Epica

Epica  umas das melhores bandas de Symphonic Metal do mundo, fundada na holanda por Mark Jansen ex After Forever, e a bela Simone Simons a banda vem ganhando muitos fãs e evoluindo acada álbum embora exista pessoas que não gostam do Epica.

Mark que é apaixonado por culturas antigas como Egípcia e Maia e isso pode ser visto nas letras das musicas e nas capas de alguns álbuns.

O Epica tem algumas curiosidades entre elas é que Simone só começou a estudar lirico depois que ouviu Tarja Turunen em um álbum do Nightwish.

Outra curiosidade é que o nome da banda é uma homenagem a o álbum Epica do Kamelot  apos uma sugestão dos seu produtor que por coincidência era o mesmo dos estadunidenses.

Nascida como uma banda de metal sinfônico com tendências góticas, mais tarde Epica incorpora em seu som fortes influências do death metal. A partir do terceiro álbum, as influências do metal progressivo tornaram-se evidentes. Além disso, a banda usa frequentemente riffs de thrash metal e groove metal, passagens do black metal (principalmente na técnica da bateria), momentos de power metal e referências à música árabe
