the same truck!!

[kurtnagel]

tony laureano is fucking legendary. i bet thats one of george's influences.

[skydiva1973]

my best friend is george's nephew and i get to meet nile when they come to sf in 08
