[edit] Double Dragon
Is there a source for this statement? Otherwise it's just down to opinion. --Jeff24 12:48, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Is this debated? Because I assure you it's there. It's quite easy to spot if you know what the Double Dragon theme sounds like, it's at about 3:40 in the song. You say it's down to opinion, but it's note-for-note, and it's well known that there's a video game music influence in Dragonforce, it seems pretty obvious to me. Cloudy 21:36, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- Then again, it would be nice to have a source verifying as such. --Dayn 03:09, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

- Indeed it would. If I manage to find a solid reference I'll put it up here Cloudy 23:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Invocation of Apocalyptic Evil
...Is a very short keyboard swell that segues into Valley of the Damned, it's no-where near seven odd minutes, not even 15 seconds. --Dayn 12:16, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
About the added citation needed... I agree. What would be a suitable citation? I can't recall any power metal bands that have actually done that... so maybe it would be better if it was removed, and readded if a source was found; because as it stands, I don't think any citation will be added any time soon. Sure, it's silly and seems true... but the "overly epic names opening many power metal records"? Haven't come across any at all. --Dayn 10:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pachelbels Canon miscellanea
I removed an anonymous user's contribution about the chorus to Valley of the Damned using the same chord progression (as I understood it meant) as Pachelbel's Canon in D. I removed it because it said that it needed citation, which is pretty much an indication it doesn't belong, because it isn't cited. Besides, even on Canon in D it says it's a widely used chord progression... so unless an actual citation can be found (without original research) it shouldn't be there. I might investigate some of the other trivia things in other DragonForce related articles. --Dayn 12:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
I've renamed "miscellanea" to "trivia", and reworded things. For example, I removed "some say..." and "has been interpreted..." from the trivia; weasel words, and no citation. I reworded the third one about Invocation of Apocalyptic Evil so it doesn't require a citation... y'know, made it to the point and self-evident instead of making unverified claims. People'll get the idea it's sort of a joke track. --Dayn 10:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
