Nevea Tears is a screamo/post-hardcore band from Southern California known for their extensive use of electronics in their songs. They have toured with bands such as Memphis May Fire and Cry of the Afflicted.
History
Nevea Tears formed in 2002 with Greg Gillis and Brent Doan on guitars, Jeff Metajan on keyboards/electronics, Amber Barnard on drums, Dom Gomez on bass and John Morello on vocals. They recorded a demo and sent it to many labels. They were signed by Eulogy Recordings and released their first full length Do I Have to Tell You I Love You? the next year. The band grew to tour with many popular bands of the current hardcore scene for the next three years. Brent and Amber left, leading Jeff to move to guitar and Stephen Crosmer to come in on drums. They released Run with the Hunted in 2007, and imminently after John, Dom and Stephen quit the band. In order to go on tour to support their recent release Run with the Hunted, the band recruited Aaron Wymore on bass, Matt Marquez on drums, and Alex Reyes on vocals. They went on playing shows for a few months, but lacking loyal members they eventually stopped playing and have been on hiatus since.
