Out of curiosity, have any Dragonforce fans here ever listened to Hammerfall?LikeHaterade

I kind of like DragonForce. I've listened to Hammerfall. They're awesome, but Blind Guardian and Sonata Arctica are where it's at.

Kamelot will always, always, ALWAYS be the superior power metal band. They write meaningful, beautiful music while Dragonforce is just WINGS BATTLE GLORY FIRE DEATH FAR BEYOND THE FAR BEYOND FLAMES OF POWER

Don't really care about their live performances, what I dislike is the repetitiveness of their songs.

Meh, I just don't pay attention to them. I thnk its important for a band to know how to slow down instead of speeding up. Listening to their music makes me wanna do a few lines of coke and freak the **** out.

Metal concert atmosphere is terrible. Just a bunch of people throwing each other into a mosh pit, even though they don't want to be in a freaking mosh. jaydough
Odd... I've never been thrown into the pit, and I've been to a lot of metal concerts. :?

A lot of Dragonforce's music sounds almost the same. I got some from a friend and listened to the beginning of each one, and I couldn't really discern them. :?

Well actually, a friend of mine went to one of their concerts and said they weren't that bad. But frankly, I've been playign guitar for 3 months or so now, and looking at the tabs for Through The Fire And The Flames......those guys are not nearly as great technically as they're made out to be (mostly because of GH). Their playing in pretty much the simplest licks in the book, but at 300% speed. No technique whatsoever.

When Kamelot is pumping out beautiful music while Dragonforce writes some of the most generic music of all time, yeah.

Got anything to back that up? I mean no offense but your post doesn't really hold any weight if you don't have a reliable source BACKING UP what you said.

Meh, they are ok. I can tolerate them, but at only 1 song per week. But live they are horrible. The guitars seem quite off-tone and the singer's voice isn't that great at all.

They can never compare to the likes of Blind Guardian. BG can even play live! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYdd4fMtW_A

Power Metal is such a light hearted, fun, accessible genre of music, yet they find a way to make me hate them.

Seriously don't think I can name a single other Power Metal band I flat out hate.

if you want good power metal listen to iced earth and helloween, the keeper of the seven keys pt 1 is pretty much the classic power metal album and lolforce are heavy helloween copiers. this quote was used by kerry king to describe hair metal, but i think it can also work interchangably with dragonforce and helloween " its like turning up van halen 100 times... but in all the wrong directions"
