About

Adema (IPA: ) is an American rock band from Bakersfield, California. The band formed in 2000 with members vocalist Mark Chavez, guitarist Tim Fluckey, guitarist Mike Ransom, bassist Dave DeRoo, and drummer Kris Kohls. After their first two albums, Adema, and Unstable, the band was plagued with years of conflict and lineup changes. Ransom left the band in 2003 followed by Chavez later in 2004 due to conflicts between themselves and other members of the band. Luke Caraccioli replaced Chavez in early 2005 for one album, Planets, but then left a few months later in late 2005. Vocalist Bobby Reeves and guitarist Ed Faris, both from the band Level, were recruited to join as well, but only released one album, Kill the Headlights in 2007, before entering a hiatus. The band's original lineup reformed in late 2009 and toured, but both Ransom and Chavez left again before any new music would be recorded. Fluckey took over lead vocals from 2011 to 2017. The lineup released an EP, Topple the Giants. In 2013 Ransom returned once again; Chavez rejoined the band again in March 2017, only to leave again in 2019. He was replaced by Ryan Shuck. The band continued performing with Shuck, releasing two singles and a three song EP until February 2024 when Shuck departed from the band.

In 2013, the band was featured in an NME article titled "28 Nu-Metal Era Bands You Probably Forgot All About".

Adema est un groupe américain de nu metal, originaire de Bakersfield, en Californie. Le groupe est formé en 2000 par le chanteur Mark Chavez, le chanteur et guitariste Tim Fluckey, le guitariste Mike Ransom, le bassiste Dave DeRoo et le batteur Kris Kohls. Après leurs deux premiers albums, Adema et Unstable, le groupe fait face à des divergences internes et des changements de formation. Ransom quitte le groupe en 2003 à cause de conflits avec Chavez ; puis Chavez en 2004 à cause de conflits avec le reste du groupe.

Luke Caraccioli remplace Chavez au début de 2005 sur un album, Planets, mais quitte le groupe quelques mois plus tard, en 2005. Le chanteur Bobby Reeves et le guitariste Ed Farris, membres du groupe Level, sont recrutés pour jouer sur l'album Kill the Headlights en 2007, avant que le groupe ne se mette en pause. Ils reprennent en 2009 et sortent en 2013 l'EP 'Topple The Giants'.

Après 10 autres années de silence discographique, le groupe sort un nouvel EP 'The Cerberus' en 2023 avec un nouveau chanteur Ryan Shuck (Orgy, Julien-K, Dead By Sunrise) suivi du départ de Shuck en 2024.

En 2025, le groupe annonce préparer un nouvel album discographique, leur premier depuis 18 ans.
