I really have to congratulate the team that Epica has had since Omega, it seems that the band finally understood that they are paying attention to promoting their work. In addition to generating content whenever possible for social media. That's what makes a band seen nowadays. 👏

[@alonsopena3377]

They are so good at marketing! Same as music of course

[@FutileGrief]

Yes!!! They really outdid themselves this era!!

[@1Raikage1]

My favorite albums are The Quantum Enigma and Holographic Principle. Most likely due to their production quality thanks to their new producer Joost van den Broek. He also worked on Omega.

[@niccolorighetti1767]

Actually as a huge fan I am super happy to have it on youtube, but on the other hand I am a little disappointed since i bought the dvd and the bluray. I think some materials should stay exclusively in physical format, otherwise people could stop buying them... (not me, I am a compulsive Epica collector xd)

[@mackie1001]

@@niccolorighetti1767 I was a bit surprised but there’s still nothing quite like the fidelity you get from a physical Blu-ray with lossless audio

@@mackie1001 true, I think the prices of these items could be a little lower if it's not an exclusive content... Anyway, up the Epica!

Not totally for free, they make revenue out of views. People watching without subscription, KZbin will have ads making money for KZbin and the content creator. While paid subscriptions, paid for watching content; Small part of that money goes to the content creators.

Once Upon a Nightmare is probably one of the most amazing, epic and iconic metal performances in history.

[@mr.thompson8223]

This concert was a true work of art. Many bands are great musically, but not many pay attention to their art and the overall experience like Epica does. I think that's one of the things that makes them special.

[@constanzaquezada3579]

Yeah true, Babymetal is the only other band I can recall doing it too. However, Babymetal is in another level hahaha xD

[@polecat987]

I have to agree. Considering the context of when this happened during the pandemic, Epica and a few others nailed transmitting a similar energy to seeing them live. To me the key was showing interaction between members plus being creative with the visuals but not overboard. Sadly some others failed and their performances in those online concerts felt cold and flat.

[@battlewolf578]

I remember this in pandemic. This is a gift for everyone 🤟🏼🔥

[@ReijoValiranta-nt1vi]

I found Epica properly only during last year.I thought this is quite the same thing as Nightwish did at that time.Because no touring,they decided to do the live stream from 'Islanders Arms'.But if I'm right,this stream by Epica was as a support for the Omega album.

[@christiandittrich2608]

​@@ReijoValiranta-nt1vi The screaming concert happened because the tour was Covid canceled. So not that different from nightwish in that regard. But the whole concept and execution of the stream was just another level.

[@ReijoValiranta-nt1vi]

@@christiandittrich2608 I agree.

[@Owlr4ider]

The first song I ever listened to of Epica's, 20 years ago or so, was Cry for the Moon. The moment I listened to it for the first time I was hooked. Was my absolutely favorite song(not just of Epica's, in general as someone who only listens to metal since basically my late teens) back than and still is certainly one of my favorites to this day. Simone's singing, the growls popping in during the tense moments, the lyrics themselves, the orchestra, everything about it was absolutely incredibly. Don't get me wrong, Epica has released multiple incredible songs since than, but as the saying goes: 'you never forget your first' and doubly so when said first is such a masterpiece.

[@tuliocarmona]

Omega Alive en 4K, just amazing! 🤘 Thank you Epica 🥹

[@IllustriousCrocoduck]

Babies get it. Kids and babies appreciate music as art, without the politics and fads. My son is 7 weeks and so far his favorite band is Heaven Shall Burn, which is funny because I didn't previously listen to them that often. I'll have to play this for him next! 🤘

01:06:04 Once Upon a Nightmare On the way to sacred shores And in the arms of the life that we adore Moonlight shows a white design That's been waiting for a chance to seize a soul once more Sweet lad, o come and join me, do! Such pretty games I will play with you On a road Changing course Lightning strikes where we depart An eerie voice as the night embrace the heart Resonating from the life tha is moving on To new windows of the soul Will you, sweet lad, come along with me? My daughters shall care for you tenderly Hear his mystic voice I love you, your comeliness charms me, my boy! And if you're not willing, my force I'll employ He feeds on stainless souls We are stuck in the night Ancient power will strike Feel the fire Now run into his arms Leave your shelter behind We are going to fly Higher than high We will take on the sky Feel my senses United by the night Now it's time to close the door and open up like before New windows of the soul The silence of the void A father's life destroyed Stuck in the night Ancient power will strike Feel the fire Burn inside Run into my arms Leave your shelter behind We're going to fly See us fly And hear our cry We're out of sight Higher than high we will Take on the sky Feel my senses Out of my sight But live on in my mind New windows of our soul

I loved loved this show. It brought me such joy during lockdown. There was something to celebrate and something to look forward to. It was also breathtaking. Amazing production

[@Nox_Noir]

I've been following the band closely since the release of Omega. I've been to two of their concerts since then and I can proudly say that the band is in their peak. The album just doesn't have a bad song and it's in my top 3 I've been listening to since its' release. Simone has never sounded so good both studio and live like now. She truly excels vocally! The chemistry between everyone is great. Mark's growl vocals are at their best also. I've been listening since 2011 but the last few years I've grown to love them immensely. Thank you for sharing the Omega alive with us. I can't help but get goosebumps all over every time I listen to Cry for the moon in this. I can't wait to see what they've got for us for the Symphonic Synergy!

[@Michael-ep4kq]

This show made me fell in love with songs like "rivers, victims and in all conscience" I didn't know those songs and I love them ❤❤ thanks Epica it's cool that we can remember the time when the show was realized
