Who is Dragonforce

DragonForce was formed in 1999 from the remnants of black metal band Demoniac (and various other extreme metal groups) under the name of DragonHeart.

They got their name from their favorite game Dragon Warrior but soon changed their name to DragonForce before releasing any commercial albums due to possible commercial issues with Brazilian band Dragonheart.

Their career began with the publishing of their early songs on the first incarnation of MP3.com claiming the top of the site's heavy metal charts.

The hit song "Valley of the Damned" reached over 500,000 in the first few months. Two of the original members, Steve Williams and Steve Scott quickly left the band to form power metal outfit Power Quest.
