one key u lack in DF is the concept of creativity..which is one of the basic concepts art is based from..they are merely fast guitar players that play catchy stuff..musically and creatively DF is a really basic band..cynic on the other hand has the ideas of individualism and even spiritualism that ties in with the musical thought..the arrangements of the songs are unique but played out greatly..they are artists
what the fuck are all the people watching doing? they just stand there, at least move around every couple of minutes. show some appreciation for hearing the best music ever.
And just dont forget Theart, what instrument does he play? i'm sure some of you would like to jock off on the "extreme" speed metal like Perry475 down there.... but Masvidal is lead vocals and guitar. so to be clear, when you can do both while standing in front of the flashing lights and headbanging, then you can go ahead and claim you got skills,, until then im positive it is 100% overstated
Oh, in that case, nevermind. They're both good in their own ways, just depends on what you like. I'll put it this way, if I'm working out or something I'll throw on Sonic Firestorm, but if I'm studying or something I'll listen to Traced in Air...different styles for different moods for me.
Why are people even comparing Dragon Force to Cynic... I mean comparing is stupid in the first place and then you guys are just ruining the whle atmosphere by this non sense! Cynic are well rounded diverse musicians that break boundaries and. There must has everything in it to satisfy the inner soul and so many interesting things with in a song. They don't need to be on guitar hero to be kick ass they are just phenomenal. For those that don't know their history please do some study. Cynic rules!
note the percussion work of DF compared to cynic.. does df even have mentionable drum/bass work? their percussion section has the creative capacity of motor-boating goat cock. you could script DF music with 2nd year theory education and an Object C background.... on a macintosh YAH a MAC!!! i said it! i like DF... but really? speed metal does not compare to cynics progression, at all.
Theart works for them...not too many power metal singers play an instrument. The demands that power metal places on a vocalist, usually require that the guy had been singing pretty much his whole life...usually guys like that don't pick up an instrument. So you're saying if you can't play guitar (or Bass I suppose) and sing at the same time you don't have skills? Well then I guess Chris Cornell, Bruce Dickinson, and Rob Halford don't have skills then.
dude, i hate dragonforce but what you are saying is complete bullshit! im sorry but dragonforce is way harder to play than this, i learned to play this song in like a week and a half and had it down in about 2/3 weeks perfect. even if they suck im pretty sure dragonforce would take longer to learn and is harder
I love how people dont know if to headbang or just stand and listen in awe.
why the fuck compare dragonforce to cynic?
dragonforce is sport, cynic is true music. enough said.
Saw them in Clifton Park NY on this tour. Got a picture with Masvidal, hugged Reinert, left before the wannabe powermetal headache.
they're not comparing them, they were just part of the same tour, but totally agree :P

Precioso!!!
Awesome.

Cynic without Malone is a criminal offense
dragon force may be good muscians individually, but together, their is too many egos competing for supremecy, not a good sound.
in my himble opinion people really don't know dog feces about music if they think that cynic is in any way similar to dragonforce.
And just dont forget Theart, what instrument does he play?

2009 and they have axe fxs!!! (i think)

Kinda apples and oranges, Mackintosh's job in The Force is mainly to keep up with Herman and Sam, same with Fred's job too.
@naca47 sorry but whos DF
note the percussion work of DF compared to cynic.. does df even have mentionable drum/bass work?
their percussion section has the creative capacity of motor-boating goat cock.

i like DF... but really?

how does this remind anyone of DF (dragonforce or dying fetus)?
@Madhouse255 i was about to say the same thing. i think studio force was headlining too. thats some bullshit.
@Madhouse255 Because ppl are too ignorant to understand musical genius when they hear it.
not such a new record anymore, since its a 2 year old cult classic and all
Tommy go home! you're drunk

Dragonforce??pfffff....
better get off that high horse, if you put Traced In Air up against Dragonforce's newest album DF definitely wins
fuck you lahey
