Multi-Cultural Power Metal Heroes DRAGONFORCE
Release Potent Sophomore Effort Sonic Firestorm May 11th
On European Tour with W.A.S.P.
Hailing from the United Kingdom, DRAGONFORCE is quickly becoming a force with which to be reckoned. The band releases their rampaging sophomore effort Sonic Firestorm through Sanctuary/Noise Records on May 11th. Not only is the band a unique entity in that they perform a brand of music that is nowadays nearly non-existent in their British home, but the band is comprised of such multi-cultural members, such a union would seem impossible. Composed of Herman Li (lead guitar – born in Hong Kong), ZP Theart (vocals – born in South Africa), Vadim Pruzhanov (keyboards – born in the Ukraine), Sam Totman (guitar – born in England), Adrian Lambert (bass – born in England), and David Mackintosh (drums – born in England), the band has evolved very quickly over the course of
two albums.
Having released their debut Valley of the Damned in 2003 to much critical acclaim, the release granted them amazing touring opportunities with heroes & legends like Halford, Stratovarius, Virgin Steele, and Helloween, as well as
prestigious spots on such festivals as Sweden Rock, Torres Rock (Spain), Young Metal Gods (Germany), and Bloodstock (UK).
Early DRAGONFORCE can best be described as a mix of modern melodic power metal with the fury of speed metal. Since then, the band’s style has evolved into an even more distinctive sound. By combining their favorite aspects of
different rock and metal styles – ranging from classic/power/thrash/speed/death/progressive/hard rock – played with high-octane energy, DRAGONFORCE’s sound may
now best be described as Extreme Power Metal. The supremely potent and instantly memorable melodies that stand shoulder-to-shoulder with outrageous speed, power, complex twin-guitar wizardry and extreme metal drumming are just some of the qualities that separate this band from the masses. Truly a Sonic Firestorm!
DRAGONFORCE is currently touring Europe with shock-rock stalwarts W.A.S.P. An MP3 of the track “My Spirit Will Go On” is currentl available at this location:
