The Sonic Firestorm can be described as the new journey and chapter dragonforce was undergoing with the change to their current powerful drummer, Dave Mackintosh. Sonic firestorm was can't easily be described indifferent from their debut album, valley of the damned unless you listen very closely to its overall rhythm. It has a much more complex guitar riffs and solos throughout the songs and faster vocals that arguably gave birth to the power metal genre early in the 2000s. The whole album is a solid and satisfactory artwork.
