DragonForce will be releasing a new self-titled album on March 19. That effort finds the band joined by new vocalists Alissa White-Gluz (Blue Medusa, ex-Arch Enemy) and Alessio Garavello. A video for the first single, “Hunger Of The Beast,” can be found below:
Guitarist Herman Li commented:
“Every time we begin making another album, we just think, ‘Wow — I can’t believe we’re still doing what we love after all these years.’ The approach of the tenth album is as important as the first one, or any of the albums, because the way we look at music is we’re making a piece of art that’s going to be frozen in time. We always try to use everything we’ve learned from our years of experience, and put that into the new music. This is unlike any DragonForce album you’ve ever heard, and unlike any metal albums out there. There’s just nothing like it, and everyone listening will realize that straight away. We’re not trying to be commercial. We’re not trying to be popular. We’re not trying to be famous. We make music because we want to make something that we love to hear and elevate our musicianship to the next level.”
White-Gluz added:
“I have loved the entire process of making music with DragonForce. It’s great to connect with such elite musicians and work together to really bring out the best of our respective styles. I think this new combo of speed and ferocity is refreshing and exciting. It’s going to be so much fun to perform live.”
