“To say bravo feels like a bit of an understatement, as EPICA has crafted a set of four songs with an album’s worth of staying power. For these reasons, CrypticRock gives EPICA’s Epica vs. Attack on Titan EP 5 of 5 stars.” Jeannie Blue Cryptic Rock (US)
“The production quality of the album is absolutely fantastic! The standout track of the EP is the opening track “Crimson Bow And Arrow“. It is catchy, fast and showcases the smooth vocals of Simone Simons and the harsh vocals blend in superbly.” Metal Nexus (US)
Today, Dutch symphonic metal giants EPICA release their cover EP for the highly successful “Attack On Titan” theme songs.

Simone Simons comments, “‘Dedicate your Heart!’ is one of the fastest EPICA songs I’ve ever sung. Be prepared to have this song stuck in your head for a long time.”
EPICA VS. Attack On Titan Cover EP was recorded during the summer of 2017 at Sandlane Recording Facilities by Joost van den Broek. The original songs were composed by Revo of popular Japanese band LINKED HORIZON. For the EP, tracks were adapted by EPICA and produced by Joost van den Broek. The choir arrangements and scoring were completed by keyboardist Coen Janssenwho also handled the orchestral arrangements with Joost van den Broek.
