HERMAN LI Wants DRAGONFORCE’s 2005 Lineup To Reunite For An Inhuman Rampage Album Tour In 2026
Dragonforce guitarist Herman Li would love to get the band’s 2005 lineup back together for a full-on Inhuman Rampage celebration tour in 2026. And yes, that’s the album with “Through the Fire and Flames”.
During a March 18 livestream on YouTube, Li said: “I’ll ask the people that were part of that tour lineup to see if they would do it too. So we will see what result I’ll get. But I have started asking people to see if they wanna be part of it.”
“Life has changed for a lot of people that was once on that tour lineup. So, we’ll see what happens. But I’m telling you, I will ask them, I will talk to them. If this doesn’t happen with them, it’s not my fault. I have asked them. So, that’s the plan.”
He added: “So we’re still in the early stage of planning. We’ll see if we can get a tour for that too.”
Inhuman Rampage featured guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman, both of whom are still in the band; vocalist ZP Theart who left in 2010, drummer Dave Mackintosh who left in 2014, and keyboardist Vadim Pruzhanov who left in 2018.
On potentially playing the album and some of its challenges, Li said: “Well, first we’ve gotta play ‘Through The Fire And Flames’ not last. That would be a great change. And I do like those songs. I think they’re great songs. I’d love to play some of them again. Of course, we played ‘Revolution Deathsquad’ recently.
“We’ve been playing… Oh, shit. That’s right. ‘Cry For Eternity’ will be on it. Is ‘Cry For Eternity’ on that album? Yes. Well, that’s the bad thing. I’ve gotta learn that song finally — I’ve gotta shut up and learn it. But ‘Operation Ground And Pound’, we played that song, we played ‘Body Breakdown’, we played all those songs before. So it shouldn’t be too hard to learn mainly, and it would be kind of cool.”
