Dragonforce is the perfect band for the 00 generation, the generation that already born with computers and cell phones.

Why I say that? Simple! Sonic Firestorm and all their discography, is like a computer joke, a Ctrl+C Ctrl+V in every well known song by every well known power metal band from the 90's, but of course, with a little 'speed' up, cause you know, it's like a picture nowadays, withouth Photoshop it's not a real picture. Way more cool if it's really fast.

It's funny how in the end of the day, great 70's musicians like Ritchie Blackmore turn out to be the 80's Yngwie Malmsteens and they became Stratovarius and Gamma Rays in the 90's and were followed by Dragonforce in 00's.

It would be really funny if it wouldn't really tragic.

I think this review of Dragonforce do some justice to the music of Dragonforce in general. For these guys, it's more important to demonstrate speed and technichal skills than feeling. There's better power metal out there (including Gamma Ray).

What's wrong with 80s Malmsteen? What's wrong with Gamma Ray for that matter too?

Personal taste is irrelevant. I find this review sub-par though because he forgot to talk about the actual music.
