Take a minute to listen to VALLEY OF THE DAMNED, the debut album from power metal throwbacks Dragonforce. Now pick your jaw up off of the floor. Influenced in equal measure by Maiden and Mega Man, the band craft impossibly soaring, inspirational theme music to Dungeons and Dragons games yet to be played. Guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman simply astound as their Nintendo-honed fingers run up and down the fretboards with impossible velocity, and singer ZP Theart's Steve Perry wailing could shatter glass. The uninitiated may find the excesses on VALLEY OF THE DAMNED to be intolerably '80, and the lyrics about warriors and fantasy worlds are certainly the stuff of the terminally girlfriend-less. There's nothing funny, however, about the album's magnificent technique and deadly pop hooks. When they cut loose on dizzying songs like "Black Winter Night," who cares if it's cheesy? It shreds.

Dragonforce: ZP Theart (vocals); Herman Li (acoustic & electric guitars, background vocals); Sam Totman (guitars); Vadim Pruzhanov (piano, keyboards); Didier Almouzni (drums).

Additional personnel: Diccon Harper (bass).

5 stars Good Melodic Release
I have been listening to Dragonforce for about a year now and own all 3 of their studio albums, and I must say that this is probably their second best release. I personally felt that Sonic Firestorm was their best release as it contained the most songs on one album that I could listen to often without growing weary of them. As for Valley of the Damned, it is one awesome album. The songs on this album seem to be the most melodic of all their material while still maintaining that raw speed that Dragonforce is known for. As with the other 2 albums, this one still has some face-melting solos and soaring choruses that will leave you feeling uplifted and positive. While Dragonforce's material sounds very similar from album to album, their material is top-notch, so fans should not seek for a drastic change. Even though the band does not stray far from their patented sound, this album will leave you smiling all the same.

5 stars The bestest
This is the BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!!! They're the kind of guys who will rock on-stage, and then party like there's no tomarrow. I think, that anyone interested in Rock, metal, or music at all, will like Dragonforce.

5 stars Excellence
Dragonforce is an excellent newer group. A drummer that can go probably faster than I've ever heard before and a vocalist that knows what he's doing, Valley of the Damned is an awesome purchase. This group has amazing skill and I look forward to future CDs by one the best new metal bands.

4 stars excellent stuff
this is when the band was hungry, and really had the song writing talent in full force, the other 3 releases are all but clones of the same sound, this one is edgier and more riff filled than newer stuff that has now turned into bubble gum metal and the like. this album is great along with sonic firestorm, but the new 2 cds are absolute clones and its hard to differ the 2 of them apart other than the titles and song titles. this one is a good buy as is firestorm.

Valley Of The Damned
CD $13.69  3.4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
Sweden's metal scene consistently breathes new life into a style that had long since hit a wall in many other territories. Among the most provocative and original of these acts is In Flames. The brainchild of vocalist Anders Friden and guitarist Jesper Stromblad, In Flames began in 1990, crafting a unique direction and, over time, solidifying a lineup of formidable instrumentalists, including longtime member Bjorn Gelotte (who moved from drums to guitar since joining the group). On SOUNDTRACK TO YOUR ESCAPE, In Flames relentlessly pushes stylistic barriers, incorporating goth, classic thrash, and death-metal elements, resulting in a distinctive blend. The heavy ballad "Evil in a Closet" begins with moody, clean vocals in the verses and unexpectedly blasts into a chorus of brutal death growls. Boasting sinister riffs in the Testament/Slayer vein, "Touch of Red" gives way to an instantly memorable chorus, while "The Quiet Place" stands as the most melodic and accessible ...

Hot Lava Owns You CD  (2007)

Valley Of The Damned
CD $9.35
Hot Lava is an indoor children's game, in which the players imagine the floor to be made of lava, or variably as any other unsavory substance, such as acid, and thus avoid touching the ground. The players stay off of the floor by standing on furniture or the room's architecture. The players generally do not remain still, moving from one piece of furniture to the next. There may even be a goal, to which the players must race. Typically, any individual can start the game just by shouting "the floor is lava". Any player remaining on the floor in the next few seconds is "out" and can not rejoin the game for a twenty four hour waiting period. This game has become increasingly popular among older children and teens in the past few years. The game was invented in 1814 by the shoemaker Micah J. Potts, who used the game as a marketing device to sell a new type of sandal that evolved into the modern "flip-flop."- from WikipediaAn ...
