Aww, another person who dislikes DragonForce. I wonder why so many people hate DragonForce? There's no gimmick. What you see is what you get. If anything, they define the essence of power metal and more. They've just carved a path impossible for others to follow at the moment.

Well I don't know the answer for sure, but most of the people i know that don't like dragonforce are heavy metal elitist who don't like anything unless it has death metal growls and when it doest have growls it isn't real metal. Which i disagree with completely. I'm just not a huge fan of power metal in general. And I'm not a huge fan of the singer, but not because he is not screaming either. I like plenty of bands with high voices, so its just not the pitch of his voice. Just all I hear when I hear dragonforce is the same power metal song every time. They all sound exactly the same. Really fast guitar, really high power metal voice, lyrics about dragons. Thats what i mean by gimmick, they but on the same act over and over just because they know their fans will suck it up. Not trying to criticize your taste in music (even though thats what im doing lol), because i know lots of the bands i listen too would probably get torn apart by someone. I'm just giving my opinion that is all.
And for the record im a fan of all music, it just has to be good. This includes rap so stop hating on it. There is some amazing rap out there, and once again if you listening to the radio i would agree with you somewhat. Although there is some good rap on the radio. And old country is really good, i wouldn't say i listen to it on a regular basis. But guys like johnny cash, and hank Williams lived true "rock star lives". They were what people today see as living like a rockstar. And i don't mean all the stuff mentioned in that Nickleback song (crappy radio rock) but i mean drinking all day, getting high, getting in fights. Then turning around and singing about doing all that stuff and on top of it talking about killing people. Now i wont condone anything they did or sang about, but they were the original hardass bad boys. So before you diss whole genres of music take time to think about what your saying. Because while were all talking about the roots of music, rocks roots are planted deeply in country music, like it or not. Ill will give you this however, modern country is probably the worst music ever. So if thats where your comments originated from i will agree.
wow sorry i didnt even notice it was so long
