DragonForce Announce 'Inhuman Rampage' 20th Anniversary Tour Dates
DragonForce has announced that they will be hitting the road later this year on a tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album Inhuman Rampage. The album is most well-known for spawning the epic guitar-driven track “Through the Fire and Flames”. The tour is set to kick off on November 13th in San Diego, CA, and will wrap up on December 13th in Los Angeles, CA. Two Northern California dates are set for December 11th in Sacramento and December 12th in Berkeley.
Support will be provided by Ensiferum and Rhapsody of Fire. In a statement released from the band, guitarist Herman Li stated the following:
“Twenty years is a long time to do anything, let alone survive the music industry and still be so inspired to continue doing what we love. Together we will honor what made Inhuman Rampage matter, while showing people exactly where we’re going next.”
Vocalist Alissa White-Gluz also stated:
“As a long-time fan of DragonForce, having seen them in concert multiple times over the last 20 years, I am beyond excited to be bringing such iconic music to life with these amazingly skilled musicians in such a fun and inspiring environment. It feels great to showcase all the colours of my voice in technically challenging, deeply energizing, highly addictive songs. Creating and performing with musicians who deeply care about the music and concerts as much as I do is so refreshing. Plus, with Blue Medusa going full throttle and gaining so much momentum in parallel, I feel like I am permanently in the creative zone, which is exactly where I want to be!”
Tickets for all dates are on sale, and you can view the full tour routing below.
