Dutch symphonic rockers EPICA will release their new album, Requiem For The Indifferent, in Europe on March 9th and the US and Canada on March 13th via Nuclear Blast.

The band has released its third teaser trailer for the new album. Watch the video along with the previous two, below:

The first single from the album called 'Storm The Sorrow' was released on February 3rd and a video of the song will be shot later this month.

Commented by the band: "The song 'Storm the Sorrow' is the obvious choice for us to release as a first single. It has all the Epica ingredients and also a catchy groove but still is a powerful metal-song. Lyrically, 'Storm the Sorrow' deals with criticism and how to handle that on every level. Funny fact: when we were working on this song, the working title was 'Signature' because the rhythm which is used in the verse is based on Yves' signature!"

‘Karma’

‘Monopoly On Truth’

‘Delirium’

‘Requiem For The Indifferent’
