Epica –  launch music video for mystical new single ‘Arcana’

Hidden wisdom, long-lost secrets, and esoteric knowledge—with ‘Arcana,‘ the frontrunners of symphonic metal, EPICA, herald a new chapter in their two-decade-long band history. This is the band’s first new release since their chart-topping album Omega and their collaboration EP The Alchemy Project. It offers a glimpse into the band’s future music, coming in 2025.

“Arcana guides you through the universal stages of spiritual evolution in life. It leads the way to a higher consciousness and spiritual self-awareness,” the band comments. “Writing this song was a spontaneous effort, so it came together quickly, which felt so natural that it wrote itself. The music contains classic Epica elements but has some vibes that might remind you of 80s alternative rock or modern metal.”

The song has already made its live debut at the band’s monumental ‘Symphonic Synergy’ shows in Amsterdam this September, and fans in Latin America will have the chance to be the next to hear it live at two shows that EPICA will perform exclusively with a full orchestra and choir.
