After Forever is the title of a number of bands and projects.

#1 After Forever (Netherlands)
Dutch metal band that was previously named Apocalypse when they were first formed in 1995. They can be described as a symphonic metal band with influences from classical music, doom metal, gothic metal, power metal and progressive metal. After Forever uses mixed vocal styles, consisting of death grunts (Sander Gommans) and soprano vocals (Floor Jansen).

The band consists of Floor Jansen (vocals), Sander Gommans (guitar, gutural voices), Bas Maas (guitars), Luuk van Gerven (bass), Joost van den Broek (keyboards) and Andre Borgman (drums).

In 2002 Mark Jansen quit After Forever and subsequently assembled the band Epica.

In 2006 After Forever made their departure from Transmission records after spending 10 years with them. The album “Mea Culpa” has been made without the aproval of the band and therefore isn’t supported by After forever. “Mea Culpa” contains a collection of After Forever singles, remixes and favourites separated in two chapters with guest appearances with celebrities such as Sharon Den Adel (Within Temptation), Damian Wilson (Ayreon) and Marco Hietala (Nightwish/Tarot)

In April 2007 they released their fifth studio album with the title “After Forever”.

On Sunday 10th June they opened the Dimebag Darrel Stage at the 2007 Download Festival.

I hate the spoken interludes on Invisible Circles. . . it just ruins the album for me. . . it's so. . . corny >.> I still think they are great, but those interludes just make my ears bleed.

Floor Jansen has the most amazing female voice I've ever heard. her voice is so versatile, she can turn from operatic to "normal" voice in a second

Huh, did anyone notice that the opening sound from De-Energized is the same sound the smoke monster in Lost makes? O_O

Not only does Floor have a great voice, she's indeed a terrific live performer and more friendly and down to earth than any female singer I've met.
