Here is a short review of Nevermore's self titled album, Nevermore.
I can't give you track listings since it is in my car at this time, but
overall I like the cd. It has some good guitar work IMO and some decent
drumming also, and the bass is defined well.
They are former members of Sanctuary (at least 3 started the band and
there are I think 5 members in it or only 4 now...have to check the cd
again!). Singer kind of reminds me somewhat of Rob Halford at moments
and the singer from Shadow Gallery in others, especially the 3rd track
on the cd, VERY Shadow Gallery-ish IMO! Overall I like this album, and
am not sure if there is a second one by them. Heavy, not really thrashy
as I expected, overall decent in my books, a worthy purchase!
I'll try to give track listing and band member information later on,
i.e., I'll get it from the car this morning!

| 1133.2 | not a bad full release from them | SUBSYS::MSOUCY | MentalmETALMike | Fri Mar 14 1997 08:10 | 14 |
New one has been out for a bit, The Politics of Ecstacy. Thrashy, good
production, one tune (and a blurb in the liner) deals sort of with the
guy who is doing 10 yrs for drugs which he apparently was set up by the
DEA over a 2 yr period while others with more violent crimes do less
time, etc...I remember seeing some of this on the tube awhile back, but
don't remember the shows name. He got bagged, but if he was set up,
then it isn't right to do 10 yrs....
Enough rambling on that topic, the disc is pretty good, if you liked
their first release (self-titled) you would like this one. I've been
wanting to get this and finally have and am glad I did.

| 1133.7 | TPoE isn't too bad of a full release | SUBSYS::MSOUCY | MentalmETALMike | Mon Mar 17 1997 05:26 | 7 |
TPoE is a good thrashy album with some good double-bass drumming. Still
technical thrash though, and the song "Tiannamen Man"(sp) is pretty good!
If you liked the self-titled release you would most likely like this
one also.
