Dragonforce ProfileGuitar Hero isn’t cool anymore and DragonForce are well aware their gimmick has outstayed its welcome. In response, they’ve released Maximum Overload, showcasing a matured band that still knows how to have fun. This is helped by vocalist Marc Hudson, who has settled into his role as quasi-European power metal vocalist. Tastefully-placed Herman Li guitar-flairs ensure that DragonForce won’t alienate their mainstream fans while proving they can still get hard and heavy with the metal elite. While a few experiments might fall short, the bizarre cover of Ring Of Fire is a hilarious success.
