The Granada
Sunday, November 12

Touring ahead of the release of their next album, Warp Speed Warriors, due out March 15, extreme power metal pioneers DragonForce took to the stage at the Granada to blow minds with the absolute mind-melting shredding abilities of guitar virtuosos and founding members Herman Li and Sam Totman. Along with singer Marc Hudson, bassist Alicia Vigil, and drummer Gee Anzalone, the band ripped through a set which showcased classics like “Through the Fire and Flames,” their latest single “Power of the Triforce,” and covers of Céline Dion and Taylor Swift.

Along for the ride were Swedish heavy metal act Amaranthe, Italian comedy metal band NanowaR of Steel, and L.A. hard rockers Edge of Paradise.
