Mythologies have a way of being changed through the course of history. The heart remains the same, but details differ, perspectives alter and highlights disappear to be replaced by others.
Nemea as a band always drew a lot of inspiration from different mythologies, so it’s no surprise that things might change since the initial start. We started in 2007, but our line up today is very different from what it was. We were a four piece back then and after a few shows our drummer and bassplayer didn’t felt like continuing. Nemea went comatose until the beginning of 2008, then ex- and current members from bands like Take It Down and The Brave Do Not Fear The Grave joined. It felt like a blood transfusion, that really revitalized this band. At the same time, the remaining original Nemea members had spread out to bands such as Low Society, Disnight and Dedicted. The five of us started rehearsing and crafting new songs.
Since December 2008 we felt that Nemea had gained the experience, enthusiasm and members to bring what we always wanted to bring.
