In the late 1980s Nemeth was a member of many local bands in the heavy metal scene of Cleveland. His first official release came in 1989 when Sacred Heart released their debut EP titled The Vision. In 1991 together with Ken Dugan, Jimm Motyka, Kris Dugan and Dan Mattingly he formed Amon-Ra, a year after the band was formed came the release of their debut album In the Company of the Gods.
