   I do not understand because a band should change name if then continuous to do what already did. Different they had been the cases in the 70's. 
The Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso it is reelected Banco because themeselves put to do POP, so like the Gleemen changed name in Garybaldi when decided do music more Prog. The PFM  arrived at this name for problems with the label (but today with the mergers of label does not exist more, for them, this problem). Other cases there are but is not the case of continue (for ex. Etna/ Flea/ Flea On The Honey...). Already I did not follow the Rhapsody (I have alone "Symphony Of Enchanted Lake"),  now that change name for motive that said... I believe that serious group should not change the name for these motive. Different it was the case of Norwegian Popol Vuh become Popol Ace to avoid the tribunal with the homonymous Gernan band. If this is reliability...

	The power metal band (listed here in PA) Rhapsody has issued this about their change of name: (taken from http://www.rhapsodyoffire.com/) Due to copyright and trademark issues the band formerly known as Rhapsody has changed its name. The band members consider this a great new start, reflecting the emboldened and increasingly grandiose direction that their music has taken. “The power of the dragonflame will burn brighter than ever before,” says guitarist/songwriter Luca Turilli. Keyboardist/songwriter Alex Staropoli adds, “The name Rhapsody Of Fire better represents the energy that has always been present in this band and its music.” With a new record company in Magic Circle Music, a new tour planned and a new album on the way, Rhapsody Of Fire will continue to explore musical fantasy worlds with the precision musicianship and unique symphonic concepts that their fans have come to expect and adore. Fresh on the heels of the band’s first live album release, Live In Canada 2005 - The Dark Secret, a new name and renewed vigor ensure that Rhapsody Of Fire still hold the passion and power that have always been associated with their music.
