    I love this song - but this is a cut down version with half the solo missing. Its a shame they don't have the full video on their channel. I guess they decided that just over 5 minutes was long enough.

      @wolokowoh0 2 роки тому

      This was back in the era of editing down times for tv and radio. If there is a longer version of the music video I havent seen it. Presuming it doesnt exist, its not that they wouldnt make it the full length if they were making it now. The reality is that music videos are for promotion first, art second, and at the time, getting on tv was important enough to trim off what you could to be seen than to not be seen. Now that streaming is more important, the length doesnt matter. Afterlife, Bat Country, and Beast and the Harlot by Avenged Sevenfold are all edited down by at least a minute. Tears Dont Fall by BFMV is the same. Waking the Demon has a version up with more cleans in place of harsh vocals than the album version because TV in some areas wouldnt play the album version. Some did have the original audio though.

    I made it to the end, through the brain melting awesome of this video and it just blows my mind how good DragonForce are, they remind me a lot of Dream Theatre in how technical and prodigious they are. While quite rightly people talk about the guitar work in this, I think the drummer is often overlooked at how much of a beast he is.

    My introduction to this song was from the John Ringo novel, “Choosers of the Slain.” Female American Air Force helicopter pilot is flying a Czech version of a Russian Hind and goes absolutely nucking futs and blows the crap out of Chechen machine gun bunkers while blasting this song from attached loudspeakers.

    I'm seeing this on Easter Sunday, so you would've already seen the concert. Their touring Bassist is Alicia Vigil from Vigil Of War. She recently directed her first music video for her group and it features Herman Li in the video and on the album tract as well.
    Hope the concert was fantastic. I was supposed to see them April 3 in NYC but came down with pneumonia and couldn't make it.
    As always, stay happy healthy and safe. Enjoy 👍
