Noun. When you play quarter notes at a 250 tempo over a fast drum beat. Named after a shitty band known for using this technique to make them sound fast.
I can't think of a filler song for our new album so we might as well pull a dragonforce instead of being epic like Wintersun.

1. The most intense band in the history of man. Their music (if it can be called that, for it is truly much greater than mere "music") contains a power so great that it can consume one's soul.

The dragonforce is the sixth fundamental force in the universe. The force manifests itself where ever a kid hyped up on mountain dew needs a musical accompaniment to late-night online gaming. No one knows exactly from where the force originates, but it is speculated that some sort of temporal flux threw some excess energy from the 80s into the present time. The magnitude of the dragonforce equals the mass of a guitar string times the acceleration given to it by Herman Li’s guitar pick.
In order for humans to harness the dragonforce, they must go through several steps:
1. Lighten up about your music.
2. buy a CD
3. drink 2 red bulls
4. load WoW/NWN and enjoy.

Fucking kickass powerband from London. They are so fucking fast its amazing. They literally put the power in power metal. Nothing but pure kick your face in awesomeness. I cannot wait until they come into the states. You have to hear how fast they are. Their guitar work is unmatched in power metal and the drumming is the drumming of gods. Some may call their lyrics "cheesy" but it is better than you could ever do. Trust me you cannot match their skills in instruments. Don't believe me download "Soldiers of the Wasteland" That should change your mind.
Dragonforce literally owns power metal. No other power metal band can match up to their overall technical work and skills with the instruments. Forget Blind Guardian. This band owns power metal

Me - "Have you heard of Symphony X, Blind Guardian or Dark Moor?"
Moron who watches MTV - "Are they like DragonForce?"
Me - "Yeahh....except imagine competant song-writing, better themes, no whammy pedal, and sloppiness reduced by 100%".

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.

Me: Told you so.
