Dragonforce

Any metalheads check these guys out yet? I swear they must do oxygen shots on top of some heavy amphetamines to play that fast.

We needed more guitar heroes.

ah i used to love these about two years ago but they get boring eventually, listen to Valley of the Damned for the longest and possibily one of the fastest solos ever lol. It's about a 4/5min solo and the songs only 6:55.

Brilliant band. Cry of the brave is also good. Most of the people I know who like them don't have it tho.

LOL did anyone see the "betcha cant play this" video? with Herman Li being so drunk off his butt that he can't play.. lol.. its so funny.

but anyway they're okay.. pretty typical like stratovarius and sonata arctica (imo they're way better than dragonforce). Still fun when you're drunk though.

Nah I didn't find them that good. They also apparently can't maintain the speed when live is bad.

I have seen them live twice. They can really keep up the speed while jumping around the stage madly. Iv grown out of them now, and find them a bit childish, Gameboy music, but hell are they talented.

I can just imagine them throwing a pick into the crowd. "Hey its melted :-( !" with this puddle of plastic in my palm.

some of their music is video game inspired, which is why it may sound like "gameboy music"
however it is by no means childish
