There are songs that never really leave you. And for NEVERMORE fans, the chance to hear them live again has been a long time coming.
Throughout 2026, that wait finally came to an end. From packed festival grounds to their recent shows alongside JUDAS PRIEST, NEVERMORE’s return to European stages has been met with an extraordinary response. Crowds singing every word, voices joining together on songs that many thought they might never experience live again, and a band visibly feeding off that energy night after night.
What began with anticipation has quickly turned into something much bigger. NEVERMORE are firing on all cylinders and the connection between band and audience has made their return as emotional as it has been intense.
Now, that momentum carries into 2027. NEVERMORE will return to the road next spring for the “Liminal Spaces European Tour 2027,” a 21-date headline run beginning in Berlin on April 29 and taking the band across Europe before culminating with two shows in Turkey at the end of May — a fitting return to the country where this new chapter of NEVERMORE first took to the stage. Joining NEVERMORE as special guests across the European dates will be RIVERS OF NIHIL and URNE, bringing together three distinct forces for one formidable touring package.
Before hitting the road again, NEVERMORE will continue work on their highly anticipated new album. Fans on the “Liminal Spaces Tour” may just experience songs from this new chapter…
About NEVERMORE:
NEVERMORE enters 2026 with purpose, fire, and a clear sense of who they are. Forged in the aftermath of Sanctuary, the band carved out a sound defined by precision musicianship, fearless songwriting, and emotional intensity. From their self-titled debut in 1995 through landmark releases such as Dead Heart in a Dead World and This Godless Endeavor, NEVERMORE built a global following and a reputation as one of modern metal’s most distinctive voices.
Now that legacy moves forward under the leadership of guitarist Jeff Loomis and drummer Van Williams, joined by guitarist Jack Cattoi, bassist Semir Özerkan , and vocalist Berzan Önen. After years apart, the spark that first ignited the band has returned with renewed focus. For Van, the timing feels natural. “It’s been brewing for quite a while and has just started to manifest itself into the now. So what better time is there to kick things off than now?”
New music is already taking shape. Van smiles at the early results. “If the new music had to be described by one word, that would have to be delicious. Because it’s so good it’s gonna leave you hungry for more.” The writing process is unfolding alongside preparations for the stage, with the band focused equally on honoring the catalog and building what comes next.
The addition of Berzan signaled a powerful evolution. Jeff remembers the first time he saw Berzan’s audition video. “He really stood out strong in so many ways upon a first listen. I could really feel the emotion and passion when I heard him sing for the first time. He wasn’t just going through the motions.” The connection was immediate. “I could tell right away that he was a fan of Warrel’s singing just by the way he delivered and said certain words. I was really blown away at first watch.”
The history of NEVERMORE includes an extraordinary lineage of musicians who shaped its evolution. Guitarists Pat O’Brien, Tim Calvert, Steve Smyth, and Chris Broderick each left a distinct imprint on the band’s catalog and live presence. Bassist Jim Sheppard played a central role in shaping the band’s identity during its defining years.
Following the band’s disbandment, Jeff Loomis released the acclaimed solo albums Zero Order Phase and Plains of Oblivion, co founded CONQUERING DYSTOPIA, and spent nearly a decade as a member of ARCH ENEMY, contributing to releases including Will to Power and Deceivers. Van Williams remained active through projects such as ASHES OF ARES and GHOST SHIP OCTAVIUS. Warrel Dane continued creating until his passing in 2017, leaving behind a body of work that continues to inspire musicians and fans worldwide.
As NEVERMORE steps into 2026, the mission is grounded in honesty and intensity. Jeff captures the heart of it. “Van and I are super passionate about the band. What we deliver and bring back to the audience is us wanting to hear those old tracks again just as much as the fans. We obviously want our old fans there every step of the way, but also look forward to meeting a new generation of fans as well.”
Older. Wiser. Still loud.
