"Through the Fire and the Flames" and the band Dragonforce for that matter is a good example of a band that is loud, fast, and heavy enough to be called METAL, but features more singing than screaming vocals. This song is played with Really fast speedy guitar picking, known as "speed picking". the song has two solos, both really fast (hyperspeed), really long (about 1 minute? each), and really good/ awesome (It may take a few seconds to get used to their incredible speed, but when you are adjusted you will realize that it is actually quite melodical, although it will gain volume later in the song).

OVERALL: a good investment, i reccommend that you buy this and burn it onto a blank CD through Itunes (my reccommendation and what i use), Windows Media Player, or Roxio, etc.

You may also like the album "Inhuman Rampage" by Dragonforce if you like this (one of it's best, well-known singles).

Uhh, yeah. that's it! check this song out!

I have to say that this song is awesome. I know some would criticize them and try to convince you that they are fake, but for anyone who does that is simply jealous they are unable to play as well as these guys. At a time there were rumors that they couldn't play their songs live due to their inability to play as fast as their recordings. However, they were just that...rumors! I've actually read reviews of this band in which the amateur reviewer simply plagiarizes other critic's and rumors from years ago; the very ones that were very much disproven. Seriously though, don't take my word for it, or the false words of any other reviewer; search the web and check it out for yourself.

Aside from all the naysayers, and even the fans, these guys are a breath of fresh air in my opinion. I love the shredding guitar and the crazy vocals and keyboards. If you listen to their music for the pure joy of listening to music I'm betting you will like it too. I'm sure this is the reason why the recorded the songs in the fist place. Head Bangers reunite and enjoy the ride.

This is like Milli Vanilli.Fakers in my opinion.They recorded the rythym section at a reasonable speed..and sped it up in the studio for the vocal part.As a guitarist for over 30 years..I can recognize clues to why I think its sped up.Clue one-No cymbals on the drums..why? because they would have no sustain sped up and sound like hitting alimunum foil.Clue 2-thier guitars would need 30 plus frets to hit some of those notes in the solo...Yes I know what harmonics are...and they are used..but if you listen close...you can tell.clue 3-the drum sounds are very high pitched with ZERO sustain..which would be caused by being sped up.But saying that..I like the tune.The studio does its tricks for others..and its enjoyable.But to buy a whole albim of this trickery...nope,.not me.If you like musical magic tricks..go for it...but I bet this trick gets real old by the 3rd song on the album.
