The Netherlands has given the world plenty of solid-to-great symphonic metal. New listeners investigating the genre will never run out of recommendations by the old-timers. The latter may rightfully say that After Forever were excellent, Epica are as majestic as their name suggests, Delain have some wonderful albums, and Within Temptation are also a band. With all due respect to those artists, my recommendation is to start with the best symphonic metal album from The Netherlands in recent memory. That album is Neverus’ debut Burdens Of The Earth.

Great album, has feeling of the 90's neoclassic bands + more modern melodeath...

This is quite an impressive and enjoyable debut album, it has a great flow with pretty cool melodies, catchy choruses, decent songwriting, and a solid production too. The last track stands out most though.

From what I've read in comments and reviews and seen in ratings, most users on Metal Storm love melodic and symphonic stuff. It's surprising to me that this isn't rated higher, in light of that impression. There's practically nothing to complain about with this album and band. And literally every element deserves a lot of praise. I'd say this album is totally underrated. The last album with major symphonic elements that I enjoyed this much was Wilderun's Veil Of Imagination. This album is truly excellent. For a debut, it's insanely good.

Written by Metren on 14.06.2023 at 15:30 I see what you mean, something can have all the right elements in place, and still just not click for some reason. Clearly this one has clicked with you though, so I'll definitely give it a relisten in the coming days.
