Biography
After Forever was a Dutch symphonic metal band with strong progressive metal influences. Originally formed as a death metal band in 1995 by Mark Jansen and Sander Gommans under the name Apocalypse, they later shifted their sound towards symphonic metal with the introduction of Floor Jansen to the band. The band's signature sound relied heavily on the combination of Floor Jansen's soprano vocals and death growls, often provided by Mark Jansen and Sander Gommans. After Forever also commonly incorporated symphonic elements into their studio albums, being known for their contributions to the symphonic metal genre alongside Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Epica. In February 2009, it was announced that After Forever had disbanded. Singer Floor Jansen and keyboardist Joost van den Broek collaborated again in ReVamp and Star One, before Jansen eventually joined Nightwish as lead singer in 2013. Former rhythm guitarist Mark Jansen founded Epica soon after his departure from After Forever in 2002, and in 2010 founded MaYaN, which included former After Forever members Sander Gommans and Jack Driessen. Floor Jansen has appeared as a session or live vocalist for Epica and MaYaN.
