Dutch symphonic metal titans Epica are gearing up for their new album, Omega, scheduled to arrive on February 26, 2021 via Nuclear Blast. Today (18th), the group has shared a video for the acoustic version of their single “Abyss of Time.” 

 

Keyboardist Coen Janssen comments: 

“For the ‘Omega’ release we rewrote 4 songs into acoustic versions. This is our way of relaxing after a period of working hard and intense on heavy music. Being able to wind down and see if the songs still ‘work’ without all the bombast feels like coming home. It also enables us to explore other musical styles than metal and challenges us to be creative in a different way than we are used to. Enjoy our first single ‘Abyss of Time’ as if it was played in an Irish Pub while enjoying a nice pint with all your friends!!”
