DRAGONFORCE, the Grammy-nominated power metallers, are poised to release a comprehensive career-spanning “Best Of” – the first time the UK band has presented this kind of historical “chapter & verse” collection. Killer Elite – The Hits, The Highs, The Vids is scheduled for a July 22 release through Spinefarm Records. The 22-track set -two hours and 30 minutes of music, featuring both studio and live material, with promo clips added to the Deluxe set- fully showcases the ambition, variety and skill of the group’s musical output, now taking in six studio albums; elements of thrash, speed and power metal are spread across accelerated rockers and more measured, melodic offerings. It encompasses everything, from their biggest hit, “Through The Fire And Flames,” a staple inclusion on several best-selling video games (i.e. Guitar Hero) and recently used as the basis of a U.S. mockumentary featuring the band and Oculus Rift founder Palmer Luckey through “Dawn Over a New World,” a ballad harking back to the early years.
