Design Your Universe, the new studio album from Holland’s symphonic metal band Epica, has debuted on the Billboard Heatseekers chart at #12 and the Top Hard Music Albums chart at #47 for first-week sales in excess of 2,000 copies.
"The album title, Design Your Universe, deals with new breakthroughs in quantum physics," states guitarist/songwriter Mark Jansen.
"
It proves that we are all connected to each other on subatomic level. Also, it shows that we can create or at least influence matter with our thoughts… a very interesting fact. Because it changes everything for us, our whole worldview collapses once you accept these facts and integrate them in your lives."
Design Your Universe currently ranks #6 on Amazon.com’s Top 100 Best-Selling Rock/Metal MP3 albums list with 10 days in the Top 100.
Epica will be headlining a North American tour in 2010 featuring Threat Signal and Blackguard.
