Well smack me upside the head and call me Suzy, I forgot Keeper of The Seven Keys!!! That is one of my favorite epic songs and I didn't even think about it. While I'm at it I didn't mention Metallica's ...And Justice For All and To Live Is To Die (both over 9 minutes and both real awesome songs).

I'd classify most of Manowar's catalouge as Epic

I'm going to add Dream Theater-The Ministry Of Lost Souls and In the Presence of Enemies, Pt. 1 & 2. Listening to systematic chaos last night, and although I was a little harsh on it at first now that I've given it about 5 spins I finally see how good these two epic songs are (the former more so than the latter).
