This is not the final boss battle. That's "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". Through the Fire and Flames was the hardest song that came with the base game (no DLC songs)
@@uncle_thulhu it's been a LONG time since I played GH3, but IIRC there were 3 boss battles in the game -- Slash, Tom Morello, and the Devil. Obviously, the final battle had to be The Devil Went Down to Georgia 😂 Through the Fire and Flames was the harder song for sure, but I think it only unlocked as a bonus track once you had cleared the solo campaign
Herman Li and Sam Totman are awesome 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸 Listen to Tina S's cover. She kills it ZP Theart was also the vocalist for Skid Row after leaving Dragon Force
1) This is the kind of music you fight dragons to. 2) It was so cute at the first pause when you said how fast they were and I just thought "Sweet summer child, you haven't seen anything yet" 😁
Saw these guys live in Seattle. The floor of the stage had grates with fans blowing up so that all of their hair was flying around. The back drop was stars zipping by, like Star Wars when the hit warp speed. Killer performance. Epic 😅
Watched them live and it isn't that fast. You can often hear them having a backing tack playing that is that fast, very different sound to what their instruments are actually playing thou. They got into big trouble over it.
The drumming is also on the next level. You now MUST watch Tina S covering it, then Herman Li (Dragonforce guitarist) reaction to the cover. and if you want to complete the experience - Watch Junna doing the Drums cover and then Gee (Dragonforce drummer) reacting to the cover. Then you need a week rest ! :)
Fun fact; at about 6:46 in your vid here, when Lee does the Mario power-up sorta noise on his guitar right before he starts his solo, he broke his whammy bar off of his guitar; you can see it flying back behind him as his solo starts XD
Why would he take the time to unscrew and fling the whammy bar when he needed to make the sound again later? Also it sounds more like a Mario power-up to me than Pac Man, but either works fine I suppose. Not saying you're wrong (I don't know the guy or anything), but those are just the things I've heard. Either way it's funny to see it flying off behind him.
now you are ready to listen tina S cover of this gem and you just have to know that herman li lead guitarist of dragon force was impressed by her cover
The band saw a video of Mia Asano (electric violin) and Ally the Piper (bagpipes) playong this song, and absolutely KILLING it. They immediately extended an invite to both artists to join them onstage for a few performances. You'll love seeing the ladies shred this on electric violin and bagpipes!!
Their older stuff is more meme-ish nowadays but their songs are actually pretty good. Heroes of Our Time is probably their best song imo, you should check it out, I haven't seen too many people listen to it
You should watch Tina S playing this!! Even Herman Li was blown away watching it and at one point said she played it better. Then watch her cover Moonlight Sonata.
Not even close 🤭🤣 people mistake guitar hero difficulty for actual difficulty. Is the song technical absolutely. Is it difficult, a little. But it's nowhere near the most "complex" lol.
There is a longer version you should of listened to to fully appreciate this track. This was my first exposure to Herman Li & Sam Totman, DragonForce and this type of Metal in general. Both Tina S & TheDooo have covered this that you should also check out :)
I don't think ive ever seen someone so turned on by someone playing the guitar 😂 your reactions are amazing! I remember this on GH3 oh the good ol days, I feel so old now... lol
I play this every know and then to keep my guitar chops up. It’s 200bpm but other than that it’s just the key of C in minor modes. It’s fun to play around with. Nice reaction 🤘
@10:50 Yes, MAJOR D&D vibe, because Powermetal as a genre has a heavy fantasy emphasis. A lot of songs focus on going to war against evil, of victory, and the indomidable human spirit.
I don't usually listen to such twiddly music, I usually prefer unga bunga caveman riffs, or atmospheric emotional riffs, but I am always impressed when I see this video.
i discovered these guys and this song through Guitar hero on the xbox, also probably what made me a metal head to this day, was more into rock before, this song of cause was the end boss of the game so even on easy mode was hard to play.
Everybody and their mom have reacted to this song. Off the top of my head, I recommend Ashes of the Dawn and Three Hammers. These both have videos you can watch, and the singing is top-notch.
You GOT to check out Tina S' cover. She was 15 when she made that, and made Herman Li's (main guitarist of DF) jaw drop. Several times. He himself made a reaction vid to Tina S. You HAVE to check both the Tina S cover AND Herman's reaction video. Or well... He streamed it live on Twitch and uploaded to the tube later.. A bit like you do 😀
This is a 7+min song and for some reason the uploaded the edited version. They have a full video that was played on Kerrang and Skuzz at the time but they won't upload the full version to RUclips for some reason!
You will have a lot of requests to watch the cover of this song by the young french female guitarist prodigy Tina S. (she was something like 15 years old when doing it). What could be fun and original, is to react to the video of Herman Li (lead guitarist of Dragon Force) reacting to Tina's cover. You will have a few interisting informations from the composer itself, could be cool 🤘 (I don't think this has already been made by a reactor)
I love this song and the full length is almost 8 mins long. You should look up and react to the Guitar Hero 3 Expert gameplay of this song. As a basshead I’ve always wanted to learn to play this song and I will one day
Z.P. Theart (vocals) was the original singer for Dragonforce since their inception in the 90's... he recorded their first 4 studio albums (From 'Valley of the Damned' in 2003... to 'Ultra Beatdown' in 2008) ... Theart was apparently fired in 2010 after the release of their live album 'Twilight dementia' ... Dragonforce is essentially guitarists Sam Totman & Herman Li... Others come & go. Still, Z.P. Theart is still the voice on the biggest-selling Dragonforce albums. Marc Hudson (vocals) was announced as the Dragonforce singer in 2012 on the album 'The Power within'... and has done all their albums since.
hi ray, I'm following you from Italy. I enjoy watching your reactions to songs. among other things many of some of my favorite artists. I recommend Dream Theater, my favorite band ever. maybe it starts with “ pull me under ” or “another day.” thanks and greetings from Italy.
Saw these guys at 9:30 Club in DC...I don't know how many years back. Easily the most fun band I've ever seen live... Also: If his past history is any indication, there is a non-zero chance that guitarist Herman Li will react to your reaction on Tiktok..
And this was the short version lol
hola
lol for real
yup...the full version has about 2 extra minutes!
Fancy seeing you here Sir Vegas!
@@Old_Instinct ✌️
nobody ever shows the drummer love. bro was on fire the entire time!
The legend is, that drummers can only play this song once and then they are taken to Valhalla!
And flames
Calves of steel❤️🔥🤘🏽
Drummer is practically sprinting for the entire song. Absolute legend.
They used a drum machine in the studio. The drummer in the video is just a prop😅
There's a reason this is the final boss battle (as it were) on Guitar Hero 3.
This is not the final boss battle. That's "The Devil Went Down to Georgia".
Through the Fire and Flames was the hardest song that came with the base game (no DLC songs)
@@Mjandro Really? But surely Fire and Flames is the more challenging song, even vs the Primus version of Devil Went Down?
@@uncle_thulhu it's been a LONG time since I played GH3, but IIRC there were 3 boss battles in the game -- Slash, Tom Morello, and the Devil. Obviously, the final battle had to be The Devil Went Down to Georgia 😂
Through the Fire and Flames was the harder song for sure, but I think it only unlocked as a bonus track once you had cleared the solo campaign
@@uncle_thulhu devil went down to georgia was absurd compared to ttfaf, that song haunted me.
@@uncle_thulhu it's a bonus song
What an amazing Shampoo commercial
😂😂😂
ROTFLMFAO
😂😂😂😂😂
wow such an original joke.... this has NEEEEEEEVER been done before (i hope i made the sarcasm show)
@@whirledpeaz5758WTH this mean Bro?! 😂
"I feel like I've walked to Mordor and back"... such a perfect comment! Always a great reaction and a great channel, RAY!
The drummer may have actually made about that in mileage 😂😂
Gotta love the fact that it opens up like it's about to be this crazy hard death metal track and then BOOM.....power ballad.
Power Metal, a genre of legendary fantasy and vocals
"I feel like I've walked to Mordor and back." LOL! You sure have a way with words, lady. 🤣
Herman Li and Sam Totman are awesome 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸
Listen to Tina S's cover. She kills it
ZP Theart was also the vocalist for Skid Row after leaving Dragon Force
Yes! Please! Tina S' cover is INCREDIBLE!
Herman, Sam and Jason Richardson doing a guitar track with Tim and Scott from Polyphia would destroy this planet
@@dethincarnate1149 Now I would love to hear that 🤘🏻🤘🏻
React to Herman Li, reacting to Tina S' cover of this. It's basically the same thing, but better ;)
Tina S is a fake
1) This is the kind of music you fight dragons to.
2) It was so cute at the first pause when you said how fast they were and I just thought "Sweet summer child, you haven't seen anything yet" 😁
Saw these guys live in Seattle. The floor of the stage had grates with fans blowing up so that all of their hair was flying around. The back drop was stars zipping by, like Star Wars when the hit warp speed. Killer performance. Epic 😅
Warp Speed is Star Trek, come on man.
“I walked to Mordor and back at the speed of light” is an incredible way to describe DragonForce!!
“I feel like I walked to Mordor and back” is the perfect way to describe listening to this song😂
And the full version is 2 minutes longer.
Tina S. - Through the Fire and Flames (cover). Shell blow your mind. She plays the full version.
There you can also see the ultra fast movement of her right hand that really reminds me of the Flash when he moves through walls 😄😄
The best
She doesn’t just play the full version.
She plays BOTH Herman’s AND Sam’s guitar parts…
This was a song written for TWO guitarists….
this is a must please watch a 15 yr old shred!!!!!!
AND watch Herman Li react to Tina S! :D
My brain melted the first time i heard this, and still does every time i hear it again
If you watch this one LIVE, which I highly recommentd, it's still this fast. These guys are EPIC
Agreed. I saw them live on their tour with Amaranthe in Oslo, Norway in early spring.
Watched them live and it isn't that fast. You can often hear them having a backing tack playing that is that fast, very different sound to what their instruments are actually playing thou. They got into big trouble over it.
This song is absolutely Epic when you see them Live!
Tina S. made a pretty popular guitar cover of this, that Herman Li himself was impressed by.
He was also impressed with a guy covering it on a flute.
Just watched and DAMN I was really amazed
Nothing beats the flute guy
@@StroggKingu Well, there was also an accordion version.
Tina S is good but she makes mistakes.
The drumming is also on the next level. You now MUST watch Tina S covering it, then Herman Li (Dragonforce guitarist) reaction to the cover.
and if you want to complete the experience - Watch Junna doing the Drums cover and then Gee (Dragonforce drummer) reacting to the cover.
Then you need a week rest ! :)
Thumbs up for Tina S. Moonlight Sonata is her best imo.
Fun fact; at about 6:46 in your vid here, when Lee does the Mario power-up sorta noise on his guitar right before he starts his solo, he broke his whammy bar off of his guitar; you can see it flying back behind him as his solo starts XD
He didn't break it - he does the sound effect with the whammy and then flings it away for his solo. Also, it's a Pacman sound effect
Why would he take the time to unscrew and fling the whammy bar when he needed to make the sound again later? Also it sounds more like a Mario power-up to me than Pac Man, but either works fine I suppose. Not saying you're wrong (I don't know the guy or anything), but those are just the things I've heard.

YES!! You did it!!! I've been waiting for you to react this for aaaages :)
Watching your reactions are always so fun.
That guitar battle is epic. Reaction was also very enjoyable. Keep 'em coming Rachel.
Very glad you got around to this one ^^ Always enjoyable to see people react to this song.
I saw these guys at Ozzfest 2007. It was just as impressive live.
Epic power metal given a MASSIVE speed metal injection.
I've been sat in a room when Sam was noodling - it's bonkers how skilled he is......
The Mordor reference is a marriageable offense lol... Love your content and I hope you keep you keep growing!!!
Thanks for this. Ill come back when my face stops melting. Ill follow up.
2:58 - It’s called Speed Metal.
Their older stuff is more meme-ish nowadays but their songs are actually pretty good. Heroes of Our Time is probably their best song imo, you should check it out, I haven't seen too many people listen to it
Such a killer classic tune 🤘
Brings back my guitar hero days 😅
They always put on a great live performance
You should watch Tina S playing this!!
Even Herman Li was blown away watching it and at one point said she played it better.
Then watch her cover Moonlight Sonata.
The drummer is absolutely balls out this whole song
Iv been listening to these guys for years, my first song with them and just hooked🤘
watching the wammy bar fly off Herman's guitar when he does the first pacman noise before the solos gets me every time.
The most complex epic guitar battle of all time!!! Try fury of the storm live in Japan by them next Rachel.
Not even close 🤭🤣 people mistake guitar hero difficulty for actual difficulty. Is the song technical absolutely. Is it difficult, a little. But it's nowhere near the most "complex" lol.
@@insertgenericusernamehere2402 but it's the most epic guitar work in one song overall anyways so i didn't lied about it.
@@Dani-X01 I'd have to disagree with that again but you're more than welcome to have that opinion 😊
@@insertgenericusernamehere2402 of course I still do nevermind we agreed in disagree that's fine.
6:00 I expected you to whip your hair around like them, you have the right length. 😜
that was the short version. I've seen them live. It blows my mind
you're the best!
hugs from brazil
=P
I want someone to do a first time reaction to this while wearing a heart rate monitor 🤣
What a classic, my fingers still hurt from GH3 lolol
PLEASE listen to the full version. it like a chocolate cake vs chocolate cake with icing
I been waiting for this moment
If you want your mind blown, watch Tina S. cover this song at age 15 !
I was 9 when this came out 😭 i remember being so mindblown
There is a longer version you should of listened to to fully appreciate this track. This was my first exposure to Herman Li & Sam Totman, DragonForce and this type of Metal in general. Both Tina S & TheDooo have covered this that you should also check out :)
Awesome reaction.
that song is the true secret ultimate boss of guitar games
Dude. Apart from this song which by now is a memesong, their entire catalogue is chock full of so many bangers
I don't think ive ever seen someone so turned on by someone playing the guitar 😂 your reactions are amazing!
I remember this on GH3 oh the good ol days, I feel so old now... lol
I play this every know and then to keep my guitar chops up. It’s 200bpm but other than that it’s just the key of C in minor modes. It’s fun to play around with. Nice reaction 🤘
The drummer is also going HARD during this one.
React to Tina S. cover
Quick reminder, someone is keeping time to this on the drums!
"Reminds me of DnD" is wildly accurate, since Dragonforce is a group of DnD players who wrote metal ballads based on their gaming sessions
The chicken from baby metal kills on the drums to this song.
They are the kings of Power Technical Metal. Herman Li is a machine.
The video/song for Strangers is awesome too
I use this song to warm up before playing myself.
Always makes my uno games much better.
I've always said that Dragonforce's lyrics seem like they are watching a large group D&D gaming through a weekend and just writing down what happens.
Herman and Sam, man.. They're just built different. It's like watching Buckethead, like.. EXCUSE ME WTF, HOW DO YOUR HANDS WORK THAT WAY!? 🤯
I love to relax to this song. I'm not kidding after a hardcore workout I would get get in my car crank it to 11 and feel the soothing vibrations
@10:50 Yes, MAJOR D&D vibe, because Powermetal as a genre has a heavy fantasy emphasis. A lot of songs focus on going to war against evil, of victory, and the indomidable human spirit.
You should react to guitar cover version from Tina S
And Yuna's drum cover.
I was literally going to say 'this is the short version', but someone already did haha
When she stops to think and you can see her chair shaking as she drums her feet. Lol
Herman Li did some great stuff for ALS and Jason Becker. Just finished a tour with Amaranthe.
Gotta listen to the full version
Saw them live in March. This was the last song on the setlist
I don't usually listen to such twiddly music, I usually prefer unga bunga caveman riffs, or atmospheric emotional riffs, but I am always impressed when I see this video.
I do suggest you listen to the full version. This was done when music videos cut songs down for TV airings. The song is even better in it's full form
She looks like she started a race at a sprint and didn't realize that it was a marathon
i discovered these guys and this song through Guitar hero on the xbox, also probably what made me a metal head to this day, was more into rock before, this song of cause was the end boss of the game so even on easy mode was hard to play.
Legendary
Do the Tina S Cover!
They have a very similar sound to that of coheed and cambria in my opinion and I like the reaction to this song, keep up the good work Rachael 😊🤘🔥🎸😎
You have to watch Junna's drum cover and Tina S guitar cover (Dragonforce members reacted to those and loved them)
Everybody and their mom have reacted to this song. Off the top of my head, I recommend Ashes of the Dawn and Three Hammers. These both have videos you can watch, and the singing is top-notch.

"Buckethead: Welcome to Bucketheadland" if you wanna hear a solo shredder guitar
Love your hair ❤
Now you can listen to 'Fury of the storm' live in japan

Check out premonition of pain by 3 inches of blood
And until today folks still ask Herman ''Do you know, you guys have got a song on guitar hero !?'' lol
The drum covers of this song are crazy good too! I strongly recommend to listen to one or two ^^
The best shampoo commercial ever made! 😂
remember ray...one doe not simply walk into Mordor...even in 1 minute!
Doggo!!!! In the background!!!
I love this song and the full length is almost 8 mins long. You should look up and react to the Guitar Hero 3 Expert gameplay of this song. As a basshead I’ve always wanted to learn to play this song and I will one day
