As I said earlier Dark Wings Of Steel is not
an easy drive and, in my opinion, is dark
and full of feelings that come to confront,
perhaps caused by the events that have
marked these musicians. However, the
compositional richness of Alex Staropoli
are still intact, and are now enriched by
the contributions of Lione and De Micheli.
Not everyone will be satisfied with this
album and it’s likely that many won´t like
it, but seeing it in a manner as objective
as possible, this is the first step after a key
moment for the band.
While changes are not always easy to
assimilate and overcome, Rhapsody of
Fire has the talent needed to address
them. They had two options; live past
glories or grow and remain a legend ... I
prefer the second, just give it time.
