Last December, Dutch symphonic metal giants EPICA surprised their fans with a very special covers EP release entitled, EPICA VS. Attack On Titan. The release, which was only available in Japan, featured metal versions of the theme songs from the highly successful manga series with 70 Million copies in print turned worldwide aired anime "Attack On Titan". Today, the band announced the EP will be available outside Japan on July 20th via Nuclear Blast Records.
EPICA VS. Attack On Titan was recorded during the summer of July of 2017 at Sandlane Recording Facilities by Joost van den Broek. The original songs, which were influenced by the music of EPICA, were composed by Revo of popular Japanese band LINKED HORIZON. For the EP, tracks were adapted by EPICA and produced by Joost van den Broek. The choir arrangements and scoring were completed by keyboardist Coen Janssen who also handled the orchestral arrangements with Joost van den Broek.

LYRICS
Nos rapti sumus aut tamen raptores?
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Crimson Bow and Arrow
Waiting for the storm won't help you
Just the will to fight can change you
Clean your weapons, blow the dust off
Fear and prayers will never save us
We can't hide our pride behind fear
We will not let them be this near
In the end our strength unites us
Just the will to fight will save us
No, we will never ever fail
We stand up and we fight for the moment of the truth
Stand up and fight for their demise
We won't surrender
Day and night dividing the legions
Ignorance will show its weakness
Lasting peace an abandoned illusion
Blinded by trust in a twilight zone
Day and night disguising their secrets
Ignorance will kill the fearless
Offerings of reckless courage
Freedom for us all
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Fear the bow
The humility of imprisonment
Fight with crimson bow and arrow
Far away from the solemn castle walls
Jäger's hunting prey to death now
Diving into the instincts of the night
Red is piercing through the twilight
Soldiers with their wings of freedom will attack
Free the unrelenting slaves right now
Right now!
Not knowing the names of our
Broken trees and the trampled flowers
The fallen bird awaits the breeze
No one will guide you
Everlasting calm of the herds
It is but a vast illusion
Failing freedom of our dying wolves
Marks the era of confusion
Praying won't help
Freedom and our way of life
These are but a vast illusion
Fight for your land
When the darkness hits our crying wolves
It marks the era of conclusion
"Those who only complain about their helplessness will not change a thing.
The boy will pick up the black sword.
Hate and anger are a two-edged blade
And soon it will show its teeth."
All that ends this brutal game is not the weapon nor the skill.
Reach out for the desire and awaken your will to kill
Go and free your mind. Immerse yourself in unstoppable killer instinct.
Bring back the hope, illuminate the darkness
Stand up and fight for their demise
We won't surrender now
Enthrone the evil in disguise
You can't defend her
Day and night dividing the legions
Ignorance will show its weakness
Lasting peace an abandoned illusion
Blinded by trust in a twilight zone
Day and night disguising their secrets
Ignorance will kill the fearless
Offerings of reckless courage
Freedom for us all
On to battle
Here we are the hunters
Red as fire
Crimson Bow and Arrow
On the battle
Here we die as heroes
Red as fire
Hearts will bleed to death
