I think they are a really awesome band. They play amazingly fast power metal guitar solos like in Through the Fire and Flames. They have been criticized on live performances for being somewhat sloppy, but I still think Herman and Sam have so much talent and will continue to improve. They can also play slow ballads like Starfire and Trail of Broken Hearts which I love too.
So who else likes them? Or even if you are not a fan, have you heard of them or their music before?

My son sent me a link to a video and it was great! I've grown out of idolizing players for shredding but I really liked the song. Now you've reminded me, I'll have to get busy and look up some more stuff by them.

I've been listening to Dragonforce before they were even heard of on Guitar Hero, and I saw them live late last year. They were awesome. They must have been on song then because they sure as heck won't sloppy. Perhaps the only criticism I have on their live performance is that the live vocals are poor, but otherwise playing wise everything was spot on. Great band and tunes, although I must say even the ballads are really fast. :)

I've heard 2 of their songs... can't remember what they're names were. But I do remember that the guitar solo was pretty good. I have absolutely no idea what they would sound like live...

The only song I've heard from them is Through Fires and Flames and it's only because of guitar hero. That song is sooo hard... especially in Expert. I do think their songs are pretty awesome. I was browsing through Itunes and they have some pretty good songs.

I love Dragonforce (although not as much as metallica but still), my favorite dragonforce song is Black Fire, man that song is hardout, but you gotta admit E.P.M is quite weird whereas they start off at a slow and retarted pace, then you go hardout. also about herman and sam, yeah I aggree with you. Broken Hearts is actually a great song!

I didn't hear of them until I started playing GH3. Right now, I am trying to get 100% on "Through the Fire and Flames" in Easy mode, Hyperspeed times 5. I like that song, but I couldn't play it on a real guitar to save my life!
