Released on September 30, the new album will then take the band around the world once more. We donвЂ™t just offer great songs, we offer food for thought!вЂќД®PICA will officially launch В»The Holographic PrincipleВ« at two special shows at their own Epic Metal Fest in the Netherlands and Brazil on October 1st and 15th respectively. Besides the music, the lyrics have taken a big role as well. вЂњIs this world a hologram? Are there multiple realities? Inside our mind and in our dreams we can create entire worlds, and the parallels with virtual reality are obvious. вЂњSo here we proceed from where we left off with В»The Quantum EnigmaВ«, on the search for what is real,вЂќ Simone notes. At that point, people might realize that the world weвЂ™re living in now is perhaps also a virtual reality of a higher reality.вЂќ ItвЂ™s not perfect yet but in a few years the techniques will be so good that you wonвЂ™t be able to tell if itвЂ™s our вЂrealвЂ™ or the virtual reality world. вЂњNowadays you can put on a virtual reality mask and youвЂ™ll find yourself in a different world. вЂњI was fascinated by the concept of virtual reality,вЂќ Mark explains.

I for sure had to be on top of my game during this whole process!вЂќДЄnd once again, EPICAвЂ™s lyrics ensure that the album is also absorbing on an emotional and intellectual level, as the band return to the endpoint of В»The Quantum EnigmaВ« and set off on another voyage of scientific discovery. вЂњYou can find lots of interesting guitar riffing, accentuating the fact we are a metal band in the first place.

вЂњWith every album we tend to get heavier and that definitely goes for the new album,вЂќ Isaac explanes. With lashings of sumptuous orchestration and a never-ending stream of ingenious but brutal metal riffs and propulsive rhythms underpinning the whole explosive enterprise, this is an album that raises the bar for the entire symphonic metal genre. Meanwhile, the shimmering soundscapes and multi-layered melodrama of 'Once Upon A Nightmare' and the towering 11-minute title track confirm that В»The Holographic PrincipleВ« is also the bandвЂ™s most musically extravagant and daring release so far. One listen to thunderous new songs like 'Edge Of The Blade' and 'Universal Death Squad' will confirm that В»The Holographic PrincipleВ« is EPICAвЂ™s heaviest album to date. Janssen, Simone J.m.Recorded once again with esteemed producer Joost van den Broek at the controls, В»The Holographic PrincipleВ« represents the most impressive and powerful expression of EPICAвЂ™s boldly inventive sound yet.
