On December 11, guitarist
Isaac Delahaye of Dutch symphonic metallers
EPICA was interviewed by
Metal Shock Finland in Nottingham a couple of hours before they kicked off the final leg of their tour in the U.K. You can now listen to the chat using the
SoundCloud player below.
EPICA will celebrate its 10th anniversary with a special performance, dubbed
"Retrospect", which will take place on March 23, 2013 at Klokgebouw in Eindhoven, Holland.
"Retrospect" will be
EPICA's most ambitious project to date, joined by a 70-piece symphonic orchestra and choir, international guests and lots of special effects.
Specially for this show,
EPICA will be joined by the
Hungarian Extended Remenyi Ede Chamber Orchestra and
Choir of Miskolc National Theatre, the same orchestra and choir with whom
EPICA recorded the highly acclaimed live album
"The Classical Conspiracy". This anniversary show will be a "Retrospect" on
EPICA's career and will contain all trademark elements you can expect from
EPICA.
EPICA's fifth full-length album,
"Requiem For The Indifferent", sold 4,800 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 104 on The Billboard 200 chart.
"Requiem For The Indifferent" was released on March 9 in Europe and four days later in North America via
Nuclear Blast Records. The CD was recorded at
Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany under the watchful eye of
Sascha Paeth.
