What the guitarists are playing isn't all that fast or complex, however, making your hands look like they're jumping all over the place and using a very frantic feeling backing track makes it seem far, far, far faster, it's a pretty good trick, but it is a trick.

i just said i did, can't you read, you need to read all this then reply. You don't play guitar mate or you would know if you sit in a classical position ( if your right handed) with the guitar on your left knee, go try it and look at your hand position and feel the relaxed natural feeling your tendons in your forearm take. OK now from the minor 3d of E on the 5th string, play this string skipping arpeggio in Em. 3rd, 7th, root(octave higher) right up to the E on the 12th fret on the high E and back again. OK. Now stand up lower your strap so your guitar is very low like a rock star, play the same arpeggio. Notice your hand position the tension in your forearm and the fact that you will struggle a little more to make the stretches. If you practice standing up with your guitar in the same position you play live your muscle memory will develop differently. Have you never seen a REAL great player put his foot on the fold back for a complex solo, guess why? because its easier to play cleaner. fuckn fanboy scum, I've have a bachelor degree in contemporary music. I actually played in bands and recorded real albums, we recorded at the Butterfly effects managers house. You miss my point because your a fan boy. youtube search Ro Armu Tani, that was one of the more commercial bands i played in. those songs were re-written multiable times 14 min songs became 3-4 min catchy tunes, we removed all the big solos. Its nice to have big epic complex solos but when you have to play that night after night you spend more time just keeping your chops up plus its easier to jump about like a dickhead and head bang.

On my channel, it's mostly videos for fun and songs I played months ago, but progress is constant. Just never stop practicing and you can get good at everything. If you keep playing instruments for a long time, if you compare songs you picked up months ago and one you picked up last week, there would be a great difference.

The pause before the solo’s/duo remarking on how well they were had me laughing knowing what was to come. Great stuff.

You have to mention that the whole band is on another level. The singer, the drummer, the keyboarder and the bass player. The two crazy guys which are playing guitar are another level.

This is actually the short version, there's a longer 7 minute full version of this song. Other good songs by Dragonforce: Cry Thunder, Heros of our time, basically the whole Maximum Overload Album...

DO BATMETAL RETURNS. It's a Dethklok song that some animators made a video for and it's incredible.

Fun Fact: at 7:56 you can hear (if im remembering correctly) Herrman's string snap causing that rapid high to low sound.

Hahahahaha. Dude...I was so anxious to see your face when they got to the solos. Your reaction made me literally laugh out loud bruh!!! So good. Love this band.

Nightwish has a lot of phenomenal pieces (Ghost Love Score, Poet and the Pendulum, Song of Myself, Last Ride of the Day, Planet Hell). However, no matter what song, it is best to go to one of the live recordings with Tarja or Floor over the studio imo. Nightwish's sound is so great live.

I agree, I would recommend something off Wacken 2013 of Vehicle of Spirit, or Wembley but either way, I just forgot to mention the "Live part" in the comment.

Gives me goosebumps. I saw them live once, a couple of years in Germany on Knock-out festival. Fantastic!

a pleasure to have heard this masterpiece before it was released on guitar Hero always a fan of Dragonforce since I was a child now I am 30

Cloud connected in flames please

In flames - The quiet place

New to the channel, great reaction. It doesnt matter how many times I listen to this song I get goose bumps.

This was my first song heard from DragonForce too and heard it actually last year on SiriusXM's metal channel and I instantly fell in love! They're amazing!

Your face when the solo battle started was phenomenal and priceless. Mind blown indeed.

A lot of people wouldn't be able to sing to their potential trying to sing about something that traumatic. That's what makes it so crazy.. real, raw emotion. The song isn't about singing well. Its about telling that story and getting it out.
