EPICA released their long-awaited sixth full-length album entitled "The Quantum Enigma", on May 2nd in Europe, May 5th in the United Kingdom and May 13th in North America via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD was produced by Joost Van Den Broek (the former AFTER FOREVER and AYREON keyboard player who has previously worked with REVAMP and STREAM OF PASSION).
Says EPICA guitarist/vocalist Mark Jansen: "I have been listening to our new album the whole day now and I can't get enough of it! It sounds more modern but with all typical EPICA elements inside. Refreshing might be the right word. This album has also been the result of a real group effort.
"It was great to see everyone being so motivated to create our best album!
"Even though the sound is more heavy (the guitars, bass and drums sound so brutal!!!), it's still a very catchy album as well. Some old influences from our earliest work, some references to 'Design Your Universe' and some new elements.
"I can't wait 'till the moment you'll be able to listen to our newborn which makes us all very proud!" The official music video for the song "Victims Of Contingency" from EPICA, can be streamed below. The official lyric video for the songs "The Essence Of Silence" and "Unchain Utopia" from EPICA, can be streamed in the YouTube clips below.

Dutch symphonic metal band EPICA celebrated its 10th anniversary with a one-night-only event, dubbed "Retrospect", on March 23rd in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. The band was accompanied by the seventy-piece Reményi Ede Chamber Orchestra and the Miskolc National Theatre Choir, playing an unforgettable three-hour best-of set. Ten high-definition cameras captured this very special sold-out show while EPICA played in front of nearly five thousand ecstatic fans. In addition to a collection of the band's biggest hits from across the spectrum of their entire catalog, this once-in-a-lifetime spectacular also featured the live debut of "Twin Flames" and the previously unreleased "Retrospect", covers of classics by Vivaldi, Pergolesi, and Oscar-winning film composer John Williams, two guest collaborations with the venerable Floor Jansen (NIGHTWISH, REVAMP), and a very special performance of their breakthrough single "Quietus" with founding members Jeroen Simons, Ad Sluijter and Yves Huts. On November 8th, Nuclear Blast released "Retrospect" as a deluxe hardcover book with 48 pages, both as a 2DVD/3CD and 2Blu-ray/3CD version. "Retrospect" features this massive performance in its entirety, as well as exclusive interviews with all band members and behind-the-scenes footage from the show.
The official trailer for "Retrospect", the new DVD and Blu-ray from Dutch symphonic metal band EPICA, can be streamed in the YouTube clip below.
A performance clip of the song "Unleashed" can be seen below.
