Chris Adler (Lamb of God) on the Road (Part One)

[A7X19Zeppelin96]

Okay, first of all, The Rev didn't o.d. On purpose. IT WAS ACCIDENTAL. Second, Chris and Jimmy are both amazing drummers who's styles barely overlap into each others. Bottom line is, they're both great.

[sebastianjarno]

[HaggardChemist]

I'm not vertain, but I think Mikey B is El Fucko

[karralover91]

what cymbal was he using at :20-:30 not the china but on his left side

[undrneon012]

@karralover91

Forgot the name of it but it's a custom crash cymbal of some description, from Meinl im pretty sure, he talks about it on the Killadelphia dvd.....can't remember.

[JapNinja69]

People need to shut up and stop comparing The Rev and Chris. They shouldn't even be compared they have unique and different styles. It's like comparing Neil Peart and Joey Jordinson, it's just stupid to even meantion them in the same sentence (even though I just did :P) I like Chris and the The Rev a lot and I think they are both fucking amazing at what they do. That's just my opinion though I like a lot of differnet drumming styles.

[TheMakyoura]

Snare sounds ridiculously good

[WhereThereDude]

I saw LOG live in Argentine... It was so cool. Chris always play with a smile in his face ! so awesome !

[meamjoe]

they git my little...shit on there

[Kevinkoch2443]

You can hear the Paiste Flanger bell. That´s the truth that chris is loving this cymbal and no one can copy it! Got it too and it sounds exact the same!

[taypain]

i guess this video taken from concert of Turkey

[Poulmy]

5:27 This drum tech is so awesome !

[ChapterFour70]

lold at people saying hes better than the rev

[Tys602]

@ChapterFour70 no offense but the rev is dead. so he is better than him.

[ChapterFour70]

@Tys602 You're a huge douchebag and I hope you die. That is all.

[Tys602]

@ChapterFour70 woh woh. i respect the rev. he was an amazing drummer but you cant live in the past. the rev is dead. dont get me wrong he was good but he is gone.

[ChapterFour70]

@Tys602 Just because someone dies doesnt mean they fall out of existence. His music is still here and its 100x better than chris adlers stuff. dont get me wrong im a chris fan. but you're a huge fucking assholoe for ever saying something like that. I hope when one of your parents or somebody you love dies you realize how stupid you just sounded. Dont worry about your parents theyre gone dont live in the past.

[Tys602]

@ChapterFour70 you didnt even know the rev. you didnt love him. how can you compare him to my parents or loved ones. and stating a fact shouldnt mean some1 is going 2 tell me i deserve to die. the rev is gone so who is better, chris adler, yes the revs stuff is awesome and i prefer it over chris adlers stuff. but the point im trying to make was that chris is better because the rev is gone. if the rev was alive it would be a far different story. offense wasnt intended but im sorry i did offend u

[OGTheDemon]

@ChapterFour70 aveneged sevenfold is a disgrace to metal....lamb of god blows there ass out of the water there not a bunch of makeup wearin cock suckin retards like avenged sevenfold and i hate because when a musician dies...hes the best....the rev was good but chris adler is reinventing the wheel on metal drumming he is the embodiment of metal drumming today....so sry for ur loss....

[ChapterFour70]

@OGTheDemon He was better than Chris when he was alive and hes better now. Its not because he died that I think hes better, hes just a far superior drummer. Why are you so butt hurt over Avenged Sevenfold? What does wearing make up have to do with their music? Nothing. Kiss wears make-up do they suck too? Not to mention A7X stopped wearing makeup over 5 years ago. Its not my fault that Chris is an inferior drummer. :( dont be sad.

[OGTheDemon]

@ChapterFour70 dude u rly rly think that? like i checked chris hasnt overdoesed like some dumbass drummers do he has incredible rythym patterns and technique not to mention groove and speed the rev died for a reaosn prolly couldnt accept that fact that he couldnt shake it as a heavy metal drummer...and added one more pill to the batch...fuck that band a disgrace to metal

[ChapterFour70]

@OGTheDemon You're a disgrace to humanity. You make sick fucked up jokes about one of the greatest drummers dieing. I wouldnt do that if chris died. And im sure chris wouldnt make any jokes like that either. You're nothing but a low life, and why would i accept a low lifes opinion? He was a diverse drummer and played quite a few different styles and has some of the best song writing ive ever heard. Whats chris do? Off beat splashes oooooohhhhhh REALLY FAST DOUBLE BASS? OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH.

[OGTheDemon]

@ChapterFour70 looks like i struck a nerve o well did i make u sad:(?

[ChapterFour70]

@OGTheDemon Ya im going to cry :( my feelingz are ROOEND. Why would I care what an ignorant cunt says anyway? Just give it up already.

[OGTheDemon]

@ChapterFour70 if u think he was truly better than adler......hats off to ya cause ignorance is bliss and yea i dont feel any remorse how can u feel remorse for someone that kills them self on purpose?....the guy knew what he was doin u cant feel sry for those ppl.....get some sense dude

[ExplosiveNutSack]

4 - 7 goood lord!

[Grannyhauenstein]

What a stupid name for a band. This guy sucks. No technique, all double bass.

[paulc92]

@IrieDrumS vigil from as palaces burned

[jesse17ful]

FUCK JOEY JORDISON! ITS ALL ABOUT CHRIS! ADLER!

[JordanDormer]

The Rev is incredible, won the Golden God award over Adler.. Joey Jordison just won the award for best drummer over the past 25 years.. what does that say :)...

[WilonDrums]

@JordanDormer Its saying that those two bands are more well known than Lamb of God. Now i'm a huge slipknot fan but i think Chris Adler is more technical than Jordison and they are both equally skilled drummers.

[FunkMasterGodOfRock2]

@WilonDrums Equally skilled? Dunno like, Chris invented his own style and Joey sounds like every 14 year old metal drummer on more expensive drums and faster...

[Tylerthemetalking]

@JordanDormer jodison is over-rated AND George Kollias won the award for the best METAL DRUMMER EVER!!! What does THAT tell you?? george would destroy joey.

[Alexodrummer1]

were can i see more of chris adler and this documentary ?!?! :O ?

[vip1691]

@Alexodrummer1 This is from the Killadelphia DVD.So that's what you need to watch.

[Volentry]

One of the metal drummers that I respect. Creative and musical playing despite a metal drummer, tight and clean as heck.

[maggotflf]

are u fucking serious??jordison 4th..WTF??he might be the first man!

[metaldrummer33]

haha click this 4:07

[hakim0744]

hey does any one know the name of the song on 2:25 ???

[JackMehoff845]

@hakim0744 i think its the end of vigil but im not sure

[JakeTheDrummer18]

I don't mean to sound like a girl,but you ever notice how pro drummers always wear these cool OR weird as hell shoes?!?!?!

[IIScuzZII]

i now mostly there is to joey and i can admit he is more of a multi musician he play bass, guitar and drums and does it very well but he does play extremly fast where with chris he plays in his own unique way which i love so yea chris is a better drummer in the end but joey is an amazing guy very talented 

[thecorderosdedios]

halimaw

[Jordan19922444]

@MrVendetta151 It's your opinion, but I would never put Joey and The Rev before Adler.

[RichardJourney]

@Jordan19922444 totallyyyyyy

[cmc47834]

@Jordan19922444 excatly..put joey last and chris on top jimmy can stay

[rosefuneral6]

@Jordan19922444 Thats what i'm sayin'.

[DrumBum561]

@Jordan19922444 i would never put shannon george of joey before

[742617000027j96]

@Jordan19922444 I wouldnt put Joey and the Rev ON my top five list! Hell, not even on my top 10 list!

[guitar141144]

@Jordan19922444 I agree.

[bondjamesbond12]

@Jordan19922444 Yeah same i'm a joey fan but chris is way better the the rev and joey put together

[TommyOwnzU]

@MrVendetta151 i know its all preference but i definitely wouldnt have joey above chris or the Rev above Kollias :)

[glitchhacker101]

@MrVendetta151 wheres lombardo?

[AIZEN1401]

@MrVendetta151 u suck

[MrVendetta151]

@AIZEN1401 O wow i suck for voicing my opinion. Damn wat happened to america

[AIZEN1401]

@MrVendetta151 HAHAHAHAHA

[6stringshredd]

@MrVendetta151 shut the fuck up

[MrVendetta151]

@6stringshredd you r so ignorent

[xxxYugooxxx]

@MrVendetta151

LOL

[xXDrummer96Xx]

@MrVendetta151 really?

[punk9999643]

@MrVendetta151 Jordison? The Rev? Really?

[742617000027j96]

@MrVendetta151

1. George Kollias

2. Derek Roddy

3.Thomas Haake

4. Chris Adler

5. Mario Duplantier

[flippytheleper]

@MrVendetta151

you're a fucking idiot

[MrSlimshady2014]

@MrVendetta151 none of those people are ahead of adler. joey is good but isn't nearly as skilled as adler. the rev is good but not that good.

[headbanger101100]

@MrVendetta151 the rev sucks

[razor10haris]

@MrVendetta151 Joey Jordison is fucking gay. All he does is SPEEDSPEEDSPEED! I was a big Joey Jordison and Slipknot fan before I heard Lamb of God. The day I started listening to Lamb of God, I was like fuck Slipknot. Chris Adler fucking shits on Joey Jordison.

[undrneon012]

@razor10haris

Holy hot dicks from hell man i was the exact same \m/

[razor10haris]

@undrneon012 Hehe. \m/ :)

[mattv626]

I'm pretty sure his kit is so big he has to get air lifted out of it

[MetalDescendant]

Look at his left hand at 4:32

[californiadude98]

@Jordan19922444 No, it's the 'The Subtle Arts of Murder and Persuasion' from New American Gospel

[Jordan19922444]

@californiadude98 Corrected, I actually answered that correctly to DrumBum561 three months ago. My bad.

[davidskating33]

[afheadra]

@davidskating33 is 11th hour

[drumminator1000]

[davidskating33]

song at 0:04?

[Jordan19922444]

@davidskating33 sorry, 'The Subtle Arts Of Murder and Persuasion' from New American Gospel.

[feret1993]

easily one of the top 5 drummers of our generation

[oldskoolisthebest]

my inspiration to kick ass....chris adler

[drumminator1000]

what was the song at about 15 seconds in???

[Jordan19922444]

@drumminator1000 '11th Hour' from As The Palaces Burn. Sorry I took so long to reply haha I forgot about it!

[drmstcks11]

haha pun @ 2:45

[charimatic]

personally I think he's one of the most creative drummers I've ever seen, he's not about speed, he's about how it sounds and the impression that gives, definitely a very huge inspiration for me

[TheWezel1995]

3:48 There you realy can see how long his hair is

[garbanzojoe]

i know its also at six but its the same part of the song at 2:24

[DrumBum561]

Song at 3:00?

[Jordan19922444]

@DrumBum561 Omerta from Ashes of the Wake

[DrumBum561]

What song is at six seconda

[Jordan19922444]

@DrumBum561 The Subtle Arts Of Murder and Persuasion from New American Gospel.

[garbanzojoe]

actually the song at 2:24 is the subtle arts of murder and persuasion

[Edordorito]

Chris is amazing, he plays to the song. Most drummers just play fast and loud, but Chris writes stuff that makes the song better and more interesting. He has mad endurance too.

[marcschulz88]

song at 2 24?

[skaterbelicus]

@marcschulz88 not entirely sure, but i think its condemn the hive

[californiadude98]

@marcschulz88 vigil

[sidanftw]

[Jordan19922444]

@Remedy6sic6 He uses signature Promark TX5AX sticks, hard to find in Australia..

[phildrummer]

" this the part of the night where i go wash my balls off " lol

[MapexRG]

his snare on wrath sounds really think IMO

[metaldrummer47]

@MapexRG ya thats his sig. snare. Its amazing. Like its pretty small, and keeps it tuned the highest it can go. And its made of walnut! not even metal. lmao

[MapexRG]

@metaldrummer47

wow i looked at my comment and i said it sounds really think. good english on my part. i meant to say weak/thin

[EchoedTears]

@a7xbfmv923 yeah i like chris adler even more, he's ... how shall i put this... he's a drummer genious xD

[A7xdrumr]

[Unrated48]

[bgdrummer20]

@Unrated48 probably anyware online, or a guitar center store, pretty much any good drum store

[riomariucci]

@Unrated48 I bought mine in Germany. Haha, my dog even chewed them up and that was a year ago...had them ever since haha, haven't broken either! haha

[Unrated48]

@a7xbfmv923

just hate him cuz every kids think joey is the best , and joey himself likes to show off alot.. like.. playing in mid-air.. thats not even cool.. what the hell just play and shut up lol.. chris adler ftw =)

[Zackary1005]

" This is the part of the night where i go ... wash my balls off " =)

[Unrated48]

@Zackary1005

Your suited to talk about it ?! Simon '' Zackary '' Lindsay I like the feel when *munchmunch* hmmm cherry pie ?? Unwrap the Birds !!

[RobbieOtto]

Cool stuff, Chris Adler seems like a great guy

[drummerjohn007]

I love 5:30!!! LOL

[SanAndreasMysterys]

Chris adler is the best modern drummer by far

Listening to that lil piece of shit jordison or whatever annoys me. as a drummer myself i find nothing interesting about the way he plays Yet Adler is one groovy motherfucker

All Hail Adler

[vicentedead]

the song in 2:22 is vigil from as the palace burn

[haldir14444]

any1 know what song is at 2:22

[vicentedead]

@haldir14444 is vigil from the album as the palace burn

[88upm08]

I agree with libertheme66...the best metal band...and also the best drummer of this century !!!

[aileanwazere]

there was no such thig as metal a century ago so.. just go ahead and say the best metal drummer ever

[ItsOttis]

Hey Guys check out my video of chris accepting the modern drummer award and talking about his drumming career... thanks :)

[EBFTW]

5:42 LOL

[Getchafuck1]

BEST BAND OF THIS CENTURY..

[libertheme66]

BEST METAL BAND OF THIS CENTURY

[Getchafuck1]

damn right !

[MINIWHEAT70]

Really Chris?! My Chris Adler signature sticks broke in the first week.

So, I switched to Sound Percussion 5As.

Only because there heavy enough for me.

O well....

[plec14]

@MINIWHEAT70

wow really ive had mine for over a month and there holding up very well

[MINIWHEAT70]

Really? I guess I'm not worthly of his signature drum sticks

[riomariucci]

I've had mine for 6 months...still good haha

[ItsOttis]

Mine broke in 2 months :(

[er1k312]

4:06 lol, this is the part of the night where i go wash my balls off XD

[jakeysevenfold]

I do have to say Joey is a good drummer, but it's all been heard about 20 years before with drummers like Dave Lombardo. But with Chris Adler, he just has pure skill on the drums. And it isn't all about speed with him either, it's his technique.

I would definitely rank Chris with some of the best drummers in the world, like Mike Portnoy for example.

[darsnerd]

joey jordision is still good but overratted

[darsnerd]

joey jordision is still but hes just overrated

[thegoodmetal]

this guy is a good drummer in my opinion is better than joey jordison i hate this guy xD (joey)

[Jordan19922444]

I'm with you.

[plec14]

with joey its

"i can play this fast"

chris

"how can i make this more interesting"

[thegoodmetal]

yes

SUCK JOEY

(in my opinion)

[gaspar052991]

@thegoodmetal joey is garbo

[lucci97]

@thegoodmetal i love them both, but i agree, joey i think is more into speed while chris is more mechanical, and adds cool beats here and there

[randompinc7]

@thegoodmetal i wouldn't say i hate joey jordison but you're right, chris adler is far better, he cares more about the rhythm and syncopation wheras jordison is mainly about playing double pedal as fast as possible i mean, even in dead memories by slipknot, one of the not so crazy songs, he manages to slip in double pedal and a crazy fast roll around the toms! it's not always needed! XD

[willbob521]

he wears osiris shoes, that just makes him significantly more cool

[Visurit]

he wears db drumshoes when hes playing.

[langdonrry]

not anymore my friend. he gave that up a few years ago.

[guitarguru48]

2:34, he just goes to town on those symbols. Love it!

[somos999]

down on what?

[KMFn420z]

fuckin sick ass guy
