Rhapsody of Fire es una banda italiana icónica en el género del metal sinfónico, conocida por fusionar melodías épicas con potentes riffs de guitarra y orquestaciones grandiosas. Fundada en 1993 en Trieste por el guitarrista Luca Turilli y el teclista Alex Staropoli bajo el nombre de Thundercross, el grupo rápidamente estableció una base sólida en la escena del metal europeo.
En 1995, tras la incorporación del vocalista Fabio Lione, el bajista Alessandro Lotta y el baterista Daniele Carbonera, la banda cambió su nombre a Rhapsody. El demo "Eternal Glory" llamó la atención de la crítica y los oyentes, lo que llevó a la creación de su emblemático álbum debut, "Legendary Tales" (1997). Este trabajo mostró una impactante mezcla de música clásica, elementos barrocos y heavy metal, influyendo significativamente en el género.
Rhapsody rápidamente ganó notoriedad por sus discos conceptuales, narrando historias épicas a lo largo de varios álbumes. La primera saga, conocida como "The Emerald Sword Saga," abarca cinco álbumes, comenzando con "Legendary Tales" y culminando en "Power of the Dragonflame" (2002). Esta historia se centra en heroicas batallas, reinos perdidos y una mítica espada esmeralda. Los álbumes de esta saga fueron aclamados por su ambición narrativa y su innovadora fusión musical.
2 s Challenge The Wind Lyrics[Verse 1]
The Son of Vengeance is ready to fight
From darkness to light
The justice will strike down upon Bezrael
From heaven to hell
All of the murders shall soon be avenged
Those innocent souls
This raging fire igniting his pride
All hail to Kreel
[Pre-Chorus]
Terial will fly through the Shadows of the Night
The diaphanous sentry, the hawk made of ice
[Verse 2]
Quingdar has cried in the River of Tears
Thy tears filled the lake
The creature of God has adverted the fall
The bell has to toll
Let's play the bells for the heroes in white
From darkness to light
The power of magic will show us the light
We'll know black and white
[Pre-Chorus]
The path will be lit by the rays of the stars
To reach out the secrets the Nephilim's holding back

Surrounded by darkness he'll bright us the light
