DragonForce Give North America An <i>Ultra Beatdown</i>

BY Josiah HughesPublished Aug 27, 2008

Released this week, DragonForce’s fourth album Ultra Beatdown is just that: a non-stop, pummeling monstrosity that shreds and wails with unending, unspeakably fast guitar and synth solos. Sound like fun? It is, and it’s even better live. That’s why you’re in luck. The band have just announced a massive North American tour.

The whole thing kicks of in Honolulu on November 1, with the band pillaging through the States until they reach Canada in December. There, they will make stops in Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver. Sounds like an early Christmas present!
