Epica is a Dutch symphonic/gothic metal band that was founded in 2002 by guitarist and composer Mark Jansen (ex-After Forever) and guitarist Ad Sluijter. The band started under the name Sahara Dust, but later changed it to Epica in early 2003. Their lineup has evolved over the years, with members like keyboardist Coen Janssen, vocalist Helena Michaelsen (ex-Trail Of Tears), drummer Iwan Hendrikx being replaced by Simone Simons and Jeroen Simons.

Epica's music is characterized by its powerful combination of symphonic elements and heavy metal sounds. They have released several albums, including their demo Cry For The Moon. With influences from bands like Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Lacuna Coil, Epica has carved out their own unique sound within the genre.

If you enjoy artists such as Delain, Leaves' Eyes, or After Forever, then you will definitely appreciate Epica's music. Their captivating melodies and impressive vocal performances make them a standout in the symphonic/gothic metal scene.
