GEORGE KOLLIAS Celebrates 20 Years With NILE - "If Someone Told Me About This Journey I Wouldn’t Believe It"
George Kollias, drummer for American death metal icons Nile, is celebrating 20 years with the band today.
George shared the social media post below, writing: "Today is a very special day for me, marking my 20 YEARS behind Nile Drumkit. 20 fucking years... wow.
"When I first flew to the US to join Nile, I knew I was going to stay, but if someone told me about this journey I wouldn’t believe it. Great times, difficult times, going through pain, injuries, success and joy, creating some of the best Metal out there and we’re still here serving this genre without any fucking shortcuts. I’m pretty proud actually, very proud!
"Big thanks to all of you for supporting what i do all these years, as well to all current and ex members that together we achieved our dream and helped Nile to get to new levels. Most of all, thanks to Karl Sanders for making that phone call back in July 2004... and look what you have done Karl! 😂😂😂
"Also a huge thank you to all my Drum companies for their tremendous support through the years and for trusting me playing the best gear out there!
"THANK YOU ALL!"
Nile are also celebrating George today, writing in their post, "It's George's 20 year milestone in Nile! 20 years of Metal - Blood, sweat, and tears - 7 killer Nile albums, uncountable tours, and constantly raising the bar in metal drumming. Cheers George!"
Nile unleashed their 10th album, The Underworld Awaits Us All, back in August 23 via Napalm Records.
Once again produced and recorded at Karl Sanders’ own Serpent Headed Studios in Greenville, South Carolina, the band returned to Vile Nilotic Rites engineer Mark Lewis (Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus, Whitechapel) for mixing and mastering.
The Underworld Awaits Us All’s mind-bending art was once again envisioned and created by Michał 'Xaay' Loranc, with reference to the cycle of life and judgment at its end.
