the dragonforce hate and love thread

[ohiogrinder]

I find simplistic music to be much more enjoyable than super-technical music.

same here...thats why I listen to a lot of grindcore and bands like Darkthrone.

I fucking despise Dragonforce. One of the shittiest, least inspired bands to fucking emerge from the US metal scene in the past ten years for sure. I still remember their promo ads for their first album a few years ago - those fuckers used to hype themselves as "an epic black metal band". 'Nuff said. And Eric Petersen, the sorry motherfucker who formed that band, is just a fat little fuck with a mild case of down syndrome, as far as I'm concerned. He fucking sucks as a guitar player.

You're thinking of Dragonlord btw.

I like Dragonforce alot, hence my username. I never got how they got so popular so fast.

catchy melodies, simple music structure, kinda the same reason britney spears and the rest get soo much praise.

Fuck, connection problem. I orginally said: I like Dragonforce alot, hence my username. I never got how they got so popular so fast.

True. I also guess because of the solos. I mean, there are much more skilled guitarists in the metal scene but most people dont know that. A 3 min solo is like a signal flare of skill to casual music listeners as oppose to a complacted chord prgression which is like waving a glow stick in a dark cave to them.

You don't have to like it, just don't call operatic vocals gay. That is bad.

I can enjoy the clean vocals in Bathory's viking albums, so I guess that counts.

Dragonforce should be on the list of censored words.

Dragonforce epic black metal? WTF?

Like Nec said, he's thinking of Dragonlord.

Dragonforce is from England, not the US.
