THEN WHAT’S IT LIKE WHEN EPICA ARE LEASHED?

I’m just sayin’. This is pretty tame for it to be “Unleashed.”

Also, new rule: videos cannot jump through time and announce said jump through time with a card that says “X amount of time later.” You’re working in a truncated format, directors. Deal with it.

Reader Nate Schwartz sent us this video, with the promise that it’s “like Nightwish, but with cooler guitar bits.” Since I don’t like Nightwish, this was maybe not Nate’s strongest sales pitch. Still, I recognize that a lot of you like this band and it’s definitely not the worst thing I’ve heard today, so here ya go.

“Unleashed” comes off of Epica’s new album, Design Your Universe, which comes out October 16 in Europe and November 3 in the U.S. on Nuclear Blast.
