Epica and Nightwish are the faces of symphonic metal in my head and they always will be
Don't forget Kamelot.
+Lance And Within Temptation
Delain
Well, even name of Epica originates from Kamelot's album, don't forget about it :P
And the MOST important band of symphonic metal: Lacrimosa.
It's interesting how Epica and Within Temptation are Dutch bands, and Nightwish is a Finnish band. Basically the whole symphonic metal genre is in Northern Europe. Must be the air or something.
Don't forget the lead singer form Nightwish is Dutch as well :P
-and Delain is worth a mention as well as Dutch band. And in the Finnish scene are a lot more bands as well.-
Indeed must be something in the air ;)
if you ask me is something in the water ;)
If you look at Germany and other European countries, although not as prolific, have a good Symphonic Metal culture as well. My theory is that is because classical symphonic music is more entrenched in their culture than other parts of the world. It is not uncommon for kids to be brought up listening to both Metal and Classical music. Would be interested on others thoughts about this.
believe me I am Dutch and let me tell you it is not the air
So basically Iceland, Ireland, Scotland, Norway, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Estonia are basically the best of the best.
Metal is such a wide genre. You have aggressive thrash, slow ballads, symphonic metal. One of the widest genres of music out there for sure.
Yep, saying 'I don't like metal' is like saying 'I don't like cheese'; what type of cheese? It's such a huge, diverse category but sadly too many people assume it's black/ death/ doom and nothing more...
Electronic has far wider array of genres.
yeah and dont forget about AARGHHAHHHHHHHHhhHHHH metal
@Bloviator Magnus that is a seriously dumb statement dude.
Like seriously do you even know what electronic music is?
Alguém em 2024 relembramos essa lenda?????
Along the way I find myself
To be confined within me
No place for any other's mind to interfere,
To grasp the meaning of it all
To overcome my limits
And dance away from any void and empty tones,
Just tell me why
Just tell me how
I can survive this time
Believe yourself and look away
From all that's right within you
Leave all your worries at the door and drift away,
Iâve tried to peer into the core
But could not storm the sorrow
My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray
Another time without a trace,
Condemn me now
Send me to hell
For I'm already failing
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in, no
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
No time to ever go to waste
Itâs not that complicated
Youâre free to live your life at ease
No more restrain
No heed for shadows on your way
That try to steal your laughter
Your light will drive them all away
Be confident
Will I refrain?
Can I repent?
Will you be there?
Erase the page
For Iâm alone and ailing
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in, no
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
So, this is my life
And it can't break me down
Go, I will decide
Who can come in and heal my disease
Burn it in flames
Kill it and maim
Why can't you see that you need to be freed?
Intertwine the lines beneath the dark
Every bit of pain we're feeling
Every other solemn life, no
In the memories you will find somehow
There used to be a dream unending
No more need to be alone
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in, no
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
Thanks

Almost 12 years later and this is still one of the best music videos Ive ever seen. In my book, it would've won a grammy back when it was released.
did you see this in 8k ? #hdfactory
Thanks! Much more details!
#epicastormthesorrow
Not only is Simone Simons incredibly talented and gifted but also she's strikingly beautiful & charismatic. A true metal goddess. Just like Tarja, Ailyn, Lori Lewis, Sharon etc, just to cite a few. We're beyond lucky to being able to listen to and appreciate each and every one of themđ€
Simone Simons, Tarja Turunen, Sharon den Adel, Amy Lee, Cristina Scabbia, 5 powerful voices of the nowadays metal.
OMG! Her eyes, her voice, this video, is awesome and beatiful. aTube Catcher here we go!ï»ż
I'm in love with her voice. She's unique.
And she didn't even use her operatic vocals in this song :)
Her vocals are outstanding đ€©đ€©đ€©đ€©đ€đ€©đ€đ€©đ€
Simone's voice is like an angel's voice - when you hear her voice you probably will have goosebumps on the whole body. She is unique!!!
Simone su voz es inconfundible đ¶đ„°âš
imagina a simone y tarja seria un temazo. Dos grandes voces fusionandose
â@@lucasdiaz6306ufff.
The moment when they are both singing at the same time is absolutely amazing. Blown away!
đ€
At 63 years old, I find this music fascinating. It's the combination of symphonic, metal rock, and Simone's strong vocals! Great stuff!
Me too!
My 3 year old sun wants to watch this every single night before going to bed. Her says: "I wanna see the lady in the mud" :) greetings from Hungary :)
smart boy
Good going kid!
@@lightdrgn20 i think you corrected the wrong comment đ€đ
@@ronaldboers8061, I tapped the wrong name, woops
@AndrĂĄs PomgrĂĄcz, you used "sun" as in the star, you should use "son" for a male child.
I'm not even sure what it is about this, something about the synergy between the video, lyrics and the song itself is just beautiful. Something honestly feels inspiring about it to me, which I can't truthfully say about any other music video I've watched. I keep coming back to it whenever I need a little encouragement.
Itâs about stepping into your higher self
Where no ones voices cloud your thoughts.
The only thing more beautiful than Simone is Epica's music and the vocals she provides. Match made in heaven. đđ
Nightwish and Epica, i love symphonic metal đ
Sirenia, Xandria, Imperia > Nightwish = Amberian Dawn
Epica? Don't know yet. Still listening. Yet to decide.
Hey, where Within Temptation? Brođ
@@user-ii6gm4vj5b you're joking right? Nightwish is much bigger in terms of music, writing, every memeber in this band is the best in their field. But then, art is a subjective matter... so.
@@levalaleen5241 Nope, not joking. Currently having Epica and Sirenia as my all-time favourites in symphonic metal, Nightwish is far away, somewhere in my top 10. Why? Because I just almost never got goosebumps by their music. It's just that the choirs/vocal harmonization is a lot in the background, power metal-esque, not really high-pitched, a-v-e-r-a-g-e. While Sirenia's choir is outstanding, Epica's choir is also huge; both Epica and Sirenia have more variety - using tempo switches, growl vocals, choirs, normal female vocals, the occasional rare opera-esque vocal... this is some serious compositional diversity. And mostly, I'm getting goosebumps all the time. The Latin Sirenian choir never fails, Ailyn's voice was something unique and special in Perils and TSLP (these albums are so epic in my list that I rarely listen to them so I don't get "used to them" cuz I'm getting shivers throughout their whole entirety). And in Nightwish? Tarja's lyric soprano didn't help either cuz lyric ones don't use power in their voice, they use delicacy and they sing out long lyric lines. Which is less epic than Xandria's ex-singer Manuela Kraller who is a dramatic soprano - dramatic ones are the exact opposite - they use sheer power and can sing clearly over a full orchestra (while a lyric one can only be heard over it) or Dianne van Giersbergen who is a spinto sporano who is somewhere in between both and combines both. Anette never sung operaticly; Floor basically never sings opera and I'd rather say her vocal performance in EFMB was rather boring - she reached something like E5 or F5 in the whole album while her range reaches something like D6 (at least the new album was better, yay). Sooo here this is why I consider NW overrated
@@user-ii6gm4vj5b if you like showing your musical knowledge go to a fucking therion video. AND epica and sirenia are really just mediocre music, but Nightwish and AVANTASIA are in a league of their own. Ask anyone really.
She's becoming Venom.
Hahhahsha, your comment made me laugh, I didn't notice at first sight how that black liquid resembled Venom but now I can't help but be reminded a little of Spiderman
Ajahhaha
She could be Poison Ivy too.
Captou meu pensamento rsrsrsrsrs
đđ
Simphonic metal is so good đđ»
Symphonic metal? It's in my top 10 favourites, 5th place before nu metal, alternative metal, heavy metal, and christian metal.
I've been in love with Epica for years because their music is absolutely amazing... But I can't help but comment on how beautiful Simone is...
AbyssRaider Jeah she looks gorgeous
AbyssRaider indeed she is beautifull. i just find it sad that she is the center of attention. IMO Epica is a group. it's not only simone. it's to centered on here
Marie-helene Simard Way too centered around Simone, I agree. But, yeah, she's beautiful.
Boris Babic if you like screaming music there are other bands i think this is one of their best songs ,
and who stole my dreams that is one hot video
Dom Ex WHat? I can't find the song you recommended.
The growl in this song is sooo brutal and masculine. It gets me every time. The video amplifies the melody really well on that part. Masterpiece.
The end of this song gives me chills.
I've been listening to alot of Lacuna Coil, Evanescence, Epica, Nightwish & all sorts of symphonic & Gothic Metal.
Beautiful song.
All great bands!
Everybody are crying out how much they love Simone and her voice. I'm just listening to the blast beat
Metal cred, brah. :D
In the chorus?
Soo much better blast beat if you listen to early death metal.
Fuzzy Terror Technically there's probably no arguing with that. However, when so much symphonic metal is just pop/rock with a keyboard on top it's hard not to love Epica for staying with a proper metal sound, even on their more mainstream songs. If you want to hear what I mean go check out Unsun - Whispers and then come back here. :P
dragonzrmetal Not saying anything bad about her voice and I'm sorry to hear she's ill. What I don't really like about Unsun and many other symphonic metal bands is that there's no "grit" or attitude to the music. When I listen to Epicas "Martyr of the free word" for instance, there's a lot of that attitude that's missing from Unsuns "Whispers". You may like Unsun regardless, and that's absolutely fine. It's just not my cup of symphonic metal. :)
Simone's head movements at 2:12. Love it
Ya somos dos.
omg I thought Im the only one
classic isfp head movement xd. like my girlfriend
A little sass within the beauty
Saw this band in 2017 in Dallas Texas. It was an amazing night, this band is even better live. Such a great year it was for me.
2:12 I love that little movement that she does with her head
Simone is the Queen of all the heavenly angels, Goddess of all the beautiful living creatures, and Empress of all the divine souls
Ss!cnesS EmperĂžr I think you mean Alissa xD
Ss!cnesS EmperĂžr .
A M E N
she is too beautiful
she is of plastic and the music is not only the beauty of the bitch singer is more
+Bastet Uchiha except she's not of plastic, and the band is pretty good.
Fuddy Duddy i like the band and her music and her voice but i dont like she and her personality yes she is of plastic baby in the streets the girls normal" are not as she and she is not real the womans are real normally...
Fuddy Duddy but i am gotic and i like others band of gotic not epica but is good too.
Bastet Uchiha You are incomprehensible.
"No heed for shadows on your way that try to steal your laughter" is so good I got it tattooed on me.
I have already got Epica's album Requiem For The Indifferent on CD!
I'm blown away. Never heard a song so good.
Curtis Yue It's EPICA my mannnnnnn
I'm blown away. Never heard a song so bad.
then you don't hear songs so often xD
Rahim Abdelli Either that or he listens to the radio
Adead dude Iâve seen you on multiple EPICA videos telling people to kill themself. Chill my guy, youâre not doing the band any justice. If anything you are sickening their reputation by coming off as a cancerous elitist who wants everyone to share a similar opinion about the band. You can voice your opinion but voice it less radically, or just stay silent and let people say what they think and let them be.

Guys, you are great. They combined two opposite genres, like day and night. Each of your creations is a masterpiece. BRAVO!!!!
Those eyes are unreal... damn she's pretty and talented. I love this band !!!
If the netherlands would send epica to the Eurovision Song Contest, the netherlands would win
Shadar Sixx Yes please. But It's probably not gonna happen.
Shadar Sixx Eurovision is rigged....
Shadar Sixx only freaks win the Eurovision, freaks in most negative way
Shadar Sixx Its beneath them.
Shadar Sixx This would be a terrible career move. Being associated with Eurovision is a death sentence to anyone's credibility
One of the best, precious, pieces of art on the music history.
Perfect vocal perfect band â€
I never get tired of listening to this song!!! My favorite song forever!!! Thanks EPICAAAAA!!!
This is one of my favorites video clips from all time. Awesome music, awesome band!
.
Check this girl. too She is amazing czcams.com/video/GmZGwTWRIBA/video.html&feature=share
contactrally yes, she is!
Nah, not even close to Epica, and the music is pale too.
The best TIDE Ad of all time if you ask me.
THEY ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL IN THEIR CONCERTS
The transition at 3:49 still blows me away every time.
She is one of the best females voices period! Not just of metal but in any style!
She and the whole band did improve on the last years. Her voice was always beautiful, but now it's cleaner... And the clip is pretty professional, very different from the phantom agony ones.
Confesso que o vocal dela me fez chorar... Lindo demais!!! E ainda da uma certa determinação.
Verdade mano
Yeeessss
And they say gingers have no soul. You'd have to have a soul to sing this masterpiece.
Its because she is actually blonde lol
(Just kidding hehe)
She's beautiful.
I totally agree with you!
She's probably a siren. You better run away before it's too late! I'm already under the spell of her voice, so it's too late for me, but it might not be too late for you!
Is it even possible for a redhead to have blue eyes? Seems extremely uncommon, they're usually green or hazel
Maarten Lauwereys I've seen images of her on her Instagram with different hair colours, I saw one of her which looked like Floor Jansen and one which she looked like Alissa White-Gluz
gofojibwas Natural redheads are almost always blue-eyed, maybe sometimes green-eyed(though I've never seen one) but NEVER brown or hazel. Goes against genetics.
this song can be important for ocd phobic people who now have a hard time when there really is an invisible danger of viral roulette going on. / Years ago Epicas singer Simone survived a dangerous bacterial infection. Then she developped a phobia for contamination. This song is about breaking free from that mental health issue.
Amazing! The transition in the last part to the angelic voice of Simone is so movingly!
I love her...
Todos la amamos.

symphonic metal and this kind of music makes me always happy
They REALLY nailed the name, Epica holy shit
Wow! What...a voice!
She's as beautiful as her voice. Simply amazing.
What a masterpiece! From the music, to the voice, and the astonishing video effects...perfection!
Masterpiece!!! Look and voice Simone's penetrate deep into the soul, and i am grateful to fate for what I found Epica.
Mother of all angels her voice is so beautiful!!!!!
Believe yourself and look away
From all that's right within you
Leave all your worries at the door and drift away,

Thank god I got to see Epica: "Design Your Universe" Tour 2019. November 3rd.
As Epic they sound here on video, they are the same live. Pura vida Epica!
Oh definitely! I seen them live during the original âDesign Your Universeâ tour in 2010. The tour you seen was for the 10th anniversary of that album. Cheers!
Gorgeous voice
Easily the best song by Epica.
I don't think it's the best, especially if you consider both their last album (The Quantum Enigma and The Holographic Principle) which got a lot of great song (the Second stone, the Essence of silence, Victim of contingency and Beyond the Matrix, Edge of the blade, Universal death squad, etc.
Agreed
absolutely their best song
These eyes, this voice. I fell in love
Inspiring as it's beautiful, with a deep meaning. This one will always have a special place in my heart.
Visualmente, este es uno de mis videos favoritos de Epica. Realmente creo que es un muy buen concepto y ediciĂłn y la canciĂłn tambiĂ©n es de mis favoritas. Epica siempre entregando mĂșsica y contenido de calidad.
Non-stop 2 hours now..

This song is so underrated

_"Realize the pain we live in,_
_Demonize the need we reel in."_
I cant get enough of this song!
AMAZING!
The light and dark struggle. And that BLACK GOO!!!
This song deserves more views...
Love the twists and turns of this chord progression!
Wow, just wow
This video made me cry tears of happiness.
...thank you all.
I've heard of Epica for a long time but this is the first time I listen to them and I'm just mad at myself for waiting that much
I'm crying and that's not a joke
Even without musical aesthetics, Simone is amazingly beautiful like Crimson Angelic. I am addicted to this song.
AWESOME WORK of EPICA!!!
by NuclearBlastRecords ofc!!!
You know a song has you in its grasp when it keeps pulling you back years later to keep listening to it.
This is the first Epica song I had ever listened to, 6 years later it's still one of their best â€ïž
Every band has one music video by which is immediately recognized. If I must choose the best song which describes Epica is this one. Everything about this video is EPIC literally, music, choreography etc. just no words! This is why band is called EPICA. Also its my first song from this band and I fell in love in their songs. 10/10 rating from me!
I personally feel like there is a big difference between Epica and other bands like Delain. I believe Simone Simons makes the big difference along with the rest of the band and the choir and each song is unique. With the aggressive atmosphere, balance and variety that characterizes their music, the feeling you get after listening to one of their songs is indescribable.
are you crazy? Why are you comparing Delain with Epica? They're a Babymetal band, Epica is Symphonic Metal.
Virtuez agreed, Epica is just on another lever, should compare them with Night wish instead
Virtuez . I think the same my dear ! after decades of metal i have elected the best band on Earth : EPICA
*Knock* *Knock* Sirenia in their last albums is AT LEAST AS variable as Epica.
@@Zhiar Delain is not a baby metal ...... this is a serious group, which is very successful with symphonic and gothic motifs and arrangements, and the Epica is more a gothic team ------ but real baby metal ---- czcams.com/video/H_yATzyi-3g/video.html -, only I do I did not understand, I'm probably not a very smart music lover!
EPICa đ
This song is EVERYTHING!
While I can't state enough that she has an amazing voice, my favorite bit was with the male singer. Few people can mix that raw aggression with the melodic stuff that well. Can someone tell me the guys name?
He's Mark Jansen, founder of Epica ;)
Another singer who can do that extremely well imo is Jari MÀenpÀÀ from Wintersun. Look up their album Time I and you'll see what I mean.
Thanks dude! I'll give that a listen.
His name is Mark Jansen
This has got to be my favorite video ever.

Music like this should be fucking mainstream. Not the pop shit we get shoved down our throats today. It's almost hurtful how many people will remain ignorant of amazing music like Epica and all the other great bands out there simply out of lack of exposure (compared to all the other shit). It's just sad.
Agreed about the lack of exposure. Plenty of people would love this music if they just knew it existed. Sadly people generally only rely on mainstream radios so they miss great, intelligent music :/
MrAgonious Nope-nope-nope!!!
I want top level metal to remain intact for a musical elite, not to be listened to by stupid mobs that don't really understand it.
Popularity kills quality. I want my metal bands obscure and unloved. That way I know that they'll make their own music, not cater to the masses and make crap, like pop does.
Sad is that you trash another genres to bring up metal.
Music like this will not go mainstream with grunts and growls. It is also too heavy for regular radio airplay, and it is too European. Simone isn't 17 years old anymore, and the U.S. market loves their Lolita pop stars. Yeah, it is just sad.
About 10 years ago, I use to have this video playing in background when I was at work. I shared an office with a workmate, and our rule was, âWeâre both on CZcams, but I wonât tell if you donât.â Good times.

The real Venom movie sound track
I've read all the idiotic posts and I've gotta say this is refreshing like Opera meets Metal... not to mention the beautiful redheaded singer...this music although hard-to-put-your-finger-on the genre.. is very innovative to say the least , so to all the negative posters keep hatin,..doubt that you could do better and to Epica,...Rock on!!!...and thanks for something unique and different!!!
Thanks Samuel I will!
***** Thanks man! Checking out Nightwish's albums very soon! Can't wait to hear what they sound like!
***** At least they did. Don't forget that Nightwish fired their operatic vocalist, Tarja Turunen, in October of 2005, and hired a classic rock vocalist by the name of Anette Olzon as their new frontwoman in 2007. Ms. Olzon was fired in September of 2012, and the frontwoman of ReVamp (as well as the the former frontwoman of After Forever), Floor Jansen, (a good friend of both Nightwish and Ms. Turunen) was asked to step in for the rest of the tour (both legs in the Americas), and was subsequently confirmed as the new vocalist in October of 2013. Nightwish released their first studio album with Ms. Jansen as their frontwoman at the end of last month. They could once again do the opera-meets-metal thing to the fullest, because Ms. Jansen is a proper metal vocalist who has operatic capabilities, but they don't want her using her operatic technique (though apparently "Stargazers" has made a reappearance on the setlist - the first time since 2004 - and she uses it there), instead focusing on other aspects of her brilliant voice..
If you like the opera and metal mix, check Marchenbilder, Gone in April and Diabulus in Musica!
Her voice... I really love itđđđđđ
I like the art elements in this video.
But in the first place, it's the music! It's incredible.
I love this songgggg â€â€â€â€
Who in 2018? Some one?
