@njcandoit I believe they're singing "how can't you see this stress is killing me" but I wouldn't love this band any less if they toked some green...long live Epica!!!
I want to buy this album (digital), but I can't find it anywhere! This isn't the only one I can't either. Does anyone know where I can purchase this??
@person257 Epica are not ''friends'' with their old label, so they can't sell their first two CDs anymore :( you'll have to download it or buy it at a concert or something.
We all think we’re generous But we only fool ourselves The only thing that matters is Our way and our vision Selfishly we’re venomous But you know the time tells us There is more to life than our Higher positions, race for perfection Better, faster We must return to the laws of the nature Free ourselves from madness EPICA RULES.
EPICA is the best symphonic metal group, their songs are about things paranormal, ancient civilizations, the church and lies etc, EPICA is for me the best band in the world.
I LIKE THIS SON!!!!!!!! FROM MEXICO

Sorry Epica but I'll be honest, as a Epica fan. This must be the most disgusting, horrible, atrocious, ugly, cheesy, blasphemous, make satan weep song I have ever heard.
ADD ALL THAT TOGETHER YOU GET THIS FUCKING FANTASTIC, PERFECTLY COMPOSED SONG.
@MARKEDEVIL1 He didn't ruin this song, or any song for that matter. He's the most creative, skilled musician in the band. Granted, his vocals could've been better on this album, but i like the call and response angelic/demonic voice. Simone is like the voice of reason with her vocals, and Mark always plays the darker "bad" character in each song. It makes the music that much more epic.

"in 1908 a lady named sally rusa was in the woods looking for a dog until a ghost came and killed her so if ur reading this u will find a bloody body in your closet hanging there haunting you and will kill you and ur family and if u want to stop this just sends this to 6 videos in 30 mins or this will happen good luck"
l never get tired of this song. lt's just so amazing and Epic. There are many symphonic metal bands, but a lot of them are kinda boring. But Epica is one of those few really good ones that play it in a perfect way, making the atmosphere of the song really blow you away. :D Epica was my introduction to symphonic metal and will always be one of my favourites (with Therion of course)
@athleteoceanograph Or buy it. Epica's a great band. worth supporting. This is one of their albums that's signed with a record company that distributes to america. you can get it off of amazon for like $14. all their older stuff is like $40 to have it imported. If you live in Europe, shame on you for not owning all their stuff and not having gone to seen them 40 times already.
7:58-8:10 now that is what I'm talking about. Just listen to that part and tell me that Epica isn't capable of being just as brutal as any black metal or death metal band.
This album is underrated. Alot of people say it's Epica's worst, but I think it's their 2nd best after Design Your Universe. I just love the powerful double bass patterns along with the guitars in songs like this, The Last Crusade, Mother of Light and Dance of Fate.
@bonfire5555 Screamo and gothic metal are completely different. Gothic metal is actually epic enough to be good. Screamo is just a fail excuse to gather a bunch of emos in one room and then jump around screaming shitty lyrics while they all cry.
@Endrance88 I think that not,.. It's symphonic Amazing metal xD.. Epica have like two gothic songs (for me).. but these lyrics are not gothic, I think they call Epica "Gothic" because they use "Beauty and the Beast" you know, this aesthetic contrasts, gutural and liric.
The best Epica's song till this moment. Full of energy and great lyrics, great choir and classical instruments, a great lead singer. Veru great song, thanks.
We must return to the laws of the nature free ourselves from MADNESS!!!
