DRAGONFORCE Featured In CAPITAL ONE Commercial - Dec. 29, 2012

British epic power metallers DRAGONFORCE are featured in a new commercial for the Capital One mobile app, which "lets you bank where ever so you can keep doing what you're doing." Check it out below.

DRAGONFORCE's new album, "The Power Within", sold 5,800 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 74 on The Billboard 200 chart.

DRAGONFORCE's previous CD, "Ultra Beatdown", opened with 24,000 units back in September 2008 to land at No. 18.

DRAGONFORCE's recent North American headlining tour marked the band's first trek with new singer Marc Hudson, who also makes his recorded debut on "The Power Within".

"The Power Within" was released in the U.K. on April 16 via the band's own Electric Generation Recordings, distributed by Essential Music.

No they can?t. It?s all studio wizardry.

I can?t take this band seriously musically because they can?t pull off any of their shit live. Plus the metal genre they represent ain?t my bag either.

Well if it was true "rock" the mainstream would turn it down in a second. i've always defined dragonforce as "happy metal" hence why im glad theyre doing the commercial instead of meshuggah

Happy metal?

That is just plain gay. Metal is not meant to be happy. Metal is fucking METAL

If you hate DragonForce's music, that's understandable. They aren't musicians on par with Dream Theater or Symphony X by any stretch of the imagination but they can play live.

Yes they sounded like shit on their 2006 tour but they have gotten their act together since then.

Not a fan of Dragonforce but I don't fault them for this. Musicians have a short time frame to make money, they need to get what they can when they can. Someday when you are an adult and have a wife and kids that will need to go to college you'll understand.

You mean the wannabe's? It's mostly just "kids" who are still living off their parents while quoting Metal lyrics in their Twitter and Facebook status. No one needs them to give lessons on what's Metal and what it means to "Sell Out".... that's some 1989 shit there... Most of us have grown out of such foolery and can take it all with a grain of salt.

Ridiculous... but maybe if people bought their music instead of illegally downloading it, maybe they wouldn't have do to these things.
