tony recorded the best nile album in my opinion. great drummer!

My favorite Nile line-up

Vesano was a MONSTER! There needed to be more videos with him. And the Barra Edinazzu transition was PERFECT!

Awesome man. I wish there was more videomaterial of him available. His drumming on Nile's " Shrines" is just amazing, creative, original, fast as hell and tight while still serving the music and not overplaying the band. Awesome drummer!

By far the best Nile lineup. I like what they've done since, but it's all really dry and sterile-sounding-Kollias is a beefmaster but a lot of the time he might as well be a machine. Difference with this lineup is they never quite sounded like they were 100% in control of what was happening, they were on the ragged edge, and it felt sorta dangerous and unpredictable. Dunno, maybe you needed to be there at the time, really. I'm glad I was.

I love his left china sound, OMFG

Still remember going to these shows! Tony was great! Jon was a beast on bass! 🤘

what a monstrous band they were back then. both in terms of pure audio assault and also in terms of presence lol

This is the holy grail of Tony Laureano Nile videos, no fucking doubt.

Saw them on this tour twice. Great band!

They went straight into Barra Edinazzu. Fucking awesome.

best drummer of Nile ever. 100%

Best Nile lineup with out a doubt

Best Drummer in malevolent creation....toni Laureano...

Laureano is a Drum Hero

Such terrific relaxation and balance!!! True master!

Love Tony. This guy's an animal.

this was the pefect line up

When Nile were the gods!!!! Incredible drumming!!!

tony is a beast. nile hasn't been the same since he left.

Chapter for transforming into a snake + barra edinazzu...jus cant take it anymore...aaaaarrrrrgggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

This is the best shit I've literally ever seen in my life

Laureano is a beast!

Ohh, sin duda alguna, de lo mejores de todos los tiempos, esta en mi top 5

why the f*** isn´t the complete show upoaded already!?? this performance is Just KILLER. Catacomb´s vibe at it´s best. the true Nile Damn it!

laureano has got STYLE !!!

1:28 that moment when the solo comes in…I wish I could write some shit as perfectly timed and executed.

Amazing

Who knew that Obelix was such an awesome drummer xD

This is awesome! Great video.

Man... this was THE line-up So sad this was for ITDS only

Melhor formação do Nile! 🤘🏽

Good quality video for 2003

Laureano is a god.

jon vesano

Beastly drumming!

I saw this lineup in Los angeles, 2003 on the "ART OF NOISE 2" tour it was one of the Best COncerts of my entire life! Nile Kreator Vader Amon Amarth Each one of them destroyed!!!!

I love Tony's sound on darkened shrines, George is faster but i like Tony's style a bit more.

please the whole concert!!

LAUREANO RULES !!!

dude makes it look so easy

Art

Dudes ive neen into the hate eternal / derek roddy / nile / george kollias universe for over 10 years. Why HAVE I NEVER EVEN SEEN THIS DUDES NAME BEFORE

it would be awesome to see the rest of this gig.

Lest we forget Tony's era in AngelCorpse? The Inexorable is phenomenal and probably his best work. I never got into Nile even after Tony joined, though I loved Tony in Malevolent and AngelCorpse. Colonel Sanders solos are that of a kid trying to play leads at Guitar Center on a Saturday afternoon and always ruined any of the semi-decent songs they had.

great footage

@DaemoniumCC Thanks for posting the name of the song! I lost this when switching computers, such a bummer. The solo section is sweet.. you think it's gonna slow down, but then fucking BOOM Karl time lol. \m/

This was definitely the best line-up. I think the current line-up is excellent too. But Karl is the only constant!

i saw them on this tour!!!

fucking sick, man!

What a fuckin beast!

@dime133 No problem man! One of my favorite Nile tunes for sure. I used to be able to play it on guitar but I've forgotten most of it. It's deceptively hard to play, especially the verse riffs and interludes.

@gutrot2 Me too, the new stuff is just too much of the same imo. After the Tony album my interest in Nile dropped a lot.

melhor formação

Kollias, Hammoura, and Tony 3 fucking insane drummers in this fucking great band!

yes

@gutrot2 yea definitely. it had more feel to it or somethin idk

Beast

I remember seeing Nile on this tour in Phoenix and wasn't familiar with the bass/vocalist at the time. Definitely was a surprise, he was a badass. Gonna have to figure out what became of him.

Chapter For Transforming Into A Snake... YESSSSSSSS

Good god thats fast!

And to the Owner of this video! HELL YEA!!! this is sick. DO you have Anymore?

Megadeth brought me here

his hands are made of springs man I'm telling you !

Kollias is very fast, but I prefer Laureano for technique. For me this is a best Nile's line-up.

Okay I'm gonna go take my bike to 200mph now

Fucking amazing Tony!

@DaemoniumCC It is fairly difficult, I could play most of it except maybe a couple of Dallas' solos..sweet shit. They get really into the fine points of their playing/technique.

A little mistake bro, the last music name is Barra Edinazzu, from Nile's first LP. =)

@DaemoniumCC Same here. I actually prefer hearing Laureano play it. The guitar is some technical work, depending on anybodys ability. I agree with it being deceptively hard, because they tune so low on 6 strings with so much distortion/mids scooped that alot of the low string riffing/notes aren't even audible at times lol.

Jon Vesano - best stage presence ever. well, maybe a tie with Erik Rutan.

Tony is god

What show is this? Saw them in Philly and it was absolute heat

He looks like John Longstreth's twin here, very similar playing, no?

@unlyckystrike yes he is hitting the snare.

@sammymesratti definetly and undoubtley man I miss it

I've honestly never seen anyone with single stroke rolls better than tony... I tried his technique and my forearms fatigue within seconds

Yes. So does George Kollias.

fucking respect. wow.

@happy5crazy yea i love chads drumming esp. on repulsive salvation, and crushed beyond dust!

LOL @ anyone who would DARE suggest Tony ISN'T an extreme-metal drum lord. Guy's fast, tight and professional. He also is amazing with his efficiency-of-movement. An oft-overlooked aspect of extreme players.

According to Karl: "Tony left, because Tony was unhappy. He wanted to do other things. Then I said that's OK."

Chapter for transforming into a Snake. Fucking Awesome.

NEXT MEGADETH DRUMMER

@Threske Why don't you play that fast and see how powerful you are. Theses are very fast speeds, and he's playing a long set. And you can hear everything he's playing because he plays dynamically for an even drumset sound.

oh man, i wouldn't want to upset jon vesano, he looks like he could snap someone like a twig

What has happened to him met him 97 at a deicide gig in Bradford

@unlyckystrike i think you're hearing the china

Jon Vesano should go back to Nile!

@overcontrol You forgot Pete Sandoval.

What song is this?

what song is this!?!?!?!

does he blasts with one foot???

@Loathing1980 kollias slays this guy man

Song name?

Jon Vesano is a fucking tank omg!!!!

Why did he leave Nile??

so does any true blastbeater

i quoted "in my own point of view". wake up

First comes Chapter For Transforming Into A Snake and changes around 2.30 to Nas Akhu Khan She En Asbiu. The last one is shorter version compared to original 4 minutes. From Black Seeds of Vengeance. What a Masterpiece.
