A Dutch band that's carved out a steady presence in the symphonic metal scene since 1999.
For a good sense of their range, try 'Caught In The Middle' and the cover 'Selling Jesus.' They frame the band's mix of weight and melody pretty well.
Nemesea's sound has always mixed heavy metal with symphonic elements, heard on tracks like 'Lost Inside' and 'Twilight.' Their 2008 album 'In Control' gave them a fan favorite with the title track, and songs like 'Caught In The Middle' show their blend of guitar-driven metal and melodic vocals. They've built a following without much mainstream attention, which says something about the niche they've held down.
Nemesea formed in 1999 with vocalist Manda Ophuis, guitarist Henry Den Herder, and drummer Sander Zoer. Their first album, 'Mana,' came out in 2004, and they've put out six studio albums since, with shifts in lineup including guitarist Otto Schimmelpenninck van der Oye and drummer Eelco van der Berg.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
