Dragon Metal
(Gothic/Power/Doom Metal)
A Gothic Metal Evolution |
 |
| KeyDragon has
evolved over the last 5 years into what "The KeyDragon" has labeled
- Dragon Metal. A Gothic Metal influenced band with hints of
power metal and doom metal fueled by the soul of a Dragon. After 5 albums and
several band arrangements, KeyDragon has become a female fronted
Dragon Metal band with Dark, screaming vocals intertwined within a
blanket of power and doom.
KeyDragon first started the Dragon Metal
genre back in 1999 with the creation of the band - KeyDragon.
Ron Langford worked on the project for several years and finally
released Awaken the Lair. This was the start of the Dragon
metal genre and the beginning of the KeyDragon Legacy.
KeyDragon
is currently working on their 6th album - Legend of the Dragon -
which will be released October 31, 2007. This album will have
14 Dragon Metal tunes fronted by the angelic Tamara Venus Star.
Bobby Blackmon has outdone himself this time on the guitar, combing
both acoustic and electric guitars to give the right feel to each
song.
Ron Langford has added several new
synths and many new sounds to the new album. A new card and
bank of sounds for the prophecy accompanied by the Garriston
orchestra gives Legend of the Dragon a big, monstrous tone.

KeyDragon - Dragon Prophecy - 2006
"These guys &
girl have been in the scene for a little while now. They play a
combination of Rock Metal & Fantasy all mixed together. Most of
their music is based on Dragon Mythology &stuff related to
Dragons. This is where the Fantasy type atmosphere comes into
play. They have a Classic Rock sound with tinges of Metal all
through out. At times there are some almost Death Metal like
parts, especially in the vocals. There is a mixture of Male &
Female vocals as well. I have heard their past releases & would
have to say this is their best release to date. If your into
Fantasy Rock & Metal with a World vibe then you'll dig this band
a lot."

KeyDragon - Uncontrollable Forces
- 2005
"This California based band is
back with another new release. The mastermind behind this band
is Ron Langford doing bass, keys, synthesis & vocals along with
some other musicians & vocalists. They center their sound
on Metal, but they toss is Thrash, Doom, Classic Rock, Death,
Progressive Metal & even some Jazz sounds too. This band mixes
it up a lot. The thing that really makes them stand out is the
Psycho Sax all through out their sound. It almost sounds out of
place, but they make it work, some how. The vocals are done in a
mid ranged almost Death growl with some female vocals in the
back. This is a different sounding band with a lot of
originality!!! Check it if you have an open mind!!!"
