In March 2010, the group [[Creative Differences|parted ways]] with singer ZP Theart. The group announced an open audition via [[YouTube]] for his replacement, and after screening thousands of applicants, selected in March 2011 native Englishman Marc Hudson as his replacement. The group's first album with Hudson was released in early 2012.
In 2014, members Sam Totman and Herman Li collaborated with Japanese "Kawaii Metal" group [[BABYMETAL]] on the latter's song "Road of Resistance"; the next year BABYMETAL appeared with DragonForce at the Download Festival in England.
Not to be confused with the video game ''[[Dragon Force (video game)|Dragon Force]]''.
{{examples|The group's current{{when}} lineup consists of}}
Line 48 ⟶ 51:
* [[Captain Obvious]]: "Our swords are made of steel" from "Cry Of The Brave". Yeah, that's usually what swords are made of...
* [[Cluster Bleep Bomb]]: During one of the "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=xS-DfETmykA#t=347s Making of The Power Within]" videos, Frederic delivers a profanity-laden rant in French after repeatedly failing at one particular section of a song.
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: The new{{when}} live album ''Twilight Dementia'' has a surprising amount of cursing in between the songs; it's especially surprising since their actual songs never use any language harsher than "damn", "hell", and "whore".
* [[Creative Differences]]: The band stated that ZP leaving "is due to insurmountable differences of musical opinion".
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: "Through the Fire and Flames", anyone?
Line 57 ⟶ 60:
** And "Strike of the Ninja" isn't even a DragonForce song. It's originally from Sam's joke band side project, Shadow Warriors.
** They've stepped away from this a bit for ''The Power Within'', averaging about 5 minutes per song and reset their record for shortest song with ''Fallen World'', which is only 4:07.
* [[Funny Moment]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ywxm6zLEjFY#t=3m30s ZP just drinks coffee in front of a green screen during a guitar solo.]
* [[Fun with Foreign Languages]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_6BJ30Ztbs During a show in Finland.] the band had Marc read out a list of what were allegedly helpful and useful phrases in Finnish. They were actually swear words and things like "I'm gay", "I like men", or "[[Teeny Weenie|I have a small penis.]]"
** And in Montreal, Quebec they had him [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_SysskWzFc do the same in Québécois French.]
Line 115 ⟶ 119:
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: <s>Virtually</s> '''''Anything''''' can be made [[Theme Music Power-Up|more epic]] with the addition of a DragonForce song.
* [[The X of Y]]: Used in some of their song titles: "Fury of the Storm", "Soldiers of the Wasteland", "Valley of the Damned", "The Flame of Youth", "Trail of Broken Hearts", "Scars of Yesterday", etc.
* [[BFG]]: The [[Artificial Human|lady cyborg]] with [[Absolute Cleavage]] on the cover of ''Ultra Beatdown'' is holding one.{{context}} <!-- By BFG, do you mean "Big Freakin' Guitar", "Big Freakin' Gun", or one of the other meanings of this TLA? -->
* [[Deep-Immersion Gaming]]
* [[Desolation Shot]]
