Epica is the heavier side of symphonic metal. Extremely talented musicians, and the harsh growling of Mark Jansen with Simone's high soprano is just as magical as Floor and Marko. The thing that sets Epica apart for me are their lyrics ... they are some of the most thought provoking, deep and relevant. I always have to look up the lyrics of their songs and try to interpret the message they are trying to convey ...

First time seeing a 'wall of death' mosh pit? 🤣 Yes , it's normal. Congrats Debbie! You made it through one of EPICA's heaviest songs. You handled this, you should have no problem with any of their other songs. Title track from their 2nd album in 2005, it is often used as the set closer, and still played today. This performance, I believe , was 2017. The mix of Mark Jansen's harsh vocals and Simone's operatic cleans is sometimes referred to as Beauty and the Beast. Did you notice Coen Janssen's keyboard, not only spins, but moves across the stage? Pronounced more like (Si-moan-eh See-mons) in Dutch, but she has heard the English pronunciation so many times , it doesn't bother her.

But I didn't expect anything else from Epica ... their streaming show Omega Alive during Pandemic was something that made my jaw drop several times ... not only because of the music, but also because of the overall artistic concept. Epica is the darker, heavier cousin of Nightwish. Both are in their own way the gold standard for symphonic metal. It's also no wonder that there is a lot of overlap in the fan groups. And yes, Simone is a metal queen in her own right.

I spent way too much time bouncing around and losing/breaking my glasses in the smaller/friendlier pits back in the 80's/90's. You had to pick your show because some of them got a little violent; but most of the pits are actually surprisingly civilized, supportive, self-policing, organized chaos. It is amazing to watch the sea of people part and half a dozen guys are all on their hands and knees looking for my lost glasses lens. At soon as we find it, a pathway out of the pit opens for me and the chaos resumes behind me as I leave. Great memories!

I think you should listen to a few more to really understand what their sound is like.

Hi Debbie, in answer to your question 'is this a normal song?' you have 'Rivers' at the beautiful end of the spectrum and Consign to Oblivion at the heaviest end of the spectrum of their music, which means that the rest of their music falls somewhere in between these two extremes. So if 'Consign to Oblivion' wasn't too much for you then I think you will probably love the rest of their music as most of it is more melodic

The wall of "epica" happens as far as I know in good order, if you don't want to participate there is time to be on the side line.... and when you look to the public and the music changes they wil stop ..... so well controlled. Although most of the time you cann't hear exact what they are singing, they have very deep lyrics as well, so it would be interesting also to read the lyrics before looking at the video's.

As others have pointed out that was a "wall of death" which separates the crowd into mock battle formation and we charge at each other, although Simone cleverly calls it the wall of Epica instead. I am a 40 something female metalhead and have been in many mosh pits, walls of death, and row pits. And acted as part of the shield wall keeping the pit circling, helping people when they fall, and protecting the crowd behind us. I know it sounds crazy but its a blast for those who love this music. There is "mosh pit etiquette" we do try not to hurt each other too much and we help people out when they do.

@@thequestionqueens if not for the shield wall she C S mentioned, or retaining wall as I always called it due to my construction background, it could get a little dangerous for people around the pit. I'm 45 now and haven't been in a wall of death in many years, only circle pits. It seems like every show where a wall starts I happen to have an injury or I've previously consumed a little more than too much alcohol. Either way I've had to refrain from entering for either my safety or to keep from accidentally vomiting on others, mainly the second one. The pit may look chaotic but it's a polite, happy, organized, and respectful chaos. Everyone is there for a good time and if somebody gets a little too aggressive, they are usually pushed to the edge and asked to calm down. If there's an injury a corridor usually opens for them to exit then closes as they go by. It's really an interesting dynamic.

Ahhh... nothing will prepare a person for the first exposure to some of these bands. Epica is truly in a league of their own. Look at it this way.... your lips are still red... they didn't turn blue once. "Pinball in a pinball machine" is actually a pretty good description of the feeling on the floor at a good concert. You're pretty close to being ready for your first open-air metal festival. Maybe stay back from the Wall of Death and the Circle Pit for a few songs... learn the protocols, e.g. if anyone falls, pick them up, NOW ; find a safe-place to retreat to if you get separated from your group, and remember : a grimace is a smile, flattened and well-intended (actually, you'd find yourself smiling constantly, and you'd find a hundred new friends that day). Be real, be yourself.... don't let us influence you, lol. We're all just a bunch of silly kids at heart. We just refuse to grow up. (heck, my daughter is older than I think I am !! )

I have just seen on the screen you'd see this song and had to laugh. Because I knew what was coming! Had to watch your reaction to this and smiled all over my face all the time. Now you're into Epica! Everything before was nice, but I know this one would blow your mind. Love Epica, they are so good! Think you've found another rabbit hole. Epica and Nightwish are like twins, but Epica is the darker and heavier side of those two. They are like twins, yet so different. Right now I am more into Epica. They are so much fun!

@@thequestionqueens Hi Debbie! Honestly, I was a bit afraid when I saw which song you picked. I was like "shit, she'll never come back to Epica" 🙂Well, it's not their normal song, it's really among the heaviest and longest in their catalogue. This is what happens when you don't follow our suggestions. 😅 The good news is, you can now react to anything from Epica, as you are now toughened, hopefully. 😉 And don't worry, this was one of the very few songs with more growling than Simone's singing. In the vast majority of other songs, it's mostly Simone+choir and then some growls here and there (or no growls at all). I can tell you that Epica music is very very varied. They have music for real metalheads, but also for mainstream listeners who normally listen to pop, etc. Epica ballads are wonderful! Better than 90% of what you'll ever hear on radio. An example of a beautiful and radio-friendly song (from 2012) with a very cool video too: EPICA - Storm The Sorrow (OFFICIAL VIDEO) kzitem.info/news/bejne/xYSluqqdaaZmZZg Only 20 seconds of growling and it's really catchy, great melody and even lyrics if you wanna look them up.

@@thequestionqueens this song is pretty tough, especially this performance. It is my most favorite heavy song from them. It was fun to see how you couldn't believe it. 😊
