I also love this band. I recently discovered them and was blown away. Always love prog bands where the keyboardist has a bigger role than just accompaniment. I myself play guitars (six to nine strings also the Solar 1.8 cannibalissimo) and synths. The singer Dino Jelusić is awesome and the keyboardist Derek Sherinian (ex Dream Theater and Planet X) is one of my favorite keyboardist and let’s not forget Bumblefoot on guitars. An absolute awesome band
I couldn't really understand why either... the name is just off a bit. BUT... yeah... when I first heard "In the name of War" I was flat out stunned. I was like HOLY SH$T! who is this..... and then I realized it was Shernian and Bumblefoot and yeah the singer Dino is on a another level... wow! Anyway... new Whom Gods Destroy song is due to come out Feb 7th. I am looking forward to it.

Ok... new song Over Again is good... not the same impact as In the Name of War but it's good.
Very funny... When I heard the name of the band, I thought, "What an awesome band name." I love it 😊

2/5 of Sons of Apollo…
Whom gods destroy literally sounds like the 1st 2 Adagio records with David Readman on vocals.
Star Trek
Dino is the best raw rock vocalist on earth
The vocals, to up front for my taste
The only thing i disliked was the band name, too long, not catchy
It's not just you, the name is lame. 😂
also nice that they cut that bit off when they shared Ola's video
The only people that have disliked the name are you, Ola, and my friend Stefan.
The name isnt horrible fits the music.What counts is the music&album is just great
