Following up from the oversized success of their first Australian tour in 2006, UK act DragonForce are heading down under in May for a second time due to popular demand.
No joke!
DragonForce proclaim to have single-handedly revitalised the genre of power metal in their homeland, and now the world is falling on the band’s sword. In a field regarded as little more than a joke and fraught with imposters and poseurs the six-piece have brought credibility – and brutal force!
Combining the primal force of power metal with hard-earned musical proficiency, old-school thrash and generous quantities of muscular melody in a unique style that they call ‘extreme power metal’, DragonForce have established themselves as one of the biggest heavy metal band of recent years. Their new album, Inhuman Rampage, is arguably the best yet.
SCORPION ENTERTAINMENT & MYSPACE.COM proudly presents DragonForce this May with special guest Vanishing Point. Tickets on sale February 23.
