Capping off what has been a whirlwind week for precision metal specialists Dragonforce, the band have just taken some creative liberties with the Taylor Swift hit, "Wildest Dreams". Spewing a shred-heavy version intended to take pop to face-melting places, the cut will be featured as a bonus track on the band's pending full length, Warp Speed Warriors, landing next month from Napalm Records.
The showing from the latest album only adds to the band's momentum, having recently been confirmed for an epic spring tour supporting Dethklok on the Mutation On A Spring Night tour alongside Nekrogoblikon. The spring tour will introduce domestic U.S. fans to the power and precision of Warp Speed Warriors - an effort guitarist and DragonForce lead Herman Li shared was a project years in the making.
“After four years of creative incubation, we are beyond excited to release what we believe to be our most ambitious and grandiose record yet. This album showcases multiple facets of our artistic abilities, and we invite metal aficionados from every corner of the genre to discover something captivating within its layers. We can't wait to share this chapter of our musical journey with you, it's going to be EPIC!”
Later this month, Dragonforce begins their co-headlining European run with Amaranthe and Infected Rain - with many performances already having sold out. Following the finale in London on March 24th, DragonForce will return to the states for the monthlong trek across the US for the Mutation On A Spring Night tour.
