With this entry I would like to recant my previous criticism of DragonForce's "Ultra Beatdown" Album. I was hasty in my judgement and have discovered that I am not good at liking music on my first time listening. Upon further consideration and re-listening to parts of it I have grown to like it.
It is indeed a slightly different style and it lacks "meh" tracks (not bad tracks, they just don't have the same quantities of mind-blowing awesomeness, though they are still very good - "Storming of the Burning Fields", "Revolution DeathSquad" et cetera...) Most (if not all) of its songs fit into the "Epic War" category and as I listen to it now I find its songs much easier to understand than previously and its rhymes and rhythms fit much better than I previously thought.
I also just watched a bunch of videos on DragonForce's Youtube channel. Their stage-antics are absolutely hilarious. Also, I noticed that they took down the "Through the Fire and the Flames" music video (likely because it was laughable at best) and I was pleasantly surprised by "Heroes of our Time"'s video. I noticed that rather than cutting the solos for time, they cut the song down to just a bit of the intro, the first verse, chorus and then left in all (or most) of the solos and "epic verse" at the end. Also the bright setting was interesting.
I bet you were expecting something special for post 100, eh?
