Ok, now I'm going to approach this from a different angle than most people who dislike DragonForce. Yes, I've heard many of their songs. I don't care about the lyrics (even if he does sound like a 12 year old) but hey, it works. People seem to worship this band because it has fast instrumentals, but people please! Every song I hear by them is EXACTLY same as the last song, they change about 5 damn notes and give it a different title. Yes, they can play the guitar, and very well, but it's all just repititive power metal which makes the whole metal genre look bad. If you want to hear a kick ass super fast guitar riff, go listen to Terror Train by Demons & Wizards.
On a side note, Blind Guardian kicks DragonForces ass. Sorry it's true.

DragonForce fan: "Man this is song is awesome"
*30 minutes pass
DragonForce fan: "Wait didn't I hear this 30 minutes ago? ...WTF is going on here!!!"
Me: Told you so.

A truely great power/speed metal band. people who don't respect them are usually the dumber (no offence) breed of metalheads. People who do respect them usually play instruments themselves or are metalheads with a true understanding and respect for music. Even if you don't like Dragonforce, you must respect Herman Li for his talent.
Dragonforce completely took the show at ozzfest and I think bands like Dragonforce, Sonata Arctica, and Cellador are the next step in metalution.

A flomboyant, but mariginally talented hair-metal band that attempts to disguise poorly written music with fast tempos. The guitar players are regarded as very good players, which is false. Their playing is characterized by modern day trickery drawing the attention from the actual playing, and meaningless to the actual sound such as wrapping the left hand over the back of the guitar neck. The singing is uninspired and lacks power. Anyone who likes Dragonforce is sadly shallow and un-informed when it comes to all things music and ass kicking.

Metal band with an infinite amount of potential, however, Due an unfortunate accident at the age of 8, the vocalist sounds like a little fag and this ruins the entire music. However, most people that are new to metal see their extremely talented guitarists and claim they are the best band ever, Even though there have been hundreds of guitarist that have outperformed them. These others, however, were not markeeted and commercialized as much as Fagonfor...excuse me.. DRAGONforce, thus all the newbies think they are the best.
"Hey dude, dragonforce has THE BEST GUITARIST EVER because that song is SOO hard to play on guitar hero!! XD"

Uses Accelerators to make them sound like they can play fast. They come to concerts drunk and forget words songs(if you dont believe me go on youtube). Also if you watch the music video for ttfaf you can tell he is not actually playing the amoount of notes that it sounds like he is. Also he needs to get off the effects pedal. And keyboard plays more of the song then guitar.

If you dont like dragonforce you must be one of those emo fags that needs to get a hard kick in their tiny balls and listen to some actual music.

A good but overrated power metal band. Usually overrated By Stupid American Teens.
They have great potential to achieving more if they got out of the "fast" power metal scene.
Though 2008 They Have IMPROVED their live Performances.

Example: They are so fast. Herman Li is the Best EVER!
Sam Totman : LOLWUT? I guess I'm not part of the Band.
Smart Dragonforce Fan : Alot of stuff is Similar, but still good and overrated. Thank you for that Guitar Hero.
