News: DragonForce release video for cover of Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams ahead of new album due in March and co-headlining European Tour with Amaranthe



DragonForce have released an official video for their excellent Taylor Swift cover, 'Wildest Dreams (DragonForce’s Version)'. The cover is included as a bonus track on select editions of their anxiously-anticipated album, Warp Speed Warriors, out on 15th March via Napalm Records. The Grammy-nominated unit have transformed the pop superstar’s huge hit into a lightning-fast power metal anthem, featuring incredible guitar solos and sky-high vocals. DragonForce’s version first caused a wave of buzz in the press and on social media after the band performed it live on their most recent North American tour.

Founded in 1999 by virtuoso guitarists Herman Li (also known for his Twitch channel with 270k followers) and Sam Totman, the new masterpiece Warp Speed Warriors sees DragonForce experimenting with more different genres than ever before, while staying true to their power metal roots. DragonForce will kick off their European co-headline tour with Amaranthe in Hamburg next week, with label mates Infected Rain supporting as special guests - make sure to grab your tickets now and get a taste of what’s to come from the band's explosive new video.


Herman Li on Warp Speed Warriors“After four years of creative incubation, we are beyond excited to release what we believe to be our most ambitious and grandiose record yet. This album showcases multiple facets of our artistic abilities, and we invite metal aficionados from every corner of the genre to discover something captivating within its layers. We can't wait to share this chapter of our musical journey with you, it's going to be EPIC!” 


Warp Speed Warriors was produced, mixed and mastered by Damien Rainaud at Mix Unlimited in Los Angeles, California with Sam Totman and Herman Li.
