Since their debut release, Live Like We’re Alive, Nevertheless has received critical acclaim from the media and gained fans along the way as they have toured relentlessly for the past year and half.

It is determination that gives NEVERTHELESS an asterisk amidst their contemporaries in indie pop/rock. At first listen they would fit nicely in the vein of such bands as Jimmy Eat World and Cartel, except for one difference: Their songs deal in as much substance as they do in relationship experience. On their label debut Live Like We’re Alive (Flicker Records 2006), the band delivered diversity in emotion as well as depth in empathy. At the heart of the album is an energy created by a dynamic between high and low, verse and chorus. They have received ink in the likes of Billboard, CCM, Blogcritics.com, Decoymusic.com, PunkUnited.com, HM Magazine and many more.
