Release Notes:

SPV/Steamhammer has issued the following press release in regards to
RHAPSODY OF FIRE forthcoming release, Triumph Or Agony.

With their new album, the recently re-dubbed RHAPSODY OF FIRE has again
woven a musical fantasy in the second chapter of their Dark Secret Saga:
Triumph Or Agony.

Due to copyright and trademark issues the band formerly known as
RHAPSODY has changed its name to Rhapsody Of Fire. Rhapsody Of Fire is a
continuation and step forward in the career of this innovative band.
Triumph Or Agony is the first release under the new moniker and Rhapsody
Of Fire has truly pulled out all of the stops. Triumph Or Agony features
a live 70 piece orchestra and choir and was again self-produced by
guitarist/songwriter Luca Turilli and keyboardist/songwriter Alex
Staropoli with assistance from co-producer Sascha Paeth. The album also
features an array of guest narrators and character actors, including
several recruits from the London theater scene, actress Susannah York of
the Superman film series and a return appearance by renowned actor
Christopher Lee, as the all knowing ‘Wizard King’.

Featuring artwork by artist Jeff Easley – who is best known for his work
on the Dungeons And Dragons role playing games – Triumph Or Agony will
also be presented in a limited-edition slipcase digipack with several
bonus tracks.

Triumph Or Agony is a testament to Rhapsody Of Fire’s musical prowess,
containing over sixty minutes of pure film score metal and continuing
the development of the powerful, rock-driven, epic style that the band
is known for.
