LYRICS
On a cold dark winter night, hidden by a stormy light
A battle rages for the right, for what will become
In the valley of the damned, a warrior with sword in hand
He travels fast across the land, for freedom he rides
And the sign from the master on high
He screams aloud and across hear the cry
For the kingdom of fire and ice
And the power to be alive
Be strong ride on, carry on through the war
Come along carry on, living for ever more
On the wings of death, by the hands of doom
By the darkest light from the darkest moon
Crossing silent seas, over mountains high
For we stand as one tonight
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will call us
Heâll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
In the valley of the damned
Day breaks with golden strand
Over pastures green it glows
To where night returns
In the shadows faces appear
Warriors wearing full metal gear
Join together one and all before the glorious light
Rise up, gather âround, come and hear what is said
Use your senses open your mind donât you ever forget
On the wings of life, by the hands of hope
By the brightest light from the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
To the valley of the damned!
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will call us
Heâll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
Solos - Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will call us
Heâll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine overâŠ
The black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will call us
Heâll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the lightâŠ
Solo: Herman - Hudba
We are re-releasing all our songs here on youtube in high quality uncompressed audio with lyrics. Let us know what you think of each songs. Thanks!
yall are awesome!!!
All of them are absolutely amazing. My favorite band ever
Used to blast this on my IPod back then . Brings back memories of skating and high school
Sounds amazing! This song is such a banger.
Can you upload the missing songs for the dvd in Japan too?
Would be great.
Thanks.
People might say Through the Fire and the Flames is the anthem of DragonForce, but I say Valley of the Damned is the true anthem.
I can't agree with you more! TTFAF blew my mind when I first heard it, but this song is arguably more representative of the band as a whole.
This. It's THE Dragonforce song
Couldn't agree with you more Andrew!! TTFAF is I guess the most well known around the world, but as you say, Valley is the definition of a true anthem! It's certainly the first track that comes to my mind when I think Dragonforce! x đđŁđ„đ€đ€đžđ„đ¶đ€
Totally agree with this. LOVE this tune.
im torn between this and soldiers of the wasteland but agreed nonetheless lol
Marc is a great singer, i really like him, but Z.P. Theart's voice is the most iconic one for Dragonforce (in my opinion)
Agreed. Marc is a great singer in his own right, but his voice is more generic. ZP has a very unique voice that is both raspy and melodic, which gives him a better emotional range. It's a shame he hasn't done anything interesting after Dragonforce. His hard-rock band I Am I didn't really go anywhere after their mediocre first album. He also did an album called Valley of Tears with a band called Tank. It has a couple of decent songs, but overall I feel that ZP's talents are wasted in these relatively unknown bands when he made a name for himself in such a big band as Dragonforce. I really hope he will come back to the power metal scene at some point.
But this 2010 remaster came out before ZP left the band, so it's still him singing this
@@GuitarHeroRocks99 We know. That's why we're reminiscing about what a good singer he was.
Agreed, Marc is fantastic, ZP has that voice that reminds me of childhood :)
It's a shame that his voice was as good live. If that weren't the case, the band might look different now.
Got into DragonForce in high school 10 years ago. One of my favorite DragonForce songs back then, and still is today!
For me, it has been 9 years since I got into DragonForce. I was in 7th grade when I discovered and fell in love with their music.
I got into them in high school (longer than 10yr tho!) and my gf at the time gave me this album on CD when she realized it was the only one I didnât have. Very considerate and one of the nicest gifts Iâve gotten. No occasion, just âhere ya goâ
thats awesome. Same for me, but high school was 15 year ago!
I heard this when it came out in 2003, but it still blew me away even though I had already listened to a lot of power metal.
I also got I to them in high school... 20yrs ago lol
This is an amazing cover of Gary George. I remember when Gary George first released Valley of the Damned in 1995, it was the song of the summer!
I'm here just to see this comment... đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
On the wings of life, by the hands of hope
By the brightest light from the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas, over mountains high
To the valley of the damned! đ€
Wow, what a banger!
6:11 the vocal and the melodies are amazing
I love is a part đ€©
That outro is honestly one of the finest moments in all of power metal! If one sound clip could be played to anyone to show them what power metal instrumentation is all about it should be those last two minutes.
This ending solo.
I heard this solo for the first time about 2010 and after listening so many bands/songs, it's still one of my fav guitar solo. Narration. Emotions.
Guys, I started play guitar because of DragonForce and solo like this.
WHEN YOU FUCKING SEE IT
727!!!!
What do I think? Simply that this is infact the greatest song ever made. I know everyone thinks Through the Fire and Flames when people think of you guys, but this song specifically is a true masterpiece. There is absolutely nothing like it. Aside from the culture in our country leading to depreciate of quality music like this. Unfortunately as we all know, rap and hip hop and certain other music has taken over. But if that wasn't the case and if we could go back to when rock prevailed as the primary music our culture, this song would be hailed as greatest of all time. If this song was released in say, the 1980's your band would be in the same popularity realm as GNR, queen, the Beatles, bands that are in a league of their own that is impossible to recreate the magic. This song should be played in stadiums during sporting events. I love at least 80 percent of your music, new and old. But this song is one of the gems that escalate the definition of perfection. When you play you feel the energy like nothing else. My father, in his 80'$ before he past was a rock enthusiast, he loves one things more than his own kids and that a guitar solo, he lived and breathed guitar solos. When I shown him this song, he couldn't believe it, I've never seen him smile any harder and he referred to it as the greatest in the main song solo of all time. So guys, my dad was my best friend and everything to me. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for bonding me closer to him and having some of the most memorable times I've ever had. Your creativity truly made our life better and our connection stronger than ever. Thank you.
WE'RE SUBMITING 1500PP WITH THIS ONEđ„đ„đ„
Valley of the Damned is such a gem of a song. The album is also an instant classic and timeless in every way!
I cried the first time I heard this song live, over the course of 20ish years I heard this song at so many different stages of life. It was beautiful
When I discovered DragonForce with TTFAF, I wanted to listen to their discography and started with this album. My teenage brain exploded listening to these first tracks, and I was bonded with the band for the rest of my life. I keep DF deep in my heart!
One thing I like to say is about their lyrics having something magical... The only thing people say is that it appears to be taken off some anime opening/ending... Yeah, they do (lol), but no one ever talks about their metaphors and the way they say things. I love it so much and never found any other band that did even similar. đ
@@gabbygator1637 It is for sure! Like Helloween says in the Walls of Jericho: heavy metal is the law that keep we all united and free... :)
First time hearing DragonForce...damn this song gave me the chills.
I remember discovering this song back when you called yourselves "Dragonheart". This is still one of my favorites. I see lots of comments about "being teenagers". I was 30 when I first heard this. I am 52 now and still love to listen to Dragonforce. I just checked my Winamp playlist and I still have this song listed as "Dragonheart" Talk about a throwback.
I vividly remember it was Dragonheart on the album cover. But I thought I was having a Mandela effect episode.
I believe this song has the best outro of any of their songs. Its such an amazing ending to a song.
Fully agree! One of my all time favorite guitar passages. So melodic and emotive.
Hearing this outro for the first time as a teenager always gave me goosebumps. So epic!
Agreed
Agreed..Always
judgement day is second imo
Heroes of Our Time also has a very good outro.
I still remember the good old time when this song was offered as a free mp3 on the official website. Of course it wasn't the remixed and remastered version back then.
Actually, many bands offered a few free songs on their websites to give new people a taste of their music and stuff, but nowadays that's not necessary anymore because of CZcams, Spotify etc.
Dragonforce was the reason I love and live through Power Metal! Been listening to them since their Demo Album DragonHeart.
You didn't get back to me after I sent the shipping fee... whats up?
we bouta get a 1500 pp play with this one
3:37 and that kids, is exactly when i fell in love with metal
One of the best songs DF has released thus far, and one of my all time favorites.
This is a raid boss song
Valley of The Dammed is so amazing. The whole album, especially this insane song. That opening riff is such ahhhhhh!
Honestly wasnât expecting the high quality version to sound so high quality, I I didnât think they could sound better than they already did
AkoliGoat
This, amongst other Dragonforce songs bring me back to 2006-2007, I just got into WoW and I discovered this band. I miss those simpler times..
Wow classic
Same here mate...
Burning crusade
This song took power metal to another level and it's still their best to this day.
Entah di mana kaset pita saya ini, dulu selalu dengar lagu lagu album ini, valley of the damned dan disciple of babylon lagu yang selalu saya nyanyikan saat bermain band dengan teman sekolah đ€
Waktu mungkin takkan kembali , tapi ingatan selalu tersimpan, dan saat ini saya hanya tersenyum mengingat itu semua
Salam dari indonesia đźđ©
Salam dari Surabaya bosss
SAVE VALLEY OF THE DAMNED
The change in the pre-chorus from "On the wings of death by the hands of doom, by the darkest light from the darkest moon" to "On the wings of life, by the hands of hope, by the brightest light from the brightest sun", is amazing.
I just don't have the words, but is the only way that they can add more emocion to an already very emocional pre-chorus. Is very good musical resource.
Discovered this so long ago, as I was waiting impatiently for the official album of the group whose demo I enjoyed very much, called Dragonheart. I still remember it clearly. It happened on a Black Winter Night, when Revelations were shown to me in the Black Fire, as my Heart was beating like the one of the Dragon, and Evening Star was spewing Starfire. Yes, it happened in Babylon and I immediately became its Disciple, invoking Apocalyptic Evil.
there's no way CZcams gonna remove this without any goddamn proof of copyright and just claiming some random dude
youâd be surprised
Its definitely possible. CZcams copyright system is hot garbage
One of the best Dragonforce albums!
yeah
The ending solo is my favourite thing in the world
Valley of the Damned should be recognized as Dragonforceâs most legendary song. Fire and flames good, but this song is amazement and bliss. The ending instrumentals are fucking beautiful too.
I still think this is one of their best songs vocally, it just hits different
This brings back all the memories.đ„Č Damn!đ„Č My friends were never as passionate as I was though. Had they support me, or pushed as hard on music as I did, we could have been touring now. But they went for higher studies, which is good actually. One of them pursuing PhD and the other preparing for exams. And I'm here, still giving guitar lessons and pursuing Masters in Indian music (Hindustani) doing few gigs if some singers hires me. đ„Č And all those songs composed back then, about 50 songs just lying in my head. DF and Firehouse were our good to bands when ever we gathered. đđ€đżđ€đżđ€đżđ€đż
This is still my favorite power metal song of all time bar none
Man, I've not heard this song in a second. The nostalgia hits hard.
This was the DF I enjoyed listening to so much and avoiding moving my hair was impossible.
They are no longer the sameđđ
I love how DragonForce makes Canon in D sound in this chorus. This is what I hear whenever I'm at a wedding and Pachelbel's version comes on. I grin, no one notices, and everybody wins.
akolibed the goat and WYSI!!!!
this track has the greatest solo of all band songs imo, it's so powerful man
Iâm listening to this one last time before the takedown
This brings back so many memories. I remember listening to this back after I got into DragonForce 12-14 years ago. Sounds really good, still!
God I fucking love this band. They give me a feeling that no other band gives.
Haven't heard this song in a while but I've heard it so often before that I still remember every bit. I love this song.
1.5x speed at 6:00 to deathstream 300 BPM
This is one of my all time favorite songs, and top 3 in my Dragonforce favorite songs. Love it.
This has always been my all-time favorite song!
This song sounded absolutely amazing live! I saw Dragonforce in Baltimore this past April and that show kicked so much ass!! Please come back soon, guys.
It all began with this. I'll always love your music now and forever more.
I'll never forget the emotions this song induced in me
Love it! This is one of my favorite songs of all time and I am glad they are re-uploading them with better quality
The song that hooked me on this band. Legendary
At first, was the guitar solos and riffs, but each time I get that chilling feeling of the drums, the bass, and as always the voice with those fantastical lyrics, love your work so much, you guys!! đ€đ„°
my best 3 DF songs
Valley of the Dammed
Through the Fire and Flames
Seasons (both versions)
CZcams needs to be better at copyright, gonna watch this before it gets taken down.
Iâm loving the tunes, @DragonForce! Itâs nice to hear these bangers again in uncompressed high quality. Iâve been a fan since around 2007 and have since went through your entire discography. Rock on.
đ€đ»đđ€đ»
This one is called: VALLEY OF THE DAMNEEEEEEDđ€
THE VIDEO LENGTH WYSI
Thank you for doing this. This is easily one of my favorite songs just in general. Fantastic job.
This is honestly so great, because most of the VotD stuff on CZcams is just a bunch of crummy mp3 rips that sound like they're being played at the bottom of a well
3:37 20 years on, can't express how much I like this song the most, especially with this face melting solo
Man I can't believe I have been listening to you guys for 20 years now already, time sure flies.
A classic of the Power Metalđđ»
7:27 long song, legendary pp record, just need a 300 bpm version of the song đđ
This was the very first Dragonforce song I ever heard , of course was instant love , love at first sight
i actually love this song in every way, that's a massive hit
ALL TIME BEST GUITAR SOLO EVER. its so epic . this is my all time favourite df song. Its a freakin masterpiece.
YEAH!!! I'm one of the 14 people who heard of Dragonforce before guitar hero. It's been a while since I heard this. Bloody brilliant.
It's really strange what kind of music you grew up listening to to create such a cool song. When I first listened to it, I remember laughing and crying with joy because the performance and melody that seemed to have everything I wanted to do and the long and intense guitar solo that I had never heard before were so cool.
I love it.

Timeless and priceless classic
Clearly one of the most iconic DragonForce songs!
Yooo you finally added the Invocation intro!! I dig it!!
excellent just when yesterday i begun to learn this track. thank you for that !!!
Need to see them live again soon. Such a great show
Pls Dragonforce, we need a MV for this song!! đ€
Great song, brings me me back to when I first listened to this band, keep it up guys
Desde los 8 años escuchĂĄndolos, son grandiosos! â€â€âđ„đ„đ„
Amazing song, love it đžđ
one of my favorite songs of all time, AMAZING guitar solos
I love the melody of this song..... I feel like this song also fits with an ace combat mission involving destroying ground targets on a valley before engaging an ace squadron.
Been listening since GH3 showed me DragonForce. Man it's been a long time. Thanks for still making music
Great show in Mesa, AZ last night! Excellent support from Amaranthe and Edge of Paradise as well...
Thanks for coming!!
Love this one. One of my favorite song and I can't wait to see it live again in Swedenđ€đđ€
5:13 Best part of the masterpiece of a guitar solo by far
One of the first songs that got me into metal, i love it!
I used to play this game on PS2 called Phantasy Star, I was in this clan and I'd play this song whenever we were fighting a "raid" boss.
That was 20 years ago and I still think about those guys when I listen to this song.
Videogame Metal of the HIGHEST caliber.
first DF song I heard, back then this was power metal like you've never heard before! And it still is I think.
The Guitar solo at the end is EPIC
This is beyond awesome! Thank you..
âŠ. Next topic⊠when does the new album drop?
Glad to see you got that copyright
crap resolved, seriously WTH?
Dragonforce is their own best tribute band.
Nice, I only heard this song on the live album from the gig in tokyo so far đ€
Fantastic song, this album is awesomeđ€đ€
My personal favorite DragonForce song. Would love to have this album on vinyl!
Zp theart cuando la banda se llamaba Dragonheart??
Me gustaba mucho esta versiĂłn de las guitarras y las voces!!!
Aunque ahora Marc Hudson también es un Genio!
Saludos Dragonforce desde Mendoza-ARGENTINA
