I think that heartbreaking chorus has something to do with it. They all get equal treatment but somehow this song did ring a bell with us that’s why we made it the first song on the album and made it the first single and video. “The funny thing is we approach every song pretty much the same when we’re making an album, so we never said Through The Fire And Flames is going to get more attention or be better than the other songs. At that point in time everyone hated guitar solos and I’d like to think we played some part in that. We were writing songs with no boundaries.

We thought, ‘What do we like?’ It had to be big and over the top and have six guitar solos. It’s an important album in developing your sound, and we were just throwing everything including the kitchen sink into every single song. “This was back in early 2005 and we were making our third album. Here, guitarist Herman Li explains how a ‘kitchen sink’ (and flushing toilet) approach led to the band's most iconic and recognisable song… Epic, rampant and fiendishly technical – as legions of gamers could testify – it introduced the band to a vast audience through its inclusion on Guitar Hero 3 and subsequent games. DragonForce changed that with their breakthrough third album and its lead single Through The Fire And Flames. In the early 2000s you couldn't get arrested playing power metal in the UK, apart from by the musical fashion police perhaps.
