Архив новостей | Русская версия
DRAGONFORCE and pop culture have always gone hand in hand — so frontman Marc Hudson's latest collaboration with the hit anime TV show "Dan Da Dan" is total perfection! The charismatic singer lends his voice to Hayashi in the English dub of the Netflix show, delivering an impressively commanding exorcism through the power of heavy metal music. Episode six of season two of "Dan Da Dan" — episode 18 overall — will be released on Netflix and Crunchyroll on August 7.
Hudson comments on the collaboration: "I'm beyond thrilled to announce that I had the incredible opportunity to be a voice actor in 'Dan Da Dan' — one of my all-time favorite anime series! I play the role of the vocalist for Hayashi in Season 2, Episode 6, and getting to perform the exorcism song as part of the character was an absolute blast.
"After making 'Starbound Stories', an album deeply inspired by anime, I was so happy to be invited to actually sing on an anime — it felt like everything had come full circle. This show is wild, creative, and full of heart, and it was a real privilege to be a part of it.
"As the vocalist of DRAGONFORCE, I've had the chance to perform on some amazing songs and albums, but this was a whole new and exciting experience. I can't wait for everyone to see the episode!"
Last year, Hudson and his DRAGONFORCE bandmates released the "Warp Speed Warriors" album via Napalm Records. The LP stands as the legendary band's most ambitious and innovative release to date. On it, founding guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman, Hudson, bassist Alicia Vigil and drummer Gee Anzalone explore a wider range of varying musical styles than ever before, evolving their sound throughout the exciting musical journey while still staying true to their roots.
Hudson's debut solo album, the aforementioned "Starbound Stories", came out in 2023 via Napalm Records. The LP was an outstanding musical adventure balanced between power metal, video game soundtracks, Japanese music and even pop influences, showcasing virtuosity throughout all of its grand instrumentation. For the album, Hudson again worked with ex-DRAGONFORCE bassist Frédéric Leclercq, who has since moved on as a member of thrash legends KREATOR and extreme metal supergroup SINSAENUM.
