I kind of stumbled on them on eMusic. There's still a lot of elements of "epic" metal I don't like, but between the orchestration and the vocalist (She's like amy Lee if Amy really could hit all the notes she wanted), hot damn!

I downloaded the Divine Conspiracy (EDIT: Yeah, had Dante on the brain), and I think I'm gonna be snagging more.

Not really.
The only song I like but Epica is their cover to Replica by Fear Factory.
I love it.
check it out if you haven't heard it yet.

My ex girlfriend listened to Epica. I thought they were okay, but never really bothered to get any of their material myself. Some of their songs were pretty cool though.

I certainly can't argue with that. :D

Yeah, I've got Consign to Oblivion.

Almost sounds as if Amy Lee was fronting Nightwish.

That was kind of my response, too. I was looking around at Nightwish stuff, because I've heard a few of their tracks where the front didn't sound like she was doing ridiculous opera vocals, and Epica was recommended.

Even when she does the über soprano shit, Epica front sounds good. And at points, it very much sounds like Amy Lee...Only with better pitch and a stronger grasp of the melodies she's singing.

It's a shame eMusic only has one full record. I'm trying not to spend much on music right now, so I'm probably going to wait.

I wasn't gonna use this, but I Just went through Amazon and the only way to buy them right now is used or through import. Both at extreme cost. FUCK.

So I'm downloading the Disco, minus the tracks I have.
