Dragonforce has signed to Napalm Records for their first album since Extreme Power Metal in 2019. While the album remains unannounced at the moment, Dragonforce has unveiled a North American tour with Amaranthe, NanowaR of Steel, and Edge of Paradise as the openers to kick off this October.
"We are absolutely thrilled to join forces with Napalm Records, a true powerhouse in the metal music universe!" said Dragonforce vocalist Marc Hudson. "This marks the beginning of an epic new chapter for Dragonforce, and we're eager to see what our collaboration will bring to our fans around the world!”
"It's an absolute honor to team up with the mighty Dragonforce and announce this signing today," added Napalm Records Managing Director Thomas Caser. "Their speed, sound and hooks are undeniably legendary along with their captivating and unique concepts! We look forward to getting their new music out to the world!”
"We're really looking forward to touring in the US and Canada again," said Dragonforce guitarist Herman Li. "We've prepared a new setlist with some brand new songs that we'll be releasing before the tour begins. Alongside these, we'll also be playing some older songs that haven't been in our setlist for a long time, as well as some classic favorites that are a must. It's shaping up to be a fantastic tour!"
