More Information
You don’t believe in fairytales at all? You think there is no more romance today? Yes, there is! Both the history and the music of the dutch formation Epica resembles to a magical myth. The majestic mix of classical music, gothic and heavy metal could be the soundtrack of a fantasy epos as well. Mystical synth parts mix up with orchestral bombastic choirs and a classical set up at its best. Over the top you find the ravishing beauty and vocalist Simone Simons with her operatic and dynamic voice, which enchants everybody and everything.
“Design Your Universe” is the fifth album by the sextet, a record that bursts up boundaries and makes your breath slow down. Epica never sounded that intensive and unique, so versatile and hymnic. Songwriter Mark Jansen has exceeded himself and presents the most mature, heaviest and best album to date.
