I really have to congratulate the team that Epica has had since Omega, it seems that the band finally understood that they are paying attention to promoting their work. In addition to generating content whenever possible for social media. That's what makes a band seen nowadays. 👏
My favorite albums are The Quantum Enigma and Holographic Principle. Most likely due to their production quality thanks to their new producer Joost van den Broek. He also worked on Omega.
Actually as a huge fan I am super happy to have it on youtube, but on the other hand I am a little disappointed since i bought the dvd and the bluray. I think some materials should stay exclusively in physical format, otherwise people could stop buying them... (not me, I am a compulsive Epica collector xd)
Not totally for free, they make revenue out of views. People watching without subscription, UA-cam will have ads making money for UA-cam and the content creator. While paid subscriptions, paid for watching content; Small part of that money goes to the content creators.
This concert was a true work of art. Many bands are great musically, but not many pay attention to their art and the overall experience like Epica does. I think that's one of the things that makes them special.
I have to agree. Considering the context of when this happened during the pandemic, Epica and a few others nailed transmitting a similar energy to seeing them live. To me the key was showing interaction between members plus being creative with the visuals but not overboard. Sadly some others failed and their performances in those online concerts felt cold and flat.
I found Epica properly only during last year.I thought this is quite the same thing as Nightwish did at that time.Because no touring,they decided to do the live stream from 'Islanders Arms'.But if I'm right,this stream by Epica was as a support for the Omega album.
@@ReijoValiranta-nt1vi The screaming concert happened because the tour was Covid canceled. So not that different from nightwish in that regard. But the whole concept and execution of the stream was just another level.
The concert of the decade. Epica deserved this. This is absolute perfection. This is incredible. This is Epica. Every music fan should sit back and enjoy the spectacle, at least once in their lifetime. This is symphonic metal.
Hearing Simone shouting out Cry for the Moon was a pretty special moment. It was probably one of the first Epica songs I'd heard. One of the first songs I'd heard when I discovered underground music was a thing. And one of the most iconic songs in symphonic metal. Funny thing is, I didn't like it at first! Because of the growls. But then I read the lyrics and realized only a growl can convey the appropriate anger towards what the lyrics speak of. So Cry for the Moon is also THE song that got me into harsh vocals!
I really loved this show. It has a special place in my heart as I was sitting home with my infant daughter and we watched it together. Her first concert. She was so mesmerized by it.
Babies get it. Kids and babies appreciate music as art, without the politics and fads. My son is 7 weeks and so far his favorite band is Heaven Shall Burn, which is funny because I didn't previously listen to them that often. I'll have to play this for him next! 🤘
@@lilicalm8911 this show wasn’t actually live, they recorded and edited this performance, and that video was released live , so what you saw was already edited
@@nikosv95 Yes, but Simone's voice has improved in recent years, even if the show had post-production, her voice is wonderful, reaching very high notes like the first years of Epica.
The first song I ever listened to of Epica's, 20 years ago or so, was Cry for the Moon. The moment I listened to it for the first time I was hooked. Was my absolutely favorite song(not just of Epica's, in general as someone who only listens to metal since basically my late teens) back than and still is certainly one of my favorites to this day. Simone's singing, the growls popping in during the tense moments, the lyrics themselves, the orchestra, everything about it was absolutely incredibly. Don't get me wrong, Epica has released multiple incredible songs since than, but as the saying goes: 'you never forget your first' and doubly so when said first is such a masterpiece.
Same thing happened to me. I discovered the band around the same time as you and that was also my favorite song for a long time. The band has since done several works, none so close to the first, but Omega somehow reminded me of The Phantom Agony.
I'm from the Philippines, and my affection for this band runs deep! I began listening to their music back in 2015, and my love for it remains unwavering!
OMG this is the best, this will be on my watchlist for years to come. Consign to oblivion was the first song I ever heard from Epica, and I've been a fan ever since. Absolutely one of the most talented groups, and I'm 57 and have listened to countless bands across the globe. This is a true masterpiece. Bravo Epica, freaking Bravo
An absolute masterpiece - the Rivers and Once Upon a nightmare one shot is absolutely stunning... incredible artistry. To perform like this with no audience, just raw, is genius. Transformational for me when it came out - hope, spirit, fire and joy!!
Besides their beautiful art, it’s not even open to a discussion, what a gorgeous posture does Simone have! She ages exceptionally awesome! Her body, her gestures. Amazing girl, amazing! 🫶🏻
I watched this when it streamed live way back in the pandemic days - money well spent, it was a bright light of hope in a dark time. Awesome then, still awesome now.
@@zoehelkin Nope definitely no playback lol, there's a difference between playbacked performance and a pre-recorded performance. Omega Alive is the last one.
One of the most best metal shows i have ever seen in my 30 years of metal experience. Deep from my soul sincere congratulations Epica....Simone you are amazing. Thank you !
This is truly a Magnum Opus of Symphonic Metal . From the opening until the finale the musicianship and SIMONE 's vocals are outstanding . A fantastic production . Congratulations 🎊 to all that made this happen . 😊🤘👌👍
Дуже цікаве і збалансоване поєднання мелодики яка бере за душу та надважкого металу який розриває на шматки. Багато нереально цікавих гармонічних ходів, творчих переходів і технічних елементів. Костюми, рухи, шоу, світло, якісний звук, відеомонтаж і все продумано до найдрібніших деталей. Молодці!
I've been following the band closely since the release of Omega. I've been to two of their concerts since then and I can proudly say that the band is in their peak. The album just doesn't have a bad song and it's in my top 3 I've been listening to since its' release. Simone has never sounded so good both studio and live like now. She truly excels vocally! The chemistry between everyone is great. Mark's growl vocals are at their best also. I've been listening since 2011 but the last few years I've grown to love them immensely. Thank you for sharing the Omega alive with us. I can't help but get goosebumps all over every time I listen to Cry for the moon in this. I can't wait to see what they've got for us for the Symphonic Synergy!
My first concert with Epica was over 20 years ago. At least that's how it seems to me. Back then, the band was still relatively unknown in Germany. They played in a small hall in Hamburg. Today it's still the same band. And they're still as good as they were back then. Maybe they're even a little better than they were back then. Whatever: It's a pleasure to see them so successful. Thank you for all these years, EPICA! Forever your fan!
This is just another type of live experience, like a tale you cannot look away from. Completely mesmerizing. Much more than a concert. Thank you for sharing so much of your art and making this world a brighter place 💜✨🤘🏼
@@zoehelkin cheesus Christ, not this again. WE KNOW. They never claimed it was live, they were absolutely clear when they said it was a RECORDED performance. However it IS a performance. Not a live one and definitely embellished, yes. But a performance nontheless. There's nothing wrong with that.
I discovererd Epica when I was 15 years old with the release of Design Your Universe and the Kingdom of Heaven solo still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. Can't wait for the new record and to see you guys live again ❤ The best symphonic metal band to ever do it
This show made me fell in love with songs like "rivers, victims and in all conscience" I didn't know those songs and I love them ❤❤ thanks Epica it's cool that we can remember the time when the show was realized
@@zoehelkin She didn't playback during Omega Alive. You clearly hear a difference between the studio version and Omega Alive. It was pre-recorded, but she still sang live for the recordings.
🙏 Thank you for posting the full show! It's unbelievably beautiful collection of amazing artwork. Amazing masterpiece. I could watch it forever and still enjoy every moment. 👏👏👏👏 🤘😎✨🔥💖♥️💖🔥✨😎🤘
Amongst all the online shows done during the pandemic, Epica's Omega Alive is by far the best one. Everything is tune to perfection : the performance is amazing, the setup is incredible and the setlist is awesome!
I have seen Epica 5 times already since I always go to all their lives in my country since the 1st one I attended. They are always great but this one is exceptional and extraordinary. I wish I get a chance to attend one of these type of lives in the future in person.
01:06:04 Once Upon a Nightmare On the way to sacred shores And in the arms of the life that we adore Moonlight shows a white design That's been waiting for a chance to seize a soul once more Sweet lad, o come and join me, do! Such pretty games I will play with you On a road Changing course Lightning strikes where we depart An eerie voice as the night embrace the heart Resonating from the life tha is moving on To new windows of the soul Will you, sweet lad, come along with me? My daughters shall care for you tenderly Hear his mystic voice I love you, your comeliness charms me, my boy! And if you're not willing, my force I'll employ He feeds on stainless souls We are stuck in the night Ancient power will strike Feel the fire Now run into his arms Leave your shelter behind We are going to fly Higher than high We will take on the sky Feel my senses United by the night Now it's time to close the door and open up like before New windows of the soul The silence of the void A father's life destroyed Stuck in the night Ancient power will strike Feel the fire Burn inside Run into my arms Leave your shelter behind We're going to fly See us fly And hear our cry We're out of sight Higher than high we will Take on the sky Feel my senses Out of my sight But live on in my mind New windows of our soul
A few weeks after my first comment : the rendering of Rivers is probably the masterpiece of this video. It let Simone's voice going as far as we can dream.
I must congratulate them, it really is impressive in every audio-visual and artistic sense, one of the best concerts I have ever seen in my life, in my opinion the best symphonic metal band in the world.👏
I remember this coming out during the pandemic. Bands weren't performing, or recording their respective parts separately. This performance brought back a sense of normalcy. I was not able to watch during the three days when it was available, but I have the box set and thoroughly enjoy it. Thank you!
A few days ago I started to watch the Once Upon A Nightmares Omega Alive Version again - now they uploaded the whole thing ! ♥ Aww i love them so much!
Love you posting his live-stream for everybody to see. Watched the live-stream 3 times and got the blu-ray. This is still amazing. You are my favorite live-band. Have a ticket for both shows in September. Can not wait to see you with a live orchestra. Thanks. 🔥🤘❤️
I was fortunate to witness this amazing livestream when it first came out. It was absolutely euphoric!!! The best livestream show of its time!!! I'm so glad I can watch it again. Thank you Epica!!!! 🥰💖
Buenisima puesta en escena de todos, se ve todo muy chulo y simone esta super afinada y perfecta, se nota la preparacion y el trabajo de masterizacion. Epica4Ever!
I am so happy I have this concert as Earbook Edition! Simone's voice has improved over the years and so far the best voice in a live show. Her voice live here is so what the same as in audio version or even better in live. It gives me goosebumps!
Solo me pongo los audífonos full volumen para escuchar a Epica y se me olvidan todos malos momentos que estamos pasando en Venezuela... Te Amo Epica, Gracias Por Existir. 💛💙💔
I loved loved this show. It brought me such joy during lockdown. There was something to celebrate and something to look forward to. It was also breathtaking. Amazing production
Hola!!! Es una banda para existir de por vida!!! Tremenda banda!!! EPICA !!! Guillermo de Córdoba argentina.hace años la vengo escuchando y seguiré sin detener!! Gracias!! Gracias!!!
AWESOME! I watched the original stream and got the disc too. Its so awesome that you guys put your work out there for all to enjoy. Can't wait to see you live again and to hear the new upcoming album! I Love You Guys!
Ωmega alive has no point of comparison, it surpasses all forms of perfection in each wonderful song, it is the most incredible and wonderful work of art that they could give us, they are the best epic 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻♥♥
I saw Epica with Sabaton, I saw Sabaton opening for Judas Priest big Arenas, and I saw Witin Temtations opening for Iron Maiden . Now, Nightwish is not touring for a while.... So what a bout a US. Tour in big Arenas, you guys a ready to conquer the US. Sabaton, Witin Temtations and Epica 2024 tour!!!
Fantastic, thank you for releasing this! It's just as amazing as when I first saw it, when it was originally streamed. Would absolutely love to go to one of your concerts someday!
I absolutely agree, I never thought they would become my favorite symphonic metal band, but they currently are. Their last album and this concert are just pure art
This show was incredible I purchased the live stream and rewatched many times after that It's great that the full experience is now available officially now, for everyone to enjoy
I remember exactly what I feel when I watched this concert for the first time. And watching it again... Still let me speechless. This is a pure work of ART, in it's epic form. A MASTERPIECE, with all the greatness of the word. This is why Epica it's my favorite band. Forever and Ever ❤
I really have to congratulate the team that Epica has had since Omega, it seems that the band finally understood that they are paying attention to promoting their work. In addition to generating content whenever possible for social media. That's what makes a band seen nowadays. 👏
They are so good at marketing! Same as music of course
Yes!!! They really outdid themselves this era!!
My favorite albums are The Quantum Enigma and Holographic Principle. Most likely due to their production quality thanks to their new producer Joost van den Broek. He also worked on Omega.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
In other words, you just want free stuff lol
The whole thing in 4k for free? Thanks Epica!
Only Epica! Gotta love 'em!
Actually as a huge fan I am super happy to have it on youtube, but on the other hand I am a little disappointed since i bought the dvd and the bluray. I think some materials should stay exclusively in physical format, otherwise people could stop buying them... (not me, I am a compulsive Epica collector xd)
@@niccolorighetti3 I was a bit surprised but there’s still nothing quite like the fidelity you get from a physical Blu-ray with lossless audio
@@mackie1001 true, I think the prices of these items could be a little lower if it's not an exclusive content... Anyway, up the Epica!

Yeah true, Babymetal is the only other band I can recall doing it too. However, Babymetal is in another level hahaha xD

To me the key was showing interaction between members plus being creative with the visuals but not overboard.

@@polecat987AVATAR had an amazing set of live stream shows with rotating sets
Once Upon a Nightmare is probably one of the most amazing, epic and iconic metal performances in history.
I couldn't agree more!!!!

Ad Infinitum did something similar too... Melissa has grown so much as a vocalist. It would be great to see them and Epica do a project together.
The concert of the decade. Epica deserved this. This is absolute perfection. This is incredible. This is Epica. Every music fan should sit back and enjoy the spectacle, at least once in their lifetime. This is symphonic metal.
it's not a concert, this is playback
@@zoehelkin It is post produced but they are playing and singing live. You can easily hear it.

It's all great, but I love especially the "In all Conscience" Vocal Performance from Simone very much, it sounds so pure and powerful.
Hearing Simone shouting out Cry for the Moon was a pretty special moment. It was probably one of the first Epica songs I'd heard. One of the first songs I'd heard when I discovered underground music was a thing. And one of the most iconic songs in symphonic metal. Funny thing is, I didn't like it at first!

When I was watching it for the first time, I couldn't beleive that was live sound. Simone is so stable❤️
It was post-produced. It isn't 100% live

01:06:04 Once Upon a Nightmare
On the way to sacred shores
And in the arms of the life that we adore
Moonlight shows a white design
That's been waiting for a chance to seize a soul once more
Sweet lad, o come and join me, do!
Such pretty games I will play with you
On a road
Changing course
Lightning strikes where we depart
An eerie voice as the night embrace the heart
Resonating from the life tha is moving on
To new windows of the soul
Will you, sweet lad, come along with me?
My daughters shall care for you tenderly
Hear his mystic voice
I love you, your comeliness charms me, my boy!
And if you're not willing, my force I'll employ
He feeds on stainless souls
We are stuck in the night
Ancient power will strike
Feel the fire
Now run into his arms
Leave your shelter behind
We are going to fly
Higher than high
We will take on the sky
Feel my senses
United by the night
Now it's time to close the door
and open up like before
New windows of the soul
The silence of the void
A father's life destroyed
Stuck in the night
Ancient power will strike
Feel the fire
Burn inside
Run into my arms
Leave your shelter behind
We're going to fly
See us fly
And hear our cry
We're out of sight
Higher than high we will
Take on the sky
Feel my senses
Out of my sight
But live on in my mind
New windows of our soul
Such an iconic moment in the show at 23:16.
This is great. Full quality production and performance and it's available to fans!! 🤘
A few weeks after my first comment : the rendering of Rivers is probably the masterpiece of this video. It let Simone's voice going as far as we can dream.
Epica ❤ always in my heart I love you guys 💪🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🖤💛
Thank you very much for sharing this on UA-cam and even in 4K! This according to me is the best performance of Epica to date.

Cómo siempre, Geniales!!! Siempre será maravilloso verlos 🙌🏻✨☺️😀 ya estamos listos en México 🇲🇽 para recibirlos con mucho cariño ☺️✨✨✨
years passing and epica still amazing ♥
Just reinforce how the band is great live, a force of nature, surrounded by a fantastic production...this is for eternity 🔥🤘🏻
This was very obviously not a live event. This is a playbacked performance, like a videoclip.
Wow!!! Thank you very much!!! This Is a great gift!!!
I am so happy I have this concert as Earbook Edition! Simone's voice has improved over the years and so far the best voice in a live show. Her voice live here is so what the same as in audio version or even better in live. It gives me goosebumps!
Solo me pongo los audífonos full volumen para escuchar a Epica y se me olvidan todos malos momentos que estamos pasando en Venezuela... Te Amo Epica, Gracias Por Existir. 💛💙💔
Simone bravo je maakt die show uitzonderlijk ❤
Wow a masterpiece of production and visual sound experience ❤❤❤
I loved loved this show. It brought me such joy during lockdown. There was something to celebrate and something to look forward to. It was also breathtaking. Amazing production
Hola!!! Es una banda para existir de por vida!!! Tremenda banda!!! EPICA !!! Guillermo de Córdoba argentina.hace años la vengo escuchando y seguiré sin detener!! Gracias!! Gracias!!!
AWESOME! I watched the original stream and got the disc too. Its so awesome that you guys put your work out there for all to enjoy. Can't wait to see you live again and to hear the new upcoming album! I Love You Guys!
Ωmega alive has no point of comparison, it surpasses all forms of perfection in each wonderful song, it is the most incredible and wonderful work of art that they could give us, they are the best epic 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻♥♥
Saya dari Negara Indonesia. Sejak Epica konser di Jakarta - Indonesia. Saya langsung sangat suka lagu-lagu dan musik EPICA.
❤❤❤Epica. Semoga sukses
I saw Epica with Sabaton, I saw Sabaton opening for Judas Priest big Arenas, and I saw Witin Temtations opening for Iron Maiden . Now, Nightwish is not touring for a while.... So what a bout a US. Tour in big Arenas, you guys a ready to conquer the US. Sabaton, Witin Temtations and Epica 2024 tour!!!
OMG! Seeing Rivers of this version, live, should be a indescribable experience!!
Eu escutei esse show no dia do lançamento, em junho de 2021, e finalmente lançaram ele completo aqui 🇧🇷
Such an incredible experience overall, but that intro to Once Upon A Nightmare...pure goosebumps.
Thankyou so much. We can witness these masterpieces of Epica for free
I have such fond memory of this show. An amazing experience from the best band in the world. I will definitely rewatch this another 1000 times.
awesome playlist
Grabe talaga Epica! Idol na idol ko talaga since mid 2000s pa! Love you!
The Level of Quality and talent thats on display here from the band to the production crew and FX team is Next level.
Fantastic, thank you for releasing this! It's just as amazing as when I first saw it, when it was originally streamed. Would absolutely love to go to one of your concerts someday!
Sadly, Nightwish and Within Temptation both lost something for me over the last few years, but Epica just consistently get more impressive.
I absolutely agree, I never thought they would become my favorite symphonic metal band, but they currently are. Their last album and this concert are just pure art
Agree, moved on from WT
Nightwish will always live rent free in my head, alongside Epica.
Yeah Seen them 5 times and they are a cut above those 2 bands and it's amazing how many great songs they have WOW 25 I believe
Agreed 100%
mengingat bagaimana saya belajar menyanyikan Cry For The Moon, dan ternyata lagu itu sudah 20 tahun berlalu, sungguh terharu. Panjang umur EPICA.
This show was incredible
I purchased the live stream and rewatched many times after that
It's great that the full experience is now available officially now, for everyone to enjoy
I remember exactly what I feel when I watched this concert for the first time. And watching it again... Still let me speechless. This is a pure work of ART, in it's epic form. A MASTERPIECE, with all the greatness of the word. This is why Epica it's my favorite band. Forever and Ever ❤
Finallyyyyyy! Thank you so much, guys and gal. Love y'all ❤
how I love their music and these guys
Even tears appear on powerful tracks
