We're a Dark Metal (not Black Metal) band striving to create a unique niche in the crowded Metal scene. The focus is to create a sense of wonder, all while delivering a palette of distinguished beauty and cacophonous rage, while being insistent upon melodicism and aggression, both light and shade, day and night.
Examining fear and wonder, in both trial and tribulation, leads one down the lyrical path of Epicurean. Ambiguity is present, although if you search deep enough, you will find a topical nature underneath it all.
The focus is to create a melting pot of Metal, with an all encompassing nature that promotes diversity, melody, and a hint of intellectualism. Intense shows, calculated musicianship, and focused energy all combine to create the essence of Epicurean.Band/artist history
It's a long story but basically, we officially started in January of 2001. We've played many great shows and had many lineup changes through the years. But it's always been for the best. Though I'm friends with most of the previous members, the current lineup is the best it's ever been in my opinion.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes we do and we love it. We try to play as often as possible. We especially like to play outside of our home state, Minnesota.

Dimmu Borgir, Cradle of Filth, Type O Negative, Slayer, Megadeth, Dream Theater, Savatage, Opeth and Borknagar are our biggest influences.What equipment do you use?
