DragonForce have unveiled the second single, Neverending Nightmare, from their tenth studio album, DragonForce, due out on March 19, 2027 via Napalm Records. The track runs over 6 minutes and features Alissa White-Gluz and Alessio Garavello.
The band have also shared the video for the title track on YouTube, along with Hunger Of The Beast, unveiled in September.
DragonForce unveil Neverending Nightmare and explore their new lineup
Neverending Nightmare opens with Alissa White-Gluz’s clean vocals before quickly launching into the high-speed bursts DragonForce fans have come to love. Herman Li and Sam Totman trade solos. Alissa and Alessio handle the clean and aggressive vocal passages respectively throughout the track.
DragonForce’s new lineup has sparked plenty of discussion since White-Gluz (of Arch Enemy) and Garavello (of Power Quest) joined this spring. Hudson is also notably absent, having stepped back due to persistent tinnitus.
DragonForce began recording their album last spring in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Sweden, wrapping up sessions this summer. Producer Jens Bogren describes the album as “some of the most incredible and epic metal” he has heard, while Li promises it will be their heaviest album yet, while still being fast, fun and energetic.
“We’re not chasing commercial success or fame. We make music because we want to create something we enjoy and grow as musicians.”
Alissa White-Gluz is also delighted to have worked with them. “I loved working with DragonForce. It’s great to play with musicians of this caliber and bring out the best in our respective styles. This blend of speed and ferocity is really refreshing. I can’t wait to play these songs live.”
Two French shows in spring 2027
DragonForce are currently on the first leg of their North American tour celebrating their 20th anniversary. On November 13, the band will play Inhuman Rampage in full. The tour includes many more shows across Europe in 2027. Two shows are scheduled in France for spring 2027: April 9 at the Bataclan in Paris and April 13 at Le Transbordeur in Lyon. The shows will feature new material alongside selected songs from Inhuman Rampage.
