"Bay area (San Jose) cerebral nightmares have spawned a square-peg quartet that defies music industry pigeon holes. In a pop market where genre specific fans clearly seek conformity, deviants like The Winter Chapter become the welcome oasis to pop-culture weary music enthusiasts. You are as likely to find Gothic bands opening for The Winter Chapter as you would Industrial bands. Beyond these evolving genres, The Winter Chapter continues to explore experimental electronic and darkwave styles and incorporates such creativity into recordings and live performances. Ranging from deep melancholic melodies to intense haunting tribal excursions into new electronic frontiers (Blinded) to meandering forays through gothic rock and darker wave roots of the 80s. Felix exhumes from hidden spiritual mysteries a strong and palatable voice of reasoning, masterfully harmonizing the talents of his fellow performers. Experimental vocals and digitized drum effects descend upon writhing audiences with cold, penetrating aural symmetry. Founder Steve Jennings works magic on a Fretless Bass, Stacy Latta & Jeff Croall contrast and harmonize on dancing keyboards and Felix fronts The Winter Chapter via potent and mature, haunting vocals. In anticipation of their upcoming Southern U.S. tour, four voices extend to you through static electrons the following words of invitation and intrigue." - Jett Black

Story behind the song
Something of a vampiric deflowering. A non-apologetic confession of corruption, stolen innocence and moral destruction. I was always fascinated with how the vampire is taking something innocent and slowly, morally destroying it before feeding on it and physically destroying it. The song is written as a vampire's warning to it's prey ("the way you fell for me") that after I'm through with you...after I've destroyed your innocence, I will devour you and you will never know that feeling again...You can never fall so completely like that again ("Nevermore").
Lyrics
The light The way it shines on you like heaven I knew I'd have to break you slowly The way you tremble at my mention I knew I'd have to take my time Your eyes The shine of innocence within them I knew it wouldn't last forever The way you tremble at my mention I knew I'd have my way this time The way you fell for me Nevermore - Nevermore This time The way you fell for me Nevermore - Nevermore
