The last Nevermore news we posted was that there could be a Nevermore record within the next two years but nothing is set in stone, even though we got word that the band was officially done. Unfortunately that's pretty ambiguous news left more up to speculation than actual lines drawn, so we figured we'd just wait and see.
Now, vocalist Warrel Dane said in an interview that the band would never reunite without guitarist Jeff Loomis.
"You never know. Don't always take everything I say in interviews as the absolute truth. I mean, I would love to do another Nevermore record, but I wouldn't do it without Jeff. So… We'll see, you know. He's in Arch Enemy now. [ex-Arch Enemy guitarist] Nick's in Sanctuary. And it's kind of weird, and kind of incestuous and bizarre at the same time."
So how is that good a thing? Well, Warrel continues-
Asked if there is chance Sanctuary and Arch Enemy will one day tour together, Warrel said: "Oh, Jeez… Well, hey, I would be totally open to that. You may have just planted a seed, my friend."
Sanctuary has Dane and former Nevermore bassist Jim Sheppard and then Arch Enemy has Loomis. The only person that wouldn't be on that tour and in contact with each other is drummer Van Williams, and last I checked phones were a thing. The good thing about this is that it doesn't sound like anyone from Nevermore hates each other… so maybe?
