Dragonforce Announce New Album Details

[Power_Metal_Dom]

For anyone bothered, pre-orders on Play.com started today.

If I'm not mistaken Steve only wrote Where Dragons Rule which for some reason unknown to me didn't make it on to the album?

Is this true? WDR is probably my fav Dragonforce song, totally epic.

WDR was the bonus track, but if that's true I guess that's why it was just that. It's one of the best songs on the album, though. I hope that it's included on the remixed and remastered VOTD. A better quality version of that and all the other songs would be amazing.

Is this actually being released? I've heard nothing of it since it was postponed last October...

 

[Symphony]

Yeah, I wrote the original WDR but Sam changed some of the music and ZP changed some of the lyrics if memory serves.

I understand this to be true also.

Last I heard the remastered album was delayed due to.. illness in the staff. And sigh, the message board will probably never be back up.

I just had a look at the DF site. Hadn't been over there for years. Last time I was Herman was moderating the forum. I don't suppose he has time now.

 

[1928]

Well, I don't think that's really the problem because there were several dedicated people there, but before it went down (memory's fuzzy, I didn't get on too much during this time) there were a lot of sudden problems with spam and I guess some people hijacked it? Something like that, so they shut it down and it's been down since.

 

[1928]

Uh... wow.

... *cough* Well then. There you have it. Dragonforce.

That's all I have to say about this... this... thing.

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

What the f-
I'm sorry are DF providing the theme to some japanese sci-fi anime? Or a very ugly signal that they might try some Prophet of the Last Eclipse stuff?

 

[Alcaline]

Haha.

You know, I think I like it.

 

[SiliconMessiah]

Coffee snorted all over keyboard....

what the hell... i was anticipating something a bit crummy for the album art as they don't have the best track record but come on!!

i guess it's to do with their love of video games.. but still....

In fact it really looks like you can see where there's a CGI woman underneath some extra 2D photoshoppery to cover up an original version that didn't cut it...

 

[DE4life]

What the fuck.

All credibility successfully destroyed.

 

[fool_in_paradise]

Haha i don't quite know what to say. I guess you could say it's striking at the moment i don't know if i hate it or not it's certainly far from epic. I'll have to see what this sounds like before laying down any heavy criticism

 

[dragonwarrior]

I'll still probably give it a listen though.

 

[cavegirl]

i think dragonforce should use that cat picture for their album artwork.... ^^

seriously if i saw that in a shop id Lol and buy it!

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

Yay for lol macros

 

[TemplarOfSteel]

Yeah I spurted my breakfast all over the screen when I saw that this morning. With regards to the forum, no one really knows what happened. I got banned about a week before it all went tits up actually. A few of the regulars have set up a replacement if anyone's interested, although pretty much no DF based discussion takes place

 

[1928]

Why'd you get banned?
