Co-founder and original bassist <strong>Jim Sheppard<\/strong> publicly criticized the decision, calling it &#8220;completely disrespectful&#8221; and saying no one had contacted him before moving ahead. He later softened his stance, adding: &#8220;With that said, I wish them the best.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pushback, <strong>Loomis<\/strong> says the new line-up &#8220;honors our legacy while forging a new path forward&#8221; and promises the band will be &#8220;bigger and better than it ever was.&#8221; Wacken 2026 is set to be the first major performance of the reactivated Nevermore, though earlier shows haven&#8217;t been ruled out.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"zox-post-body left zoxrel zox100\">\n\t\t<strong style=\"display: block;margin: 0 auto;max-width: 660px;font-size: 1.625rem;\">Want More Metal?
