Download Kamelot Epica Album for Free on Mediafire
It must have been hard work creating a sequel to his masterpiece The Black Halo. Norwegian power metal heroes Kamelot managed to create an even better album several times before their last, and in all that time they never released a bad one. But it all culminated in the two “Faust”-inspired efforts (the other being Epica) that rank among the greatest Power Metal albums ever produced. Roy Khan has improved with each album, and the live performances in particular have become the epitome of a perfect combination of heaviness and melody in his metal musical niche (see here: One Cold Winter’s Night).
In the spring of 2007, Kamelot toured Europe without having released the album. They played three songs live and the audience responded with more than polite applause. So, has Ghost Opera dethroned The Black Halo and is it Kamelot’s best album yet?
GHOST reveals his influences
In addition to the current single, Tobias Forge and his combo perform songs by TINA TURNER, TELEVISION, THE STANGLERS and IRON MAIDEN. According to official information material, the songs are part of the band’s DNA. The EP will be released on May 18. Due to the age restriction, the current clip can only be viewed directly on YouTube.

Verdict
This work is a real outrage, and looking into perspective to the best clubs of Blind Guardian, Gamma Ray or Rhapsody. Kamelot laid the foundations of what would later become symphonic metal with a female vocalist at the helm and they continue to have a guest vocalist in their live shows, something that makes them unique on stage. The quality of the works is overwhelming and there are absolutely spectacular songs, even some of the intros and theme links.
The group evolved taking a step forward as they did with Fourth Dimension and Karma. The best was yet to come since Fausto’s story needed another album and with the subsequent The Black Halo they would surpass themselves again by adding new textures or venturing to unexplored limits. I know is a man who doesn’t like heavy metal, but he can enjoy Kamelot, and he continues with bands that have his specialty. There are real wonders in this work.
