以上視頻就是李康敏華麗麗的SOLO~

Dragonforce是這支樂隊(duì)的英文名稱，是典型的力量金屬樂隊(duì)。由香港籍英國(guó)吉他手李康敏（Herman Li）與吉他手（Sam Totman）在1999年成立，成立之初，樂隊(duì)命名為Dragonheart，后因了解到另外一支力量金屬樂隊(duì)重名，所以改為Dragonforce，號(hào)稱“The World’s Fastest Melodic Speed Power Metal”（意思為：世界上最快的力量金屬），其中樂隊(duì)創(chuàng)始成員兼團(tuán)長(zhǎng)，主音吉它手李敏康（Herman Li）來(lái)自中國(guó)香港，號(hào)稱中國(guó)第一吉它手，享有“華裔吉他英雄”的美譽(yù)。樂隊(duì)初始成員共有5人，分別來(lái)香港、英國(guó)、南非、法國(guó)、烏克蘭，名副其實(shí)的多國(guó)部隊(duì)。
　　
成立之初，樂隊(duì)命名為Dragonheart，主唱ZP theart是通過廣告加入的樂隊(duì)。隨后不久，鼓手Matej Setinc，貝斯手Steve Scott 和 鍵盤手Steve Williams加入了樂隊(duì)。其中Totman和Li曾參與過Demoniac樂隊(duì)，所以有過樂隊(duì)排練的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。一段時(shí)間后，Dragonforce以Dragonheart之命發(fā)行了一張Demo，并與Halford，Stratovarius 還有 headlined一起巡演。
　　
鼓手Matej Setinc在1999年離開了樂隊(duì)去Slovenia上學(xué)，Didier Almouzni加入頂替了鼓手的位置。貝斯手Steve Scott與鍵盤手Steve Williams于2000年分別離開了樂隊(duì)。Steve Williams之后幫助與Halford和Stratovarius巡演又再加入過樂隊(duì)一次，并在2000年底離開。Steve Scott則加入了Shadowkeep，隨后加入了Power Quest。
　　
2000年11月，貝斯手Diccon Harper加入樂隊(duì)。在2001年2月鍵盤手Vadim Pruzhanov加入樂隊(duì)后，Dragonforce聚齊了所需成員開始錄制第一張專輯。貝斯手Diccon Harper在完成了第一張專輯Valley of the Damned后，因?yàn)樾枰中g(shù)，在2002年離開了樂隊(duì)。

他們最初于域名為MP3的網(wǎng)站發(fā)行的歌曲 Black Winter Night于短短數(shù)個(gè)月，便有超過50萬(wàn)次下載次數(shù)，穩(wěn)據(jù)該網(wǎng)的重金屬排名榜2年之長(zhǎng)，兼且在頭5名內(nèi)維持了2年時(shí)間。

Here we are, far beyond the distant sky
Seen all the world and how the story will be over
Through the snow and tainted?mountains we have climbed
Now we have found the light that guides us over
Through the falling rain we travelled far and wide
And through the blackest darkness, stars above shining bright

Through the sun and winter rain will fall
All our lives we all were waiting for a sign to call
We're walking hand in hand in dreams of endless time
How do we know when we will leave this life behind?

Stare at life through eyes of mine
The hate, the fear and the pain
There's a feeling held deep inside
When life you live is in vain

Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday
We close our eyes to see the light of latter days
And all alone we'll be where time can never heal
With the trail of broken hearts flying free

Once again we walk this lonely road
There are times that we were wading through the rain and cold
We're lost in memories of what we left behind
Relive the dreams, the endless screams of pain inside

Lives are filled with emptiness
The fear returns once again
Searching endlessly, now we will see
Drown your mind in the pain

Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday
We close our eyes to see the light of latter days
And all alone we'll be where time can never heal
With the trail of broken hearts flying free

The last temptation will be all that's left for me
When I see those tears you cried
When I hear those lies you lied
When I feel all creation now falling down on me
Is this the reason to be?

Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday
We close our eyes to see the light of brighter days
And all alone we'll be where time can never heal
With the trail of broken hearts flying free?
