George Kollias - Ithyphallic

[supermorbid66602]

the middle bit in this song makes me feel like nothing in this world is going to last... ITS DARK AS FUCK (1:34)

[kungfuman82]

I bet that when he was a kid his favorite Disney character was Thumper.

[Mjuzaism]

the only part i can play is 3:04 - 4:37

[thewarlord333]

Where the hell is my comment? 42 likes and 6 likes being higher than 144 doesnt work out.

[taspavlid]

What?? His feet is like Buggati on the road....

[SonderkommandoTW]

In Ancient Greece George Kollias Drums YOU!!!

[metalmessenger]

i've heard that he is not human......hahaha

[TheKeahs]

Good, but nearly as skilled as Justin Bieber on the drums.

[SlayEmAll1986]

If I can ever get to this level, I would die.

[TheMorbidAsshole]

ok class time to "BREAK A LEG"

[H2Zman]

George Kollias's kit has so many SYMBOLS it looks like a chinese translation of Moby Dick.

[Sabianstix85]

@H2Zman WHAT???

And the chinese translation of moby dick is Sushi

[Davidthedrummer95]

It's allways the drummer that gets the least credit in the band.... maybe the bassplayer but whatever. But in this case nobody can deny that he i what makes the band ^^

[divinegrinder]

@Davidthedrummer95 Nile was one of the best before him. Karl Sanders and Dallas separate them from any other death metal band. They require someone as good as George.

[igetHEAT]

this makes me not even wanna pick the sticks up anymore

[Sabianstix85]

@igetHEAT You kidding?!?!?, it inspires me to do that!.

[eatshitdiecunt]

damn this guy must be getting the fucking koota shards

[joeyjuniorjunior]

[alexyoungdrummer93]

ill sue George Kollias, he is raping that poor drumkit lol

[nuppe10]

I used to be better than George Kollias... then I took an arrow to the knee.

[shadowforc30]

@nuppe10 I used to take arrows to the knees.. but then I bought knee pads.

[crazyweirdo125]

@nuppe10 haha i nice one

[TiiHO91]

speed is not the most important thing about drumming...

[sebaswildboy]

@TiiHO91 of course not, the band favors speed, george kollias has a lot of technique

[alexhtp]

@TiiHO91 but what about extreme speed and extreme technique.. because you don't like this music don't make bad comments...why you do that?can you play like him?can any drummer of your kind of music can plays like that??nooo i on't think....(but kollias can play the songs from 30 seconts to mars(with one han and one foot) try to open your mind and accept that this guy is very very good drummer besides the genre of the music.and in this kind of music speed is very importand

[kansas2k]

@alexhtp i agree with u bro.. nice!!

[kansas2k]

@TiiHO91 yea but don't forget it is still one of the important things in drumming.. makes one versatile!!

[SethGoTribe]

looks like 15 people Forgot to ANOIT THY PHALLUSSSS!!!!!!

[snowfall1236789]

WTF.. Not happening!!

[stonehenge55]

Damn Kollias you are an animal! Kick mother nature in her face with your ENERGY LEGS

[folknatanvikingus]

Maestro.

[MrYeswecan14]

I wonder how fast he can mastrubate

[Vortexakos]

@MrYeswecan14 That's too damn gay mate.

[daniel93192]

@MrYeswecan14 you can not dont even close, to masturbate

[KelanteV]

[xXObscureNightmareXx]

Fucking insane! I'm gonna cover this :P

[85Aheadstix]

@xXObscureNightmareXx You cover this?!

id like to see any mere man attemt to cover this, George is no mere man, gotta be part cyborg or something.

[AspiringRocker729]

@85Aheadstix There actually are people that cover Nile songs on YT; one fellow covered Kafir, which as far as I know, is Nile's fastest song.

[1230JM]

this is the reason I want to play drums.

[givemeajackson]

@1230JM it's gonna be a long way till kollias level... if it's possible to reach.

[VanTorment]

EITA BUCETA!!!

[TheBandHaven]

Mann this dude straight shredded my face off.

[thewarlord333]

I wonder how fast he can ride a bike.

[KingKefka]

@thewarlord333 a bike don't want none of this mans feet lol

[MrHolm5]

@thewarlord333 LMFAO

[stoicfan]

@thewarlord333 XD

[kazarmageddon]

what kind of pedals he use? They must be magical

[kevinyo4]

@kazarmageddon axis longboards, theyre also fucking expensive,...

[kazarmageddon]

@kevinyo4 Thanks for the info. Well, i can't imagine drummer like Kollias to use cheap or middle class pedals :)

[kevinyo4]

@kazarmageddon no problem, my friend.

[Dimmuborgir6969]

@kazarmageddon its the Jordans hes wearing lmfao XD

[kazarmageddon]

@Dimmuborgir6969 xaxaxa i suppose you`re right :D Jordans+Axis Longboards = Magical SPEED and ACCURACY

[hlslayer123]

DAMN!!!!!!!

[MetalMasterMind666]

Has no one realised what the song title means? (Ithyphallic - To have an erect penis)

No one else find that funny?

[bounty2444]

@MetalMasterMind666 nah it mean like a gross poem of indecent poem

[MetalMasterMind666]

@bounty2444 No, it means what I said that it means...

[bounty2444]

@MetalMasterMind666 im pretty sure that my definition is what they were going for and it dosent mean an erect penis it means a statue that has an erect penis

[MrArghhhh]

@MetalMasterMind666 Yeah, It's also the name of a primeval form of a cult which simbolyzes somehow the tree of life and the strong will of life itself and its natural propagation by aadoring tinny little antropomorphic ceramic idols whit their pennis erected.

[Punjabi192]

@MetalMasterMind666 Phallic can mean penis but indirectly it can mean men(because you know they have penises) so when hearing the lyrics try and see what they are saying about men in ancient egypt.

[hlslayer123]

imagine how this guy knocks on a door...

[LeviathanHatred]

Who was gay enough to click dislike?

[asxetos666]

1:15 the camera is moving to george's awesomeness.

[darklordbaf]

Dude.... Kollias and the guy from Kataklysm would be cream!

[ToXicGunsmith]

who ever dislike this video his head must be put on the bass drum beater head and his forehead to aim perfectly the axis beater

[bastidador]

that

[bastidador]

i want to drum thiat fast when i grow up.

[SinEaterBand]

inquisidor1 Sorry man, I love Inferno and he's a great musician but not a technical monster like Hellhammer, Kollias, Roddy etc. Nonetheless, It would be an orgasmic experience.

[bastidador]

axis make the best kick pedals in the universe

[Mindlessfroot]

why did nile stop making music?

[zachf914]

@Mindlessfroot they didnt. they are still touring, and george is doing some project stuff of his own. theyre still together and have a new album coming soon.

[talldrummerdude]

@Mindlessfroot they didnt, there writing a new album now, or have written it and doing the recordings

[inquisidor1]

people XD my coment was with my favourite top speed drummers lml

[SkullcandySteve1]

This makes Chuck Norris look like an pregnant autistic cat

[drumlion2005]

Just jaw dropping incredible as usual!Ive got to get to one of his clinics some day.

[battoflitsa123]

o kolias apla xekoliastike s auto to video!!!!!

[DeusExMachinaMex]

13 people are fallen

[Santiago666Cer]

EL BATERISTA MAS EXTREMO DEL MUNDO AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG­GGGGGG

[Metal66671]

that snare sounds like sex

[Versenknagel]

The thing I love is that he blast beats with one foot.

[xXObscureNightmareXx]

To say He is a God is restrictive....Hail Kollias,absolute master of drumming!

[biwon]

Im quitting drums now.

[SHAuriscope]

2:22 insane crossover

[Mr46and2]

Insano Man!!!! Cheers for the tunes nile, i love how u just fuck my shit up! Its awesome \m/

[rohanpogi]

daniel day lewis on steroids

[attainableapex]

seriously how do you develop that speed and technicality and not be 100+ years old

[Charliedethklok7]

He wears Jordans! so unmetal . lol

[mcpeepson]

@Charliedethklok7 no fucking way really!!?!?!? llol HE DOES!!! haha thats fricken hilarious!!!



[Charliedethklok7]

@mcpeepson Lol

[zeropluszeroiszero]

Georges feet are causing all these's earthquakes.....

[ghomicide]

Fuck,,,,,

[lunchboxwhmpa]

How is it those sticks are still in one piece?

[lagartyjo]

Fantastic!, this is speed and technique. The best technical death drummer!

[StickFigureG]

not that impressive considering i probably did about a truckload of meth before shooting this

[arghydoodles]

HURR DURR WHO WOULD WIN OUT OF GEORGE AND TRAVIS BARKOR

[antoniotomac1989]

Watching it on YouTube is amazing, watching George live is something that blows you away.... :)))

[666x666Slipknotx]

Alll Tech. Death Metal bands drummer is fucking beast, they are usually fast as shit, Nile, Decapitated, Necrophagist, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and more

[antoniotomac1989]

This is amazing for listen, but remember music is NOT competition!

[AlteredVisionz]

@antoniotomac1989 hes not competing dude lol. this is a style of music that fits this style of playing. hes not trying to be the best of the fastest (even though hes definately up there) but its just a matter of what you prefer as a style.

[antoniotomac1989]

@AlteredVisionz Noooo, that's not what I meant. I din't express myself right, I was talking about people who are comparing George, Joey, Lars, etc. (you know, when humiliating Joey for not playing that fast). Thats what I dislike on YouTube, that's look like competition. George playing is very musically and has perfect sense, altough is very fast.

[AlteredVisionz]

@antoniotomac1989 yes! thank you. i just misunderstood you haha.

[jelaninoel]

@antoniotomac1989 not for this guy cuz he always wins

[pnh666]

Fuck This Shitt Is Dope.

[85Aheadstix]

YOUR A FUCKING MACHINE GEORGE!!!!

[ModernMe1995]

seriously how do you play double bass like that??? I need to know soo want to learn! :-)

[axerager]

this is just amazing,pure energy!...looking forward to seeing you in australia soon

[85Aheadstix]

@axerager DAMN FUCKING STRAIGHT!!!

[pastilance1]

0:10 George face is like "I don't care about stupid Joey so stop talking about him".

[BurningAlienSyndrome]

Thumbs up if you would like to see Romain Goulin and George rip each others head off in a drum duel!!

[inquisidor1]

@BurningAlienSyndrome actually a sick duel wold be: Kollias, Laureano, Goulon, Roddy, Krimh, Kolesne, Hellhammer and Inferno

[gameb0y86]

@inquisidor1 you forgot frost.

[hyrael2]

@inquisidor1 You should add blastphemer ( jan benkwitz )

[scoriametal88]

@inquisidor1 and tim yeung :D

[PlanBsk8er999]

@scoriametal88 hes fast but his pedals only go about an inch from the head.......and he doesnt have very creative patterns....but not trying to diss him cuz he is pretty good:)

[scoriametal88]

@PlanBsk8er999 yeahh, tim not blas beat or kollias

[Zachriah1]

@PlanBsk8er999 That's why there are triggers, so the sound is louder than it actually is.

[PlanBsk8er999]

@Zachriah1 oh yea i know, but that takes less skill. yea hes got it clean but other people, tho it may not be as fast or clean, could just go as fast as they want and barely have any power and be heard with triggers. i give way more props to the guys who you can still hear without triggers and theyre still going fast. and this is my opinion, but when the double bass is too fast , it sounds retarded and has no "emphasis" or "power" with the song. ya know?

[emilieautumnFAN13]

@inquisidor1 you should add Skaroupka to that

[85Aheadstix]

@emilieautumnFAN13 Agreed!, he is also a machine.

[putridpile623]

@inquisidor1 i think its just down between hellhammer, kollias and roddy.. krimh isnt in the same league

[inquisidor1]

@putridpile623 if you want in fast league it shoul be hellhammer, inferno, kollias, roddy, trey williams and max kolesne those are the fastest shit(in good way) i've ever heard

[MadSkeletonnnnnnnnnn]

@inquisidor1 Don't forget about Francesco Paoli

[Chrissinflamess]

@MadSkeletonnnnnnnnnn also dont forget Vitek

[DuTreyPont]

@inquisidor1 don't forget about Thomas Haake

[lvmdrummer92]

@putridpile623 don't forget nick barker.. he is the league himself. hellhammer is too sloppy to be with them so i guess it will be nick barker, derek roddy, inferno, george kollias

[putridpile623]

@lvmdrummer92 i dont think so its just his style and hes still AMAZING plus his band is so much more influential than all of these bands dont forget how creative he is he has so many stronger points than all of these guys. However i still think kollias is the best

[Fuck1nMetal]

@inquisidor1 add dave suzuki..... :P

[Wyndrax]

@inquisidor1 Don't forget about Lombardo and Gene Hoglan.

[Zachpaul95]

@inquisidor1 Dont forget about Kai Hahto!

[c4b0000m]

@inquisidor1 Don't forget the almighty Blastphemer

[wadi261]

@inquisidor1 you forgot hannes grossman

[deathbymetal2011]

@inquisidor1 what about frost? lol you cant list em all



[MalefactorCarnal]

@inquisidor1 Krimh? I love that guy's drumming but I don't think he is the same league as the other you mentioned just yet.

Add Frost to the list.

[MrMetalstorm666]

@inquisidor1 I agree but derek roddy isnt that fast and hes overrated.

[MegaNakki69]

@MrMetalstorm666 r u retarded?

[xXParanormalPunxXx]

@MrMetalstorm666 If you actually knew drumming you would obviously see that derek roddy and george kollias are basically like brothers, in a drum kind of way. One is not better than the other.

[rsman169]

@MrMetalstorm666 Wow dude, LOL. No comment. Saying Derek Roddy is not that fast is stupid.

[Thomasgipsy]

@MrMetalstorm666 I think you are confusing Derek with Joey Jordison

[unclet95]

@inquisidor1 I was waiting to comment to say "Don't forget Inferno" after I saw Goulon but was happy when you put it. I think like a drummer and love drums even though I play guitar :P

[townclutz99]

@inquisidor1 I'd kill to see Kollias and Steve Ashiem (Deicide)

[Astralsreams]

@inquisidor1 dude trym would be good too D;

[cptjackdrummer1]

@inquisidor1 laureano would be the only one i would take out of that. hes amazing but from what ive seen he has terrible technique. but its way better than mee!! XD

[Breadstickization]

@inquisidor1 And Mounier.

[85Aheadstix]

@BurningAlienSyndrome George easily!.

[Huze17]

he's really good but he plays to much black metal shit

[Immafishstick]

@Huze17 He plays what he likes... If you were this good I think you would be entitled to the same right.

[GrindStone555]

@Huze17 Black metal? Why dont you go google that and then come back here and feel really stupid.

[jfcmjfcmjfcm]

@Huze17 Well, that did not really make any sense

[Joshfry6696]

them are some mighty double bass legs there, sir!

[postmortemspasm]

I seriously challenge someone to show me a better drummer than this dude.. hes just... the best... eveeeeeeeeeeeer!!!!!

[BryceButler2]

@MetalDrummer6606 - George would fall asleep.

[Firewalking1]

I want to see who doesn't like this video, doing better!!!
