Random Track of the Day

Epica, Epica, bloody Epica!
Seriously, doesn't the random-o-meter know that choosing the same band over and over is not random? I think this is about the fourth time we've had a track from this band, and here they are again, this time from their album “Design your universe”, this is “Martyr of the free world”.
Martyr of the free world --- Epica --- from "Design your universe" on Nuclear Blast
A somewhat heavier and more straight-ahead rock song than previous tracks we've featured from Epica, this is a pretty powerful song, with thunderous drumming and great guitar, but on the minus side they do tend to use that bloody “death growling”, even though it's only in backing. Interesting use of choral vocals too, making up a fairly complex track really.
