Purely for the popularity, I'm gonna have to say TTFAF is the anthem of DragonForce. This is 100% a better song but TTFAF is what most people think of when you say 'DragonForce'
Valley Of The Damned is my favorite song from them, I'm vastly impressed by how much the guitar solo sounds exactly like the studio version, completely clean, incredible performance.
Gustavo Araújo if you ever watch his twitch streams, he just casually plays these songs whilst smiling and looking at chat. He’s one of the happiest drummers I know, and hope he gets better soon🥁👍👍
Dragonforce is literally the coolest band in the year of our lord 2020. They have perfectly adapted to the changes that the online world has brought, while still continuing to play their signature music and stuff that they love. And not to mention the complexity that they are pulling off. Hermal Li is the coolest founder of a band every, and all the other guys, thank you for keep doing your thing!
I love how Marc sounds on this song, and the DragonForce signature backing vocals I don't think I ever noticed the bass in a DragonForce song as much as I do in this recording. I love how I can hear every instrument in this, though the guitars are a little low, but it's still nice to hear the other instuments
I personally don't like him at dragonforce. He seems like a nice guy and he can sing well, so I have nothing against him as a person. The previous and I guess the first singer's sound/ tone fits way better imo. The switch in singers is (in this case) a reason for me to not play automated dragonforce play lists.
I said it on another video, but in my opinion Marc's voice fits better with the band than anyone before. Coincidentally the first song I heard of theirs was not TTFAF it was Body Breakdown (same album, but I believe Body Breakdown was released before or at the same time as TTFAF) so I've been following the band for a long time and have heard all the different vocalists, and by far Marc is the one I feel is the right vocalist for Dragonforce. I'm glad he's stuck around since 2011.
Vadim was the best member of the band imo. The band doesn't have the energy without him. Still love them, but it's a shame he left. Underrated musician
@@aswadrhodes7661 actually, Vadim has chosen another type of life. He's a man of God now. He sometimes posts biblical quotes on his Facebook page. I was kinda surprised when I realized.
This strikes right at the heart ... you guys are literally the Gods of music. Unreal talent, amazing skills and the music just blows my mind. As a games developer, I was looking through tracks to get some inspiration for some action shooter development and listening to this I instantly know how I want the experience to be for our players. This really gets the blood pumping. Amazing. Never stop what you do. You guys are second to none.
Vocal harmonies from heaven Super fast and melodic solos Extreme drumming and Gee's smile Amazing synth job Great live Not DrunkForce anymore! What's not to love?
ON THE WINGS OF DEATH, BY THE HANDS OF DOOM, BY THE DARKEST LIGHT, FROM THE DARKEST MOON, CROSSING SILENT SEAS, OVER MOUNTAINS HIGH, FOR WE STAND AS ONE TONIGHT! ON THE WINGS OF LIFE, BY THE HANDS OF HOPE, BY THE BRIGHTEST LIGHT, FROM THE BRIGHTEST STAR, CROSSING SILENT SEAS, OVER MOUNTAINS HIGH, TO THE VALLEY OF THE DAMNED! Damn! That part gave me chills
DRAGONFORCE - MAGNIFICENT!! You put your ideas into words, shapes into your prints, colors into your feelings. Everything has relief, reality and life around it. Congratulations. I am Brazilian!
[Lyrics] if anyone want it On a cold dark winter night hidden by the stormy light A battle rages for the right for what will become In the valley of the damned a warrior with sword in hand Travels fast across the land for freedom he rides And the sign from the master on high screams aloud and across hear the cry For the kingdom of fire and ice and the power to be alive Be strong ride on, carry on through the war Come along carry on, living for ever more On the wings of death by the hands of doom By the darkest light from the darkest moon Crossing silent seas over mountains high For we stand as one tonight On the black wind forever we ride on together Destroying your evil with freedom our guide When the master will storm us He'll stand high before us Our hearts filled with splendour Our swords will shine over the light In the valley of the damned Days breaks with golden strand Over pastures green it glows To where night returns In the shadows faces appear Warriors wearing full metal gear All join together one and all Before the glorious light Rise up, gather around Come and hear what is said Use your senses open your mind Don't you ever forget On the wings of life, by the hands of hope By the brightest light from the brightest sun Crossing silent seas over mountains high To the valley of the damned On the black wind forever we ride on together Destroying your evil with freedom our guide When the master will storm us He'll stand high before us Our hearts filled with splendour Our swords will shine over the light On the black wind forever we ride on together Destroying your evil with freedom our guide When the master will storm us He'll stand high before us Our hearts filled with splendour Our swords will shine over the light The black wind forever we ride on together Destroying your evil with freedom our guide When the master will storm us He'll stand high before us Our hearts filled with splendour Our swords will shine over the light
I run 100 mile ultras for veteran suicide awareness and gotta say it's so totally epic running in the mountains alone at 2am, exhausted, 70 miles in, getting a runners high and solid effort with valley of the damned. 💪🤗
No comparison. ZP wasnt even hitting that high note on the studio album version, nor could he hit it consistently live. Marc is pound for pound the better live vocalist.
I feel like this band just amazes me over and over again. In cooking you always make sure you start with nothing but the best ingredients and this band is just like that. Everyone of them is just 10/10.
“This is Last One which is called “Vally of the Damned”.”. I think it’s good to bring this song to the end of their live performance, which can be called God.
Man, I would love to watch you guys play live again! Last time was very long ago back in 2017 along with Megadeth and other awesome bands. That was a great day!
I think my favorite part in this song is from 2;15 TO 2:25. That lead break is so unexpected and bright. The first note just hangs in the air, then Li sweeps a bunch of notes till he hits the octave then some solo stuff in the upper neck and finishes with that whammy bar pull at the end.
Realmente lo ame, adoro su música, se ve que realmente le ponen mucho amor a cada composición que hacen, los adoro una vez más ~ Una fan desde Colombia :3❤️
Yup also did you notice that in the Chorus and the Instrumental parts of the song it uses the same Chord Progression as Pachelbel’s Canon ? It’s a clash of two amazing eras of Music
I would love to hear a mashup between this and Sk8ter Boi and Basket Case and Don’t Look Back In Anger Because all of those songs use the same Chord Progression
Thanks for watching :)
Sure😉
no problem

Iya sir sama sama.. Terima kasih kembali.. Sudah memberikan yg terbaik..
Semoga sehat semua..
you know, the people who disliked this video are deaf, dumb and blind
2:33 the fact that Gee can absolutely crush this song with ease while still being able to do stick tricks shows what a master class drummer he is.
5:56 Damn, just damn... I have so much respect for that part to Marc.
The fact that he performed it live makes Marc great.

Easily one of, if not their best song
Everyone on the internet knows about through the fire and the flames though

Jakov Sosic he’s recovering from myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle.
yea true watch the operation live
Herman Li's OUTRO solo at the end though. Very melodious and epic solo. I come back to this video a lot of time to see the outro mostly
Same here. It gives me goosebumps
5:47 I always love this epic foursome plays part and they're be like "Avengers, assemble! We have to give our best acts on our closing!"
So funny how they all play each other's instruments. Power metal musicians have such great stage presence, I love it.
Ultra gay. It looks like they are fiddling their dingdongs in a circle

Something about that shot almost brought tears to my eyes
@@TheTrendkillerx lol
Japan metal concert crowds are so energetic and involved with the musicians that are performing.

@@Vincrand hahha no way dude this guys way better ;)
Hearing Marc nail those high notes brought a tear to my eye. Love that they play the older material, it’s some of my favorite.
I was literally just thinking that. It always does. I cant explain why, but i always have to take it back to about 5:30 and do it all again 🔥
And Herman's final solo
I said it on another video, but in my opinion Marc's voice fits better with the band than anyone before.

They always look so happy on stage. It's contagious.
It's the main reason I went to see them live! Good vibes all around.
I miss Vadim and his masterful use of keyboards so much, it was so beautiful seeing him there at the front with Herman during solo.
I miss Vadim too :(
I strongly think the new album would be much better if Vadim was involved because the keyboard have an important job in it :(
Vadim was the best member of the band imo. The band doesn't have the energy without him. Still love them, but it's a shame he left. Underrated musician

@Ivan Ledo shut up, your link doesn’t even work
Backup vocals are just amazing
This is my favorite DragonForce song and one of my favorite songs of all time.
One of the best bands to have ever existed on this planet.
AWESOME show! 👏🏻 the solos, vocals and performance was incredible. Don’t forget about the awesome Double bass drummer 🔥🔥
[Lyrics] if anyone want it
On a cold dark winter night hidden by the stormy light
A battle rages for the right for what will become
In the valley of the damned a warrior with sword in hand
Travels fast across the land for freedom he rides
And the sign from the master on high screams aloud and across hear the cry
For the kingdom of fire and ice and the power to be alive
Be strong ride on, carry on through the war
Come along carry on, living for ever more
On the wings of death by the hands of doom
By the darkest light from the darkest moon
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
For we stand as one tonight
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
In the valley of the damned
Days breaks with golden strand
Over pastures green it glows
To where night returns
In the shadows faces appear
Warriors wearing full metal gear
All join together one and all
Before the glorious light
Rise up, gather around
Come and hear what is said
Use your senses open your mind
Don't you ever forget
On the wings of life, by the hands of hope
By the brightest light from the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
To the valley of the damned
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
The black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
If... Lmao that's me, someone is saying something between guitars and drums beats

How about their backing vocal starting from 1:17 to 1:58 anyone know the backing vocal lyrics🤔

The vocals are absolutely perfect
one of my all time faves, at first, i didnt like Marc's singing when he first joined the band, but it grew on me, he did well on this song
@Cory Snyder totally agreed
@Cory Snyder at least he can actually sing live unlike zp who pretty much just talked through his song's
@@ruthiecorbyhenry I think live value is more important than just great in studio but crap on lives.
No comparison. ZP wasnt even hitting that high note on the studio album version, nor could he hit it consistently live. Marc is pound for pound the better live vocalist.
Cory Snyder ZP was terrible live. Although, he definitely has a much more unique sounding voice, in my opinion!
Congrats 1 Mil Subs, Dragonforce!!
Their energy. really give me a goosebumps!
This has got to be the hardest working band in the 2020’s . The musicianship is simple outstanding and so very entertaining.
This is such a perfect song to end a concert with.
I had been listening to the audio version of this performance for a few years and it is nice to see the video.
A lot of talent on that stage.
Wow what a voice
You cant just listen to Dragonforce song without mimicking the guitars sounds and chanting the song together✨✨
Stop exposing me!
Unless you listen to like kpop or some other trash
I can! o/
The Dapples W-we don’t do that here- wankandan with cat suit
well the twitchcon audience can do it lmao
Thank you guys
I can’t believe I’m just finding this band. I wish I had hair so I could headbang properly! Welcome back 1988…
Same
They are all dressed like rockstars apart from Herman Li who looks like he is at a job interview.
I think he's influenced by Dave Mustaine.
This actually sounds really good live.
I feel like this band just amazes me over and over again. In cooking you always make sure you start with nothing but the best ingredients and this band is just like that. Everyone of them is just 10/10.

Herman Li is a genius. Great band!!
Man, I would love to watch you guys play live again! Last time was very long ago back in 2017 along with Megadeth and other awesome bands. That was a great day!
3:22 top solos that make me cry for how epic they are
What a beautifull live performance ! This band is literallly Amazing !
I really really love you guys this is the best band i ever meet so exiting from the start to end..
Still here rocking and jamming to this lets go!!
I love how Fred goes up beside Sam and Herman during the solos, like "Yeah! I'm doing something too! Sorta..." Fred needs more love haha
I think my favorite part in this song is from 2;15 TO 2:25. That lead break is so unexpected and bright. The first note just hangs in the air, then Li sweeps a bunch of notes till he hits the octave then some solo stuff in the upper neck and finishes with that whammy bar pull at the end.
Holy shit, i don't think they've ever sounded better. And this is still their best track!
What a performance! \m/
Hearing this band constantly will give your dreams power
DragonForce é Sensacional uma das melhores bandas de Power Metal/Speed Metal que existe
Best lineup ever. I will forever cherish those days.
Marc is one of the best power metal singers of all time. He's perfect during live shows
Amazing!
2020 Still my favorite song! 🤘🎶🎸
Getting to see videos of live performances as amazing as this makes me unbelievably excited to see them live, can’t wait!!
Finally we get this amazing performance on RUclips again!
05:56 eargasm 😱😱
Damn, that note at 5:56. Pure epic-ness.
I literally think Herman and Sam wants to cry when they play this song, brings so many memories with ZP, you can almost see it at Hermans face at 1:55
How exaggerated you are. You speak as if ZP is dead. He just left the band, nobody cries about it. xD
They don't give a fuck about Zp. But it hurts that Frédéric left the band. 😭😭😭
fyi.... HERMAN AND SAM KICKED OUT ZP. LOL
@@grasshopper0274 No they didnt. He left by himself.
That high note from Marc is my favorite part of this performance 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
