Yes, this song really is epic. I like the way the guitar builds up tension near the end of the song to explode in a beautiful lead. I can picture the lone Survivor running away to escape his enemies and after escaping he stands on a hill looking back at what was once his homeland, alone, beaten and homeless. But then he remembers his oath and he knows he will return one day to avenge the death of his family and friends. Well, at least, thats what I see in my mind, when I listen to the solo :)
