Guitar Hero experts, its time to start sizing up your greatest foe. Coming in at over seven blistering minutes in length, "Through the Fire and Flames" by Dragonforce makes every other song released in the Guitar Hero franchise look like absolute child's play. During one of the Guitar Hero 3 competitions at E For All, one of the competitors was invited to play the song on stage with one of the developers of the game, who can actually be seen in this video playing on the right side.

Just to give you an idea of how hard this song truly is to actually play; I consider myself a pretty good Guitar Hero player. I've cleared every song in Guitar Hero 1 and 2 (With the sole exception of that bastard child, "Jordan") with five star ratings on the majority of songs. However, I couldn't even get 15% through this song on hard. I didn't even bother trying expert.

So start practicing Guitar Hero hopefuls, because "Through the Fire and Flames" is going to eat you alive and spit out your soul if you're not ready for it.

And sorry for the shaky camera. I unfortunately do not have the steadiest hands in the world.
