I wondered why Alicia and Gee wouldn't value their fingers that much. Then I asked Chat-GPT and found that an unsharpened section between the hilt and the blade is not that uncommon, especially for big, two-handed swords. It's called a ricasso, and it can potentially improve the user's grip on the sword and unlock additional techniques in combat. Thank you, Dragonforce, for teaching me something new. Oh, and the song kicks ass as well.
Lots of metal bands are, it's the best part about all of it. Massively hard-rocking, brutal rhythms and then all of the songs are about knights and dragons and shit, it's amazing. Check out Rhapsody of Fire, for example.
Some other nerdy bands for those interested: Twilight force: Fantasy, elves 'n stuff - Epic-/ Powermetal (Or both) Fellowship: Hobbits - Powermetal Gloryhammer: Space wizards, unicorns, Scotland - Powermetal Wind Rose: Dwarves - Epic Powermetal Nekonomicon: Videogames - Mostly chiptune/synth metal but also powermetal (mostly with, sometimes without death voals) Battlelore: Lord of the Rings - Epic/heavy metal(?) Not sure with them Beast in Black: Anime (Berserk) - Synth-/Powermetal Grailknights: Superheros - Powermetal Frenzy: Comic books - Heavy metal Well, that's all from the top of my head 😄
First Castlevania with Symphony Of The Night, then Skyrim with The Last Dragonborn, then Starship Troopers with Troopers Of The Stars(yes I know it’s a book/movie but still), now The Legend Of Zelda with Power Of The Triforce? Yes please!!!! Well done to all involved!!!
In a time where a lot of artists take themselves way too seriously, it’s so awesome to see Dragonforce still making fun music. Not that they aren’t serious musicians but they seem to genuinely write songs about what they enjoy and keep the energy up.
Just worked with these guys on their tour.... The livegame is next level, and you couldn't ask for a nicer group of guys. Shoutout to their tech staff, was a big league hang
They were so amazing! I wish when I and my hubs was at the show we could of shown them our 4 year old that keeps up with the drumming and plays them constantly, the frequency of there music helps her brain tumor
Which is your favourite Zelda game? This is from our new album 'Warp Speed Warriors' out March 15th 2024! Stay tuned for more epic tunes coming your way! Come say hi on tour!
I really love that song! Thank you for making that song! Zelda has been my childhood and I still love Zelda to this day! Anyways, my favorite Zelda games have to be Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask and Twilight Princess! I have Zelda Breath of the Wild and Tears Of The Kingdom and they’re both really good!! Thanks again for making that song and I can’t wait to see you guys on tour next month!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥
@@onlyme3it's called The Legend of Zelda, great adventure games that have been going on since the late 80's, I suggest you look into them and if you own any Nintendo consoles or are able to emulate, you give them a shot. I know I'm biased but they're genuinely great games, all of them are worth playing but some that stand out to me are Twilight Princess (my all time favorite game ever), Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, A Link to the Past, Minish Cap, and the two latest ones, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom
I just wanted you guys to know that my 4yo daughter absolutely loves this song and video, especially "the part where the guitar solo spells kick the goblins' butts" as she puts it 😅❤
That's personally why I adore DragonForce. Their music is classed as "Nintendo Power" 🤣 they sample a lot of sound effects from various Nintendo games, and a lot of their lyrics pay homage
I have been incredibly sad recently, but this song and a couple of other Dragonforce songs have just made me so happy to an immeasurable level. You guys are the BEST. Never stop rocking 🤘
"We love Zelda, so here is our new song 'Power of the Triforce' inspired by the Zelda video games. Should this be in the live action The Legend of Zelda movie?" - In Description of the video And I was thinking the same thing and about to comment about it! I for sure think it should be in the live action of The Legend of Zelda movie, we know the movie is coming and confirmed, and Nintendo has the utmost money to spare and spend on their treasured IP's, so I wouldn't put it past them to consider using this song, and I'd definitely push for it too, It'd bring such an awesome atmosphere and heroic feeling, plus it's DragonForce, their songs and how they make music is so iconic and cool!
1:12 For a second I thought he just straight up grabbed the sword by the blade and pulled, which seems like a quick way to lose fingers. But no, there's a leather strap around the lower part of the blade.
The new Dragonforce power metal is here.. Majestic and epic Great video and super song to stay to eternity...Marc ..Herman..Sam..Alicia..Gee..Heroes of our times..Long live Dragonforce...
wtf si no paran de hablar de la master sword y la princesa del crepusculo, obvio no pusieron nada referente al video por que nintendo les mete una mega demanda @@RiscDj
@@RiscDj Pero de que hablas si mencionan cosas de toda la saga, mencionan a Hyrule, Ganon, el templo del tiempo el "Ascender" de Skyward sword, la Master Sword, mencionan los componentes de la Triforce, Coraje, Sabiduría y Poder, las doncellas de link to The past, las llaves de jefes en mazmorras, mencionan a Agahnim, el árbol deku, las piedras de las razas en ocarina entre otras cosas es simplemente HERMOSA
@@RiscDjy la canción en si, es muy buena, tal vez una referencia a los temas musicales de la saga nada mal pero se entiende porque no, aún así la pieza esta BUENISIMA y lo digo yo, que solo había escuchado Through The Fire and flames y un fan aserrimo de The Legend Of Zelda
If Nintendo were smart, they'd have this be the ending credits song. Of course, if Nintendo were smart, they'd have let Dragonforce actually use Ganondorf, Link, and Zelda for this video, so fat chance of that.
Always respected how Dragonforce manages to go with the time. They are doing so much cool stuff and are really connected with their fanbase. From streaming to meming to shredding, these guys are the full package.
Nobody does Dragonforce better than Dragonforce themselves. Not even at the chorus yet and already smiling ear-to-ear. Thanks for another banger & please keep creating music for years to come!
and another song where the drums roll over you like a thunderstorm and the voices get under your skin... the guitars are just epic... this one, will blow your mind to rock... THANK YOU for this masterpiece
It's like they're telling a story... In one of the many attempts to ressurrect ganondorf in the death hero timeline, one of his followers looked for the master sword in order to perform an unknown and obscure ritual. Just when he found out its whereabouts and head to its location, something unexpected happened. A group of bards offered their help in protecting the sword. The guards allowed it since they were going to need all the help possible. After the battle, the few surviving guards could swear that they saw those bards casting powerfull spells against the evil priest's forces. They even insisted that one of them managed to pull out the master sword and use its power to defeat the priest. From that they, whey wondered if they were just a band of bards or they were something else.
If there's anything that aliens, evil robots, goblins, demons, and other baddies should learn, it's to never underestimate the power of DragonForce 🤘🤘 Love this song!!!!!!
As a big fan of The Legend of Zelda, I have to congratulate you and also thank you for this masterpiece, a tribute at the height of the great saga that many of us love, may the legend last forever!
This is the good old DragonForce. Nice to see you going back to your roots. Can’t wait for the album to drop next year and hopefully see you guys again back in the UK.
I've been waiting for a song like this. First we got The Last Dragonborn, and now this. I really hope we get more songs based on video games. My undying respect for you guys will never fade
I have to confess it's been a long time since I last listened to Dragonforce as I sorta dropped off when I heard ZP Theart left, so this is legit my first time hearing them again in probably a decade. Man what a nice re-introduction, with an awesome song based on my all time favorite game series!
Check out the Maximum Overload album, you will not regret it if you like the energy of this song. Tomorrow's kings is my favorite in that album hands down, and the Ring of Fire cover is great. I recall some purists being upset but it's more Dragonforce than Johnny cash so I'm fine with it.
I would definitely listen to some of their newer songs, I myself am giving their older songs a listen, honestly from my view, they kept a lot of that energy from the previous vocalist with the new one.
@@crossfire2045 At first I was sad at the vocalist change when it was announced fuckin years ago, but honestly now I prefer Marc's performances over ZP's even when doing old ZP era songs. Honestly, the difference in live performances is crazy. Marc absolutely crushes it on stage!!!!!!!! Highly recommend catching a show whenever they tour near you if you haven't caught them live yet dude. Its a fucking experience bro. Also this is metal, lineup changes happen quite a bit with metal bands and it can honestly be a great way to inject new energy into a band and for the musicians themselves to grow and evolve.
I feel like if you have followed this band for even a little bit....you knew this day would come They also did an amazing job....seeing Herman play his entire solo with an inverted hand position was great the talent these guys have man
Imagine Link using an Electric Guitar of Time? A V guitar that turns out to be his Triforce in disguise like how Tetra was wearing hers around her neck in Wind Waker? Cool plot point for another game in the future.
If people only knew that "the triforce" is an ancient occult symbol that was so popular it was even found on some of the oldest swords ever excavated from antiquity.
I first heard of this from my 2 older brothers, who are somewhat die-hard fans, and holy shit you 5 are amazing. From the sheer speed of Through The Fire And Flames, to the perfect lyrics of The Last Dragonborn, I can officially say that I have now joined the DragonForce community! Truly amazing music!
i honestly am having trouble of deciding who is the lesser in this. Legend of Zelda is a mythical legend of the gaming genre. DragonForce is a mythical legend of the Metal genre
AWESOME!!!!! Here's the Lyrics: See the legend rising from the gates of time Now all feel the magic of the Master Sword We need a hero In the magical land of Hyrule A hero feared by all ghosts and ghouls With the power to save us from Ganons dark force tonight Fighting Through the overworld fast as lightning With the thunder and rain behind him To the castle to crush the evil demons grasp tonight For the Twilight Princess And the Evil Priestess For the lost treasure chest far beyond the sky See the legend rising from the gates of time Now all feel the magic of the Master Sword Wisdom, courage, and the power unite Now all feel the glory of the Master Sword Power! Power! Power of the Triforce Power! Power! Power of the Triforce All feel the glory of the Master Sword raised high Over lakes and mountains The hooves of our horses pounding The cries of our enemies sounding The numbers of the dead pile high in the mire of mystery Raging With the magic hammer invading Break the chains of the Seven Maidens Now the pyramids power destroyed by the lonely Cursed Fairy In the swamp of evil Find the ancient seal With the light restored, behold the golden key See the legend rising from the gates of time Now all feel the magic of the Master Sword Wisdom, courage, and the power unite Now all feel the glory of the Master Sword Power! Power! Power of the Triforce Power! Power! Power of the Triforce All feel the glory of the Master Sword raised high Dark wizards rise from dungeons down below To the final battle now with Agahnim we go Now we go! With the stones of power At the mystic tree With the green lands of Hyrule now freed See our arrows fly Ganons last defeat And the stars awaken now forever free See the legend rising from the gates of time Now all feel the magic of the Master Sword Wisdom, courage, and the power unite Now all feel the glory of the Master Sword Power! Power! Power of the Triforce Power! Power! Power of the Triforce All feel the glory of the Master Sword raised high
To see two things I grew up with mesh together so perfectly is absolutely unreal, what incredible work! Especially with the references amidst the lyrics!
Okay, I did NOT expect this when I got out of bed today. This was so badass! Feel the glory of the Master Sword and go forth heroes! Continue to save the people of Hyrule with your Songs of Time! May the goddess Hylia smile upon you.
I'm happy and fortunate to get to see Dragonforce, up close in Chicago at the House of Blues. Thank you for the memories! Ive been waiting 16 years to see you all in concert and you did not disappoint. Herman and Sam straight killing it! -Daniel
@@dragonforce I should be thanking you all. You all have continued to make amazing music all these years and you came to Chicago on tour. It was a blast! I look forward to the next one.
