The best part is that there's no way to reproduce the Official Studio version. The "guitar scratch" at the very end was Herman's E-string snapping mid-note! The producer liked the effect so much they kept it.

The Devil went down to Georgia was the actual final boss battle in GH3. A guitarist by the name of Steve Ouimette made a hard rock/heavy metal version of the song in which the the fiddle parts of the song or played using an electric guitar. Y’all should look up the GH3 final boss battle. DragonForce Through the Fire and Flames was DLC but was indeed the hardest song to beat and Xbox 360 had an achievement for beating it on expert called The Inhuman Achievement.

Herman Li, the lead guitarist for DragonForce, is a GOD. He's also a good content creator, in the online space. He streams, and uploads a bunch of stuff here on KZhead, usually on the official DragonForce channel. Edit: also for the Guitar Hero parts, the fast notes are really impressive, of course. But as someone that played a ton back in the day, the most impressive part is being able to hit the slow notes. You can muscle memory and zone in on the fast stuff, it's hard to lock on the slow stuff.

Thing is, guys, the "official video" doesn't even have the whole studio solo! If I recall, there was a second part of the solo that wasn't included -- making the whole song at least 7:30 long. And guys, check out Tina S playing this on guitar! She's a freakin' monster on lead! Edit: In case y'all were wondering, how someone gets that good is hundreds, if not thousands of hours of practice, as well as insane pattern recognition. Trust and believe, someone that good? They ain't just gonna pick up GH III and make no mistakes. That dude spent _a lot_ of time playing that game.

It always made me smile when rapping FAST started to be one of the ways you measured someone's talent, because we did the same thing with guitar, bass, and drums in the 80s with heavy metal. It was understood that this stuff was hard to play really well, with so many roots in classical music, and if you wanted to really show off, you got yourself able to play really difficult stuff faster than anyone else. Game recognize game, it was the same back then.

Then it died and I hadn't played it for like 8+ years, had a conversation about old games and trends, remembered Guitar Hero and got nostalgic, learned that Clone Hero was a thing and it was popular and growing right now (about 3-4 years ago) and still going strong today. Discovered channels like Acai, UKOGmonkey, JasonParadise, randyladyman. "Through The Fire And Flames" is warmup compare to how insanely difficult songs exists now. Add overcharts, mod charts and so on. They havn't seen anything yet 😈 I play Clone Hero everyday now at 31, and I'm better now than I ever was when I was like 16 and played Guitar Hero religiously.

Having played Guitar Hero 3, I'd say that if you're counting across all difficulty levels (and most people wouldn't), "Raining Blood" actually beats out "Through the Fire and Flames" due to having a less dense but also less predictable pattern. (Also, the first time I played the latter was over the ending credit sequence, where you aren't scored and can't lose, so it just feels epic no matter how bad you are and that feeling kind of carried over to when you can play it normally.)

Congrats, you have unlocked Level 2. You're now ready for Tina S.'s cover. Can't wait to watch you leaving the room and coming back in sheer disbelief...
The best part is that there's no way to reproduce the Official Studio version. The "guitar scratch" at the very end was Herman's E-string snapping mid-note! The producer liked the effect so much they kept it.
A pair of wire cutters should do the trick

I never knew that, but it's awesome an metal as fuck
@@timd2789 true IF you knew exactly when and at what angle it snapped at
Guitar hero III memories. My fingers are suddenly sweating again
Catchin pinky cramps XD
My fingers didn’t really get sweaty but my head would suddenly start itching during a good run 😂
@@philsmith2606 Fucking woooooord up.
Guitar hero 2
For some reason, when I read the title of the video, I thought it said Guitar Hero's fastest rock song.... lol.
I've seen DragonForce live. These guys are fire. They put on hell of a show.
Imagine being a guitar or drum tech for this band. A single show must put a decade's worth of wear and tear on the equipment.
@@andyb1653 I suddenly thought of the aftermath of 2CELLOS - Thunderstruck. Rofl
Me too n it gave me neck sore by headbangin too hard n fast 🤣
you have no idea how much hell they put into it XD. They sound awesome.
Just saw them last night. It was a freaking awesome show.
The face when the guitars melt your brain lol priceless. Love this song
I legitimately love how respectful you are of things you have never seen nor heard before. You guys are class acts
The Devil went down to Georgia was the actual final boss battle in GH3. A guitarist by the name of Steve Ouimette made a hard rock/heavy metal version of the song in which the the fiddle parts of the song or played using an electric guitar. Y’all should look up the GH3 final boss battle. DragonForce Through the Fire and Flames was DLC but was indeed the hardest song to beat and Xbox 360 had an achievement for beating it on expert called The Inhuman Achievement.
Ah after the album it was on then huh? Inhuman Rampage was the name of the album
not only was it a DLC song but you got to sample it for yourself in the end credits after defeating the final boss. all in all I miss the golden age of Guitar Hero games where when you beat the game you were given the option to play along with the end credits song while the end credits were rolling.
There were no DLCs back in the day it was the "encore" song, it was the song after the boss battle, the guitarist played atop of a mountain of amps and stuff.
Thanks for unlocking a core memory 🤙🏽 Lmaoo
Def not dlc, neither of those songs are in the dlc list, it was always at the bottom of the main song list, Trust me I spent countless hours trying to beat that song, good times.. good times
I saw them in concert when this song was current and they were better live. Watching their fingers move in person was unreal.
I wish I could have seen this live. My face would be melting from the cheap seats.
Check a band called Archspire if you have. They play just as fast or even faster. Love this band tho
Alestorm opened for them back in '06 in Amsterdam, that show was crazy good
They're still pretty great live. It's just the singing that might seem off at times at this point, but even then, Marc is still fine. I never witnessed them back then, but the Horrors of Grasspop '09 are long gone
Same here bro! They did Fury of the storm and Through the fire and flames when I went and it was unreal!
you should 100% listen to this live. the energy is insaneeee. most videos are with their new vocalist though not the original who sang in this song
If they want a live reaction they should do Fury of the storm cause the pan the camera away in the solos in fire and flames live, but fury of the storm you see it all and it’s epic
5:34 bien ahí, los solos nunca se interrumpen, se merece mi like 👍
I don't speak spanish but I got that perfectly lmao
Love that this is happening, lost in guitar hero lore but still one of the more impressive songs I’ve heard in my time
Junna does an amazing drum cover of this song. She's a Japanese drummer
Just getting ready to say this. Just remember, no matter how good you are at something, somewhere there's a 12-year-old Japanese kid that can do it better. lol
@@ericbailey6779 yea she does look 12 lol think she was 25 when she did it
She’s my favorite cover of this and even Gee loved it! They should react to that one!
Hell yes! She's phenomenal!
I was going to comment about her and her drum cover, it’s amazing
I'd love to see you guys react to Nightwish - Ghost Love Score live at Wacken. They are a symphonic metal band and is definitely something different than other metal you reacted to. Also, I love that you guys threw in the Guitar Hero version as well.
Yes!!! Nightwish is my absolute favorite! I have asked them a few times to check out Nightwish... maybe they will soon since I see several people mentioning them. 🤩🤩🤩
Jinjer-Pisces
@@charlesbryson7443 Baby Metal - Road to Resistance since Dragon force help with the music composition i think The HU - Wolf Totem
Night wish is the goat
Yeah, summon the Nightwish Army...
Playing in Guitar Hero hurt me fucking fingers to hell and back and I still never finished the whole track. But the lyrics to this song is still so dear to my heart, whenever I feel like I’m up against a hard thing in life I start humming this song.
I finished it. It wasn't a good score though😅 but I passed by the skin of my teeth
Definitely one of the best tracks to review for reaction to insane guitar skills.. I'm looking forward to the day you guys discover Nightwish and see Floor's completely INSANE vocal range. . . "Ghost Love Score" is one of the best with a killer ending. 🤘🎸😁
Herman Li, the lead guitarist for DragonForce, is a GOD. He's also a good content creator, in the online space. He streams, and uploads a bunch of stuff here on KZhead, usually on the official DragonForce channel. Edit: also for the Guitar Hero parts, the fast notes are really impressive, of course. But as someone that played a ton back in the day, the most impressive part is being able to hit the slow notes. You can muscle memory and zone in on the fast stuff, it's hard to lock on the slow stuff.
Thing is, guys, the "official video" doesn't even have the whole studio solo! If I recall, there was a second part of the solo that wasn't included -- making the whole song at least 7:30 long. And guys, check out Tina S playing this on guitar! She's a freakin' monster on lead! Edit: In case y'all were wondering, how someone gets that good is hundreds, if not thousands of hours of practice, as well as insane pattern recognition. Trust and believe, someone that good? They ain't just gonna pick up GH III and make no mistakes. That dude spent _a lot_ of time playing that game.
Exactly. Me and my friends could all do it on expert, but it was only because we were competitive with eachother and as soon as one could do it on hard, another had to try outdo them by doing it on expert, then another had to get a higher score, etc. ALLL summer long playing the same song over and over just to get better at it than our friends. And if you couldn't beat them at one song you just mastered another and challenged them on that lol.
It always made me smile when rapping FAST started to be one of the ways you measured someone's talent, because we did the same thing with guitar, bass, and drums in the 80s with heavy metal. It was understood that this stuff was hard to play really well, with so many roots in classical music, and if you wanted to really show off, you got yourself able to play really difficult stuff faster than anyone else. Game recognize game, it was the same back then.
Always gunna be like that. It will always be more difficult to do music faster rather than slower, and people appreciate difficulty not ease.
@@colecampbell1906 nah man slow is hard. It's hard to play fast but there is room for error. Playing slow is difficult for different reasons
I went to two of their concerts with this lineup on their Fire and the Flames tour. It was the most insane concert, spent the entire time in the wildest mosh pit I have ever experienced - especially with this song. Also the Guitar hero version is the full song- the actual clip (for some weird reason) was cut right back.
Guitar Hero was my shit, I had them all. Then it died and I hadn't played it for like 8+ years, had a conversation about old games and trends, remembered Guitar Hero and got nostalgic, learned that Clone Hero was a thing and it was popular and growing right now (about 3-4 years ago) and still going strong today. Discovered channels like Acai, UKOGmonkey, JasonParadise, randyladyman. "Through The Fire And Flames" is warmup compare to how insanely difficult songs exists now. Add overcharts, mod charts and so on. They havn't seen anything yet 😈 I play Clone Hero everyday now at 31, and I'm better now than I ever was when I was like 16 and played Guitar Hero religiously. Like I went from struggling hitting 3-5 notes consecutively to comfortable at expert over summer break (ca 9 weeks here) :P
I love guitar hero. I am going to look for clone hero.
I played drums recreationally and had a dumb little band in middle/high school… I’m now 21 and play drums on Clone Hero and this on drums is still hellacious
There goes my reason to comment
I have been forged in the fires of Jordan on the ps2 version of gh2 since I was 4 (not an exaggeration) and yet i cant beat gh3 on expert. I'm 19 now.
HOW DID I MISS THIS VIDEO!!!!!! This was great. My buddy played this on Guitar Hero in college and nailed the 100%. We all got together with some beers and watched him for like 3 hours until he hit it hahahaha
You guys are GREAT!!! Thanks for this reaction. I am seeing DragonForce in concert, Dallas, TX, next week!!! So excited!!!❤
I remember seeing them at OzzFest, I think they where after Chevelle so it was some time ago and when they started ripping everyone in the crowd was just standing in place looking at the stage. In concert, it is unreal how fast these dudes are. It was forever ago but I still can see it plan as day. Incredible musicians
You have to react to the GOAT now: Tina S. She has a cover of this that even blew away the lead guitarist Herman Li. Her cover of Beethoven Moonlight Sonata is her best. Her version of For the Love of God is also amazing.
I think what's crazy about Tina S cover is that the guitar solo in this song was DUELING guitars, both Herman Li and Sam Totman, but the track she got had both guitar solos going simultaneously, so she sort of did both parts of the solo BY HERSELF on her one guitar.
I don't listen to much Dragonforce anymore, but I still listen to "Soldiers of a Wasteland." The Bridge/Solo is one of the best guitar pieces I've ever listened to.
As much as I love the whole band, it's just not the same with the new singer 😥
Agreed, I was always a fan of Soldiers of the Wasteland and Valley of the Damned. But I enjoy a lot of their earlier songs with the original singer.
Also agree with you about that bridge! I've always wondered how many other people loved it as much as I did. Just something about it that makes me feel like I'm powering up or something like that lol. And I don't know why, but for some reason the very first time (and every following time) I heard that guitar part, I created this whole epic scene in my head of a marshal/cowboy on horseback riding all alone through the dry desert wasteland on a mission to seek revenge or something lol. Also, it was like an epic 80's/90's movie style montage scene 😂🤷🏻♂
Soldiers of the Wasteland and Revolution Deathsquad for me
My favorite is Scars of Yesterday and E.P.M
This song always hypes me up! Such an amazing drummer and guitarist. My idols. 🤘🏽
The best guitar cover of this is from Tina S, and she was 16yr at the time. Your minds will be blown.
She was only 15 when it was recorded by her guitar instructor. She turned 16 a couple months later.
Need to watch Tina S at the age 14 rip this song playing along with the Guitar Hero version. You will not believe it!!
Your reactions had me laughing so hard. Starting out headbanging and by the time you were halfway through the song, everyone was just still, staring at the screen with that "wtf is happenning" look lol.
I saw them live a few years ago..freaking amazing
You guys need to start your Slayer journey!
fr
I don't see them liking slayer, especially anything off of Deciple
Archspire is crazy 🤣🤣
Oh wow I just requested this last night!! Thanks so much!
Junna drum cover of this song is insanely perfect!!!!
30 years old and I still play guitar hero to this day! 🤘🏻
I suggested this band and song to you a while back and I missed that finally did it. So glad you did. The guitar is crazy. But what about that 10 mile run the drummer did. Wow.
Yes!!! You guys are tasting metal! \m/ I saw Dragonforce years ago in Fort Worth: they play just as fast while deeply imbibing. It was impressive! Metal!!
i got a similar reply from cf.. are they real replies?
@@mustachefannypack1100 I don't think so. Common with popular channels. BOTs?
React to Tina S playing this and other crazy guitar solos. She's amazing.
Dragonforce is crazy good.....but if you liked the speed "Power Metal" type of music like this then I can highly recommend checking out Unleash the Archers. A couple good songs to look into are Awakening and Tonight We Ride. Love the reaction guys! Keep it up!
I love Unleash the archers
One of the greatest guitar solos ever.
Yes the drumming in this song is nuts as well if you wanna see how nuts I'd suggest checking out Junna and her drumming cover of the song legitimately certified as the drummer from dragon force's favourite drum cover of the song
Y’all’s faces are priceless haha combination of “what”, “ew”, ((shock)), (squinty), and disbelief. Lol love it do more song reactions!!! Do Elvis lol
I love this band Every time I listen to it my heart races these guys are amazing
you guys have to experience Babymeta - Road of Resistance (Live in Japan) ... guitar parts are created by Herman Li from Dragon Force. Incredible live perfomance by the japanese band called BabyMetal. Babymetal is composed by 3 young japanese girls and a freaking band called "Kami band" who is mixing power metal and j-pop music. i'm sure that you are not ready for what you're about to see. Clearly one of the best experience in my entire life is watching this video. you have to react on this one
I second agreed to this one of their best performance Best live band ever 🦊🤘🔥
I requested this months ago I'm so glad you reacted to DF 🔥🤘
This was my fav song to play on guitar heroes!! Ahh the nostalgia lol your guys reaction has be laughing hard
My favorite white noise..i put my child sleep with this.
Fun fact: this song is from the perspective of the demons who go out to battle God’s armies. The demons are tired of fighting and long for victory and peace while watching humans burn in hell. Nice song indeed.
You guys gotta check out Pantera again. Mouth for War is a good representation of their style (groove metal). Its mid-tempo metal with some swing to it but its still heavy
Groove metal these days is 1000x better than Pantera and Pantera doesn't even sound groovy relative to the current genre. Nor are they heavy like at all in the current day.
Trolling hard huh? 😂
@@derpderpin1568 oh ok buddy 😂
@@derpderpin1568 Objectively not true.
My favorite Wii game will always be Starwars the Force Unleashed games. You swung the controller to swing the lightsaber, punched with the nunchuk to force push, had lightning and choke abilities, it was incredible
My dude in the back framed by the Kill Bill poster has such a satisfied expression on his face. Dud is FEELING the music.
Sudden death by megadeth on guitar hero warriors of rock is crazy, dave mustane wrote that song for the game
You guys adopt our stuff, well adopt yours, there is no appropriation, we already appreciate each other. This channel has done more to fight racism than any politician in our generation. Rock on cartier Family
What you are hearing in the game is the full version and it fucking stinks of greatness.
Appreciate you not pausing bro💪
Yall should see them live xD I've seen them 3 times live and they sound the exact same as there recording, amazing show.
Your faces while listening are fantastic - have no idea what you are thinking!
Nice to find a channel that has variety of quality content, keep it up bros! Also if you want to be mindblown look out for band called Nightwish and floor jansen , you wont regret it!
This song i remember from guitar hero it always makes me tear up when I hear this amazing masterpiece of a song.
Take me back to the 5 yr old mw headbanging of this masterpiece🤘
oh i loved playing this song on guitar hero back in middle school in like 2006, i'm 31 now damn. this song was the last one to play on the game like a final boss.
And that's how you become a DragonForce fan!
Watch the version by "Tina S", she plays both guitar parts, at the age of 15!
I remember the first time I ever completed this song on Guitar Hero and felt like the sky was the limit. Love this song and love guitar hero.
Bros, let me tell you what the difference between every other video and this one was. Y’all had so much respect for the level of musical talent that you didn’t dare pause the utter chaos coming through your ears. I literally aced this ONE TIME on Guitar Hero 2 and it took me about four months and three guitar controllers. It is absolutely nuts.
This song is amazing. The instrumental skill is undeniable but the lyrics are incredible. A true poem brought to song. Read them on their own, sometime.
If you played Guitar hero this song was dancing in your nightmares. Amazing song but hard as hell to play on the toughest setting, at least for me.
This is my childhood in guitar hero 3 back in middle school great times.
I was waiting for this song for so long.
The first time I heard this song I remember being in middle school when it came out and I remember being big and Iron Maiden at the time and I remember when I first heard the song I didn't think much of it at first but then it got to Herman leaves the trading off back-to-back guitar solos and I was sold instantly love your reaction guys and definitely recommend you check out some Iron Maiden for sure songs like Where Eagles Dare the trooper and Run to the Hills will melt your mind
Expanding my knowledge and culture, awesome 👌
Played GH a lot...also have DJ Hero...that game had some great mixes...I still play both pretty often
My man in the grey hoodie smiling like he just fell in love. I should learn his name, he's my favourite of the bunch. Always good vibes.
"heroes of our time" is my personal favorite song of theirs. check it out sometimes
You gotta see their live performances (the more recent ones lol). Props to them and especially the drummer Gee because they play like this for hours live
I still play clone hero today man it’s still a ton of fun especially with so many custom songs now
Great album. Gotta listen from start to finish.
Misfits - Last Caress, Astro Zombies or Hybrid Moments 🤝🏻
I don't know if they were ever on Guitar Hero, but a group you should definitely check out is Beast in Black. Their song "Blind and Frozen" is jaw-dropping.
I love the right guy's constant expression of awe and "the fck is even happening here?" :D
Now that you guys have become fairly well accustomed to rock music please react to : Jinjer Pisces
In case anyone missed it like Cartier family did in the vid 5:08 the sound he makes on his guitar sounds exactly like pac man eating pellets around the maze. Dragonforce are well known for making unique guitar sounds including a reving car engine and many other video game references
Devil Went Down to Georgia is on Guitar Hero 3 its the second-to-last song you play before Through the Fire and Flames (which is the credits) its a metal cover by Steve Ouimette, who did the covers for some songs in the GH games i really think you guys should check it out.
A good place to see more great guitarists along with Herman Li is to check out the DragonForce KZhead chanel. About 2 years ago, he did this big fundraiser for Jason Becker (another guitar virtuoso who can't play anymore due to having ALS). He had a bunch of awesome guest guitarists come on to help raise funds, like: Steve Vai, Tosin Abasi, Jason Richardson, Paul Gilbert, Nita Strauss, Stevie T, etc.
I had to do a performance to this song with choreo, and you’re right, it’s an exhausting practice 😅 obvsly not the same but still.
The Devil Went Down to Georgia was a metal cover and it's the final boss song at the end of Guitar Hero 3.
Check out Valley Of The Damned, Fields Of Despair, & Once In A Lifetime by them too. DragonForce is considered Power Metal. A lot of the subjects are about different mythologies, vikings, wars, etc. it’s usually uplifting though. You always want to just kick ass after listening to it. Early influences were Dio, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Rainbow, Yngwie Malmsteen, etc. You guys should also check out bands like Gamma Ray, HammerFall, Helloween, Iced Earth, Manowar, Powerwolf, Sabaton, Seven Kingdoms, Unleash The Archers, etc.
The metal version of The Devil Went Down to Georgia was on GH3
Seein yall geeked up about the talent it took to write and perform that song is truly great
THAT IT! IM MOVING THE COFFEE TABLE AND GETTING OUT THE 360
I remember the first night I played Guitar Hero back in college at a party. I literally didn't care about the beer or girls. I was sold on Guitar Hero because I played guitar. I made my damn fingers bleed that night lol. I bought it the next day and played it for days until I finished the game on expert. My 3 roommates were all going for it as well. I remember 2 of my roommates got stuck on "Cowboys From Hell" while my other roommate and I were stuck on "Bark at the Moon." I finally beat it and screamed through our apartment "BREAK OUT THE BEER! I DID IT!" That game was so addictive.
Hey Tae, I played the Michael Jackson dancing game on the Wii too you’re not alone 😂
I'll never get tired of watching people's reaction to this song/music video.
Getting drunk with buddies and playing RockBand was awesome lol good times
Hey guys I’m a new viewer. I love you guys already, you remind me of me and my friends. Anyways I know this may be a little out of the ordinary for your guy’s normal reactions. However, I would highly suggest you guys checking out soundgarden. Really any song will work but I would start off with something that really shows off there talent. If you guys do decide to check them out I would suggest one of there first big songs called “outshined”. Thank you
Having played Guitar Hero 3, I'd say that if you're counting across all difficulty levels (and most people wouldn't), "Raining Blood" actually beats out "Through the Fire and Flames" due to having a less dense but also less predictable pattern. (Also, the first time I played the latter was over the ending credit sequence, where you aren't scored and can't lose, so it just feels epic no matter how bad you are and that feeling kind of carried over to when you can play it normally.)
Lmao im not ready for raining blood when i eventually make it there on my expert run, i had enough of a shit time with on hard, but that probably wont be for a while, Before I Forget is walling me for some reason
You Guys would love Unleash The Archers. Awakening, band play through video is awesome. Also Tonight we ride, Test your metal, and Time Stands Still. All great songs.
PLS CONTINUE TO REACT TO THEM!
Thank you to #BrvndonRhone for doing it on his channel! Please CartierFamily REACT to Eminem Ft. Jack Harlow & Cordae "KILLER (Remix)." It's a remix to a song dropped on Music To Be Murdered By Side B (You guys might want the lyric video.) 💜💜💜
