"We are so excited to be able to play both our new songs and a special Inhuman Rampage set in Europe," says DragonForce co-founder and lead guitarist Herman Li. "This is a new era for the band, and I'm so proud of the new record. I can't wait to bring this new show to Europe!"
"Excitement would be an understatement - I'm thrilled to be back in my usual stomping ground and bring this exciting new concert to our European fans. See you soon!" adds DragonForce lead vocalist Alissa White-Gluz.
Out March 19th, 2027 on Napalm Records, produced by Jens Bogren and recorded in the US, UK, Canada and Sweden, DragonForce heralds a reintroduction to and continuous evolution of the preeminent pioneers of extreme power metal. Alongside freshly united lead vocalist and frontwoman Alissa White-Gluz and vocalist Alessio Garavello, longtime members Herman Li, Sam Totman, Gee Anzalone, Alicia Vigil and new addition Billy Wilkins together take their biggest step forward, elevating new sides to each of their artistry and virtuosic prowess, while building on all of the elements that have made DragonForce so beloved for nearly three decades and counting. Harkening back to their formative material, the album promises high energy, relentless speed and heavy, triumphant hooks, all woven in ways unlike anything fans have heard from them before.

In addition to releasing more new music this fall, and ahead of their Europe Tour 2027, DragonForce will soon begin their largest North American tour in more than two decades, in honor of 2026's 20th Anniversary of Inhuman Rampage, the monumental album that birthed the Platinum-selling global phenomenon of "Through the Fire and Flames" and spent 23 consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200. Joining White-Gluz on vocal duties throughout the new album and on-stage is Alessio Garavello, who has been a close friend and collaborator of DragonForce for 25 years. Alessio is taking over the male vocals position of previous lead singer Marc Hudson, who is temporarily stepping back from DragonForce music duties due to an ongoing issue with tinnitus.

Since the release of Inhuman Rampage and its signature anthem "Through the Fire and Flames" – the notoriously unbeatable final boss of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock – the GRAMMY®-nominated DragonForce have welcomed tens of millions of listeners into the fold through their eternally joyous, adrenaline-filled music. Founded in 1999 and based between Los Angeles and London, they have rewritten the rules of heavy metal, while redefining the possibilities of their respective instruments, appearing everywhere from Despicable Me 4 to Fortnite Festival, Brawl Stars and Asphalt Legends; from the covers of dozens of magazines to stages with Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, Slipknot, Metallica and many more.
