What is usually a sleepy edge of Bristol has found itself with a rather diverse audience – it’s fitting because each act on tonight’s bill of APOCALYPTICA, EPICA and WHEEL is so much more different to the next. With everything from doom-style progressive riffs, to classical takes on METALLICA

With the now pretty full Academy suitably warmed up, the stage had been transformed into an impressive sight ready for the Dutch symphonic powerhouse that is Epica. As the house lights faded away, the band hit the stage with purpose and energy.
