Although I think their prime was in 2004 and the surrounding years, this was a great performance. Not ZP's best, but that's only because he had a tiny bit of range issues, nothing big. Dragonforce FTW!
Gotta admit, this is probably the best I've ever seen them play live. Maybe their newer guitars are just that much better at staying in tune or they're not buzzed, but either way, their act is definitely improving.
haters are just incest kids who needs attention but the difference is DF are world famous and travel the whole fucking world and the haters? they played guitar at home and in the basement for spiders and cardboard hahahahaha
@BrennanFace O.o accually they never did, the Inhuman rampage tour was just a horrible tour, XD nuff said! Check out their Fury of the storm 2005 video, its amazing. trust me. XD they just had a horrid tour.
Metal comes from the blues (like most of American music).
Fusion is the only genre to come from jazz. Obviously there are metal guys out there who incorporate jazz but the genre itself comes form blues and rock.
And let's be nice, especially if you don't know what you're talking about.
wonder how they added the trumpet in the chorus? with the keyboard? i mean...i don't see a live trumpet player in there and i don't really think they managed not to play faster live than on the studio version:). I mean, that's always the case, most bands including mine play their songs live a little faster. well...almost impossible with dragonforce songs i think, hehe.
They are amazing live. They truly are..saw them April 30th this year..truly spectacular. The only problem I'm finding now is Herman & Sam's guitar tone. It needs to be a little thicker u know? Stronger! Power Metal! It's ok though =P
i haven't seen a video of dragonforce live in a long time. but this performance is great. they didn't fuck the whole song up, like what they were doing at EVERY performance during 2006.
Sam changed the tremolo system on his Ibanez STM1 guitar. Looks like the Original Edge was installed. Great choice of trem. Edge III (stock trem on this model) was alright, but not good compared to Edge.
it's not coming out, it's just bullshit that these guys made, it's june 26 today and there are no news on it in any website page, it's impossible for it to come out suddenly.
miren zp el mejor herman el mas mejor sam groso vadim las mas hermosas melodias y batero genial sin equivocarse nunca. miren estos tipos tubieron un mal momento al ir hebrios a sus conciertos 2005/6 pero yo sabia que no me hiban a defraudar dragonforce el mejor . ahora suenan mejor los solos en vivo que en el maldito estudio
I'm gave this vid 1 star, not because of the actual content, as Dragonforce are awesome, but for the fact that this live dvd is not happening yet, this guy is not a member of Dragonforce, all of his videos coincidently showed up after someone else put them on youtube, he stole this video and all of his others. Just think, why would Dragonforce put this news on youtube before their website? I hope Dragonforce release a live DVD soon, but these videos are not real.
I agree. Fred himself even said in an interview, and I quote:
"We'll definitely issue a live DVD, but we'll take our time so that we can compile something interesting. We don't rush the process, and issue a fucking Youtube quality DVD". This quality is good, but a live DVD must be powerful and explosive. Plus, putting this out immediately after ending their world tour would be a rush job IMO.
P.S. Anyone else notice that the writing on the screen showing the venue, date, and song title are the exact same style as on the Japanese pro-shot vids of "Storming the Burning Fields" and "TTFAF" in 2006? Those vids, like these ones, were released on japanese TV only. If this is really Dragonforce's Youtube channel, then how about you respond to us and prove this is from the DVD!
They are gonna make a DVD eventually, but not now. Their probably searching through their recorded performances now, trying to decide which ones have the best quality.
Why does this sound so different then normal? I mean Zp's voice sounds deeper and the sound isn't as good as I've seen in heir recent live I know they can play it there no doubting it but the sound quality is something that should be fixed before the release :( this is constructive criticism so don;t take any offense please
I usually find live versions to sound like they're lower quality. Probably because to need to filter out things like the fans making too much noise, the volume from the speakers, and various feedback. Really, Only live RECORDING I can't think of off the top of my head that sounded better then the studio is Hendrix at Woodstock.
But I'm sure they'll figure something out when they release the DVD, they do have high quality sounding albums.
This performance was in my opinion perfect, also my favorite song though :-)

power metal like most scandinavian metal is a branch off neo classical and classical is its main influence.
thats why it uses classical components and rarely uses blues techniques.
