How many guitar solo´s do you want?
Dragonforce: YES!
Always the same jokes
*All of them
Guess what? This isn't even the full version, it's a single-edit. The actual solo is even longer.
The drummer ran a full damn marathon
By now that drummer's shins are made out of diamonds, given how much of a workout they get.
For a real drummer marathon watch Powerglove - under the sea... fun fact also featuring Marc Hudson from Dragonforce
Aye, and the support guitar, the one on the keyboard and the bass. They had the background so the others could shine.
The "boss level" song in Guitar Hero on the PS2 :D Also Sam and Herman collaborated with Babymetal for their song "Road of Resistance" ;)
Don't forget The Devil Went Down to Georgia tho 😅😂
Guitar Hero is where I know the song from.
Ah yes, possibly the most well-known power metal song of all time. Also as I understand it Herman Li is such a god that there was actually a discussion about whether or not he was actually playing or if it was digital. What absolute legends.
Lol I remember a lot of people were saying the video was sped up back in the day.
The two guitarists (Sam and Herman), have know each other since 1999. Check out their first band Demoniac. These guys must have just simply grown this good together.
Sauce please
First time I've seen anyone else mention Demoniac.
A big shout out to the drummer. He just hammered it
100%
Yay! I love Dragonforce. Herman Li has a live stream every Wednesday (and Sam Totman is often there) and it's always a blast! Please come join us sometime! Amazing guitar playing, amazing band! Thanks for the great reaction video.
Herman Li has a live stream from monday to friday on Twitch
I'll join 😊👌
@@eugenefokin8941 Yes, although I prefer RUclips as I find Twitch is glitchy for me.😋
Herman Li streams from 9pm GMT monday-Friday and has a special guest (usually Sam Totman) on Wednesdays
Party guy: plays wonder wall
Herman or Sam: Hold my beer
*auditory decimation occurs*
😂🤘
Hah! Herman "The Guitar Dragon" Li. Well not all their members are British. The lead singer in this video is their former vocalist, ZP Theart (now with Skid Row) is South African. Their new drummer Gee Anzalone is Italian. They have new vocalist now, and yes, he's English. Valley of the Damned is my all-time fave from them.
They also have a Canadian guy called Stevie T playing the triangle, correct me if I'm wrong :D :D
@@fegyi001 nah that guy chickened out never played on the stage with them
Theart was born in Britain, but grew up in South Africa. Herman was born in Hong Kong.
@@juliettemcgee9055 He didn't "chicken out". 🤦 He has severe anxiety, so he could not tour with them. But he is in one of their videos.
Their bassist from 2005 to 2019 and their drummer from 1999 to 2003 were french
Saw this guys live once and yes,it is insane. I'm not a fan of the voice style, but the instrumental side totally makes up for it, they really go wild live with improvisation and competition like you called it. Pretty sure Herman came out of his mum with a guitar on his hands
i like their new singer's voice more tbh
I forgot how neutered the official video is. Lots of stuff missing from the actual track. Still good though! Fun reaction.
When even the pianist is headbanging the entire time, you got yourself one hell of a band folks! 😂😍❤
fun fact: At the end of the song when you hear the high pitched squeal that was herman li lifting the guitar by the string ( same as start of the song) and the string broke so they decided to keep it in the song
😂😂🤘
FLoyd Rose Vibrato- not the Strings
Bzzt wrong. He lifts it by specially reinforced whammy bar.
It makes me sad that no one reacts to the full version, no video but it's twice as impressive.
*sad dragonforce noises*
Herman Li is a God!!! And a wicked down to earth and funny guy. Sam Totman is great as well. Don't mean to leave him out!
He didn't lift the guitar on a string it was the whammy bar
Yeah...he took a page from Dimebags book. Dimebag would do that as well. Check the "Domination" video from the "Monsters of Rock Moscow" For a good view.
Herman Li, the guitarist with the white shirt on, actually does regular streams on Twitch. He and one or two other band members have been working on their next album live on stream.
That's a great idea. I have to check the channel out 😎👌👍
He was holding the whammy bar at 2:50 to make it look like the guitar floated.
Pure insanity describes it perfectly. I have used this song as a boss battle song in my dungeons and dragons campaign.
😂😂😂 Your face during those guitar riffs was PRICELESS! Lol
😂👍
"A battle, like a hip-hop battle, but with guitar players"
There's actually an official name for it: "Rock Off"
That drummer deserves a freaking raise.
“IS THAT WIERD AL YANKOVIC?!” Lol!!
😂😂😂🤘
Imagine if Wierd Al as a proxy vocals..lol
It’s the ex-singer ZP Theart.
DragonForce: Retro video games influenced, technicalities, fantasy-themed lyrics, crazy long and fast guitar solos.
Perfect summary 😂🤘🤘🤘
@@PowerfulReactions Anyway, you should react to their song called Blackfire. it has an easter eggs, when the solos kicking, it has the Double Dragon game (NES version) theme song in it. but overall that song was very good, you should try it.
😎👍🤘
@Crasy monk3y nope, Blackfire is from Valley In The Damned album but a remastered version of the song.
The full song is around 8 minutes, they shortened it in the video. If you watch their live performances, you’ll see the full song. Also, you should react to JUNNA’s drum cover of this song. She is insanely good.
This is awsome. Nice.
I always think that nothing can shock me... challenge accepted!
Dream Theater - Instrumedley
Dream Theater - Change of Seasons
Arch Echo - any song. They are all crazy
Animals as Leaders - Cafo (or basically anything from them)
Steve Vai - For the Love of the god live with the Holland Metropole Orchestra, 2005
Bonus: Psychosalad by The Homeschool Dropouts
Being impressed before the first solo even starts...my sweet summer child
"he starts shredding and people die instantly" xD
Lovebites have TOURED with them, but they cited their main influences as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Metallica.
You have to see them live. Imagine every metal-head fake-playing air-guitar at a metalfestival when this band is playing. It is amazing!!🙌👌😁
Dragonforce was involved with Babymetal. They wrote their song Road of Resistance and more. They have also performed live together.
Herman didn’t pick the guitar up by the strings, he has a whammy bar that can go up. He holds it up.
All whammy bars can go the opposite way. It's just not very safe to do it the way Herman did. He said that it broke multiple times during recording for the video and album track while trying to do what he did there.
"Hold my beer"... La nueva frase del día.
Dargonforce's two guitarists, Herman Li, and Sam Totman are absolute legends.
They make songs difficult as hell, just to torture the rest of us with their amazing skills.
And it's nice that Weird is still well known :D
Right? 😂
@@PowerfulReactions yeah, the covers from Jacko are a classic but i fear that they can't survive the "politically correct" wave that hit us right now :( but thanks to you i want to watch them again after so many years :D i still remember them on MTV of that time :D
I love how with this song it's like "wow...that guitar solo is face melting".....and then the solo starts 🤣😂🤣
Agreed, that’s insane
You wasn't ready lol :D
This song is not only the final boss on the guitar hero, is the final boss in the life!!! Is insane!!!
Dragonforce - the definite band for guitar speed shredding!!!
While the guitar gets most of the love in this song (and rightfully so), props to the drummer because he really puts on an insane performance that just gets overshadowed.
How do you not know this song? I think every human being knows this song also if they don't actively listen to this band or metal in general. It's so iconic...
I never played guitar hero hahaha
If you've mentioned "that guy who plays wonderwall at parties" You should check Marcin Patrzałek, and think about that analogy with him, he is hands down the most impressive acoustic guitar player in the world, he makes every wonderwall guy look like triangle player xD
Please react to Fury of the Storm by Dragonforce live in Japan. Its with their newer singer and it's insane seeing this stuff live. You will lose your mind!
More Dragonforce reactions . If you want to react to their fastest song try The Game . It's 240 BPM ( beats per minute . ) Just wanna warn you there . Lol . It also has the new singer and drummer in that video so it would be good to compared and see who you like better in the band . They're both awesome and filled with talent . But I do prefer the original ZP Theart ( the one in through the fire and flames vid ) he's definitely one of a kind . But Marc also does bring a different range to the table as well. React to their epic song Edge of the World . It's their longest song and I promise it's not boring at all. It's worth it . Hint: he puts a little bit of death metal into the mix too. And makes it sound awesome with that and his high pitch vocals . Hope you react to these 2 . Some songs I'd recommend to react to for the original singer are Operation Ground and Pound and Storming the Burning Fields. Or Soldiers of the Wasteland as well .
Completely agree 👍 I stoped listening to them when Theart left! Nothing wrong with Marc but he’s no ZP Theart like come on!! Saw them live a good few years ago and as a front man he carried that band through a rough crowd, by the end of the gig he was a hero. Tryed to get into I am I but just wasn’t the same! ps this is on my cycling up hills song. Power metal at its finest 🤘🤘🤘
I'd be interested in seeing you do a video on Junna, a young female drummer, who not only covers this song, but also Doki Doki Morning by Babymetal.
That scenario of the party is exactly what I wanted to do lol. I was learning this solo as a party trick when the wonderwall dude would do his bullshit and I'd pull out this solo, but man this solo is too hard that I gave up guitar.
Angus McFife originally auditioned for Dragonforce when Z.P left, but wasn't accepted because he wasn't based in Britain. Which was good for us since we got both Dragonforce, Gloryhammer and now his new band. Video is 'bad' because it's from 2005, when all of us still had 12 inch crt monitors. Looked VERY crisp on those lol
Hello Powerful Reactions. I love DragonForce, thank you for the react. But just let me do a little correction, wasn't DragonForce who created Power Metal, it is a style very old, in fact who created it was Helloween, for what i know, but remembering that Helloween born influenced by Iron Maiden, who passed to have Power Metal songs in their playlist with time, still seems that Helloween was the first band who appeared with that type of song. Thank you, greetings from Brazil.
2:36 he actually held onto the guitar with the Whammy Bar not the string, as they would definitely snap doing that.
You gotta watch Junna covering the drum section of this song. You will be amazed!
Can you imagine the guitar solo played while being underwater? Well, think again lol check for Herman's impossible solo underwater 😂
you need to listen to Valley of the Damned, it was Dragonforce's first song, also Highway to Oblivion, is from their most recent album and is awesome
Your hair must be god-tier to play like this
I was that Wonderwall guy 🤪😂
Herman Li is a beast on guitar, want some more fast stuff ? FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - The Violation (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)
ruclips.net/video/xjKyzwqIT7s/видео.html
or maybe 19y old Tina S Ludwig van Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata ( 3rd Movement ) Tina S Cover
ruclips.net/video/o6rBK0BqL2w/видео.html
you should def check out TinaS doing the cover of this to see close up whats involved with the fret work
And her Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement 😃
They are the epitome of power metal, and all are amazing, the drummer kills it, going crazy the whole time and really drives the song, the vocals, style and how good, pure power metal, and soaring vocals. Of course the guitars, over the top awesome. If I could rename the genera they do, it’d be turbo metal, they left power a few stages back.
If you haven't reacted to Beast in Black, you need to.
One of the best voices in the... Universe! 😎
Impossible not to love Herman Li
I also thought the lead singer is Weird Al as he sounds just like him. It's not him but I wished that Weird Al does a parody of this like running a marathon&doing a hair product commercial.
Herman li and Sam Totman actually formed the band 1999
They came about after my official metal day's in the 90's so I didn't cash them outside. I'm glad I know about them now. I like all types of metal genres, don't get me wrong but I like Megadeth sounding groups.
insert obliged " this was an advert for shampoo " here . Also look at Junna's drumcover of this song.
And I thought Nightwish had a lot of hair! 🤣
😂👌
This video is a cut of the original song. The full version of this song is about 7 minutes long and the guitar solo is much longer than they showed here. Their other songs are just as insane as this one but this song is the most famous.
I cant believe there are still folks around that never heard this song :D
Steve Vai - Building the Church Live in Minneapolis.
Hirnfrost. Ging mir auch so. Was für geile Typen.
Fabio Lione does look a lot like Weird Al, I thought I was the only one that noticed it. Fabio also picked up the vocals for Angra after Andre Matos left the band. Which reminds me. Please react to:
*Shaman - Fairy Tale (live version)*
this song is one of my favorite, but the best one is : Dragon Force - Seasons (acoustic version)
I know it sense weird but the contrast with all their songs is just insane.
Nice reaction. It`s a short version btw. You` should also check the normal one in your spare time ;) cheers
Hey brother. Just letting you know, a country music legend passed away yesterday: Mr. Charlie Daniels. I would humbly request you react to The Devil Went Down To Georgia.
And if you can't tell, DragonForce is one of the influences of Unleash the Archers -- see Abyss and Awakening. And on the actual song (not this video, the studio version), the two guitar solos are epically ridiculous, haha.
Awesome reaction, nonetheless! Lol 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥
I'll see what I can do.
Thanks for informing me. 👌
@@PowerfulReactions Not a problem, brother! 🙂
If I remember correctly DragonForce was originally made by the guitar players so that's why the guitar playing is amazing and the main focus
if you listen to this song and not have the urge to run full speed through the nearest wall like the Kool aid man there is something wrong with you.
''Heroes of our time'', ''Operation Ground & Pound'', ''Last Journey Home''... I Could Go On........
Unleash the Archers - Awakening, Helloween - Keeper of the seven keys
That second guitar player also wrote the song...
If you're looking for Weird Al vibe in metal you need to check out Nanowar of Steel. Comedy gold!
Not to mention, you say they've been going 21 years, but none of them look old enough.
most people who react to this song think that the solo is at that speed that they play, but it's just something visual from the video, live is much simpler, and for a medium level guitarist it is even possible to learn the solo
Gotta check out Manowar. Battle Hymn, live.
Funny you should mention LoveBites. Dragonforce actually mentioned that they were jealous of the songwriting LoveBites has, let alone their tone and virtuosity! If you want to hear them playing together (LoveBites double billed with them on a UK tour after LoveBites played a main stage at Wacken), there is a video of them together playing Farm Simulator. And yes, Midori and Miyako outplayed Herman and Sam!
Miyako and Midori could easily replace them if they could not play for some reason. They're my favourite guitar duo.
@@ChrisPage68 I wouldn't. Dragonforce would be too easy for them, plus they could also replace the keyboardist. What Midori and Miyako could easily do is replace Leda, Ohmura, Isao, or anyone else as Kamis for Babymetal.
I cant listen to this song sitting down. I started pushing into my chair and grabbing the arm rests on the verge of ripping them off.
Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen
If DragonForce had a child with Nightwish that they left in Japan and let it grow up there that child would be the band Unlucky Morpheus.
Fun fact this song almost wasn't released by the band but Herman li let his dog choose one of 3 different songs and according to Herman his dog was more energetic when this song was playing so he went with it lol
Lol I never put 2 and 2 together about the singer looking like weird al. Love this song. Fuckin insane musicians all of them. Absolutely the best.
You have to watch them live! :)
In my opinion its really hard to miss the vocals and drums sometimes the keyboard seems to get drowned out admittedly but without all that the guitars would seem like random notes but the drums vocals and keys all help the crazy pace of the song but i kinda see what youre saying though not really a lot of emphasis on the lead vocals or drums which is surprising because most lead vocalists seem to have a large ego or something and most shots are of them lol
Well, "to Dragonforce" as the verb means "to do something out of this world", and they totally deserved it) I often hear that they cannot pull it off on a concert, but I can speak only for myself, and I've been to their show in Moscow, and they did not miss a single note. They are awesome! (I like their old singer better than the current one thou). And they have a keyboardist Vadim (my namesake), and in Moscow he was talking to the audience in Russian, that was really nice ;) And Herman Li is a machine of a guitar, yes.
I also like their song "Heroes of Our Time".
And after Dragonforce you HAVE TO see Unleash The Archers -- Awakening (full band playthrough) [ ruclips.net/video/gqUPGa15Oto/видео.html ]!
How can you be a "music guy" and not have ever heard Dragon Force?
Crazy.... I know.
ZP Theart sings for Skid Row since a couple of years. :)
If i could fly - Joe Satriani - Cover by YOYO
Is there any Dragonforce song without "far away" in the lyrics? 😂
You gotta listen to the album version of this song. It's longer and more epic. Better to listen. Video is too distracting.
There's a whole world of metal out there to explore. If you check out Myrath - Believer, it has some arabic vibes that work suprisingly well with metal :)
I wanna hear "Through The Fire and Flames Polka"
