	If you want an epic track that melds late 70's Rush with early 80's Rush and a dash of Zeppelin, there's Crown Lands with the epic 18+ minute track Starlifter: Fearless Pt. II. Posting a live version to showcase that this a two-person band. Edited by mathman0806 - July 02 2023 at 18:45

	Comedy Of Errors - The Seventh Seal. I think the apocalyptic track of these Scottish makes a fine addition. Listen on Bandcamp: https://comedyoferrors.bandcamp.com/track/the-seventh-seal

	I propose "The Last Crystal Bearer" by Twilight Force; it's epic not just because of its length, but because of how friggin over-the-top grandiose it is! Edited by bardberic - July 12 2023 at 17:39
