Attention heavy metal warriors and guitar heroes across the land. DragonForce are pleased to announce "Ultra Beatdown" as the title of their forthcoming new album for Roadrunner Records, due in stores on August 26th.
"Ultra
Beatdown" is an epic, sweeping, grand collection of infectious guitar
anthems that'll inspire all who listen to either pump their fists in
the air or pick up a guitar, whether it be real or virtual.
DragonForce's single from 2006's Inhuman Rampage, "Through The Fire and
Flames," exploded on the public beyond the metal world thanks to its
appearance on the massively popular guitar simulator game. The single
has been RIAA certified Gold in the US, with the album scanning over
300,000 copies (and counting) to date.
The track listing for "Ultra Beatdown" is as follows:
1. Heroes of Our Time
2. The Fire Still Burns
3. Reasons to Live
4. Scars of Yesterday
5. Heartbreak Armageddon
6. The Last Journey Home
7. Inside the Winter Storm
8. The Warrior Inside
DragonForce
will spend the summer as a main stage attraction on the inaugural
Rockstar Energy Mayhem tour, which features labelmates/headliners
Slipknot, as well as Disturbed, Machine Head, Mastodon, and Airbourne,
to name a few. DragonForce will undoubtedly tear up the stage with
their blend of guitar acrobatics, traded off by the virtuosos known as
Herman Li and Sam Totman, as well as the soaring, room-filling vocals
of ZP Theart. Bassist Fredric Leclerq and drummer Dave Mackintosh
continue to fortify the band's rhythmic backbone, while Vadim Pruzhanov
laces the band's power sound with keys.
