Dutch symphonic rockers EPICA released a video for the song 'This Is The Time' (found below), written for the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), earlier this year. The track will be issued as a digital single on October 15th. The band has issued the following statement:
"The awareness that we should be more careful with the earth, increases every day. We should also try to live in closer harmony with nature. Epica is lyric-wise strongly connected to these themes and would like to devote themselves to this cause for a better world!"Commented WWF/ Jörgen van Beem: "WWF's mission is to stop the degradation of our planet's natural environment, and build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. A planet where people and nature can thrive together, in a stable environment, now, and for generations to come. For more than 40 years, WWF has been at the forefront in protecting the Amazon and are therefore enthusiastic that Epica decided to raise funds for the Brazilian forest programs of WWF, which ensure conservation and sustainable development throughout the world's largest rainforest."
