Nevermore is an American heavy metal band from Seattle, Washington, formed in 1992. The band was formed after three of its members—vocalist Warrel Dane, bassist Jim Sheppard and guitarist Jeff Loomis—ended their previous band Sanctuary, and had several drummers before hiring Van Williams in 1994.
Nevermore has experienced numerous lineup changes, and as of 2024, Loomis is the only remaining original member. The band became a five-piece in 1996, when they added Pat O'Brien as their second guitarist. After recording their second album The Politics of Ecstasy with O'Brien, the band replaced him with Tim Calvert, who played on the follow-up album Dreaming Neon Black (1999) and left a year after its release. With their next two albums Dead Heart in a Dead World (2000) and Enemies of Reality (2003), Nevermore reverted to a four-piece. Steve Smyth was added as the second guitarist in 2004 and performed on their sixth studio album This Godless Endeavor (2005). Following his departure in 2006, the band would continue as a quartet.
