GOD FORBID Offers Update On New Album, DVD

October 23, 2007

New Jersey metal titans GOD FORBID have issued the following update:

"We just got back home from Europe last Wednesday. I've had a few days to sleep, and now I can finally give everyone a little update pertaining to all things GOD FORBID.

"First off, the DEVILDRIVER European tour was incredible. All of the shows were packed whether we were playing a small place or a big place. For the first time, we felt like we were starting to make a real impact in mainland Europe outside of the UK.

"I definitely have to thank the DEVILDRIVER guys for bringing us out there. It may be the best or at least most fun we've had on a European tour. I think I actually had too much fun, and certainly drank too much. I think I need a break from fun and drinking for a while. We'll see how long that lasts. I also have to give props to the opening bands, THE SORROW, who opened the mainland part of the tour, and MALEFICE and SOLITUDE who opened the UK dates. They are all kick ass and show lots of promise for the future. Highlights for me were Amsterdam, Munich, Belgium, Zurich, Cologne with Killswitch, Portsmouth, Manchester and London.

"In regards to the next GOD FORBID CD, this week we will resume the writing process for the new GOD FORBID album, and everyone is really jazzed to write. I think a good tour can be inspiration.

"The upcoming DVD is coming along very smoothly. Dave Brodsky just sent us rough cut edits of two songs from the concert, and I have to say it looks fucking incredible. Not to talk shit, but from what I've seen of some recent metal DVDs, our DVD is going to blow alot of the competition out of the water. So save your pennies, because that shit is gonna be hot! We also have some shows in the area with our friends UNEARTH at the end of the year. Those should be some fun shows. We may adding some more shows around X-mas, so keep your ears open."

GOD FORBID recently posted a four-minute "behind-the-scenes" report from the band's European tour with DEVILDRIVER. Watch it below.

As previously reported, GOD FORBID will support UNEARTH at two East Coast dates in December. The band has also scheduled a headlining show in West Springfield, Virginia. The details are as follows:

Dec. 05 - Jaxx – West Springfield, VA
Dec. 07 - Mainstage - Pompton Lakes, NJ (w/ UNEARTH)
Dec. 08 - The Living Room - Providence, RI (w/ UNEARTH)
