Simone Simons comments: “Welcome to the behind the scenes of the making of Epica 8. In this first video, we are working hard on the preproduction of our new album, making sure all details are perfect. It was like always a pleasure to spend time with the band and Joost. I am so happy with how to songs evolved and can't wait for you all to hear them!”...
