Aquiles Priester (born June 25, 1971) is the drummer of the Brazilian power metal band Hangar. In 2006, Aquiles participated in Fábio Laguna's Freakeys project. He is a former member of Angra.
Aquiles Priester was born in Otjo, South Africa. His first exposure to the instrument was at age four, while watching a jazz ensemble perform on television.
Aquiles moved to Brazil in 1977, and played football until 1985. In 1985 he attended the "Rock in Rio" festival, and then decided to become a drummer. Although he began playing on cans, he had assembled a set consisting of a snare, tom (which he had borrowed from his school), bass drum, hihat, and a cymbal which hung from his roof. He was strongly inspired by Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden). A local television band called The Tropical Band, observed his performances and invited him to play a couple of songs. Later the band Stylo Livre (freestyle) recruited him. Priester would have struggled for years to come, but he found success with metal outfits throughout Brazil, and eventually got the audition for Angra, in 2000. He continued to play with Angra until their hiatus, in the end of 2007, and eventually left the band to focus on his other band, Hangar.
Aquiles endorses: Paiste, Mapex, Evans, Pro-Mark, Audio-Technica, DW Pedals, Gibraltar Hardware, Zoom, Staff Drum, Santo Angelo, Urban Boards, Ciclotron, Shred Cases, AeroRic Custom Drums, Tander Tatoo Studio and Lady Snake Rock Wear.

Opasan co'ek! Ne zeza se ni malo! Mnogo je zanimljivo gledati ga kako svira, barem meni, svuda je, a izgleda kao da sve radi sa minimalnim gubitkom energije...

Re: Aquiles Priester
Sto ga vise slusam, to vise primecujem koliko je njegova svirka jednodimenzionalna, makar meni. Svidja mi se vizuelno kako svira, kakvu kontrolu i tehniku ima, ali mi je nekako dosadio...
