DragonForce - New Speed Metal Album


I've been a fan of Speed Metal before the term was even coined. Back in the day I loved, "7 and 7 is" by Love, "Journey to the Center of your Mind" by The Amboy Dukes, "Communication Breakdown" by Led Zeppelin, and "Set Me Free" by Sweet. Anything loud and fast was what I sought out. Then The Ramones fit the bill for me, followed by British Metal bands like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. When Speed and Thrash Metal hit, I was listening to early Metallica, Exodus, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax.

As fast as those bands were, I was still blown away the first time I heard "Through the Fire and the Flames" by British Extreme Power Metal kings, DragonForce. I first thought they must have sped it up in the studio - no one could play That Fast! But I've spoken to people who have seen them Live, and the word is, they do indeed shred at the speed of Light! The video for that manic metal masterpiece hit YouTube at the end of 2006 and now has over 62 Million views. If you never saw it, I put it below for your Metal enjoyment!

But first, here is the NEW song from DragonForce! Maximum Overload will be the name of DragonForce's sixth studio release, due out in a few weeks. The first single is The Game, shown below. These guys have not slowed down! They still play some of the fastest songs I've ever heard! Uploaded to YouTube on June 18th, this video is approaching a half Million views. Of special interest - the word is that DragonForce cover the Johnny Cash classic, Ring of Fire, on this recording; that should be interesting! Long Live Speed Metal; Long live DragonForce! \m/

News Videos, New Faces


Here are a few videos that related by the tag News or New. Either they provide news or showcase a new face on YouTube. So here's some of what's new on YouTube:

Pure Madness

Here's some interesting NEWS! TheHill88, from Australia, is visiting Boh3m3, in Alabama. Caitlin and Ben sure look happy! Is it just two YouTube friends meeting up for a friendly visit? Watch all the way to the end and you'll have your answer!


If you can't see the video above, watch it on YouTube.


Introduction

I watched some of those San Fran Gathering videos and saw an interesting New face that I did not recognize. After a little research, I found out that the attractive woman I saw makes videos under the name of theslyestfox. Callianne is 23 and lives in Canada. She has been making videos since she was 14. Watch her intro video and then check out the rest of her work!

Vlog 2
The always charming and entertaining Angharad John from Wales, a.k.a. Darahgna, is now doing video blogs under the screen name of AngylionAngharad. This is the second one she did (first one is here), and it contains the News that she is taking a one month hiatus from the internet. All of her fans are missing her already!

Kenny The Snowman ... Down-under
Speaking of Angharad's fans, here is the first video from IgnatiusJones, a 49 year old New Zealander. He tries to copy Angharad by making his own snowman named Kenny (for me!). But the weather isn't quite the same down there as it is up in the Northern hemisphere. Watch what happens! Welcome to YouTube, my New friend. =D
