May 10, 2017From start to finish (including bonus tracks), There are plenty of good and memorable songs that more than live up to previous works. It's a different sound but in a good way that fits the band.

Nov 17, 2011Doesnt really do enough to seperate from the norm of a Dragonforce album but it does feature some good tracks and it will be enjoyable to most fans of the band.

HannahCDec 8, 2008Can't believe I nearly missed this. It's BRILLIANT!! I recommend for all DragonForce fans. There is a clear improvement in this album. (Really need to find someone with the bonus tracks... annoyed at the fact I don't have them... always listen to bonus tracks.

ThomasBOct 9, 2008I love these guys but really the constant "it sounds the same" crap is getting annoying... People who say it all sounds the same listen to the first 5 seconds of every song plus i can name a few genres that sound the same throughout... cough rap cough... but people say it's synthesized and so? That's their sound... I love the lyrics, I love the sound, I love Dragonforce!

TimFSep 23, 2008This album is an improvement over Inhuman Rampage in every way despite not having one really good standout song. Its more of the same Dragonforce. Personaly, I wouldn't have it any other way!

TomPSep 1, 2008The Onion said just about all that can be said. The only reason it's even getting some good scores is because it's a good release for a totally garbage genre. But not enough seem to realize that that means it's still complete crap.

EvanLSep 1, 2008If you like dragonforce, go buy this cd. Just don't expect much difference from Inhuman rampage. But, then again, is that ever a bad thing?

[Anonymous]Aug 29, 2008I really hope the real critics come to knock this shit to the ground. Seriously when did sweaty ugly soulless 13 year old start getting attention just because some idiots put it in a video game. It sounds like what happens when you give people with a deep hatred for music too much money and tell them they have to make a cd.

HowlPenDragonAug 29, 2008Look, it's DragonForce. If you're a fan, why bother reading this. Y'know it rocks as hell. Believe me, run down to the store and buy it NOW! Greatest album yet by more than a country mile! The description of the album at DF HQ couldn't be more true--you won't be disappointed! Keep on rockin' DF!

MislavFAug 28, 2008DragonForce's best CD yet. It improves upon the ridiculous speed of Inhuman Rampage while throwing in new elements for variation. Anybody who has ever enjoyed DragonForce should get this. NOW Magazine is correct.

Power metal may not be the most inventive musical style on the planet, but Dragonforce are making it more exciting than most anyone else has for quite some time.

Alternative PressUltra Beatdown is a relentless explosion of power metal serving as a superb master class for fledgling shredders on any instrument. [Sep 2008, p.152] [Sep 208, p.152]

Those in the know can attest DF is merely coming into its own after years on the touring circuit.
