DragonForce

[tristy]

No, seriously, how can anyone like them? I'm listening to Through The Fire & Flames, and it's wanky, pretentious and cheesy as hell. Oh my god.

If you're going to listen to shit about dragons and elves and shit, atleast listen to a band that rocks balls. Like Amon Amarth or something.

Hoooly shit.

My brother put on Attack of the Show and one of the guitar players tripped over another one in the middle of that song. T'was funny. Their guitar players are amazing, not sure if I can call myself a fan but the guitar playing blows me away.

EDIT: Had to rephrase myself.

I like Dragonforce. I also like Amon Amarth. It must be the cheesy vocals that puts people off Dragonfoce, because the guitars are amazing. tbh, I don't like the vocals either.

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

I can't decide if I like Dragonforce of not. Sometimes, I listen and I think it sounds amazing. Other times I listen and I think it sounds ridiculous.

[Bushmeister]

If I want video game metal, I'll listen to HORSE the Band or Machinae Supremacy, thank you very much. At least they use actual video game consoles to create a part of their music instead of a pair of wanking guitarists.

Yeah, I don't have much love for DF either.

[MalaCloudy Black]

I prefer Blind Guardian.

I thought that was the point? I enjoy them basically BECAUSE of that

[Liam]

Exactly....Tristy, you miss the point if you think Power Metal is anything but wanky, pretentious and cheesy as hell.

I don't mind Dragonforce, but I'm not the hugest Power Metal fan.

[triplexpac]

My friend said Horse the Band and Dragonforce are playing here sometime soonish, I'm going to check them out. At least now I know what to expect.

[YI]

I'm probably the only person that thinks this, but the thing I actually like most about Dragonforce is the vocalist. I love that style of cheesy, 80's style vocalist. Yeah the guitars are absolutely stunning, but it doesn't change the fact they only have 1 chorus that they slow down and speed up when applicable.

Dragonforce are technically really good. I like them. But that's about as far as it goes for me.

[TOG]

I like them.

[Rashid]

I find Dragonforce a very boring band. They don't seem very entertaining. Their skills are good, but the vocalist sounds too dull.

I have to agree with you. You summed up how I feel about the band, I enjoy them but wouldn't call myself a huge fan. I wouldn't buy an album but I like their music. I think the vocals work for their music, it makes everything seem epic but in a silly way. I could picture the music playing during some silly battle between orcs and other fabled creatures.

DragonForce are great. Cheese has a place in metal and DragonForce know this. Dream Evil are another good example of this.

[livid]

Yeah that is kind of the point to DragonForce. That being said, they're okay. They were pretty cool at Ozzfest (from what I saw, the sun was in my eyes and I was in the cheap grassy nole) and I know they're talented, but it's not really my cup o'tea, power metal.

[MalaCloudy Black]

No love for Blind Guardian.

[Liam]

Blind Guardian are good, but Keith knows where it is at with Dream Evil.

[K]

They're playing in Camden soon. It's gonna wail so hard.
