Coen Janssen comments: “Besides Simone’s vocals, our music has a lot more voices to be heard! Of course, there is Mark, growling away from Sicily due to him not being able to travel to the studio because of the pandemic. Next to the children’s choir, we also have the ’normal’ choir again, giving us an even better performance than previous times. And just when you thought that was all, we squeeze in some awesome backing vocals by Linda and Marcela to complement Simone’s leads. Seeing everything coming together like this is the cherry on the cake of the recordings so enjoy the little snippets…. almost done :)”

EPICA’s first new music is scheduled for release this fall through Nuclear Blast Records. In support of this album, the band will comprehensively tour Europe during the rescheduled “Epic Apocalypse” co-headline tour with APOCALYPTICA and support-act WHEEL.
