Description

The fastest band in the world, GRAMMY-nominated extreme power metal legends DRAGONFORCE, are Warp Speed Warriors!

Grammy-nominated extreme power metal pioneers DRAGONFORCE will release their monumental new album and Napalm Records debut "Warp Speed Warriors" on March 15, 2024! The iconic band is known for their masterful, incomparable and lightning-fast guitar solos that have influenced an entire genre. The band around virtuoso guitarists and founding members Herman Li and Sam Totman draws inspiration from a variety of heavy metal styles, fantasy worlds and video games.

Formed in 1999, the band DRAGONFORCE has captivated audiences worldwide with their successful albums and iconic singles, including the platinum hit "Through the Fire and Flames" - the ultimate challenge for gamers in the legendary "Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock" . Known for their epic compositions that push the boundaries of heavy metal, DRAGONFORCE explore a wider range of different musical styles than ever before on their highly anticipated new album, evolving their sound throughout the exciting musical journey.

The breathtaking opening track "Astro Warrior Anthem" lives up to DRAGONFORCE's reputation as the fastest band in the world and captivates the listener from the start with extremely fast guitar solos. The following Zelda-inspired track "Power of the Triforce" keeps the power at the top before DRAGONFORCE temporarily slows it down for the ballad "Kingdom of Steel". Fast drum patterns and stirring guitars carry the catchy "Burning Heart," while the chanting "Space Marine Corp" features a strong and uplifting chorus. Electronic influences in the magnificent power metal anthem "The Killer Queen" hypnotize, while singer Marc Hudson climbs the sky with his vocals. On "Doomsday Party" 80s rock influences meet captivating retro video game soundscapes and epic guitar solos in true DRAGONFORCE style. Following the final original track on Warp Speed Warriors, "Pixel Prison," DRAGONFORCE's unexpected but brilliant cover of Taylor Swift's "Wildest Dreams (Taylor's Version)" concludes the epic adventure.

Produced by Herman Li, Sam Totman and Damien Rainaud - and mixed and mastered by the latter - Warp Speed Warriors is an unparalleled, innovative listening experience that continues the band's legacy with songs that will undoubtedly become instant classics in the DRAGONFORCE canon and beyond become out.
