But back to dragonforce.. When I first heard them a year or 2 back I got into them for a while, and went and saw what I saw as an amazing show so for me to now say that I see emo kids being drawn into it and me growing from it's kinda wierd - but I'll reason with you..

What did I see in them? At the time I was into a bunch of power metal and that was complimentary to the genre, and I didn't think they were just fast, but technicaly proficient.. Then you say the singer's out of place, but the group's composed of like one musician from each continent practically - so it's an incredible fusion. Beneath their 'dragon heart flying .. swords shining in the sky' lyrics there's also supposed to be contemporary relevance, though I'm not sure on the comment being said - but that's always interesting to be viewed..

I guess I turned from them as they certainly stick with a sound, and all the songs sound the same - sure that's great when you love it, like my friends with Annihilator, but after that becomes a sickly nectar to you.. well..

I don't think I ever thought of them as heavy, but just seemed a little original, and could do what they did well - with incredible showmanship as anyone'll grant from their gigs..

DragonForce do some awesome guitar-work, but are far too cheesy, even for power metal. I think they're an alright band.

I got to agree with Dark Light. They're a bit cheesy. Besides, it is a bit hard to enjoy all those power metal bands when they all sound like the same. (Ok, ok, that's not quite true!)

Eh. From what I remember hearing I wasn't that impressed.

The sound of saws cutting through bone and the sweet smell of decay fills my hand with psychotic extacy. The feel of dead flesh peeling off your face, carefully I lift it off for my death mask. And through your eyes, I finally see Heaven.

Quoth heavymetalninja:

Your maturity, name, and grasp of the English language make me want to just turn away and not respond..

I think their themes are a bit cheesy for me, the guy who is constantly emerged into RPGs, but their music is amazing. You have to learn to appreciate some music for the sound.
Even if you don't like them, so be it. Pick up a guitar and try to copy one of the guitarists.

Dragonforce does what they do well. It doesn't necessarily appeal to me, but they have more merit than people in this thread seem to give them credit for.

Yeah, the music is good, but it is ever so cheesy. I can't listen to more than one album straight through without my speakers smelling of Stilton.

Still enjoy it, though, but only in short bursts.

Technically very good but no creativity or thought behind their songs. There are far better power metal bands such as Kamelot.

its cheesy in a funny way, just consider that these guys dont take themselves seriously at all and they're just here to have a good time.

too bad you cant say the same about every power metal band (yes, i'm looking at you Rhapsody. oh wait, i mean Rhapsody Of Fire).

To sing you must first open your mouth. You must have a pair of lungs and a little knowledge of music. It is not neccessary to have an accordion, or a guitar. The essential thing is that I want to sing. Then this is a song, I'm singing.

I am a casual observer of power metal, so I can say that DragonForce are a credit to their genre, and they do what they do with great musicianship and precision. However, in their past two albums I have found nothing in their material that separates them from their fellow power metal bands like Rhapsody or Hammerfall.

The thing that strikes me as odd about power metal is that it centers around amazingly long and intricate solos and lyrics about dragons and knights and battles. To me, that is what defines power metal as a genre. However, when fans of the genre listen to DragonForce, they automatically call them "too cheesy for power metal." Ironic?

You decide. I'm too A.D.D. for power metal or symphonic metal, so i don't have 20 minutes to listen to one song and find out.

@heavymetalninja
DF is not as bad as you think. Well they maynot be luminaries of Power Metal genre but sure enough they have some stuff in their music. They are 4-5 tracks which are really good and the rest sound pretty monotonous. They need to improve on that thing...and ummm... I guess the vocalist is being over-shadowed bu Herman Li's riffings. Hence he seems out of place :)

I like 'em, and kind of like cheesey stuff, it's fun and silly. Just a fun band to listen to.

I think they do need to change their formula a bit more.

Hate them.
No originality.
And yeah, they attract all the emo kids cause the play fast. But technically? Herman Li can't even read notes! They sound (or sounded) like crap live. Waaay too messy with the two guitars going crazy.

Of course Valley of the Damned was a masterpiece though. Its the rest that I dislike.

I have their albums, but over the last 6 months ive really started to dislike them a lot. I met two of the members after a concert and they were dickheads. Live they sound terrible to be honest, concentrate too much on trying to make it look like they are doing something amazing with guitar (picking up with bar, playing with hand over the top) other guys might make it sound good but it just sounded like a rabble live. They made fun of some other power metal bands I like by writing "are gay" on my friends flag when he threw it on stage. The only progression they have made is to make the music faster. They signed to road runner. They turned down Bloodstock for Download. The singer is god awful, I love high pitched power vocals lol but he is crap "Destin eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee , flying freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, eternal eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" terrible

So yeah Id say i dislike them :P.

Heres a funny vid

I find Dragonforce to be quite boring. Playing fast just isn't enough to interest me.

I tend to agree with mental_viking, I like listening to some songs once in a while, but, the songs don't sound different enough to catch me really...

Playing fast and, I admit, excellent guitar work, is not always enough to make very good music (in my opinion ^^)...

I hope they get a different approach to their music in the future, they're a relatively recent band...
