A strongly negative review of Nemesea's 2005 debut Mana criticizing production, songwriting and imitation of peers while praising vocalist Manda Ophuis as the album's only clear strength. The review compares the album unfavourably to After Forever and other symphonic/gothic metal acts. Overall the reviewer declares the record a disappointment.
