Rhapsody Of Fire Biography

Rhapsody Of Fire Formerly known simply as Rhapsody, this acclaimed Italian heavy metal band active since the mid-'90s was forced to change its name to Rhapsody of Fire in 2005, due to copyright issues. Yet, with the arrival of their next album, 2006's Triumph or Agony, fans discovered that nothing else had changed about the elaborately conceived, progressive and baroque power metal, created by longtime members Fabio Lione (vocals), Luca Turilli and Dominique Leurquin (guitars), Alex Staropoli (keyboards), Patrice Guers (bass), and Alex Holzwarth (drums). ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide
