DragonForce - Killer Elite (2016)

DragonForce fans have reason to rejoice as the band will be in the spotlight quite a bit over the next year or so. It all begins with the release of a new greatest hits album titled Killer Elite. The collection features 22 tracks that encompass two hours and 30 minutes of classic DragonForce material. In that collection, you’ll find three live songs “Fields of Despair,” “Three Hammers” and “Starfire” while three other tracks “Black Fire,” “Valley of the Damned” and “Heart of a Dragon” have all been remastered. The set also includes such favorites as “Through the Fire and Flames,” “The Last Journey Home” and “Seasons” among others.

Guitarist Herman Li says, “The aim of this release is to give a strong flavor of everything we’ve recorded so far, and I like to think it shows a lot of diversity. Certainly, we tried to make it as broad-based as possible. Since Marc [Hudson] joined the band (replacing original frontman ZP Theart), we’ve actually released some of our speediest songs and some our most melodic compositions, too. DragonForce isn’t just about the relentless tempos and the flashy solos; ultimately, it’s the feel of the music that counts…”
