Nemesea is a female fronted gothic/rock band founded by vocalist Manda and guitar player H.J. in September 2002 at the conservatory in Groningen, Holland. Subsequent recruits thereafter would be second guitarist Martijn, bassplayer Sonny, and Steven on drums. After recording a 3 song demo Nemesea debuted live as support act to After Forever.

In 2006 the band signed up at sellaband.com. Within a three months the band gathered many believers, and was the first band ever to raise the recording budget of $50.000. This made it possible for the band to record a second album, with the help of Tony Platt (a.o. AC/DC & Bob Marley) and Ronald Prent (a.o. Rammstein), and to take the music into a new direction. The album ‘In Control’ was released in June 2007
