Ya know, they really should've called the record "Ultra Velveeta". Just seems more appropriate somehow.

Surprisingly good shredder.
No he isn't. Everyone should know that he is a good shredder so it shouldn't come as a surprise.

Don't forget to add the no-band clips, which make no sense.

For some good prog metal shredding check out Between the Buried and Me and Symphony X. They can actually PLAY their solos not just "write" them. And they're well written, not just mindless wanking. God I hate DragonForce...

Both of the bands also have some beautiful, emotion filled solos and parts to their albums unlike DragonForce which is entirely bare of all emotion.
Warning: The video you are about to see is full of cheese....

Dragonforce is shameful. The only thing worse than a one-trick pony is a one-trick pony whose trick was never interesting in the first place.

@ the BTBAM video:

Do S series really get that good sustain? Or does it just seem good compared to the crap sustain I get out of my guitar?

I dig it

I dont' really care about the "scene" opinion.
So i love the song ofcourse.
Say what you guys might, they are talented.
I love when people call things wanking and they can't even do them in the first place.
Oh and i also love people pretend metal isn't double bass, screaming and for the most part "wanking".
You dig metal or you don't, but don't blame Dragonforce for what most of the metal bands do anyways ya know.
I love metal for the "wanking", screaming and double bass, Dragonforce has that, so i love them too.

Why? Oh Why does it have a guitarsolo like that?
This thing is just like the last part of "When".
*away doing an instrumental interlude called "That"
