DragonForce Live in Singapore 2009 Grammy Nominee metal band DragonForce returns to Singapore with a one-night only concert at D’Marquee, Downtown East on Saturday, 11th April 2009.  Nominated for Best Metal Performance for the track ‘Heroes of Our Time’ in the coming Grammy awards on 8th February, DragonForce has achieved incredible worldwide success over the past two years with their explosive and entertaining live shows. The Singapore leg of the world tour will feature songs from their latest album ‘Ultra Beatdown’ as well as hits from their previous albums. Their last album ‘Inhuman Rampage’ sold in more than 350,000 copies in America alone, over 85,000 copies in the UK and 600,000 copies worldwide, spawning the US Gold single ‘Through The Fire and Flames’, thus giving DragonForce the cachet of being the most successful new British metal act in America in two decades! ‘Ultra Beatdown’ is the latest album to take DragonForce to new heights. It has broken musical barriers to reach the Top 20 charts in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Taiwan, Singapore and the Top 10 in Japan. Dragonforce’s Hong Kong-born guitar virtuoso, Herman Li, stated “I always knew we would have a good shot at success in the Far East, the people there like a good show and appreciate good music. Many bands don’t pay enough attention to the countries in that area of the world! The last Far East tour in 2007 came at the end of an 18 month long World Tour. We all promised fans we would play there live and honoured that promise. I’m looking forward to playing Hong Kong, but we’ll put on a great show for all the fans in China, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore! It is great to be back!”   Do not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to witness the most exciting live band in rock music today!
