EPICA - Code of Life (Live At The AFAS Live)

[@Joshivr]

I’ve said it before and I say it again: this show NEEDS a blu-ray release! 🙏🏻

[@franck3279]

Yeah, don’t care if it is on YT, I’ll be preordering it.

[@ReijoValiranta-nt1vi]

Definitely!!

[@starcapture3040]

the crowed is dead

[@desape]

Personally i would be more interested on a Bluray of the Zenith Show better setlist the audience actually looked alive not like this show (everyone on zombie mode)

[@starcapture3040]

@@desape Compare the beauty of the road to Paradiso to this? with all the better production on stage its a pale shadow. I wish them to do another especial piano acoustic Paradiso show.

[@fritsyt2090]

Ohhhh good Lord, this is such a magnificent song and this whole show is on another level!! The best symphonic metal band striked again!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@rolsen1304]

We want Fools of Damnation official live too🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@EvaMetalhankle]

Yes!! Yes!! Yeeeees!!

[@Joshivr]

Definitely, and the rest of the show as well!

[@mfversluis]

This was my big surprise during the show. One of their favourite songs for me and still the big one missing as a live version.

[@lilianrodrigues509]

I want too 😊💜

INCREIBLE CAROLINA WEINBERG DE ARGENTINA

[@lauragalvez3596]

​I was there. Simone's voice live is 100 times sweeter than you can hear it in recordings. It's like a fairy's voice. This was an amazing concert although the netherlands public is not as energetic and fun as latinoamerican or south european public.

[@fritsyt2090]

I was there too and still get chills down the spine and teary eyes! 🥲😍

[@swampert1057]

I thought the crowd was pretty damn energetic when the pit broke out, shame it took as long as it did to start though

[@augustuslxiii]

A lot of (*not* all) US concerts are like this. People are super self-aware, which is a shame, because you're supposed to kind of get lost in the music. Ah well.

[@Freeze014]

(Most) Dutch are aware that others are there to enjoy the artists too and not to have to deal with others jumping and screaming in their face. They will generally show their enthusiasm between the songs.

[@JCarlossystem91]

Cada cultura es distinta una de la otra y eso es lo hermoso, los latinoamericanos somos muchos más energéticos, los europeos y asiáticos son más tranquilos.

[@fernandoferraz7809]

Epica really shows that you can always improve your game. They are getting better and better everyday.

[@franck3279]

So true, and they were already very good at the begining

[@LigeiaNoire]

I am here watching this, I've watched their presentation in Serbia, which was their best show of the whole tour, and thinking... what band plays as many shows as they played in the last two years, with such demanding instrumentation and vocals, and puts out a show like this, every single time? They are not just talented, they are disciplined, dedicated, professional and prolific. Their name couldn't have been any other.

[@Syncratci]

oh my god. the hype is real

[@Schelp1]

Simone has improved her live singing qualities enormously. She is also much more relaxed on stage these days. My compliments!

[@TheTheAndreiasantos]

So true! I remember back when I first got into Epica about 10 years ago, I thought she struggled sometimes on live shows, but she has evolved so much, she has much more control over her voice now. They are getting better and better! 👌❤️

[@Haelidhh]

Was going to write that too. It's amazing how much she has improved :D In older live shows I felt like she was often out of breath and trying to push through.

[@erwinmulder1338]

Sweet memories of being there. Cannot wait to see you all on stage again.

[@artsurf4951]

Epica has decoded the code of music and awesomeness 🤘

[@wildhoney126]

Isaac's guitar is in great demand 😆 This is incredibly cool, thanks Epica ❤

[@juniormendoza657]

What an amazing beautiful voice from such a stunning woman

[@ironruano8168]

Simple a great song with the angelic voice of the beautiful Simone Simóns. Thanks Epica.

[@luisebritta6139]

It is so amazing to watch how comfortable everyone is on stage playing and singing these songs as if it’s no big deal at all. I love this!

[@franck3279]

To be fair, they’ve been doing it half of their lives, but it sure doesn’t fully explains talent and chemistry.

[@2112666123]

Brilliant band an amazing band it’s beautiful Metal!!!

[@larissafmartins]

Impressionante como o Epica fica melhor a cada dia ❤️❤️

[@fernandoferraz7809]

Sim, e nesses vídeos do Live at the AFAS a Simone tem feitos umas leves alterações de canto em algumas partes, mas que fizeram toda a diferença. Eles mandam muito bem ao vivo.

[@larissafmartins]

@@fernandoferraz7809 verdade, percebi isso também!

[@pedromelolouzada2003]

sim

[@thegatto]

Sim! ;3

[@Velho_do_Rock]

Concordo. Ouço Epica desde que começaram, e percebo essa evolução também. Na minha opinião, essa banda hoje representa o ápice absoluto de tudo que é produzido em termos musicais no mundo. Por vezes, acho que sua música é composta por deuses e que Simone é um anjo da música, que foi enviada à Terra para nosso deleite.

[@eduardomartinezvalle901]

El intro es simplemente maravilloso!! Epica me ha dado el mejor regalo de cumpleaños!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@christoph8333]

What a great performance from them, what a great voice. Simone is as beautiful as ever before.

I love epica beste song ever het was geweldig spektakel om daar live bij te zijn een concert om nooit meer te vergeten ik hoop dat het hele concert wordt opgenomen op blu-ray en DVD en live cd dat zou geweldig zijn voor alle epica fans in de wereld en Nederland ❤❤🎬📽🎥💿📀👍

[@ElRenecito]

I love when Simone dances!!!

[@joyfulosity]

Man, Simone is simply on fire!!! Fantastic job and beautifully done by everyone!!

[@glopkilomilomj7656]

Epica one day came to a wacken air show in my country Suriname. Was one of the best nights of my life❤

[@franklin7391]

Finalmente live oficial desse hino! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Goosebumps over all of my back. Multiple times. And tears too. Probaly alergia to something.

Ladies and gentlemen:bachelor of music Coen Janssen,keyboardist,composer (for example this song,partly composed by him) ,arranger,on Omega album playing not only keyboards but also lots of percussions like glockenspiel, tubular bells, orchestral snare drum, orchestral toms, Gran cassa, bongos...On this album Coen has also done choir arrangements,choir scoring, orchestral arrangements...What an incredible,multi-talented musician!!

One of the best songs from OMEGA. Can't wait ❤

So happy that I was there and now have the video, agree wit others that we like to have the blue ray of the completeconcert. ... And next time can you give mutiple concerts in Amsterdam, 2 concerts with 2 different set list so many great numbers to play

[@morcelluswallace5942]

The best song of the album ! The best live performance ! Fantastic ! 🤘

[@5dedevil]

Yes please thankyou .

[@EmanatorofIX]

love the middle eastern vibes from EPICA... !! BEST BAND EVER...

[@nicola4877]

It's incredible how everything they do is simply amazing, I’d say that they are on their prime, but the most stunning thing is that they have been this good for the last 15 years

[@roymillwater8651]

Thanks so much, all your songs and voice get direcctely to my heart!

[@Velho_do_Rock]

Epica, para mim, é o ápice absoluto da música. Misturar música clássica com heavy metal não é fácil, e essa banda faz parecer simples. Ainda tenho que destacar o talento e o carisma de Simone. Poucas bandas, de qualquer estilo, podem rivalizar com Epica. A música deles parece ter sido composta por deuses, de tão perfeita.

[@Runamuck-vq2pe]

Epicas shows always look incredible

[@Dickv.Wijngaarden-il3yf]

Wow! This is great! ❤

[@Josie_Siren]

Sempre amei muito a voz da Simone, desde os primeiros álbuns do Epica, e sempre soube que ela não gostava de suas técnicas dessa época. Sem contar que passou por um período bem difícil quando teve um problema de saúde que dificultava seu trabalho ao vivo. Hoje vejo que ela se encontrou em sua voz, me parece que realmente está confortável. Fico tão feliz por ser vitoriosa... E quem ganha somos nós. Bandas no geral com o tempo costumam cair na mesmice. Mas o Epica tem lançado trabalhos incríveis. Vida longa!

[@Achilles1009]

Best epica ever.

[@dariopersa6207]

Prince of EPICA in the Guitars of Time

[@alemezaacu]

OMG! world needs more of this!!

[@dannyb3663]

Simone's voice is SO good. Its improved since Holographic Principle, and it keeps improving. Her voice changes from album to album, and I think the 'Omega' tone is the best we've had. It combines the smooth operatics of the very early with the power of the Quantum Enigma days, and has none of the whineyness of the Holographic Principle days. So its perfect now. I hope she keeps it this way.

[@frostfireee28]

This change in her voice is due to improved technique, this voice is going nowhere except better :)

[@Dickv.Wijngaarden-il3yf]

This is great. And Simone.!?, you look amazing! ❤❤

[@deborafernandespassos5277]

Música perfeita ❤❤❤

[@saray9535]

Vellos de punta, de principio a fin...😱😱😱

[@seditionrising]

I am always so excited to see what the band comes up with next. Their music stands alone in a world of metal. But i have learned my lesson, never play Epica in the car during a date. People who do not listen to metal do not get it at all.

[@thenextgeneration5032]

😆🤣 Hopefully they will be aware of the roadblocks ahead.

[@laitaa]

Great song and performance, and nice to see the curved keyboard Revo-1 for the first time 01:17 (i.e. this is the first time I saw it in action).

[@rennaneuddes]

É incrível como o EPICA melhora melhora Uma presença de palco incrível Sabem que estão ali para um show E simone em particular canta demais demais demais

[@macleod1592]

2:15 I love Simone's "squeak" she does. Just one of the few characteristics that makes her my all time favorite singer.

[@humwengus1204]

How is Simone's voice so silky and powerful?! I look up to her as a singer myself

[@Bruja-Gotica]

Excelente voz cantas muy bonito !!!
