Biography

American power/thrash/groove metal band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1992. Nevermore was formed after [a516458] and [a516456]'s previous band, [a864569], had disbanded. [a516457] went on to join Sanctuary as a touring guitarist just before they folded, and then formed Nevermore with Dane and Sheppard. Nevermore ceased activity in 2011 after Loomis and Van Williams both departed following disputes with Sheppard and Dane. The latter two then returned to the recently reactivated Sanctuary on a full-time basis. Warrel Dane later stated that Nevermore was not definitively finished. This was contradicted in a September 2017 interview with Jeff Loomis, where he confirmed that the band was broken up, but simultaneously acknowledged that a future reunion would be possible since the band members were still on speaking terms with each other. In December 2024, Jeff Loomis and Van Williams teased a return of the band with yet-to-be-unveiled plans for 2025.

LYRICS

Today the warning came in the flood
Architects and fools never cared for poor men's blood
Cursed to repeat the past they are
The river dragon swims upstream
They've built another wall
The three will fall
Save us from the flood
Washed away we drown

The river dragon
Has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves

Those who cannot remember the last
Fall away,far away
The distance meets its task

The three will fall
Save us from the flood
Washed away we drown

The river dragon
Has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves
The river dragon has come
At first light of dawn
The earth has spoken
And in the crush they are gone

The three will fall
Save us from the flood
Washed away we drown
The river dragon
Has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves
In the mass destruction the bringer shows his form
Technology the beast
The seventh crown
