when an artist gets more ambitious that usual, you expect them to tout the results, and critics and audiences to pay attention. but sometimes that isn't the case, and you get a deep cut instead of a defining statement. it could be because the work in question flopped, but often (and more intriguingly) it's as if the creator wanted it to stay obscure.
what exactly "epic" entails is open to interpretation. it could be something longer, more expansive, more "all out" than usual--or it could be anything that feels particularly weird, one-off, special.
what are some good examples? is this even a real phenomenon or just wishful thinking?
(a legendary example might be the beatles' "carnival of light"--although afaik we can't hear any of it. so i guess you could distinguish between obscured and lost, but i'd be interested in examples of either kind.)
