Yes! This is the standard first video for newbies to Epica. As everybody has pointed out, the European Symphonic Metal scene is insanely interconnected. The lead singer of Epica, Simone Simons, is of course besties with Floor Jansen and they are awesome when they perform together. I will take the opportunity to suggest "Sancta Terra" by Epica to hear them both together at Epica's Retrospect show.
I concur
@@fredriknilsson6042 Going on the Wyldeside on that one my friend!
@@rkempo yes 🤣
I concur
With Floor (Nightwish) and Simone (Epica) you got to know two of the great Dutch symphonic metal singers. There are more to discover:
A unique singer of her own is Sharon den Adel from „Within Temptation“. They are incredible as well. First songs to listen to might be „And we run feat. Xzibit“ (symphonic metal meets rap), „Paradise (What Bout us) feat. Tarja“ (the first singer of Nightwish), „Angels“, „Ice Queen“, „Stand my Ground“....
Charlotte Wessels from „Delain“ is the next to explore: „Masters of Destiny“ is a must. Delain did a couple of songs with Marco from Nightwish like „Sing to me feat. Marco Hietala“
Anneke van Giersbergen (former from The Gathering) did a great duet with Sharon den Adel: Within Temptation „Somewhere“ together with a full orchestra.
Another symphonic metal band to mention is Xandria from Germany. They had for some time another awesome Dutch singer: Dianne van Giersbergen. Try „Nightfallv“.
Greetz from a German-Dutch concert photographer
Dutch symphonic metal band . Simone Simons is the lead singer. Guitarist Mark Jansen does the harsh vocals.
Mark formed the band in 2002,after parting ways with his former band, After Forever. He had co-founded AF, and it was the first band Floor joined at age 16.(Mark and Floor are not related).
This is the title track from their 2nd album, and is often used as the show closer.
Currently touring for their 8th album, Omega. They will be in the USA in Sep and Oct, opening for Sabaton.
For more, try, The Skeleton Key, Beyond the Matrix, Victims of Contingency, Cry For the Moon, Kingdom of Heaven Pt 3, Unchain Utopia, The Essence of Silence. And Floor joined them at the Retrospect 10th anniversary show for 2 songs, Sancta Terra and Stabat Mater Delarosa.
As you can see, they are great live.
More? Their performance of Sancta Terra at their Live Retrospect show.
Noooo….. let her do more epica by there self .
Yeah, sometimes it seems like Floor fans only come to Epica reactions to turn reactors back to Floor, nothing more.
There are some people in the world determined to turn everything into us vs them. If can't be positive just don't leave a comment.
@@RenThraysk Because this happens in many Epica reaction comments. It's supposed to be about Epica and all you can see is Floor, Floor, Floor...
@@cancelled_user She should do a Sancta Terra version without floor, or the studio version. It's not floor who makes that song a better one as some biased people try to convince themselves. Floor just sings parts that Simone wrote and Simone has sung a hundred times already.😉
A lot of the Dutch symphonic metalbands are interconnected: Mark Jansen formed After Forever which has Floor Jansen as their lead singer. Bass player Rob van der Loo of Epica used to play with Delain, a band set up by keyboardplayer Martijn Westerholt and he was an early member of Within Temptation, a band formed by his brother Robert Westerholt and that has as lead singer Sharon Den Adel.
And interconnected to Finland and Scandinavia 😍😍
Floor used to be roommates with the female lead of Epica and they’re good friends.
@@talia6442 That's so cool, I didn't know that, but it makes sense considering their chemistry on stage. I've just begun to explore Epica, it seems like the female singer must have some very high level academic vocal training, similar to Floors, or she's got some amazing natural talent. So far, she strikes me as being more in line with Tarja's purer classical/operatic style than Floor's more versatile fluid style.
@@talia6442 They were never roommates and they are not besties either.
@@iammine8117 This is an interesting interview between the 2 of them. 😊
I cannot remember about her training, but it strikes me she has classical training under her belt for sure! Yes, she does sound more like Tarja to me. 👍
th-cam.com/video/yK0PtS9Rprk/w-d-xo.html
Epica were the first band that introduced me to harsh vocals. It took me a lot of time to adapt because I didn't understand the need or the technique of those sounds, but once I learnt why and how, Epica has introduced me into a world of music I would have never explored before. And of course, Epica are naturally epic!
Please, more EPICA. Much more!
Next: Epica - Unleashed (Official Live)
It's exactly the opposite when it comes to vocals. No harsh vocals at all and lot of Simone's singing + choir.

Yes, Yes, Yes!!! Now you are fully bought in to it...still more to discover. It is all intertwined. Nightwish, Epica, Wintersun, Arch Enemy, Within Temptation, Sabaton...etc

Hello JyngerSlapz! Welcome to the world of EPICA! We are Epicans 🙂
You have no idea what you've just discovered. This band will blow your mind if you keep reacting to them (you definitely should!). This is not some mediocre metal band. Epica is currently the peak of the symphonic metal scene. No other band sounds like Epica. The gorgeous female lead singer is Simone Simons, a classically trained soprano. The growling guy is Mark Jansen, the founder and mastermind of the band. Simone was Mark's GF at the time she joined the band (2002) at the age of 17.
Epica is generally heavier than Nightwish. Both bands are symphonic metal and many people compare them, but they are actually quite different from each other. Epica also incorporate elements of death/black metal into their music. Choir is much more prominent in Epica music. It's almost like the third voice or third character, with their own lyrics which are often in Latin. The duality between Mark's death growls and Simone's angelic soprano is called "beauty and the beast". 4 out of 6 Epica members have degree in music and they all contribute to songwriting. That's why Epica music is so amazing and diverse. Seriously, their musical compositions are top-notch. All lyrics are written either by Mark or Simone. Epica can be heavy, they also have a few more radio-friendly songs, as well as many wonderful ballads that can melt your heart. Acoustic versions of their metal songs are beautiful too.
What you've just watched is one of their heaviest songs, lots of growls and not much female vocals. In most other songs it's the other way around. Mostly Simone with choir, then some growls here and there. If you liked this one, you will like their other songs too.
Can you please tell me your preference? Heavy songs? More mainstream sound? Ballads? Longer epic masterpieces?
Epica have 8 studio albums and about 120 songs, so there's a lot to choose from. That being said, as a hardcore Epican I would have hard times picking top 10 songs by Epica. Maybe top 30 would be easier. That's because they don't have just a few great hits. Every single album is a masterpiece with many amazing songs. You really need to hear many more!
Thank you! I am open to anything really :) Nightwish opened my eyes and ears to a whole different world of metal and I’m thankful for it! Epica is amazing! I was seriously blown away by this song/video🖤🖤
@@JyngerSlapz You're welcome. 🙂 OK, I can't post links because YT keeps deleting them, so I will just give you song titles to copy-paste into search box:
Let's do their very first song from 2002, "Cry For the Moon". It's also one of the most popular/best known songs. There is a beautiful live TV session from 2004 where they performed several songs from their debut album The Phantom Agony (2003). Simone was 19 at the time and she used to sing differently from what you can hear in later years. Her head voice (operatic) was absolutely stunning and very unique. If you ever listen to any opera, you may notice that this is not the standard soprano sound. Some vocal coaches would say it was an immature soprano, but almost everyone who listens to her, absolutely love it!
Below is the exact title for you:
- EPICA - Cry For The Moon HQ HD 4K (draft)
And here, 2013 (Retrospect - 10th anniversary of Epica).
Full orchestra + choir on stage. One of the few Epica songs with no harsh male vocals at all:
- EPICA - Unleashed (OFFICIAL LIVE)
Another one from the Retrospect. Starts off like a ballad, turns into black metal for a moment
- Epica - Chasing The Dragon LIVE Retrospect 2013 HD
Now, I would like to show you how great Epica are, by comparing their metal song with an acoustic version of the same song. You know, only if the original metal song is great, only then it can be converted into a great acoustic version.
So here's one of their more radio-friendly songs with very cool music video (Simone's dirtiest filming), and then below is the acoustic version of the same song. Years are 2012 and 2014. You might even do a "double reaction" and react to both in just one reaction video, maybe?
- EPICA - Storm The Sorrow (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
- Epica Storm The Sorrow (Acoustic version) Pinkpop 2014
And at least one of their wonderful ballads for now. Please, choose the upload by Elimeleh69. It's a great fan-made video.
- Epica - Tides of Time (lyrics)
Enjoy! And please, do it asap 😉
@@JyngerSlapz try Epica + Floor Jansen in the same stage:
th-cam.com/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/w-d-xo.html
Want more from Epica - try
Cry For The Moon
studio version
This band are masterful musicians and thier lyrical content is nothing short of thought provoking
Also, as someone else has mentioned...
Kingdom Of Hevan Pt3
Is literally the apotheosis of symphonic metal composition
This band saved my life. I love them to the Moon and back. Next september 3rd they will have a show celebrating their 20th Anniversary!!!! Respect! 🖤🤘🙏
Love your reaction. By your eyes and facial expression I can tell that you were truly receiving what Epica does to the soul. Keep reacting to them. You can choose between tens of masterpieces, just to tell some different than previous comments: The phantom agony from We will take you with us (beginning of the band) or any from retrospect live (10th anniversary) Unleashed, Chasing the dragon, Serenade of Self-Destruction, The divine conspiracy, Quietus or Design your universe for starters ;)
Thank you...
Next Epica-Chasing the dragon live retrospect 2013 🥰 beautiful song
After Nightwish and Arch Enemy reactions, there were absolutely zero doubts do you like Epica. Your reaction was great when Simone and Mark started to sing 😃 They are the masters of 'Beauty and the Beast' singing. It is really hard to explain how you feel when you have this massive wall of sound - bands instruments + orchestra, Simone floats above everything and all of sudden Mark goes under almost everything. Musical rollercoaster or something.These frontwomens have really changed metal scene a lot in last about 25 years. Tarja (Nightwish's original singer) and Sharon (Within Temptation) are two who you haven't seen yet, but has to be mentioned and i'm sure you check them some point. All these women are ridiculously talented and they sing pop stars to the back wall. Now you have seen both Nightwish and Epica - Epica Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show is easy next step.
You will find a lot of connections within the Symphonic Metal community - the guitarist, who is the growler and counted down from 3, is Mark Jansen who along with Floor Jansen (no relation) were part of the beginnings of After Forever and Floor was also a vocal coach for Epica's lead singer, Simone Simons, and there are clips,o n You Tube, of Simone and Floor doing some incredible duets together live on stage - you are heading down an amazing "Rabbit Hole" - Mark created Epica after he left After Forever
Floor and Simone are best friends 🙂
@@Sonofhroft That's not true. Simone dropped out of highschool when she joined Epica. Contrary some other members of Epica, Simone does not have a higher music education. She however took private singing lessons for 6 years.
@@MarcelCox1 maybe you right i'm not to familiar with Simone just all time hear what she and Floor was besty when they learn somewhere together.
@@Sonofhroft well, it is a popular, but false story that persitently keeps coming up. So I try to correct it whenever I see it.
Simone Simons is the name of the Frontwoman and she and Floor are best friends.
Hi JyngerSlapz, oh boy, you have done it now! :) EPICA are another deep rabbit hole to dive into, Symphonic Metal, the equal to Nightwish but with their own sound and style, as you will discover EPICA are simply incredible, I could go on and on about how great this band is, but I think the best thing to do is to watch another EPICA video, here is one of my favorites, a sci-fi masterpiece and an awesome video too:
EPICA - Universal Death Squad (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO) video link posted below
th-cam.com/video/P_Ys_W7ySkM/w-d-xo.html
Can't see the link this time, mate. It shows there's another post, but it's collapsed and cannot be viewed. Interesting that MisterJ56 can post several links. Have you seen his post?
Hello! Just watched your channel today for first time and I subbed! I love Dutch symphonic metal bands! All these guys and gals have talent to the stars and sadly American’s here know so little of them. I really enjoy Within Temptation, Delain, Nightwish, but I love Epica. Epica just can bring it hard and deep! Simone is sooo good, and so gorgeous! Epica in a lot of their huge gigs plays with major orchestra‘s and choirs as is within temptation. For some reason Nightwish never does and those concerts with orchestras are so amazing I wish NW did. Great reaction and I’m enjoying your channel already!
I applaud your journey through metal, and in particular the women in metal. This has been a lot of fun watching you experience these new bands.
If you want to maybe one day expand to something other than vocals might I suggest one of the best metal guitarists the last decade+ Nita Strauss.
Nita has played in an all girl cover band called The Iron Maidens. One guess who they covered. She plays at LA Ram football games. Played at WrestleMania. Been in Alice Cooper's band, and she was the first and perhaps still the only female to have a custom guitar through Ibanez (the Jiva)
Maybe a good song to start with is her Collab with David Draiman (Disturbed) "Dead Inside". However that is not even close to Nita's limits. Hope you enjoy
I concur. Nita kicks ass!!!
Next Epica: “The Essence of Silence” Live ! 🤘
Great job with your reaction and thoughts on Consign To Oblivion live performance from Epica . Simone Simons has a Amazing Voice and the Guys in the band Kick A## on there instruments and the Guy Singer has a very strong Vocals.
One of my favorite reactions for this song. Love how you're caught off guard by their music. They truly deserve more.
Kingdom of heaven part 3 next! I love this band so much. I think they have so many better songs than this too. They’re so great
Epica Is simply EPIC!!!!
Welcome to Epica, Nightwish's darker, heavier cousin. Their catalog is deep and varied and includes ballads and acoustic pieces as well as heavier songs like this. Next should be something from their 10th anniversary Retrospect show with live orchestra and choir. Design Your Universe, Unleashed, Chasing the Dragon are my favorites and of course Sancta Terra with Floor as a guest singer. For a ballad Rivers music video or Tides of Time. One of my favorites is their lead singer Simone's cover of Part of Your World from Little Mermaid, th-cam.com/video/aau6nI04G9k/w-d-xo.html. She is a real life Ariel! Also love her in Ayreon's Daniel's descent into Transitus Medley playing the sassy Angel of Death. th-cam.com/video/ozmTXh2CBWw/w-d-xo.html
React to epica design your universe live retrospect
EPICA FOR THE WIN !
Love that you show your emotions when you are moved. Being that surprised by music is priceless. Enjoy the ride. 😊
Welcome to Epica, thanks
Epica is one of the best!
I can't wait to See Epica live in October! My favorite band for sure. Be sure to check out Cry for the Moon and Chasing the Dragon
Hi JyngerSlapz, If you like surprises, then try this masterpiece of our Dutch genius Arjen Anthony Lucassen with 11 awesome singers (I won't spoil who they are, but i think you will recognize some of them 😉): Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down. Here is the link to the video: th-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/w-d-xo.html
You will be blown away by all the talented musicians and singers! You won't be dissappointed....I PROMISE! Hope to see your reaction to this masterpiece soon and for now....Greetings, stay safe and lots of love from The Netherlands, Martin.
I concur.
As do I, concur!
And I, concur
Love the band, Simone Simons is my uncontested nr1 singer. Enjoy exploring more 😁.
Epica - essence of silence or Epica - design your universe (live retrospect). Two songs i would sugest.
European Metal is in a league of it's own
yeeeessssssssss ! Epica !!!! this evening is in my mind for a long time because I was in ! an incredible gift of my friends for my birthday.
Try "Design your universe" for retrospec live. amazing...
Great reaction! I'm not a huge fan of extreme, distorted vocals but I can appreciate the time and effort these singers put in to master this type of singing. Especially when they can do it without injuring their vocal cords. However I do enjoy symphonic metal with a strong, powerful female lead singer. Nightwish is my favorite but I also think Voices of Atlantis, Evanesence and Sirenia are worth listening to.
Good evening girl! You haven't seen anything yet, they are marvelous ! Dive into them...
Epica are my favorite! I recommend “The Skeleton Key - official video" I'm sure you're going to like it.
Have tickets to see them in Atlanta in Oct, with Sabaton...so excited !
More epica!
F!cking Awesome more more more !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You rock Jynger !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i would like to See more Epica reactions
Abyss of Time and Beyond the Matrix are in heavy rotation on my playlist.
Beyond the Matrix - Live at the Zenith !
Your third "european chest of wonders" will be Ayreon, the project of a dutch multi-instrumentist that delivers great music (metal/prog/folk) and have multiple guests to perform on his albums. Most of which are concept-albums (stories/rock operas). Both Floor and Simone are regular "contributors". ;-) So go for Ayreon with confidence. Live version of Everybody Dies is a good start. Enjoy! 🙂
Best band ever 🤘😎🤘🇳🇱
Hard to go back to commercial crap on the radio after hearing these guys 😅
I came back to watch this one. :) I love how overwhelmed you were by this. I know you have tons of music on your list, but please don't forget one of the best symphonic metal bands around. I would love to see your reaction to Kingdom of Heaven Part 3 from the Omega Alive virtual concert. That is Epica's equivalent to The Greatest Show on Earth.
Powerful
Ah brilliant. Wicked !!
Cheers from tha Low Countries !
Awesome to see you are discovering these talented women of metal with these kick ass bands, More to come for sure!, You should try checking out the band Unleash the Archers if you can...cheers!
Hi Ginger. Your smile is infectious. Your reactions priceless! Suggestion, look at Epica's Scanta Terra featuring Floor Jenson duetting with Simone Symons. Two goddesses of rock in a fantastic performance. Best wishes.
i love Epica
fascinating thing about Épica is the mix between Simone's operatic voice with Mark's deep Death growls giving an atmosphere like Beauty and the beast... their music is obviously heavier with Death Metal tendencies... not to mention their characteristic sounds Medieval throughout their musical career...
I recommend The essence of Silence live official video or Monopoly on Truth intro live at retrospect... with live Symphonic Orchestra and choir
Great reaction thanks. Gr from Rotterdam
Loving your reactions! hope you keep reacting to epica. Recommendations: Within temptation, Haggard, Stratovarius, Sonata Arctica, Rhapsody of fire, Helloween!
Nice! Check out design your universe and unleashed live retrospect as well 😀
I am enjoying watching your reactions. This is my first listen to EPICA. Have been following your Nightwish reactions, which are 🔥 BTW.
Hi Royceanne? Did you like it? Epica have many wonderful songs. This one was one of their heaviest. 🙂
@@cancelled_userI'm not a big fan of the heavier stuff but I will certainly give a listen to their catalog. I have been really interested in checking out bands I am just now getting introduced too.

Loved your reaction. And don't worry .. every person I have seen that started to discover the rich and talented European metal scene is a joy to see. I wish I could forget everything and discover them for the first time again. You are at the start of a great discovery road. Enjoy it and all the luck and love for your channel x
Thank you very much 😊❤️it’s truly been a blessing
waiting your reaction on "Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live" )))
A band that is so appropriately named!
Another band you should check out is called Unleash the Archers and their song Tonight We Ride.
Simone is just a gem. Watch her do the Little Mermaid song solo. Watch her toe to toe with Floor in Sancta Terra or in Ayreon Day That The World Breaks Down.
Brilliant reaction.... lead singer Simone is great friends with Floor from Nightwish. Check out Sancta Terra live at Retrospect Concert and Stabat Mater Delarosa from same. It'll blow your mind. Loads of great tracks from that concert such as Unleashed and Design Your Universe. But also check out Essence of Silence live in Brussels. You're getting close to watching The Day That The World Breaks Down by Aeyreon too.... keep going! 🤘💕
Watched a few of your vidoes now, you seem genuine. Not many reactors out there who are, and maybe you fooled me, maybe not. Regardless you got my sub. Keep them coming!
welcome in the Epica family 🙂
I see many new Epicans in this comment sections. But why only here? Never seen you in other Epica reactions comments :)
@@Ministry_0f_Truth I've commented in as many reactors channels as i saw 🙂. And I'm an Epica fan since "We will take you with us" 🙂
@@mihaipetcu3996 Hm, I don't remember you. Do you include links in your posts? It's possible that YT hides your posts from other readers/commenters.
@@Ministry_0f_Truth I don't include links but there are indeed many comments and mine can get lost. I don't comment much either. But just as a test, I've commented 11 months ago on "Epica "Consign To Oblivion" REACTION & ANALYSIS by Vocal Coach / Opera Singer", can you find it?

You are my fav metal head your cool and passionate love hanging and watching metal vids keep rocking
So many great Dutch queens Simone,Floor ,Charlotte wessel of Delian ,Anneke van Giersbergen,Sharon Den Adel ,Anoke to name but a few
Hi. I just found your channel. I always enjoy watching the reaction of those who experience bands like Epica and Nightwish for the first time. Recommending the band Temperance: Pure Life Unfolds and My Demons Can't Sleep
video tip : Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show
simone and floor sing together on santa terra live
5 november epica time 🤘🙏
epica is touring together with kamelot this fall in the states. next one please react to epica with floor doing sancta terra
I like Epica.
This is one of their best. Your Jinjer song was one of their popular but medicore songs. Try 'Mediator'.
Simone the singer is good friends with floor jansen lead singer of nightwish and she has sung with epica before sancta Terra is one of those songs I think you'd like it along with epica they have a full orchestra it a special performance God bless
Don't worry if your mouth falls open in awe you have beautifull dentalware !!!
I think you'll love Epica-Sancta terra feat. Floor 😍😁
Great reaction. If you get a chance sometime you might want to check out the "band" Ayreon. I recommend the song The Day the World Breaks Down. It's the brainchild of Arjen Lucasson (sp?) who plays guitar, bass, keyboards, and writes just about everything. Then add a few other musicians and about a dozen singers (that are chosen to play specific roles on each record) and you have Ayreon. Very different from things like Epica and Nightwish, but I think you'll enjoy it. Plus, Arjen types things about the song throughout the video.
One of the harshest first 😄. Epica's diversity is huge. By the way Simone was made for ballads. So if you like please react to "Run for a fall" th-cam.com/video/qU1q7uOFXUI/w-d-xo.html you will loose your mind, because ahm yes! IT IS the same band. Trust me 😄
And next a two-fer....Epica (and Simone), WITH Floor (Floor and Simone are besties) AND a full orchestra at Epica's Retrospect 10th Anniversary concert ...
"Sancta Terra" : th-cam.com/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/w-d-xo.html
Stabat Mater Dolorosa: th-cam.com/video/nhtOORYTGx8/w-d-xo.html
Oh man, I love watching when a reactor is speechless. Made my day. Can't wait to see more reactions to Epica, and of course Nightwish. Will be interesting to see if you check out Sabaton and Within Temptation. Next up, "Sancta Terra" with Floor.
Got to be sancta terra with Floor and Simone from Epica. You won't know what to do with yourself!
SIMON Simons starts her Classic Vocal Training with 15 years. . Behind listen to the Nightwish Album Oceanborn from 1998. Simone like to sing like Tarja Turunen . But to day Simone have her one singing style . SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST SOPRANOS IN METALL . WHEN YOU LIKE TO HERE WHEN Simone sing with her Best Maid who this best maide is check out Epica live Retrospect show 2013 Santa Terra and Stabat Mata Dolorosa . And you have here SIMONS best Maid sing . You K ow her . Have fun and By the way you like Consign to Oblivion and you mean this is havy than check out Kindom of Haven live in Mexico 2014 warning this is 14min Deth Metall fun 😁
If you follow Simone and Floor also has worked with Arjen on his Ayreon projects. That's where I was introduced to other great artist from Europe. The day the world breaks down.
I first of this band 2 years ago when I would turn myself in to jail. Lol. Love them.
Epica is addicting.
Having grown up with 3 sisters and my mom, the fact that "women are amazing" was beat into me... daily.
But Simone and Floor and Tarja and Elize and Alissa and Angela and Vicki and Noora and ... oh that list just goes on and on.
Nice thing is, they are creating music at a faster clip than all of us can listen to it.
This is a great time to be alive !!!
I think if Mozart heard this he would just demand the ranges of those instruments and vocalists and then produce basically exactly this again with only minor changes. Remember Don Giovanni, Wolfgang could write more badass than his audience was ready for. Now the audience is ready!
Ok so not to be weird but you look like a cross between Lindsey Gort and Heather Graham and I cant unsee it lmao anyways cool reactions!
If you'd like to continue your journey of discovering more of the underappreciated women of metal (at least in the states), might I suggest "UNLEASH THE ARCHERS - Awakening (Full Band Playthrough Video)". They're a power metal band and the whole band are amazing musicians. The vocalist (Brittney Slayes) is a huge Sci-Fi/Fantasy nerd who writes all of their songs as if they were interconnected chapters in a book(album) telling her own epic fantasy stories.
Welcome to the Wonderful World of Symphonic Metal. First Nightwish and now Epica... your journey is will on its way. But there is much more to discover; so much more! When you get around to it I suggest that for something a little different you check out an American Power / Symphonic Metal band from Tampa Florida called Kamelot. They are one of the only Symphonic Metal bands that I have come across so far with a Male Lead Vocalist, Tommy Karevik, who happens to be from Stockholm, Sweden, and he kicks!
I'd recommend that as a start you might check out "KAMELOT - Liar Liar ft. Alissa White-Gluz (Official Video) | Napalm Records", which as the title says also features a cameo performance by Alissa White-Gluz, lead vocalist of Arch Enemy!
Enjoy 🤘
Little trivia: Epica's Simone Simons is married to Kamelot's keyboard player.Oliver Palotai
@@mad6457 Very cool. I did not know that. I did know that Floor and Simone are apparently Besties.
I see you have found another great band. Try Jinjer " Perennial" live at Wacken. Love seeing you discover new music. Love yor channel
Buy a box of tissues and listen to Epica tides of time...
Lovely reaction once again. I know you love Floor (who doesn't!!) but as others have suggested already, a good recommendation is to react to 'Sancta Terra' by Epica during one of their shows with the lovely Simone here - her good friend - accompanied not only by the band but with an orchestra too - it's something special! Also (if you like something a little quieter and classical) they do another duet together, 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa' by Pergolesi (who was dying when he wrote it - and you can hear that in the Beautiful music) which is definitely worth a listen too. Don't forget the female led bands I mentioned before - Babymetal, Lovebites, Unleash the Archers, Amaranthe, Beyond the Black, Arch Enemy, Jinjer etc.
Oh and if your trying to space out nightwish reactions (why would you??), Then unleash the archers with the awakening is a brilliant Interlude. Another amazing female fronted band to be obsessed with!
Try Beyond The Black (band), she's another insane performer.
Your such a pretty momma jynger😍🌹
Well done....if this one stuns you.....well....I think you need to do some additional stuff from Epica to get deeper into it.........Sancta Terra togehter with Floor Jansen should be next.....ohhhh...and did I hear someone yell in the Background WITHIN TEMPTATION ?!?!....Put it on the list.....so much wonderful stuff to discover...
But never forget: All Hail Queen Floor !
See you on the next one.
