SUPPORT LATEST LAME !!
Originally calling themselves Sahara Dust, Holland's Epica formed in early 2003
when After Forever guitarist Mark Jansen decided to break away from the group he
had helped found in order to start an operatic metal project all his own. After
drafting teenaged mezzo-soprano Simone Simons, guitarist Ad Sluijter,
keyboardist Coen Janssen, bassist Yves Huts, and drummer Jeroen Simons, Epica
entered Wolfsburg, Germany's Gate Studio with a classically trained choir and
string section to lay down their ambitious debut, The Phantom Agony. Released by
Transmission Records in late 2003, the album spawned a number of singles.
The band's early success paved the way for 2005's sophomore LP, Consign to
Oblivion, which also charted well in the Netherlands. A move to metal powerhouse
Nuclear Blast and the addition of Ariδn van Weesenbeek on drums was followed by
Epica's first conceptual album, The Divine Conspiracy, released in 2007. It
charted across Europe, as did 2009's Design Your Universe, which equaled their
best Dutch chart showing at number eight; Design Your Universe also featured a
new member, with Isaac Delahaye taking over guitar duties.
Epica's fifth studio album, Requiem for the Indifferent, appeared in 2012. It
was the first to chart in the U.K. and U.S., after which another lineup shift
found Huts giving way to Rob van der Loo on bass. The band celebrated their
tenth anniversary in March 2013 with a special show in Eindhoven, titled and
later released as Retrospect, which even featured former members Sluijter,
Simons, and Huts. Just a year later, the band set their sixth studio album, The
Quantum Enigma, for a May 2014 release.
