Country of Origin: USA Genre: Thrash Metal and Traditional Metal Bio: With a string of solid albums dating back to their debut in 1995, Nevermore has firmly established themselves as one of the premier modern American metal bands. In a genre overrun with staleness and unoriginality, Nevermore continues to deliver quality music, mixing just the right amounts of power, melody, crunch and aggression to great effect. The roots of the band go back to an earlier band called Sanctuary, a similarly-styled technical power metal outfit that themselves released two albums before internal problems forced their breakup. Vocalist Warrell Dane is Nevermore's trump card, as he's one of the best in the business, with a clear yet forceful voice that never wanders out of control. Nevermore really have yet to release a sub-standard album, and considering the stellar reviews given to their latest release (This Godless Endeavor), the band are maintaining their reputation as a premier metal act. Current Line-Up:Warrel Dane -vocals Jeff Loomis -guitars Jim Sheppard -bass Van Williams -drums Discography:-Nevermore (1995) -In Memory (EP) (1996) -The Politics of Ecstasy (1996) -Dreaming Neon Black (1999) -Dead Heart in a Dead World (2000) -Enemies of Reality (2003) -This Godless Endeavor (2005) Personal Take: I think the description in the Bio is very apt. Nevermore is a relatively underappreciated band, with the powerful vocals of Warrel Dane and the superb guitar work from Jeff Loomis, I would expect more casual metal fans to be familiar with Nevermore. Examples:-Believe in Nothing www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxUm1hzYWCA-Enemies of Reality www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsaTc2DAuC4&feature=related-Sorrowed Man www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6BERumnTd0-Born (The Retribution of Spiritual Sickness) www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fWh8eWLv9Y&feature=relatedLinks:Website: www.nevermore.tv/Myspace: www.myspace.com/nevermorefans *this page is unofficial, but it is accurate and has many more samples to listen to.

Paramore vs Nevermore vs MANDY MOORE! Your avatar made me curious as to what would happen if I Googled "Nancy Grace is a c***." 21,100 hits. I HAVE been known to rock. Seen them live, yet? Nah, I don't really make it to a lot of live shows. I do have this New England Metal and Hardcore Festival DVD that they're on...and I might have to watch right now.

Nevermore are amazing! shame that Steve Smyth got sick and had to quit the band, I found that the songs he wrote on "This Godless Endeavour" were some of the best.
