DragonForce live version of Strike Of The Ninja confirmed for single release

DragonForce, the stellar musicians whose latest ‘Ultra Beatdown’ release charted strongly all over the world, will release a new digital single – a live version of ‘Strike of the Ninja’ – on September 13th via Spinefarm Records UK.

Taken from the double live album ‘Twilight Dementia’, also scheduled for release on September 13th, also on the Spinefarm UK label, this adrenalized version of the song was recorded on the band’s last run of UK dates, with regular producer Karl Groom overseeing the recording & mixing along with DragonForce guitarists Herman Li & Sam Totman.

One of 13 tracks set to feature on the album, ‘Strike of the Ninja’ showcases the musicians at their shredding, pounding, pumped-up best, all soaring vocals & advanced guitar pyrotechnics.

Says Herman Li:

“These recordings really capture the raw sonic energy of a DragonForce show in fine detail. It is so real that you can hear the noise of the crowd and experience the show as it was that night – you can even hear the guitar pedals being stepped on!”

The original studio version of ‘Strike of the Ninja’ (the shortest song recorded by the band!) first appeared as a bonus track on the Special Edition of the aforementioned ‘Ultra Beatdown’.
