Dreaming Neon Black is quite the interesting album in Nevermore's discography. It's an absolutely amazing album, I personally think it's their best, and yet it's generally regarded less highly than Dead Heart in a Dead World and This Godless Endeavor... which are both amazing albums, but Dreaming Neon Blacl has something that they don't. This album has an aura of mystique, of something hidden behind the music, behind the lyrics. This may perhaps be because it's a concept album. Well, whatever the reason, this is truly a masterpiece.

Not the best album by Nevermore, but still good. Love Deconstruction!

One of my absolute favourite concept albums.

But out of all genre tags, thrash metal?

thrash metal?

Nevermore is pretty thrashy!!

....It's a great album but there are too many slow sections for my taste

Their stile is really hard to define. Nevermore isn't 100% Thrash but they have some thrashy sections.
One of the most reasonable tags should be Progressive Thrash

Very Thrashy yes. I would define their style as Progressive Power Metal. There are some similarities to Iced Earth. But yes it´s really not easy.

In total DNB was later beaten by all 2000th release (especially by DHIADW and TGE) and I even like the debut a bit better. But it´s Nevermore - no bad album in their disco. The title track is a masterpiece!

Faves: Beyond Within, I Am The Dog, Dreaming Neon Black (best on record), Deconstruction and No More Will
