Dragonforce

[Celis]

These guys have some of the best guitar solos I've ever heard, and ZP has a neat voice ^_^. My favourite song by them is probably Lost Souls In Endless Time. Anybody else listen to these guys?

[MetalIsEternal]

through the fire and the flames, operation ground and pound, and storming the burning fields are my fav songs by them. i like how they do their vids with the zoom in box thingy during the solos. great band.

[Okita-Kun]

I'm honestly just getting into them. I love what I've heard though that is only three songs (The Valley of the Damned, Through the Fire and The Flames, Flame of Youth). They sound like a combination of Slayer and Iron Maiden to me. Which is not at all a bad thing.

I just downloaded a few songs. Lost Sould in Endless Time, Storm the Burning Fields, and Where Dragons Rule.

I'm starting to really love this band. The guitarists are really good.

[Ryth]

I just got their Inhuman Rampage album (and is my first Dragonforce album) and I'm enjoying it a good deal. Not the best metal I've ever heard, but I think it satisfying.

[iRevo]

Its been awhile since i listen to these guys, I like Through fire and flames and the guitar solo

Thanks to these guys one of my friends is now liking metal

[Masali]

I love/hate them. I love their guitar work. As a guitar player, you can't help but go "wooowwwww" when you see or hear them. But then again, they get really samey after awhile and start becoming repeatative and boring to listen to. Bloody brilliant guitarists though.

[Ryth]

I'm going to have to share that sentiment with Masali, after more thoroughly listening to Inhuman Rampage I can say the guitar work will leave you stunned, but it gets a little too repititious and starts to all blend into each other.

[bttr]

Fire and flames was the best^_^.

[BiggSam]

Seriously, that solo is insane
I have a friend who tried to play it, but he just messed up.

[Tetsanosuke]

I quite enjoyed their themes, as repetitive as they were they are like the RPGs that I so adore. They brought me so much inspiration in poetry and Role Playing and such, I absolutely adore that stuff.

They just plain rock as well, I say at least.

[MomijiTMO]

Ok here is my run down of DragonForce:

Absolutely phenomenal musicianship - the guitars and drumming.

Who else has blastbeats in a guitar solo?

BUT

The vocals suck and there is no focus in their music. Sure they can play their instruments but I see little or no skill in their song writing ability. There is no melody which is important in Power Metal too. I am another Power Metaller who dislikes them for these reasons BUT still listens to their music for the amazing guitar work.

So 50/50

[Lunafreya Fleuret]

Fire and Flames by this band was rated best on another site that I had recently been visiting. O.o; So I'd suppose it's alright to listen to. But still, I wouldn't say it's all the best.

[GaiSensei]

Sick band. >D

I love Cry for Eternity, Black Fire, and Fields of despair. Probably my favorite songs out of all of them.
Personally, I don't mind the retro-esque 80s-sounding vocals.

And the speed of their guitars = Total flamefest

[spleeee!]

Seriously, that solo is insane
I have a friend who tried to play it, but he just messed up.

well of course, i dont think anyone could play something that awesome other than them without dedicating their whole life to it.

DRAGONFORCE RULES!!!!!!!!! i love their guitar solos,best i've heard yet

[Gaarademon]

oh yeah i listen to the there one of my favorite bands out there right now
i have ther inhuman rampage cd...its awesome
operation groud and pound is my favorite song...for now

[Annik]

Hah. I didn't think anyone but my crazy friend liked this band. Er. Wait, maybe he isn;t the one that likes Dragonforce. I know he likes Power Quest and another band, but I can't remember if he likes this one or Master Plan (I don't even know if that's the name of the band)...

Well, I find Dragon Quest amusing anyway, but I don't have more than one or two of their songs.

[Amix]

Yeah, this band has some awesome guitar solos.. I mean come on! How many fingers do these guys have?! Like 20 or something?! They're so fast and so good. But then again, they could just be doing alot of hammer on's and pull off's. But my favorite song from them is "My soul will go on." I think that's what it's called. But they're really good.

[Masali]

they could just be doing alot of hammer on's and pull off's.

Sweeps and speed picking, actually.

[Dream_Empress]

Boring.

They are talented musicians who can't come up with better riffs for each song. The songs sound the same and are very repetitive. Hell talent is great but when creativity is not there then what is the point?

I saw them live twice and they are great live but I get bored after awhile.

[Neal Raven]

a brother of a friend of mine recently introduced me to some of their songs
they're a bit too soft for me most of the times, but they got some neat songs too

[Tempest Wind]

I love this band. I would say its my favorite, except two things:its VERY true that they get repetitive. Also, the singer(ZP Theart I think his name was...) is like a theme song from.....Pokemon:Bad sound, and the lyrics make no sense lol. Otherwise, this is a excellent band to listen to.

[Hamashimura]

More info would be appreciated,but wth...
Yes,I know about them,and I love them...
Dragonforce has awesome rhytm,solo's are awesome...
Theart's voice is beautiful,and their lyrics are great too,somewhat fantastic and epic ^_^
My favorite songs would be Fury of the Storm,Black Fire,Through the Fire and Flames,Valley of the Damned...

@ Tempest Wind - Their lyrics make perfect sense,they are supposed to be epic/fantastic...

[splark23]

the speed of the drumming in some of their songs is amazing, and i realy like some of the stuff they have done. i like valley of the damned and trail of broken hearts the best, but after a while they get a bit repetitive, although this can happen with any band. give them full marks for pure talent though, some of the guitar blows my mind

[JuicedUp]

I was blown away by Dragonforce's solos. Eventually most of their songs start taking on a similar rhythm, but they are still good. My favorite songs are Revolution Deathsquad, Where Dragons Rule, and....Starfire. Soldiers of the Wasteland is really cool, but I think they overdid it. I mean, over ten minutes of one song? O.o;;; Whatever, I'm not going to complain too much. It still is a good song, though not my favorite.

[Masali]

they're a bit too soft for me most of the times

Obviously he didn't pick a very good song.
