Last December, Dutch symphonic metal giants EPICA surprised their fans with a very special covers EP release entitled, EPICA VS. Attack On Titan. The release, which was only available in Japan, featured metal versions of the theme songs from the highly successful manga series with 70 Million copies in print turned worldwide aired anime "Attack On Titan". Today, the band announced the EP will be available outside Japan on July 20th via Nuclear Blast Records.
EPICA VS. Attack On Titan was recorded during the summer of July of 2017 at Sandlane Recording Facilities by Joost van den Broek. The original songs, which were influenced by the music of EPICA, were composed by Revo of popular Japanese band LINKED HORIZON. For the EP, tracks were adapted by EPICA and produced by Joost van den Broek. The choir arrangements and scoring were completed by keyboardist Coen Janssen who also handled the orchestral arrangements with Joost van den Broek.

LYRICS
Nos rapti sumus aut tamen raptores?
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Crimson Bow and Arrow
Waiting for the storm won't help you
Just the will to fight can change you
Clean your weapons, blow the dust off
Fear and prayers will never save us
We can't hide our pride behind fear
We will not let them be this near
In the end our strength unites us
Just the will to fight will save us
No, we will never ever fail
We stand up and we fight for the moment of the truth
Stand up and fight for their demise
We won't surrender
Day and night dividing the legions
Ignorance will show its weakness
Lasting peace an abandoned illusion
Blinded by trust in a twilight zone
Day and night disguising their secrets
Ignorance will kill the fearless
Offerings of reckless courage
Freedom for us all
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Fear the bow
The humility of imprisonment
Fight with crimson bow and arrow
Far away from the solemn castle walls
Jäger's hunting prey to death now
Diving into the instincts of the night
Red is piercing through the twilight
Soldiers with their wings of freedom will attack
Free the unrelenting slaves right now
Right now!
Not knowing the names of our
Broken trees and the trampled flowers
The fallen bird awaits the breeze
No one will guide you
Everlasting calm of the herds
It is but a vast illusion
Failing freedom of our dying wolves
Marks the era of confusion
Praying won't help
Freedom and our way of life
These are but a vast illusion
Fight for your land
When the darkness hits our crying wolves
It marks the era of conclusion
"Those who only complain about their helplessness will not change a thing.
The boy will pick up the black sword.
Hate and anger are a two-edged blade
And soon it will show its teeth."
All that ends this brutal game is not the weapon nor the skill.
Reach out for the desire and awaken your will to kill
Go and free your mind. Immerse yourself in unstoppable killer instinct.
Bring back the hope, illuminate the darkness
Stand up and fight for their demise
We won't surrender now
Enthrone the evil in disguise
You can't defend her
Day and night dividing the legions
Ignorance will show its weakness
Lasting peace an abandoned illusion
Blinded by trust in a twilight zone
Day and night disguising their secrets
Ignorance will kill the fearless
Offerings of reckless courage
Freedom for us all
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Crimson Bow and Arrow
On the battle
Here we die as heroes
Red as fire
Hearts will bleed to death

Me listening to song while writing: This sounds like Attack on Titan.
Me checking the video: This IS Attack on Titan!
literally the same xd
Literally me
When I first listened to it I thought “this is a brilliant cover of Crimson” *sees band* “OH OF COURSE IT WAS EPICA”
Same ｡ﾟ( ≧▽≦)ﾟ｡
For me was the same reaction jajajaj
And this is how metalheads get into anime.
or how weebs get into metal.
Not exactly how I did, Black Heaven got me into it.
Or play Guilty Gear to become both a metalhead and a weeb.
Mayhaps
Most metalheads are into anime anyway in my experience.
we should thank to Revo, the leader of the Linked Horizon who asked this to become true.
Revo likes Epica? Holy shit
@@raccoonchild Yes, I heard he was inspired by Epica when he wrote the opening songs for AoT.
@@melissamcdonald7214 Interesting! All his songs for SnK remind me of his main work (Sound Horizon) so something like this would've never crossed my mind. Thought he just worked his usual magic when he made those songs
@@melissamcdonald7214 Do you remember the source? It'd be nice to see that video!
Can u see them doing the song dress by buck tick for trinity blood ?
Whaaaaaaaat
Hey lol
Oh hey it's you
you should use this music in one of your videos dude
My man
I didn't know Steve Aoki listened to Epica
When your favorite band covers music from your favorite anime.😍
Raven Scott I totally agree
@@andrebergeron2976 Same Here, this is just Amazing
Aren't my case.
Raven Scott Yeeeees
Agree
Holy shit you guys killed it! *Salute*
@Ryder Chandler What’s up with those random bot messages lately? 😅
Okay seriously, how did I only just now find out about this masterpiece of a cover? One of my favorite metal groups covering one of the greatest anime OPs ever made? Sheer excellence!!
Story time: I was driving to work listening to my Pandora station, when the display says the title of the song is crimson bow and arrow. I think to myself "ok, it starts off powerful sounding and epic. Ok it's by Epica, so it's more than likely going to be good. Ooh this is really good, but why does it sound familiar?" Cue the big power intro, and my thoughts lost all coherence, "holy shit this is awes- is this- Epica did a- HOLY FUCK THIS IS EPIC!"
SAME THOOO
Same here !
Huge Attack on Titan fan here, I approve of this.
StoneXL sammme! Sooo fan girling here
Same
well, it was done by living legends, even Linked Horizon's Revo approved it! he actually asked Epica to do this!
Huge Epica fan here, I approve of this cover :P
@@DarkAnarchy666 Same.

god damn!! i hear valkyries
This will be in top comments
The lyrics are actually way better than the originals. Proper grammar, metrum and a good singer can do wonders.
@@Ruhrpottpatriot The lyrics are, I would imagine, quite grammatically correct and conforming to a meter in their original language.
Things often translate badly when translated literally. I think thats probably true of most anime theme lyrics.
Epica, instead of trying to hamfistedly translate the originals, chose to write new lyrics in English which conform thematically and emotionally to the originals, and to the story and setting of Attack On Titan. A very smart choice.
very different from the original, still a banger
Mi lado Otaku y rockero se han fusionado y agradecen está belleza
Supremely Excelent!!! My Heavenly Charismatic Fairy of The lustful Niponese Art 😍😍😍!!!
Here in my Masterful Case Happens some similar! Which is the next one:
My Macho side or My vergudo Side & My artistic Musical of all the fucking world Side wants to be fusionated with your over excited burning Feminine body just because to created something beautiful in yours Hypnotic but Delicious intimate.
So try to plan it!!! 😉😉😉😘😘😘🌹🌹🌹
...There is a legend of fearless heroes that shall unite the two ancient nations, the Otaku Empire and the Metalhead Kingdom...
DUDE, I love this! Metal and Anime have always gone hand in hand with me!
Well I certainly didn't see this coming! Holy shit, can't wait to hear more!
There is more, the album's been out for a while now
It has? Says July 20th O.o
It's been out in Japan for a while. It's pretty damn good.
NICE! Thank you!
the songs are:
"Crimson bow and Arrow"
"Wings of freedom" (must listen to this one!)
"If inside these walls was a house" (very neat ballad esque!)
"Dedicate your heart"
and the instrumentals for all 4
I remembered asking Simone on her Instagram when she went live what is her favorite anime and she said attack on Titan just a few months before this was even mentioned :) (during the time, I had no idea about this EP)
mystikXgoddess For real? when was that? you remember?
That's fucking awesome!
Lucero SanPer yep! I think it was around the beginning of this year I think, (during the month of April) Simone’s sometimes used to log online live and I happened to catch her on the right moment just before they were going on their world tour at the time
But this was all knew already in april
Juanjo Santacruz at this time, I wasn’t up to date with their plans and projects so I was also unaware that the band was doing this EP. therefore, it was brand news to me and also I was super excited when I heard that she even knows anime.
Shingeki No EPICA ??? 😀
Just perfect, this is gonna be the name of the 3rd season!
進撃のエピか
Nellorax.
Lit
epicattack on titan ;D
Simone No Kyiojin
Epica Vs Attack on Titan? That means Epica is gonna fight attack on titan? wow I dont know who to root for but I hope goku makes a cameo
No , It's a Cover
@@nesquikrajadao woosh
Jjk
Linked Horizon: So YoU hAvE cHoSeN dEaTh
@@user-bg1uc1gm3q Revo (Linked Horizon Leader): Hey guys, can you do the English covers of my songs please?
Epica: Say no more!
Simone's voice is just perfect 😍
They just can’t and won’t stop producing masterpieces, right? From the holographic principle, to the solace system, and now this!!! What a creative and amazing band.
RavenLight they kick ass.
this is actually linked horizon's song, and both version are just sooooo awesome
This is a cover. Still awesome though
Have you listened to previous albums? I think they were always amazing
Kristina uršič yes, of course I have! I just mentioned their more recent works, but every one of their albums is obviously a masterpiece on its own! My personal favorite is requiem for the indifferent for example, even though it’s not most people’s fave. I think it’s so deep and intelligent!
Nunca fui fanático de una banda o grupo musical, es el primero que amo tanto, lo sinfónico con el metal es más que perfecto, I love you Epica.
Es un buen cover ,pero no es para tanto hay mejores canciones de esta banda que dejan muy por detrás a esta canción especialmente sus dos primeros álbumes
Exacto. Este cover es fantástico, pero Epica tiene otros álbumes que son muy buenos entre ellos The Pantom Agony, The Divine Conspiracy, Design your Universe o The Holographic Principle
I normally don't like non-Japanese versions of anime songs, but DAMN this one is ridiculously amazing
Oh, I wasn't prepared !
Me neither ;D
Illidan Stormrage: You are not prepared!
\,,/(>__
nobody
What? 🧠💥
Simone's voice........ i don't know what to say....... perfect ❤️👌😍
Not just her voice *o*
Her voice reflects her beauty :)
Nic jiného k tomu říct ani nejde. Snad jen, že je to doslova andělský hlas.
I agree with all of you ! I just want to say : Viva Epica 8D
She is absolutely amazing
This is the best thing my ears have ever heard.
My senior archery trainer just recommended Epica to me and I was just "Well, just have a look at...HOLY...HOW...Attack on Titan!!!!" xD The excitement is real.
nobody :
me : okay I’m desperately waiting for them to cover my war/boku no sensou as well
Bro! If only. They KILLED it with the covers they did.
Same here bro
"Give them an inch, they'll demand a mile"
Always coming back to listen to this masterpiece of a song ❤
So much work right here… Sad that some people dont realize it and give the support this band deserves. Literally Fucking perfect. One of the best songs i've ever listened to. GREAT JOB
**fangirling**
This is shingeki no epica !!!
My dreams came true...
Epica has such good taste. No wonder they're my favorite smyphonic metal band.
I got the Japanese import about a month after it released because I'm a bit Epica obsessed, but cool they are releasing it world wide. Everyone deserves to be able to get their hands on this awesomeness
Is it really obsession or just knowledge of that Epica is the best? Either way, I'm right there with you.
I haven't listened to EPICA in a couple years and I find them doing covers for theme songs of good anime. I was not expecting this. Loving it.
When two fandoms collide
Just fell in love with the anime and his theme a few months ago and you realise a wish that I wanted to hear an epic metal band covering this song !
Metalesia S. and the legendary Epica above all!
This is the best stuff to come from Epica in almost a decade. Thank you.
I'm not a fan of SNK but this cover really makes me want to start watching it.
@Ben van der Riet Shingeki No Kyojin
Doo it please. It’s amazing
do you mean attack on titan? it's definitely worth watching i am a hardcore fan since the beginning
it's the most fierce anime
Did you watch it?
My body could not handle the AWESOMENESS of this cover......
If there's anything I admire the most about EPICA, is how inspiring their lyrics are. They've always gotten me out of shadowy times and led me to believe and see new, lightened paths.
Night Shade but the lyrics are the translation of the original song
this is basically a cover though!
Watch out whom you might cut with that edge
Night Shade I feel exactly the same as you
##### The Phantom Agony ##### Exactly every album has the best lyrics. The Phantom Agony is probably my fave album its raw and orchestral masterclass.
Finales del 2021 y hoy, HOY descubrí que Epica hizo un cover de SNK. Imperdonable no haberlo sabido antes.
SÓ A INTRODUÇÃO DESTA FAIXA JÁ ROUBA A CENA!!! EPICA TEM BASTANTE CONTEÚDO!!!
Do you know that there will be Hollywood adaptation of 'Attack on Titan'? It will be directed by Andy Muschietti ('It' director) too!
Hope they'll use this as the soundtrack. Great cover, good job guys!
Genial mi vida tiene otra señal de esperanza yeaaaaaaaaah!
These covers have each band member at their best. This is also, Simone's best vocal performance since Design your Universe. Love all albums but some go beyond others in multiple areas. This ep goes beyond in multiple areas. Loved it and I hope some of this musicality and intensity appears in their next album.
"Enthrone the devil in disguise, you can't defend her"
Finally makes sense after watching season 3. I see Mark Jansen reads the manga.
He's actually a big fan
Holy shit, no fucking way! I love AoT and Epica, I never could've imagined they'd cover these songs. AWESOMEEEE! \m/
I don't think I'll be this excited even when I see the eyes of my first-born son!
Es tan buena que al escucharla dan ganas de enfrentar a los Titanes aunque sea para servir de señuelo xD
"Now enthrone the devil in
disguise you can't defend her"
As an attack on Titan fan and reading those lyrics it's just so sad and beautiful. That's Erens denial of Annie it's just BEAUTIFUL if you're not a fan of the show I suggest you watch. The lyrics describe the amazing beauty of this anime. WHY ANNIE WHY!!!😭
Legend has it that there is another squad led by Epica, even more intense than that of the Survey Corps.
Epica > Thanos
What they hell does this even have to do with Thanos for Marvel?
who´s thanos?
Thanos is a villian in Avenger Infinity Wars
Thanos, The Mad Titan. I see the connection.
Thanos quién te conoce?
when my friend
introduced me epica for the first time i immediately said their song sounds like attack on titan oppening theme.And now i am in love with this song
This song is a masterpiece
Simplesmente Fantástico!!!!!
No me canso de escuchar este EP, dos cosas que adoro: "Attack On Titan" y Epica, los sueños se hacen realidad 🖤
P.D:
Mi favorita es: "Dedícate Your Heart"
Lucero SanPer , tienes razón ‼️, nunca creí algo así qué emoción ;-;🖤🤘
Sofia Cardenas Cardenas Siiiii, es perfecto 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
no.....esta es la intro de la 1er temporada.
la verdad que EPICA + ATACK OF TITANS es una combinacion magnifica.......los sueños son posibles.....tuve el honor de ir a verlos a un show en mi ciudad y tenerlo a metros.
Ahora solo tengo la esperanza que hagan WINGS OF FREEDOM - intro nº2 de la 1er temporada
Num.Alchemist No sabemos, grabaron canciones únicamente de las temporadas pasadas, si las van a incluir en la nueva es un misterio, solo son cuatro canciónes.
Love all... Thanks for everything EPICA. ❤️
OMG i was playing WoW and let the youtube choose the songs to i hear while playing, and when its start.. WOW that was an INCREDIBLE SURPRISE. Well done Epica !
I heard this on my way home today from work so freaking good
I have never watched the anime but I sure love this album. Been listening to it non stop for 4 days now.
So, I'm new to Epica and this came on via autoplay from Nightwish last night.. this isn't the first Epica song I've heard. And the fact that it's a fucking cover to AoT's first opening makes me love them automatically. An entire EP of AoT covers? YES PLEASE
Desde o primeiro momento que eu ouvi Epica, até o momento atual, eles não lançaram sequer uma música que eu não tenha gostado, ansiosa pelo novo EP. Uma das melhores experiências pela qual eu passei, foi ter ido a um show deles e vê-los fazer uma performance espetacular de perto.
How apropos is the line: "Ignorance will kill the fearless" now a days.
What a time to be alive! Epica making an amazing cover of my favorite anime theme song. Next thing I wanna see is Sabaton making a cover of Fubuki theme :p
"The world is merciless, and it's also very beautiful."
I'd buy an album of Simone Simons signing literally anything - nursery rhymes, TV show theme songs, even a Van Halen 3 remake of all things. Anything.
Holy shit, did not see this coming. Couldn't be more proud and excited.
Já ouvi isso umas 500 vezes e ainda me dá arrepios!
At first, reading the title i was like, i saw this title somewhere. Never thought it would be a cover of Guren no Yumiya 😂
This is definitely the single best musical piece I have heard this year.
Merece ser escuchada mil veces, me encanta
Hicieron un gran trabajo chicos! No dejo de escucharlo. Me encanta! 💕
This came on Pandora yesterday and I had to pull over.
I really wish this is true
@@whotookbabyblue It was true. I was driving and pulled over to look at my phone. Took a screenshot of the song so I could look it up later, and then enjoyed the rest of the song. True story! I pre-ordered the disc that night.
@@Splattertube what a madlad, responded to a comment that someone made on a comment they made 2 years ago
As a fan of Attack on Titan, the fact that she was able to work with them and make this album is just so awesome. I can't wait till July 20th to get this album!!
I don't know which one of the members in Epica is a fan of Attack on Titan, but I sure as hell am grateful to him/her this exists.
Keyboard solo, finally
This is insane! Despite not liking the anime, the OP song is very good. But this... Does put a smile on my face.
Kell Alves same. Not a big fan of anime but soundtrack is insane
wait hold up , whats there to dislike about attack on titan?
Karam Dabagh i dont know. Love some anime but attack on titan for me is just a little bit to weard and not a fan of those tipes☺
I like animes as well, my problem is with Attack on Titan. I, myself, don't like how the anime/manga treats the viewer/reader, telling you some kind of conspiracy theory and at the end it just sounds like fan service from the author himself. Coming up like every action packed shonen anime/manga who wants to be something greater with crazy theories and making meaningless plot conspiracies (huuuge nod to Evangelion) after they solve who are the Armored Titan and Giant Titan. I read the manga up untill today, and i find it to be better than the anime. Although i don't like the manga as well. I read it for the sake of having knowledge to speak about it and to know how the story will end (some cases can actually save the entire story if well written). Well... but this is just my shitty opnion and input about it. Then again, the Opening and this Epica song are truly epic.
The thing with me is I don't like anime but Attack on Titan is one exception
This Is Why I Love Epica They Make Covers about Everything!
the last crusadeから来ました。
このバージョンもすごい好きです。
原曲よりも荘厳さが増してる気がします。
Gonna be playing this on full blast when the final chapter comes out.
Amazing! You guys should also do Vogel Im Kafig and the Armored Titan Theme.
Holy crap, a cover of Vogel im Kafig would really be something to hear...
This song was already "right up their alley" x3 AMAZING cover
Freaking AWESOME! One of the best bands doing ATTACK ON TITAN MUSIC!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssss! I've been waiting for this since the announcement on Twitter. Sooo excited!
3:51 LEGENDARY
¡Cómo me gustaría que EPICA hiciera una de las canciones de la última temporada de Shingeki no Kyojin!
El mundo se iría al carajo épicamente.
I swear to god 2:32 always gives me chills
OMFG!!!!!!.......This is GOLD for a metal and anime fan like me!!!!!...... Lol
Maes,yo me la encontré escuchando un recopilatorio de Epica y me sale con esa canción y me dije"yo te conozco"
Listening to this again to prepare me for season 4 because shit is about to get real.
You ever listen to something so epic, your heart rate increases?
Yeah, that just happened to me.
This sounds amazing. I still think it would sound better with the German parts still in German but man this is great.
5starid I mean those lyrics are awesome, especially the fake lyrics iykwim xD
aysha ooms potato pizza!
5starid "having sex with the bees and the eagles"
Yeeesss! 🤘 🔥🎸
My favorite band and my favorite anime.... I'm happy!!!
I remember when "shingeki no kyojin" came out and I heard the OP I thought "this song is of the style of epica (I don´t think I'm the only one), it would be wonderful if she sang it" and look at it here, I could not contain the emotion when youtube notified me one by one the songs
Puta madre, todo lo que tocan lo vuelven increíble
Eren will definitely like it
ghouma ahmed Killing Titans at the rythm of this song :)
that would be awesome :D
Excellent song and symphonic metal from Epica
When I hear Epica (Cry for the moon) and Shingeki no Kyojin opening son Guren no Yumiya, always I thought that Epica, could be sing this songs.... This is Epic
Amazing!! The best cover of this song!
I have no words to describe how awesome & amazing this cover is!
Survey Corps: **play this song across the cavalry charge**
Titans: Where does this final boss music come from?
If Hollywood make live action Attack on Titans ,they must hire EPICA for Soundtrack
Nah, I wouldn't trust Hollywood butchering stuff like they did with Death Note
Either way, I do want Epica featured
