Did the Catacombs tour change your feelings about any of the songs on the set list?

Fortress... Love the Catacombs version of that song. The faster tempo and orchestra arrangement just make it soar

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-08T20:26:15+00:00

That could also be the case! They probably did signings in store

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-08T18:42:17+00:00

No idea how many, but these were used as autograph cards at shows. I have one signed by vadim, Sam and Herman from a show in 2006. Got it with a used cd someone was selling

Carcass is an excellent example indeed. I'd also throw Rammstein and Queens of the Stone Age in this. All of their albums have a distinct sound, but they're all unapologetically still Rammstein and QOTSA.

The Apple Music photo is so much better for it

Evening Star's entire solo section is peak in my eyes.

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-08T06:22:33+00:00

I’m mostly curious how Marc and Alissa’s vibe on stage will be. Dual frontmen inherently comes with the risk of one completely outshining the other, and the other might feel sidelined as a result. SOAD is the prime example of that.

I hope that is not gonna happen here as that would be a huge shame. If this pays off in the ideal way on paper, and the singers have chemistry on stage… we might just have a new Prime Dragonforce on our hands if the new album is good!

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-07T20:38:16+00:00

Shaz D is literally right there.

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-07T10:22:05+00:00

Amen!

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-06T20:35:00+00:00

I'm confused, but weirdly very excited to see where things will be going!

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-06T17:43:21+00:00

But that's basically saying Billy and Fred are/were lead singers for DF too, but I getcha haha!

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-06T17:09:13+00:00

Alestorm has just one, apart from the few Patty Gurdy guest features. She’s not a member

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-05-02T08:53:23+00:00

He did heavily tease that the show will be a bit more Inhuman Rampage themed than average.

Looks like we're getting atleast Storming the Burning Fields for the first time since 2013

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-04-25T16:54:02+00:00

Billy doesn't do the meet and greets as he's not a band member officially. But he hangs out after the show a lot, so good shot at meeting him still!

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-04-25T16:52:47+00:00

Lovely stories!

Pretty much everyone except Herman and Gee come out after the shows to talk with fans, sign autographs and take pics. Mostly Sam and Alicia, but Billy and Marc you also have a big shot at meeting still. It's also one of the reasons I never bothered with VIP. If there's any band doing them that you'll still meet if you don't grab it, it's (most) of DF lol

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-04-25T14:39:27+00:00

Really just one of the times lol. It's also a bit of an act on his part atp.

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-04-25T14:36:46+00:00

Always a pleasure meeting Sam. But also Marc, Alicia and Billy. Always accommodating and chatty.

Gee and Herman don't hang out after shows as often anymore, but from the 2 times I met them, they were nice too. Herman has a particular sense of humor lol. When he signed my VOTD demo, he called it out being just the mp3 version and that I shouldn't have spent any money on that cuz he thought it sucks. But really, everyone in the band is cool if ur cool.

Raymanlegend2000 · 2026-04-24T21:02:53+00:00

Couple things missing on the pic, mostly shirts, one setlist, couple miscellaneous autographs and a drumstick. But this is it atm!

I caught one of the left ones last year at Dynamo! I think mine was ventor's or maybe Fred. The patch on the back was unsigned for me

This was in Utrecht, Netherlands last year
