Dutch symphonic metal giants EPICA have recorded their eighth album at Sandlane Recording Facilities in the Netherlands.This past April, after already,recording a full orchestra, the band recorded backing vocals together with the children’s choir from Brabant Talent. In the seventh Studio Vlog episode, you will get a behind-the-scenes look at this recording session.
Coen Janssen comments: “I am so happy and proud to finally have a real children’s choir on our album. This sound is one you cannot get anywhere else and it fits perfectly in our cinematic music. The 60 kids did a great job after preparing the music for two months! I am really proud of the result and can’t wait for everyone to hear it! To have my own kids sing in the choir as well makes me even more proud 😉 Enjoy!”
EPICA’s first new music is scheduled for release this fall through Nuclear Blast Records. In support of this album the band will comprehensively tour Europe during the rescheduled “Epic Apocalypse” co-headline tour with APOCALYPTICA and support-act WHEEL.
