Someone in a previous post mentioned that "epic" probably means different things to different people. When I think of an epic song, it's usually long without ever getting boring, complex, engaging, dynamic, and with lots of ear candy. Something that I rarely if ever grow tired of. Some examples that I haven't seen in the previous posts:
King Crimson - Easy Money
Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize
Pelican - March Into The Sea
Shpongle - Divine Moments of Truth
These are the songs that had an influence on me, I hope that you can get something out of them.

Stone roses - Fools Gold
