Derek Roddy's clinic Kansas City, Mo (2 songs)

[85Aheadstix]

WE CANNOT FORGET NICK FUCKING BARKER!!!!!

COME ON!!!!!!

[nateafire1]

he can drum

[vergamoth]

run derek run

[rlwhite68]

Rock guys love cymbals

[leanfiend444]

@rlwhite68 lmfao rock

[monkeychunkey]

I gotta say, george is faster than roddy but roddy has more of a powerful/loud side. He also puts a lot of his body into his drums also. A lot of extra (unncessary but cool) energy put into his music.

[TaintedConnor]

the 2 best drummers i think are Derek Roddy and and the drummer from nile.

[sick898]

his power is stunning!

[xbeast666]

I respect Roddy, but after seeing Trey Williams of Dying Fetus, Roddy looks a bit been there done that now... Sorry Derek !!!!

[justincpennington]

@xbeast666 roddy is pretty much treys god father of drumming,he would groove treys face off before speed even came into question.

[AChozenSunn]

yo, tell derek i need him for some drum tracks

[gilswc01]

roddy should have maintained playing with Hate eternal

[Bobio1138]

Derek Roddy always entrances me with his drumming.

[XxLudwiGxX94]

is roddy in a band or is he jst a solo drummer?

[vacateistheword]

OMFG..dude's gettin faster n faster wff!

[leanfiend444]

Having to pick between Roddy and Kollias is damn near impossible but I think I'd have to go with Roddy!

[teal1500]

@leanfiend444 i would go with roddy just because of his creativity and smarts in drums and he plays all styles of music

[Munki6]

When I first checked Roddy's vids AGES ago(back when everyone used Kazaa and that), those ones in his jam room or whatever, I thought he was some shitty amateur moron with a giant kit then the video started.

Then I cried.

A lot...

[NetherNoTwisting]

The fact is that Roddy has evolved a lot now.

[Munki6]

Man, he's always been amazing hey. I just thought it WOULD've been shit. Really surprised me there.

[SgtHaiter]

DuDE what is that shit at 5:30 thats like a clusterfuck of epicness!!!!!

[Joeskateapool]

this is a drum video of DEREK MO FUCKIN RODDY,so fuck off if you arent talking about it! and why compare GK and DR? they are both so fucking amazing I cant even explain it

[KEVIND666]

hahaha all of you have thumbs down hahaha

funny shit!

[METALxTAMAxHEAD]

whats the second song?

[swarmofworms]

that's a big china!!!

[RottenBlaster]

Derek is awesome dont get me wrong BUT.. George Kollias pwns him.

[M3G4G0TH]

say whaat? george has most of his inspirations from derek, mate... dont say that george pwns him, put them at the same level!

they deserve it.

[overlord3069]

@RottenBlaster

Shut the fuck up with your little opinions, you little mutt.

You dont know your left nut from your right about drumming.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069 Yeah, cus you know me.

[overlord3069]

Good enough to know that you dont know anything.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

I'm not gunna argue with you, simply because I don't know you and you dont know me. My opinion still stands.

[overlord3069]

Nobody PWNS anybody. George kollias is a great drummer, but his taste and style was influenced by roddy. At least learn a little history before you run around yapping about how people PWN people. Grow the fuck up.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

So cus George is influenced by Roddy.. He can't be better? I see how that works.....

Get laid man.

[overlord3069]

Whether he is better or not is your opinion.

In either spectrum, roddy was the pioneer if the style.

So show some respect.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

I showed my respect in my initial comment.. which was..... "Derek is awesome dont get me wrong BUT George Kollias pwns him" ... which is my opinion.. & you have yours.

[overlord3069]

Which is a horribly nieve, opinionated, and uneducated statement.

Did I ever say roddy was better? Nobodies getting PWN'd, for christs sake. Keep opinion out of it.

Before a man forms his opinions, he must first know the facts.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

Dude, what are getting out of the fact that I still think George is better?

[overlord3069]

Because of the way you said it.

Havnt i said that enough times?

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

You've told me your opinion & thoughts...

My opinion still stands. YOU will NOT change my mind. It's personal preference at the end of the day.. ANYTHING you say does NOT & will NOT bother me.

[overlord3069]

hahaha stranger danger?

I sure got you worked up, didnt I, you might need to calm down a little bit.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

Cus of a few caps? Ok kid. NEXT...

[overlord3069]

Uh. No. Actually its because you keep replying when you contradictively claim that you dont care about my opinions.

And caps dont mean anything, and it doesnt make your pathetic opinion speak any louder.

:)

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

Right.. cus that made sense.

You american retard.

NEXT.

[overlord3069]

It makes perfect sense. And how does that make me retarded when you dont even know what I'm talking about?

Once again, contradictory.

[RottenBlaster]

@overlord3069

Epic fail.

[ridder1705]

Roddy is the pioneer of this style?!?!?!

HAHAHAHAHA You poor kid....

Ever heard of Pete Sandoval????

Learn something son.

[blastmaster33]

@ridder1705

Pete Sandoval FTW!

[Chairmaneoin]

Derek Roddy has the most beautiful drums, nobody can deny that. wish i could afford to have mine set up like that.

[KoKaTa]

i can deny that...i think they look really uncomfortable,that is in case you are talking about his kit set up...i think kollias has better setup...as far as brands,i think pearls are cooler...reagardless...insane drumming...who gives a fuck about the brand or setup...

[Chairmaneoin]

I was meaning the way he has them set up. Just looks really slick and stylish.

[M3G4G0TH]

yea, typical non-straight comment mate... first you say that pearl is cooler but then, to aviod a discussion and look cool and mature, you quickly add "who gives a fuck about brands" so anyone who answers to your comment and says somethin about brands (which you provoke) looks like an idiot... :)

dude, cheap!

[KoKaTa]

of course,and because i am cool and mature, i know that my personal preferences make no difference,because we are here to comment on drummers,not brands.or at least i am...but of course a smart guy like you will ask y did i talk about drums and set up..well,exactly to point out that they matter not in drumming.

cheap...

[tamakit123]

@KoKaTa tama lol all the way tama just look at shannon lucas kit (drummer for black dahlia murder) his kit looks really comrfortable but its all preference everyone is different and both george and dereke are fantastic drummers

[monkeychunkey]

whats up with the end?

[mattmbdr]

See video details......

[JamesIsDeity]

derek pwns george man!

don't get me wrong, i <3 george, but derek plays the drums like no one else. i have never seen so much creativity when it came to playing drums, so that's my reasoning for that.

[ANGERINSIDE]

Since alot of people are putting George Kollias here I guess I`ll say that George and Derek are both amazing drummers in there own way in my opinion they are so freiking amazing you just love to see those two kick the shit out of there drumms

[Decapithagore]

would love to see derek vs. george kollias

[JamesIsDeity]

derek would pwn george.

[Hheawy]

Would be an interesting contest...

I guess Derek could have something in pocket to answer Kollias' 280 bpm one foot blasts :)

[Decapithagore]

hmmm im pretty sure that george have his own trick in his pocket like this ;)..anyway...it will be amazing

[Tyberious123]

damn at 7:14 he fixes his high hat as he keeps playing the song? that takes some serious concentration

[JamesIsDeity]

thanks for the upload!!

i must ask, did you get to meet him?

[mattmbdr]

Yeah, Derek's my boy!!

[JamesIsDeity]

DUUUUUUUDEEE!!!

HOOK A BROTHA UP MAN!!!!

derek is god!!!!

seriously, i am way jealous! haha

[blasphemylolz]

He's an awesome dude, I saw him in Cape Town South Africa, we were playing on his kit! :D

[JamesIsDeity]

you'z lucky!!

congrats though!! :D!

[VicenteKidd]

george :)

[MrWalla17]

brutal derek uno de los mejores bateristas extremos...junto con george kollias y inferno...ojala algun dia tenga la oportunidad de verlos en vivo...!!!

[demonaz667]

awesome!!!

[decentdrummer911]

Big crowd.....

[blood6heresy]

the first 3 min sund like some nle shit

FUK YEA Roddy rules.

as does nile

[tmergel]

Derek has something set up here in KCMO!? WHERE IS IT?!?!?!?!

[KarlovackoFan]

it sounds just like somebody throws 10000 kg of potatoes on drums.

[HauntedShores06]

have no idea why people gave me thumbs down for saying inferno was great aswell. if you get inferno up on wikipedia it ses "He is known as one of the fastest and most technically proficient drummers in today's death metal scene" people obviously know fuck all about him

[Motazaliad]

tru tru!!

quite frankly behemoth is one of the best extreme bands out there, and inferno is.... well... his name pretty much says it all!!

still, no one will top Nile as far as death metal goes, in my humble opinion! Roddy and Kollias own

[nonhasthisusername]

@Motazaliad well to be honest i'd consider george, derek and inferno as the deadly trio, they are just a league beyond everyone else. still many other good drummers, but they are just the shit, can't put it in words:P

[Motazaliad]

@nonhasthisusername fully agreed man! when brutalilty is the question, them 3 are the answer

[85Aheadstix]

@Motazaliad Im sorry but george would be able to play anything roddy does blindfolded and hog tied.

roddy always looks like hes struggling in some way, George is just to good.

I would not even put roddy in the same league as Kollias anymore.

[Grimreaperguitarist]

tightens high hats and keeps on going holy crap lol

[jayakishore1234]

the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

[sexblaster]

motherf***k i don't know xd

[doodoo1332]

5:27 FTW BITCH

[cristian2001]

LOOLLLL now that's THE drummer

[doodoo1332]

hell yea

[ChrisB171]

WOW @ 5:27.

[blastbeattom66]

the left china looks huge ha

[123LambofGod123]

This guy is the best Metal Drummer out there, speed and consistency wise, George Kollias is right up there too!!

[HauntedShores06]

and inferno :-)

[spencedaddy11]

and Flo from Cryptopsy

[largepeople]

SICK

[666satyricon]

fucking awesome man \m/

[ChordxClient]

5:27 FTW!!!

Haha, the whole video is seriously amazing and I've been studying Derek for the past 3 years, but some of this stuff seems impossible! It's so hard (for me) to do fills from right to left.

[NocturnalWinter]

wow thats one awesome fill :D

[NocturnalWinter]

hes my favorite drummer.. if anyone missunderstood my last comment

[ctempty]

i was there. killer clinic.

[Vissing]

This is the best ever happened
