Is Battle of Evermore by Led Zeppelin an epic song?

Nah. I can think of better, by Zep.

But I could be wrong...been a long time since I've listened to that song.

Maybe it's just so played out and also because it's on LZ4, but not a huge fan. 10 Years Gone and Into the Light are better epics.

It's very good and I think "epic" is a fair descriptor. But that doesn't mean it's their best song or anything. But it really has an "epic" flavor.

I think this song has a protesty/flower child vibe.

Kashmir feels epic to me, particularly compared to this.

I remember wrapping xmas presents one year with that song looping. I must have listened to it 20 times. Never got sick of it.
