5:00? That's it? I don't consider something an epic until it reached the 7-min. mark, though there are exceptions.

Wintersun - Sadness & Hate
Blind Guardian - And Then There Was Silence
Opeth - The Moor
Symphony X - The Odyssey
Dream Theater - Stream of Consciousness
Rhapsody - Sacred Power of Raging Winds
Sonata Arctica - The Power of One

Just the ones I got off the top of my head. There are plenty more.

Ha ha you listen to some shit music!

Mine would be something like:

Metallica - every song on AJFA
Iron Maiden - Rime of the Ancient Mariner, 7th Son, Paschendale
Opeth - Black Rose Immortal
Jethro Tull - A Passion Play, Thick As A Brick and Baker Street Muse
Vital Remains - Dechristianize
Deicide - The Lords Sedition (not exactly epic other than the intro admittedly)


and some others I can't remember.

Bathory- Shores in Flames
Primordial- The Gathering Wilderness
Enslaved- 793 (Slagett Om Lindisfarne)

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Lost Horizon - highlander
quite possibly the most challenging song for me to do vocally

great song.

You have no right to judge the music I listen to. Just make your fucking list and don't go trolling in the process.

Edit: length has everything to do with being epic. In fact, length is one of the most, if not THE most, important factor in deciding an epic.

If you like Powermetal types, there is a 16.26 min song on the new Rhapsody album called-The Mystic Prophecy Of The Demon Knight. The song is in 5 parts, very cool stuff.

You're confusing the style of poem and the descriptive term, which certainly does not just mean 'long'.

Ha ha, calm down - like you point out, I have no right to judge you, so take my shit with a pinch of salt.

It IS shit though that stuff you listen to.
