Dominicus' "Blast Beat Manifesto" of the Week...the Force of the Dragon

Let's be honest. If you listen to an entire DragonForce album in its entirety you will probably never want to listen to them again. Seriously, every song sounds the same as the last song that was just played. I like variety in my metal. I like songs of brutality that make me feel extremely glad to be a metal warrior crusading for all that has been lost in the music....

However, on an album known as "Inhuman Rampage" there is this little jam of a song called "Through the Fire and the Flames" that totally rules the school. Its the kind of jam that makes a drummer want to throw away his drum sticks, put on his elastic stretchy pants that accentuate his plum smuggling dynamo, and find a big frilly shirt accompanied by a thick-ass-glitter-belt, and grab his trusty axe and shred away like these Dragon-Masters.

Therefore, pop this disc in. Listen to the masterfully mastered shredding and I will see you there on the other side of the fire and the flames.
