additionally epica are the Masters of adding light and shade into their music because of one moment epica can be very heavy and the next moment it can be very melodic and symphonic. this is a true skill as not many bands can pull this off but epica do this expertly.
this is one of the best videos I've ever seen epica are the Masters. mark is absolutely one of the very best when it comes to producing riffs. the complexity and arrangement of instrumentals and vocals makes epic one of the very best bands ever concepted there are not many bands that can produce so much complexity in their music there are so many different levels and a lot you don't even realise when listening that's why epica are f****** incredible. it's a shame because in England people stereotype bands like epica they think all metal has to be extremely heavy but I would say if that's the case then you're not a true metal fan because you're being close-minded and it's pure ignorance on their behalf because epica are the f****** Masters. epica is the band that I've seen the most around 10 times if I could see them a million times I would. lml
Mark Jansen is a great artist in every single way. A true artist who does not do it all for the money. I feel that they really truly do it for the music and that they really enjoy what they do. You can tell because of all the time they spend on the music, they bring along their Orchestra and their choir on many shows on their tours. I don't know if they bring them on every show though. It cost a lot of money to pay all those people and to transport them also and meet their other needs. I can only imagine what all this must cost. That's one of the biggest reasons why I admire Epica so much. That, and their music is fucking phenomenal!🎤🎵👋🎸❤ And did I mention that Mark is really really hot? Man candy too! Bonus!
y la abuelita lo veia con su grupo antes practicar y él pensaba que no prestaba atencion a la musica o a la letra .... pero el modifico la cancion y de inmediato notó esto su abuelita asi que si estaba escuchando su musica :)
Well, that was cool! As an amateur composer myself I can see how that would be a fun song to write... all the different parts. As a listener, I thought it got a bit too drawn-out, especially the "groovy" part, but it is not bad. I especially liked the beginning and the heavier parts. And I might end up adding "Sonar" to my list of composing tools after seeing that one of the world's great composers is using it. Just hope it uses a USB mic unlike Reason!
my perception of epica has changed entirely. Haha months ago I thought they were atheists who hated religeous persons, though even then I had my doubts with songs such as this. Epica will will always be number 1 epica
There's a diference bettween anti religious and anti spiritually. They dont like how religious doctrine make some people extremist followers that can even harm other ppl becouse what a priest say or a book full of dust. Thats why i hate religion too, wich doesn't mean i dont think there is a god or something that create us and this universe. And by the way, if someone hate religion, it doesn't mean it hate religious ppl. Some ppl are religious and can think for their own and will no be ships for a insane priest or a book that say some ppl have to be killed or some shit like that. I hate religion becouse i belive that in is core was designed to lead unstable minds and make them do what the roler wants. I think we where being lied about this, religion is not spirituality, both things are diferent things. And i think that too much ppl where missleaded to believe that spirituality can only be found on religion, wich is way wrong in my humble opinion.
.la primera parte de un cientifico que descubre algo y que nadie le cree y se burlan de él . la gente deberia tener la mente abiertas a cosas nuevas... la segunda parte se trata de la experiencias que algunas personas tuvieron con la muerte , una semana despues de eso cambian su vida , ven la vida con otra perpectiva u otros ojos ... las cosas que no eran importantes en su vida ahora son importantes y vice versa ... el dinero ya no les importa sino su familia . se la dedica a su abuela .
This guy has so much wisdom, talent and knowledge.
my favorite part of this entire song is the solo, especially the amount of emotion you hear within every note of the solo
I totally agree with you
One of the best songs ever made
that is an understatement
6:59 Ariën the Beast found it difficult to play something?! Unbelievable!

he is a genius..absolutely awesome
It's a blessing to know such musicians.
one of their best songs, and definitely my fave..

Do you know if they ever come to the states? And if they do, do you know if they come to the Chicago area or Indianapolis? They're fantastic!
I think I fell in love with mark. shit

Mark Janseen is a fucking genius, and a great artist, here we can see how he see his own music. by the way Kingdom of Heaven is a MasterPeace
well said I share your sentiments

I'd love to hear Mark play a solo, it'd be so class!
definitely, grandmas are our main inspiration in life.
Genius
I totally agree with you
I LOVE YOU MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great insight into this masterpiece.
His grandmother ;( i can't believe his perfection
great genious!!!! (( the very first chorus intro atmosphere is from The Seventh Seal of Van Hallen 1995 ))
need more of these videos
This was a great song, it feels like he really had a near death experience.
A genius making great music with heavy but simple riffs and scientific topics
Brilliant
i love him so much
favorite song of this album ;)
Mi amor 😍😍😍😍 que talento lo máximo
*Smile* "After this the hit potential gets destroyed". This should be a meme.
LUV EPICA !
Genius!!!
Mark is boss
love youu
Je vous presente mon guitariste preferé !
good riffs!
@holdsipadkid Favorite song of this ever. Everything about this song is just ass-kicking.
Love that part 8:04 and when Simone sings 😍
y la abuelita lo veia con su grupo antes practicar y él pensaba que no prestaba atencion a la musica o a la letra .... pero el modifico la cancion y de inmediato notó esto su abuelita asi que si estaba escuchando su musica :)
Exclamé un owwww :3 cuando dijo eso. Su cara al decir esa parte muestra lo importante que era su abuelita para él.

I'm not sure but I think he's using Pro Tools
the groovy part with Simone's voice is f****** incredible and one of the highlights of the song
@@AwesomeMetalBands Anything with Simone's voice is incredible :)
Grappig, je hoort zelfs aan zijn accent dat de man uit het zuiden des lands komt. :)
Dit nummer is een van mijn favorieten van Epica in ieder geval.
Mijn favoriet van Epica is hun magistrale veelzijdige discografie 😃
5:09 I came here for this
Take attention to a letter of this music, is not a ironicle thing of the bible, is a true about our destiny!
Simple amazing one thing that!
i want to look more into the scientist he is talking about does any one know the name to the scientist he is talking about ? or no
my perception of epica has changed entirely. Haha months ago I thought they were atheists who hated religeous persons, though even then I had my doubts with songs such as this. Epica will will always be number 1 epica
Being atheist doesn't mean you hate religion ;)
No but I think it is clear that Mark Jansen does. I do wonder what his story is behind it though
I rather think he hates extremists. The lyrics in Kingdom Of Heaven are far from being anti religion, to my mind at least.
Atheists do hate religions... if we didn't, why not stay religious? Because religions are detrimental
Can't say anything about "spirituality" though
There's a diference bettween anti religious and anti spiritually.
