They're playing just down the road from me in about 3 weeks time :-) Now, if you like Dragonforce, you should listen to groups like Hammerfall, Virgin Steele, Stratovarius and Freedom Call :-) BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Hi Nikki I'm a bit behind of my emails - Dragonforce are very very good. I've seen them live three times - first time about three or four years ago, and they are just as good live as on cd. I prefer their previous albums - Valley of the Damned and Sonic Firestorm, but that might be because I haven't played Inhuman Rampage as many times yet. I don't know if they have played abroad much yet, but I think they will. They are quite a young band and have plenty of time to become famous.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Well - to me the metal genres let me know exactly what to expect of a band without even hearing them -I presume it's the same with punk, but it wouldn't mean anything to me.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hi Jo I know that they were near here a bit this year, but I found that out a day before the concert and could not go. They were touring with the Oz Fest. It does seem that they play Europe more though. I love the cd and have only heard one song off each of the other two albums and that was because I found the track online. But I would like to get them.

They weren't so good the second time I saw them - but the other two times they were excellent... and they did replace their drummer shortly after that 2nd time, so I think it might have been to do with some difficulties in the band :-) BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
