REAL epic as fuck songs.

[Decimator]

I think this will do
The other songs on this album are not as good IMO

The whole 'the human equation' -album is epicness on its own!

 

[Nuno Filipe]

This is all one song divided in 7 parts i think, theres nothing more Epic that 30 minutes song that is about a epic Odissery.

There is something even more EPIC!lol It´s one track with 60 minutes.
Check it out:

 

[Metaltastic]

Fuck yeah, I've always loved "Light of Day, Day of Darkness", except for the crazy saxophone/moaning chick solo (I'm not sure if I'd completely eliminate it if I had my druthers, but I'd definitely shorten it)

 

[TheDriller]

its been years since i first heard this song and it still sends shivers down my spine.



not epic in a gay-power-metal sense, but staring-wide-eyed-into-the-ultimate-void epic.

"Blessed is he, that mvrders Christ in Hymself!!! and in hys fellow men!"

FAQ:How do Epic? ¯\(°_o)/¯

A metal guide by motomoto

Rule number 1.
Read books.Lots of them.Anything with dragons,dwarfs,elf's,knights,barbarians will do.
Get into the spirit.

Rule number 2.
Don't rely only on your electric guitar.
Learn how to play flutes, bagpipes, get many midi sounds with waves splashing,
swords bashing, horses, donkeys.Whatever!!!!
They didn't have EMG's in the middle age.Dah

Rule number 3.
Start wearing leather pants.NO, i repeat, NO fuckin underwear.
No diesel jeans or boxers in the middies either.

Rule number 4.
Get used to the fuckin language.
If i'll hear you say ''get in the car bitch'' i reap you tong!!!
From now on its ''enter thy vehicle my mistress''

Rule number 5.
Don't play fast.
If somebody wanted to hear some riffs he'll listen to Slayer.
One chord at the time.Nobody's rushing you.Keep the feeling intact.

Rule number 6.
If you don't have a pretty voice, lets say...like a bard, don't worry.
It's not your fault that you were trying to sound like George ''Corpsegrinder'' Fisher when you were 15.
Get a hot chick to sing!!!!
Worst case scenario, if your music sucks nobody is gonna complain





So now that we've sorted it, lets bring on the REAL FUCKIN EPIC songs

[slayercannibalsuffohead]

Maiden are the true EPIC masters!

But I do have the winner here ........... drum roll ....................




My fav though,


This is the only song that makes me teary, (2008 version, still good though)


"Saddle my horse, as I drink my last ale" FUCKING EPIC! (original)

 

[Nuno Filipe]

Fuck yeah, I've always loved "Light of Day, Day of Darkness", except for the crazy saxophone/moaning chick solo (I'm not sure if I'd completely eliminate it if I had my druthers, but I'd definitely shorten it)

That album is quite good maybe their best album to date. Saxophone is there to be more progressive

I don't really consider this epic, though I consider it perfect.

 

[Mutant]

This song is about astrally projecting / soul traveling to hell.
Can't get any more epic than that.

 

[JamieK]

I can't believe there's a thread about epic songs and no-one has mentioned Wintersun yet!



Enjoy

 

[MetalJonesy]

Judas Priest - A Touch Of Evil


Metallica - Fixxer


Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (live 94 Pulse)



those have been a few favs of mine since childhood!!

[AEL89]
