Mixerr Album Reviews #713

This is Michael Mixerr. Tonight I will review the Nevermore EP by the San Fransisco band Nevermore. This Nevermore EP was released on cassette only Black Sun Records from Oakland, California in 1992. This EP was an underground demo pressed up in a limited amount of quantities.

No this is not the same thrash metal/grindcore rock band of the same name from Seattle, Washington. This Nevermore is an entirely different band just to clarify things. Nevermore is from San Fransisco, California that got started as a band in 1990. The band members are Hellen, Rip Reed, Heidi Vincent, and Chris Yaryan. Hellen does the vocals, Rip Reed plays the guitars, Heidi Vincent performs bass, and Chris Yaryan performs percussion. Nevermore is heavy metal meets underground rock in a darker mood.

Wave is a smooth melody rock song that is quite mellow than one would expect from a hard rock looking EP. The person singing angelic harmonious vocals is none other than Hellen. Although her vocals have that heavy metal feel meets underground glam rock.

The auto-wah effect on Stick Figure is super stellar for debut effort on EP. The person singing angelic harmonious vocals is none other than Hellen. Hellen sings her heart away for all three tracks on this EP.

The melody gets harder on Beauty & The Beast. The guitar is sounding more glam rock meets metal.

Think of Nevermore as of heavy metal meets underground rock in a darker mood when you listen to their music.
I rate this EP, Nevermore, 4/5****!
