New Epica album!
Quote :
Epica's 5th full-length album which will be released on the 9th of March 2012 by Nuclear Blast will be called:
REQUIEM FOR THE INDIFFERENT
This title refers to the end of an era. Mankind can no longer stick their head in the sand for the things that are happening around us. We are facing many challenges. There is an enormous tension between different religions and cultures, wars, natural disasters and a huge financial crisis, which is getting out of control. More than ever we will need each other to overcome these problems. As we are all connected; the universe, earth, nature, animals and human beings, this period in time will be the prelude to the end for those who still don't want to, or simply won't see it. A REQUIEM FOR THE INDIFFERENT but also a possibility for a new beginning with great new chances!
Epica will present this album to the public on the 16th of March 2012, in 013, Tilburg (NL) tickets are still available but are going out fast! Be sure to get your tickets in time:
Keep an eye on the official Epica website and social media for regular updates on REQUIEM FOR THE INDIFFERENT!

Can't wait for the album, however I'm not digging this name at all, sounds like some crazy blackened death metal to me.

I guess they were getting bored of 3 word titles
Though if you read the description it's very much the usual Epica thing of "We shall save the world by lecturing everyone musically! And then we shall spend the rest of the time modelling lipsticks and chatting up fangirls."
Buuuut their music is awesome, so I'm sure we can forgive them that.

It sounds like such a MaYaN-y tracklist to me XD
The cover is pretty cool, typical stuff from Heile

Storm the Sorrow was alright when I heard it, I found nothing that special about it though, just an usual Epica song. I hope the other songs are more unique.

^ everyone's saying that's the worst song on the album apparently I'm guessing it's the first single? Because it's so simple and all. The other songs will blatantly be 10 minutes long and crazy, knowing Epica!
I was almost tempted to the box set as it's 30 euros rather than 70! But I'll probably just get the digipack.

The samples for the album are now up on iTunes (They are a minute and a half)!!! If it doesn't show up for you, just go and change your country to, "Nederlands" (It's at the bottom of the page).

That's exactly what I thought XD and they advertised it on their Facebook ("Buy it on itunes for 99 cents") like an hour after NB started giving it away for free o_O
I wasn't going to buy it, but downloaded the free one it's really not that good though, nice vocals and lyrics but the music is too simple and way too low in the mix.

The UK's "albums must be released on a Monday" law strikes again... sounds like I won't be getting it until after everyone else, as usual...
