Yeah, you probably don't seem them on this board, because it's just a bunch of haters who have nothing better to do then talk about how much they hate a band.

Let's face it, dragonforce is the band everyone loves to hate.

the music they play is very hard, and if you add speed to that, it only makes it harder, which just shows how good they really are.





their lyrics are different from the same old "my girlfriend dumped me and now im singing about it" crap. They're original. Most countries embrace that and love dragonforce, but it seems americans hate them for it.
This is probably uncalled for, but...



Just HAD to find the perfect place for that picture. Oh, it hangs on the wall Sooo perfectly..... sorry, I digress.


Dude, music is not a race; you can't just have 4 or 5 idiots on stage trying to beat each other to the end of each song and expect it to be awesome. And it's not a ****ing make-up show where you can just cover up every blemish and pass it off as beauty.

AND being a huge fan of Death, here are some videos of theirs. Now I double dog e-dare you to tell me that Dragonforce is better than these guys...

I used to listen to Dragonforce a lot when I was younger, but haven't for a long while - thanks for reminded me of them!

It depends on whether you like power or death metal more. Quite personally, I prefer power metal, but Death are one of the best in their genre.

You are aware that this is not what they really would have looked like recording it?
They'll have sped it up about 40 times.

i am really not impressed with any of the Dragonforce songs I've heard

also I'm one to eschew technical abilitiies and favour actual songwriting

which is why I prefer early Fates Warning to mid to late, if you want to talk about power metal

I very strongly agree with that. I've never liked the tendency some power metal bands have to only develop one idea in songwriting, which is essentially what Dragonforce do, and focus on cramming as many notes as they can into their guitar solos.

Fate's Warning are much more diverse, also worthy of merit here is Hammerfall.

I wrote an extremely angry but completely non serious review of Inhuman Rampage if you're interested:

I'm trying to suggest some better alternatives for power metal, so feel free to post some links to some Fate's Warning songs that you like.
