Dragonforce Live - Valley of the Damned - Belfast Mandela Hall 11/10/08 [High Quality]

[ChuukeseStink]

Classic Metal Song!

[MegaPrincess1998]

Haaaa HAWWT HE TOOK OUT HIS SHIRT (THE SINGER!! OMG SO SEXY!!!!!!!!!!!

[skid544]

Dragonforce are excellent live. Go to a concert and u'll see :)

[DragonWarriorX99]

i love the extra little solo that herman does

I LOVE DF!!!!!!!

[trendkill29]

where is the high quality ??

[sean0775]

So from the sound of things, this song isn't a part of their normal setlist? That's disappointing seeing as Valley of the Damned is my favorite DF album. I'd have to rank them:

1. Valley of the Damned

2. Sonic Firestorm

3. Ultra Beatdown

4. Inhuman Rampage

Ultra Beatdown and Inhuman Rampage just didn't do it for me for some reason. The only reason I put Ultra Beatdown above Inhuman Rampage is because of the redone Shadow Warriors song...little Easter egg for their old fans.

[DemonFalux]

Na. Valley of the Damned is always on their setlist. It's usually their last song, but lately it's been replaced with Through the Fire and Flames, which is a shame because Valley of the Damned makes for a much better ender due to the epic outro.

[guitarfreak661]

remember this was the tour promoting the latest album, which at this stage was like 6 weeks old, they've always done this song live tho, ever since 2002 when it was released

[Rexter730]

last time i saw them they didnt even play VOTD :( it was replaced with Heart of a dragon, it was in may 2009 btw

[BiroZombie]

That's still a good song, though. I'd always thought of that song or "Valley of the Damned" as their last song to play.

[Dragonforceismyfav]

@sean0775 I know your comment was from a year ago, but why is Inhuman Rampage your least favorite Dragonforce album?

[sean0775]

@Dragonforceismyfav I hold Valley of the Damned as their best because every song stood out. Sonic Firestorm was excellent as well, though I'm not a big fan of Prepare for War (Disciples of Babylon 2). Ultra Beatdown had several great songs, plus a nod to the old days with Strike of the Ninja (Feel the Fire by Shadow Warriors). Inhuman Rampage had Through the Fire and Flames and Trail of Broken Hearts...those are the only two songs I liked off that album really compared to the old stuff.

[kaboomstart]

DragonForce are really amazingly talented musicians.

[jani14jani]

Valley of the damned have been my favourite Dragonforce song for 5 years now. When i saw Dragonforce live at Ankkarock 1.8 Valley of the damned was 1st song they played. its a shame that i ave to wait atleast 2 years now to see Dragonforce live again becouse they arent coming to Finland again on their Final leg of Ultra beatdown tour., so i hyave to wait That they make a new album and start a worldtour

[mightymasochist]

yep. i´ll be waiting for them. i wonder how much better album they can make. ultra button was a serious ultra fucking beatdown. ultra beatsdown all previous ones

[jani14jani]

They are The 6 Golden gods they can make a new and better album wich is even harder to play. I wonder how hard their next album is gona be becpouse Ultra beatdown is almost impossible to play.

[mightymasochist]

if they keep making such progress all their riffs and solos (especially solos) will be like fireworks. flashy.

[DGKALLDAYskater]

i love these guys all over again

[jawsunleashed5000]

R there any mosh pits at dragonforce concerts

[IamTheLandolfo]

sometimes. depends on the people really. at my first dforce concert there weren't any but at the second there were a fuckload of em. maybe it was the fact that they pumped alcohol into the air or something

[andrew3479]

o yeah there r! when they played at the intersection in GR michigan there was a mosh pit goin on every song i was right next to it it was nuts. great show :)

[likeasquid]

i was wandering whats the age limit to see DF cus im 15 and i really want to see them when they tour england

[chris4laura]

When we went, I think it was Under 14s needed to be accompanied by an adult - So any age really, there were a few kids kicking around.

[ThreeStarWolfie]

@chris4laura Yess! Next time they come by here I'm going! I just scrape by, being 14 myself.

[jordanfadestoblack]

depends on what venue

i had 9 yr old kids infront of me

aint above 14 tho

so me nd u r k

[jani14jani]

it depends is it on club, usally club age limist are +18 becouse of alcohol but if its outside i think that all aged are alowed

[IamTheLandolfo]

depends on the club, like if they freely serve alcohol or something. both times ive seen em the age limit was like 13 and under need to have an adult

[NeedOfMusic]

dragonshit sucks!!

they really are a big shit... they don't know hows play the fucking guitar.

[chris4laura]

Moron much?

[bRUNOhOSTIL]

U're wrong, u guy.

This is the first time I see they playing so good in a concert...Let's consider this fact...

[chris4laura]

Yeah, you should watch more vids from 2008+ instead of 2006 Asspop.

[floydfan12345]

your a fucking shit head if you say that, dragonforce is awesome in studiop and live, in fact i know someone who saw them and they said that dragonforce beat disturbed live and thats saying something

[headbanger888]

Learn to speak proper English.

[HotActionProductions]

The dvd will not feature any of their shows in the Imperial City or Chorrol.

[UnholyCrusada]

A show at Cloud Ruler Temple would kick ass though. :D

[bonfirejovi]

how old are these guys?

[13ChrisCore37]

thx for sharing!

awesome concert i saw them in vienna fucking awesome!

best song eva ^_^

[JoekChannel]

Zp sounds older than he did when they made ultra beatdown. but who cares? THIS FREAKIN PWNS!!!!! BTW, what does Zp stand for?

[DemonFalux]

ZP stands for nothing. It actually says ZP on his birth certificate.

[v5vendeta]

Confirmed. His nickname is Zippy

[0verlord1841]

how you pronounce his surname

[diamond1hammer]

Theert, I believe.

[mav6771]

how do you know? did you SEE his birth certificate?

[IamTheLandolfo]

Funny thing is, he's 35 years old and still has a voice like that. just epic :)

[elk832]

Holy shit - I didn't realize how much of the solo Herman plays. God Hands.

[elk832]

He's a singer - what else do you expect =]

[dragonheartx3ro]

Valley Of The Damned will always be the best album. well my favorite anyways not sure bout everyone else.

[mightymasochist]

hey chrissie yuo did great job posting this gig here. i managed to convince my friend who WAS note was a dragonforce hater. and i´m gonna see these guys again at ankkarock! twice in just half a year! man i just can´t get enough of them!

[turdlan]

lol warrior with cock in hand lol ZP

[SlimyMarmot]

ROFL never noticed that before... live creativity eh?

[gimpygibble]

LOL at 5:02 Sam is dancing around like a fuckin donkey lol

[Lovemetalforce]

Dragonforce is best band in the fucking world <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

[fabianz03]

how much did you paid to see them?

[PoopsNGigglez]

i think the only good ppl are zp theart, herman li, vadium, and sam.

[Haraio4]

So Fred and Dave aren't good enough for you? I think all the members are highly skilled and talented. Dave's my favourite, mainly because he's a funny guy. But I love them all :P

[Metalstrix]

Dave is small and awesome. hahaha.

[SerenadeBX]

That crazy scottish bastard eh? =P

[PilotOfNorway91]

166 CM according to his Myspace profile. :D

[Metalstrix]

haha i was looking down at him when i saw him xD.

[PilotOfNorway91]

Haha... :D I'm 197 cm so that's a big difference. XP

[guavacaffeine]

zp kinda annoys me, but they need him. i love vadim, herman, and dave

[foroke1]

how does zp annoy you?

[supermanakasean]

hes an asshole lol. trust me I've met the guy.

[foroke1]

lol

[LeonDXify]

do u knoe why u called them asshole??coz u're a moron..and u're much asshole than them, dragonforce's not an asshole, they're fuckin awesome!!

[supermanakasean]

dude, i called him an asshole because when i met the entire band, he kinda just blew fans off, and the rest of the band was awesome and pretending to be power rangers and stuff.

[Kistarcsa]

When I saw them live a month ago, they played this and I just couldn't enjoy it because of the intense mosh. I think everyone should have sang along, and mosh on another song, like Revolution Deathsquad for example.

[luwiboyet]

this band is a trying harD

[barraboy298]

is this dragonforces favourite song cause they play it at all the concerts

[luwiboyet]

live version sucks!!! ..

hahaaha they can't make a gud sound in live

band sucks

[DARKREGIS]

sounds great actually

[chris4laura]

Troll much?

Sod off back to your cave :)

[headbanger888]

Luw you must be deaf, dude.

[barraboy298]

dragonforce are the best in the world

this is also my favourite song from all the df albums

[fireninja242]

holy crap 6:26 is there anything dragonforce cant do

[12AustinJohnson12]

yeah, write decent material. this stuff is crap. sure they have talent. but they should use it writing better stuff and focussing on slowing stuff down. most the things they play that are fast, they can screw up and no one is gunna know the difference.

[chris4laura]

Oh yes darling, everyone should play slow music - That would be exciting. There's reasons they play fast - Because they want to, because they can, because it's awesome?

Read most of the hater comments - A lot involve when they screw up, clearly people notice.

If you don't like their style of music, then your loss I'm afraid... Stick to your slower stuff and be happy.

[12AustinJohnson12]

but if you watch, how does anyone know besides a wrong note? usually no one knows because the wrong note is most likely a solo using FX and they barely get it out..

[DARKREGIS]

Cause their not posers they do things there own way XD

[12AustinJohnson12]

they can't be posers because they made their own genre.. and it's terrible. this is the only band i have ever heard that sucks purely from what they started..

[chris4laura]

LOL.

To hell with the X-Factor, YouTube is the home of the Troll-Factor.

[headbanger888]

You can't say something is terrible if so many people like it, fucktard.

[12AustinJohnson12]

well i did. get over it..xD

[headbanger888]

At least I'm not the one looking for videos of bands I don't like. You can go kill yourself now, you'll be doing the world a favor.

[12AustinJohnson12]

this video was sent to me from some Jani14Jani guy.. and he made a comment. as did i.

[jani14jani]

Herman was awsome even before Dragonforce check out Band demoniac(black metal) thats how sam and herman met

[12AustinJohnson12]

Herman is talented, i don't like how the band is together though. their music and lyrics suck.

[DARKREGIS]

haha I was looking for a vid of that :P awsome!

[barraboy298]

not really no

[25ThunderbirdIV25]

SAM! YOU LAZY F**K! Fred is using a microphone! GO BASS PLAYERS!!!

[barraboy298]

my favourite dragonforce song

[25ThunderbirdIV25]

Haha! Your first DF concert?

(All hands are raised)

OH DEAR GOD!

[chris4laura]

*Cringe*

I know, I was one of the proud few who held their hands down and looked around in disdain...

To be honest though, I would hope that most kept their hands up out of excitement or something... I hope. Ahwell, the more fans the merrier!

[PowerMetalBeast]

Take that DragonForce haters! They never sucked live and they never will! Maybe they should come out with a live album / dvd thingy, and put all the BS to rest once and for all. GO DRAGONFORCE!

[DespairsRox]

comign out with a dvd end of this year or beginning of next year

[Grasmaaier3]

UNICORN 4LIFE!!!

[starsonicy123]

[lazycrazybastard]

[Pieman3020]

[Diabolic845]

herman and sam got their signature guiatars, that why they sound better than usual.

[supermanakasean]

i wish it was possible for them to play body breakdown

[chris4laura]

They did when I first saw them :) Was awesome lol.

[Warr0th]

Somebody know the dates of their next tour ?

[Pieman3020]

[JamesLoadedSkate]

Lovage

Dragonforce for ever. Has to be one of their best songs.

I wanna see them play Starfire live.

[ko9to]

They pulled the solo quite well! DF in oslo 27th february twothousand and fkiiiin nine!

[13ChrisCore37]

this is their best song eva!

they were just awesome live!

[Jezberg]

Damn no ultra fcking beatdown can beat this no matter how epic they are, this is just their best song ever

[Haraio4]

"On the wings of death, by the hands of doom". Epic. Dragonforce wins ^_^

[DaFreshPrincessOfLa]

I can't stop watching this

[lazycrazybastard]

awesome. DF rock live and in studio take that haters I went to see them aswell. it was awesome

[spartanman2448]

hahahaa lmao zp "warrior with cock in hand" just like in ttaf "now here we stand with our cocks in our hands" haha =P

[DaFreshPrincessOfLa]

Ahhh I love this performance soo much!! It makes me want to go to every concert!!

[bassmastacj]

awesome song and band, and good video quality! almost saw them live at a different concert but they were sold out in the first 3 hours...

[rattlehead001]

LOL!!! @ 3:03 Herman kicks Sam in the ass.

[dragonslayer609]

awesome!!!

[PilotOfNorway91]

There will be forever only one song: Valley of The Damned! :) Their first, best song, hands down! DF Rocks!

[Jezberg]

I'm pretty sure Sam is so damn drunk

[chris4laura]

I was convinced he was still sober at this point - Afterwards I think he got wasted :P

[Metzger1979]

It`s the most perfect performance of it I`ve ever seen... and Herman`s Solo is just... insane!

[jani14jani]

go see 2009 shows on my prof (favourites) its amazing Herman actually plays his solo on Valley of the damned a bit faster!

[ShredLi01]

yeah...2009 is best years for dragonforce

[DespairsRox]

in the NY show he actually jumped in the crowd, WHILE PLAYING THE DAMN SOLO!

[beltrerocks]

lol 1 26 herman has an arguement

[ThotdFan127]

This sounds way better if you see it yourself.

[cchamp999]

Thanks for uploading Chris, now all the Dragonfroce haters can shut up when they see how awesome they perform live. But no recording can do them justice, the best thing to do is see them live! (Astoria 3rd Oct) :D

[lazycrazybastard]

they rock live i went to see this tour in birmingham it rockd

[TCJacko]

*bows down to this song, and this band*

[jani14jani]

*bows down to this song, and this band*

i do too

[scalo8]

I love DragonForce's first album, its the best imo. No Youtube video can handle their power so if you havn't seen them live stop slagging them off because they sound nothing like what you listen to! There soooo much better live its unreal : )

[jani14jani]

Yeah Valley of the Damned is defenetly their best album and it Gots Songs made of gods (Dragonforce) Valley of the damned...

Youtube videos cant make justice on their REAL live performance go and see... I wish only that they could come more often to finland

[rene1OOO3]

i say sonic firestorm is their best, but that's just me. :)

[CptFoxMcCloud]

My first song that got me addicted to Dragonforce, oh sweet memories, thanks Chris for uploading this, sounds just like off the soundtrack. I love their new stuff too, did they play Last Journey Home from the new album?

[inlinesk8er144]

Yeah they are, check the info for the video it has the entire setlist.

[Dylan9435]

dude those people in the back singing need to be thrown in a moshpit or something they ruin it

[inlinesk8er144]

I'd rather be singing along rather than moshing, kkthnx. Sorry they couldn't make it to the front. So those in the front are excused from being in the pit, both those who can't get in the front aren't? You're sillly, sir.

[chris4laura]

+1

:)

[LilMeow3]

Dumb fucks singing -.- in the back

[WeeblBull]

XD - what? nobody came back? XD

why wouldnt they come back? theyre awesomest live - them and firewind XD

[Madkat0701]

outro solo = boner

[Kooma0612]

They failed to guitar intro so bad... ;S

[chris4laura]

How so? It was great :D Remember the video doesn't do the performance as much justice as being there in the flesh! It was womderful :D

[jani14jani]

NO they didint i sounded better than in studio live shows arent meant for playing exatcly same as in studio...

[jani14jani]

Oh i almost forgot every time u wacht this video rate it to 5 stars

[jani14jani]

This is my favourite Dragonforce song. I know that i already have told it to you million times. i could listen this song 24h in day ^^

[chris4laura]

It is an amazing song :)

[Fissionftw]

Only bad thing I have to say about this is how unepic the massive "through the niiiight" is at 6:30 or so. In the album it is truly 150% epic awesome of sweetness.

[Fissionftw]

4:02 My favorite part of this song :D

[Fissionftw]

Oh fucking finally; a haven away from DF haters.  I may make your channel my homepage.

[demolaharl]

I love Dragonforce live. Yeah, they are better live than studio! :D I like the part when they play on each others frets. you don't see other bands do that. :DDDDD

[jani14jani]

i agree with u Dragonforce is better live than in studio ^^

[chris4laura]

They're just a great band :D

Although in fairness other bands have played either others frets, but that was awesome though ;)

[jani14jani]

This is defenetly the best video on youtube :D

[rattlehead001]

My last comment was directed to Scorpino.

[theturkey]

Why is sam playing the solo different from time to time ;) ?

Haha , i just learned the easiest one on guitar ;)

[jani14jani]

Good job :D You must be good then my class mate told me that hardest part on Dragonforces solos are things called "sweep picks" ( I am not sarcastic here)

[theturkey]

Yeah , the sweep picking is difficult , i just tap it , haha :)

[chris4laura]

I assume he's mixing it up a bit :D Or is getting a touch drunk, whatever :P

[Sceptile89]

This  was really good Dragonforce can paly live.

[Scorpino123]

hey chris do you know if the setlist they played at your concert is the one there gona play at all the concerts?

[chris4laura]

Haven't a clue mate sorry :(

[Scorpino123]

i dont care really as long as i hear dragonforce preform i just checked my mail and my tickets where there IM SO EXCITED but i have to wait a couple weeks to go :(

[rattlehead001]

Most likely. The setlist in LA was the same as the one shown here but we also had "The Warrior Inside".

[chris4laura]

LOL! Just noticed at 1:31 ZP sings "In the Valley of the Damned, warrior with cock in hand" ROFL. Legends.

[beltrerocks]

HAHAHAHAHA lol hilarious i love this song. know i am gonna listen to reasons to live and see how they fared on that ultra intro

[jani14jani]

This is Dragonforces best song. if u dont agree tell me what dragonforce song is better than this but plz dont say "Trought the fire and the flames"

[chris4laura]

It has always been one of my favourites for sure :)

[axus111]

Where does ZP go for the first bit of singing?

Lol JKing, I know it's him.

[wattaaa]

Fuckin sweet concert man.

[jani14jani]

i am fucking jelous to everyone who i going to see Dragonforce live... i live in finland and they come only 2 times to finland on ultra beatdown tour and i cant get to either one but here is peace of knowledge Heroes of our time music video has been made in finalnd :DDD

[chris4laura]

Aww unlucky man :( Don't worry, they'll be back! I know that the vid was filmed in Finland ;) Another piece of good news is that Finland is where a hell of a lot of great metal comes from :D Feel proud!

[Scorpino123]

thanks chris for posting this concert ive never seen dragonforce live but im going to their show in chicago on december 8th and im very excited now they rock live dragonforce!

[chris4laura]

No problems Scorp :) You'll have an excellent night I'm sure, they've come a long way and are a far better live act :D

[chris4laura]

Hey Scorp, how did it go?

[Scorpino123]

it went fantastic they played so great and zp gave me a high five i am forsure going to their next chicago concert

[fadingxero]

i kind of wish that dragonforce would play one of their ballad songs (flame for freedom, dawn over a new world, valley of broken hearts ( or something like that) and i think starfire)...

[xbeastboyx1]

trail of broken hearts*

lol
