EPICA - Unchain Utopia (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO)

[@RammmFan]

Why the hell is this so underrated? The music is beautiful, aswell as her voice. The lyrics are great

[@DaScorp]

True Bro True, Tarja is the Queen, but this shit is the Queen II - trust me, i like Taja as F. But this voice is also amazing! This is the next Nightwish for 2025+

[@hansnystrompastor8690]

cause you cant twerk with this

[@dericksilva281]

Perhaps it could be due to the semantical mistake when instead of "We're in a time WHEN..." It says: "We're in a time WHERE." Since time is not a place. It's an immaterial and abstract concept.

[@barbi111]

Because it says the truth.

[@feralAdy23]

This album is so UNDERRATED! This should be winning Grammy, not the shit that's been getting awards these days!

[@Caballerod.LaLuna]

according to you, this album is awesome

[@fartvader84yearsago8]

grammy's are a shitty price for shitty music. Épica is way over that.

[@LangsGalgEnRad]

[@diegoseries6364]

epica is shit

[@Shooter9810]

then dont watch it ?!

[@SymphonyofTragedy]

Anyone who is a symphonic metal fan who hears this song would know that it's an Epica track and I love that - it's classic Epica and that's why it's one of my favorites from their new album. It's perfect for me especially from 3:08 and on. I rewind to that spot and play it over and over again.. I can't get enough.

[@nimedhel09]

It's funny, because it's classic Epica, yet, it''s very new, it's not anything they've done before, and that's one thing I really love about this band, plus the fact that the lyrics actually MEAN something. Have a great day!

[@Monty-or9sb]

Yeah, thats one of my fave bits of Epica. I try to sing along! I Fail!

[@VeeOasis]

I have rewound it 36 times now

[@ashleyk.97]

wow! I'm impressed by the message of this song. "We won't succumb to your delusion now" + "Conquer the insane. United we stand tall"

[@ronniemallari9533]

Ya

[@aryaelda2223]

The Operatic quality of her voice is simply stunning! I've only recently come across EPICA and Nightwish, but their music is wonderfully diverse and beautiful.

[@TerryDrumCovers1951]

You bet. When I first discovered Nightwish and Epica it was like being open to a whole new dimension of music.

[@dweazlezitzanbobbin2099]

This is one of the greatest songs I have heard in quite some time. It is the definition of why I love symphonic metal. The vocals are fantastic, the choir elements give me chills, the lyrics actually mean something, and it is just all around amazing. I just can't get enough of it since I bought it in july. It is so much fun to sing along to, I love testing the range of my own voice.

[@shafaet1194]

What do the lyrics mean? They don't mean anything it all, it's just those songs that pretend to have a deep message when infact it doesn't, literally nothing here makes sense.

[@andreea6714]

@@shafaet1194 Don't be so slow witted. If you take your time to analyze every. single. lyric you will understand. That's the point of it all. It's not just music. It's poetry that apparently not all can comprehend.

[@DarkwarriorJ]

@@shafaet1194 This one I don't understand. Freedom - The Wolves Within, and Storm the Sorrow both made sense to me though.

[@shafaet1194]

@@andreea6714 Then tell me what poetry this music contains, don't just throw around statements like that without any analogy from your part lmao.

[@Ale55andr082]

@@shafaet1194 my modest and very personal interpretation (sorry for my BAD english): what is written in the text seem the point of view of the angels who rebelled against God in Eden, for example the "deceptive games" or the "illusory writings" saided as accusations/sarcasmic criticism are the biblical prophecies (indeed difficult to interpret). When the text refers to "your delusion" (while the video shows the sun with his rays through the clouds...) seem to talk about the "disappointment of God" to the rebellion of his spiritual suns and the first human couple, and his stance against them (while this "rebellious angels" claim that they will not succumb to it). "Why we should believe you carring you own burden" seem referred to the promises from god (eternal life, happiness etc), and the "burden" that he's carrying is the sacrifice of his first sun, Jesus. As for the time waiting for this "unchained utopia" seem refer about the god's kingdom (an utopian paradise, indeed) that will comes after he unleashes his war in Armagedon. PS: There are several texts of the epica which seem to have taken lot of inspiration from the biblical scriptures and often seen from the same point of view: the song of rebellion against God. Now you can laugh 😁, but honestly it seem pretty clear too me because in the past I've studied the bible and because the epica seem set against religion by default

[@nimedhel09]

Same here! Since it got out, I listen to it at least once a day, and I still do, which is quite amazing, knowing that listening to the same songs over and over can get boring, but this album is so amazing I can't get enough. :D

[@Acrum99]

I've only been listening to The Quantum Enigma the last couple of days. This is one of my favourite songs and has been since it came out!

[@gellargod]

[@sesshomarumetalroad4287]

[@pedroteran5885]

The beautiful thing about this song is how all the lyrics are engineered from verse 1 to lead to the double rhyme `ball and chain' at the very end.

[@boxheas1]

For me, the most exciting part: 2:02 "It's afflicted by a virus of the brain...Liberty unchained, recite the insane" That choir gives me goosebumps all over my body.

[@jakobusswart1376]

[@sunnvirhickey4840]

To pick out something on here. The lyrics which they write are really simple, simple lyrics which I could probably come up in two minutes. How ever, the difference between me and them is how to make these lyrics really amazing. Epica takes these simple lyrics that a beginner might think of and inevitably throw away but Epica just uses them anyway. They have mastered the art of taking something really simple and turning it to just something epic. That is a difficult task and Epica has really learned how to turn the simple into something beautiful.

[@sunnvirhickey4840]

@Adead Well, then what do you agree with then?

[@Valentin-Fernandez-Protti]

This is One Great Example of why Epica is a Perfect Band. Thanks to Epica for being an important part of my inspiration in the music and a part of my very soul ^^ (Epica, Kamelot, Nightwish, and others are the reason why I started to Play Piano). Those Lyrics and that Constructions can rise a Dragon of flames in the soul ^^
