Epica, one of my favorite Symphonic Metal bands, has a new album coming out on February 26th. And so today we have a single from that album that was released back in October. And it's why we have a Metal for Monday song on Wednesday. (See the definition of Rules versus Guidelines.) I'm sure we will cover more of that album in the future.
The music video is a bit distracting. Most of them are. And I realize that this is the wrong time of the day for Metal, even Symphonic Metal, but here we are.
This is "Abyss of Time - Countdown to Singularity" by Epica from the upcoming album Omega. And I really hope that the name of this album does not mean it is their last album.
The record label, Nuclear Blast, seems confused about the title to the song. Hence the title of the video. Record labels are like that. Look what they did to Rush and "Spirit of Radio."
While I do like Epica, I'm not sure if I like this song or not. This morning I feel differently about it than I did. But then again it is too early...
