The number of destiny is the first album by Embrace Of Souls. Is a brilliant piece of powerful symphonic metal. The group is born from an idea of Michele ‘Mikymetal’ Olmi (Chronosfear) with the help of Giacomo Voli (Rhapsody Of Fire). The basic idea was to build a symphonic power metal band by bringing together, between regular members and guests, all the best of Italian power. The first choice was to recruit the voice of,Rhapsody of Steel, Giacomo Voli who immediately accepted the challenge willingly. They were joined by Giovanni Paolo Galeotti on guitar, Xavier Rota of Chronosfear on bass and Davide Scuteri on keyboards
The test of time has generally proven to be an easy pass for the high-impact, fantasy obsessed and dense symphonic landscapes of Rhapsody Of Fire, though recent shifts in this Italian symphonic powerhouse’s lineup and the ascendancy of several competitors have caused some to question if this is the same mighty band that brought such classics as Symphony Of Enchanted Lands and Power Of The Dragonflame into the world…
