International metal superstars DRAGONFORCE have revealed details of their forthcoming, brand new studio album. ‘Reaching Into Infinity’ will be released on earMUSIC on May 19th, 2017 on CD, LP, Digital and a special edition CD+DVD.
Recording the bulk of the album at Fascination Street Studios, Sweden, with producer Jens Bogren, the band also laid down tracks while touring their “Killer Elite” best of album, utilising Lamerluser Studios, London UK, Dark Lane Studios, Witney, UK, as well as the bands own Evil1 Studios in Charleville-Mézières, France and Shredforce One Studios, CA, USA.
“We were flying out, playing a festival, then back into the studio, then back out again,” explains bass player Frédéric Leclercq, who also handled the majority of song writing on this album. “It was very intense and very tiring. I obviously played bass but also a lot of rhythm guitar, electric and acoustic, and lost my temper a few times - I think we all did at some point, because we wanted to deliver nothing but the best.”
For their seventh studio album, DRAGONFORCE have opened up their sound like never before, capturing the fierce, forlorn and fun with both menace and melody.
“I think we have proven that playing fast was something we were good at, so this time I wanted to bring even more diversity into our music.” Fred continues. “It's great to challenge ourselves instead of staying in a comfort zone, and I really wanted to experiment with Marc’s vocals. I think people are going to be surprised at his brutality!”
The first album to feature Gee Anzalone, the Italian drummer, has laid down an insanely impressive performance to provide the perfect backbone to the DRAGONFORCE sound, which of course still boasts the bands trademark crazy-fast solos, courtesy of guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman.
The band will give fans their first taste of the new songs in a live setting at a very exclusive one-off show at Camden Town, London’s Black Heart venue, on April 12th.
Says guitarist Sam Totman:
"This is going to be insane! We always like to kick things off with some intimate shows and this will be the smallest London show we've done since doing 3 consecutive weeks at The Barfly back in 2005. It's going to be a wild sweaty party!"
“The title of the album explains pretty much what we are trying to do with our music,” Fred concludes. “Today's world is really crazy - there is fear of the future, uncertainty. But the power of music is infinite, and it can give strength and hope to people.”

[@stegsamn7571]

2019 I love you DragonForce!

[@sixpathsasori3608]

Sam and Marc didn't like to play my favorite DF song which is The Game:(

[@GPaul2222]

I love gee

[@sensacionsombria5125]

i dont blame them. They must be tired of playing always the same songs... i dont know why they just dont change their setlist... they should play old songs from VOTD and SF

[@dragonforceczar1610]

tomazo tomazo That or more songs off Ultra Beatdown. Such an under-appreciated album with such great songs, like The Fire Still Burns and ESPECIALLY Inside the Winter Storm!

[@sensacionsombria5125]

DragonForceCzar hell yeah, it's a really amazing album!

[@TerminatorZXY]

Ultra Beatdown is their best album IMO. I wouldn't care if they removed Through the Fire and Flames from the setlist.

[@sixpathsasori3608]

DragonForceCzar
I wanna hear Heartbreak Armageddon,Inside the Winter Storm,and The Fire Still Burns live

[@TerminatorZXY]

Yep, Ultra Beatdown needs more appreciation.

[@MadeInPoland182]

I like the questions in the interview, but subtitles, please...

[@sorayaamaimperio]

Same

[@lorenzobarichello5236]

Where is Vadim? :(

[@SeanORaigh]

He quit because he's a religious fundamentalist and generally a nutbag of a person.

[@temsupongen3381]

I love to play guitar like Herman and Sam.....

[@abbe3597]

what is the background song called?

[@th6n]

curse of darkness
