Neaera is a German metal band that has made a significant impact within the heavy music scene through their incendiary blend of melodic death metal and metalcore. Formed in Münster in 2003, the band initially began as a side project but quickly grew into a full-fledged musical endeavor due to the members' chemistry and shared vision. The band comprises Benjamin Hilleke (vocals), Stefan Keller (guitar), Tobias Buck (guitar), Benjamin Donath (bass), and Sebastian Heldt (drums). They established their presence with their debut album "The Rising Tide Of Oblivion" in 2005, setting the stage for a career marked by intense, thought-provoking music and relentless energy.

Over the years, Neaera has built a discography that showcases their evolution while maintaining the brutal intensity and melodic sensibilities that initially won them fans. Albums such as "Armamentarium" (2007), "Omnicide – Creation Unleashed" (2009), and "Forging the Eclipse" (2010) saw the band refining their sound and engaging with themes of personal struggle, societal issues, and resistance. Following "Ours Is the Storm" in 2013, the band announced a hiatus but returned with a powerful self-titled album in 2020, proving that their musical flame burns as fiercely as ever and continually establishes their presence as mainstays in the heavy music genre. With a sonic palette that ranges from devastating breakdowns to soaring melodic passages, Neaera has solidified their reputation as a band that both pulverizes and captivates.
