Yay,

Herman Li is one of the most inventive guitarists around. Not technically brillint but he does have some really cool ideas.

I find him technically good

But musically quite boring.

I find all Dragonforce songs sound the same. Impressive, but boring. I'd rather not listen to an album full of guitar solos.

I listen to Steve Vai if I want 50 mins of fret wanking.

Dragonforce are ok, but can be quite dull.

I admire the technical skill of guitarists like Li

And Vai, and Malmstein

But whilst they are miles ahead of many other guitarists in their technical skill, they seem to just pull out the same riffs in different orders for all their songs.

It's just not fun music.

I'd definitely describe dragonforce as fun music.

For good riffage I have been listening to Nile

and Meshuggah. Proper heavy metal.

Meshuggah are great,

but dragonforce are more appropriate if you want something fast and uncomplicated.

I like them for their sheer energy.

I can't listen to them for too long at once though.
