Epica
album cover The Phantom Agony
2003
Transmission Records

$12.00

Harvest Moon Rating
(Not yet rated)

Utilizing a fully-loaded string section and a professional choir, Epica raises the standard of symphonic power metal on their debut album The Phantom Agony. Sopranao Simone Simons delivers a powerful operatic performance without detracting from the driving guitars. The harsh vocals of Mark Jansen contrast Simone's silky voice to add a layer of Gothic metal to an already lush and dramatic mixture. Fans of Nightwish, Theatre of Tragedy, and Tristania will find The Phantom Agony more than appealing. This edition contains the single version of The Phantom Agony as a bonus track.
