Is there anyone around here who likes this band? IMO is the most consistent heavy metal band of the past decade. I can't find any weak album of them. They play really technical metal music (NO, I DON'T WANT THEM TO BE IN THE PROGARCHIVES ). In fact IMO they are getting better and better... I have also watched them twice on stage and were awesome... |

I like 'em. (though they're not prog at all). 'Dead Heart In A Dead World' is my most favorite METAL album of the last 10 years... Yet have to see 'em on stage.

I agree they are not prog (they don't need to ) but they play excellent technical metal IMO. As for DHIADW, the album is a masterpiece, maybe their most complete work to date. |

When Dead Heart came out was when I got into them. To this day, I think it's an incredible album - one of my favorites of all time, probably. After Dead Heart, I bought Dreaming Neon Black, which everyone claimed was their best. I wasn't really feeling it, at first. It took me a long time to get into that album, but now I do think it's killer. I recently picked up the In Memory EP and that's great, as well. Someday I may pick up more of their material, but right now they're not a priority. So many bands, so little time! Edited by IcedSabbath |

Nevermore is pretty darn good. But I really don't want to categorize them though, because they are sooooo unique! |

Saw Nevermore when they played as support for Opeth in Toronto. Must say Jeff Loomis is an awesome guitarist!

Although I don't play them a lot, they are very very good. I like all their albums.

I love Nevermore. I saw them in Detroit along with Fireball Ministry and Opeth and they kicked my ass. I have all of their sudio albums and although I love DHIADW completely (especially The River Dragon Has Come) but I think This Godless Endeavor is a little more technical overall. Not really i mportant to me, though as I can listen to all of their albums all the way through.

I liked them very much around the time of their "Dreaming Neon Black" album. After that I lost interest. |

The following albums are all excellent. Enemies of Reality had a weaker sound, but it was recently re-mastered by Andy Sneap who also mastered the other two albums. The result is an absolutely amazing, nearly perfect mix. |

Listen to Dead Heart in a Dead World or This Godless Endeavor, he mixed those two. |
