GOD FORBID Invites Fans To Name Band's DVD

January 21, 2008

New Jersey metal titans GOD FORBID wrapped up an extremely successfully 2007 as part of the Stillborn Fest alongside HATEBREED and AGNOSTIC FRONT, among others, but will now concentrate solely on completing their much anticipated new full-length release. The group also recently completed work on its first DVD, which is tentatively slated for a spring release. However, the DVD remains without a title, so GOD FORBID decided to put this task into the hands of their fans.

Commented guitarist/vocalist Doc Coyle: "GOD FORBID has been kicking for 10 years strong, and we are consistently blown away by how loyal our fans have been through our musical evolution. It's definitely time to give something back. The GF camp have been having some trouble coming up with a title for our upcoming DVD, so Dallas (guitars, vocals) thought it might a good idea to involve our faithful fans in our creative process by letting you name the DVD. Yes, YOU motherfucker! Put on your thinking caps and become part of GOD FORBID history.

“This contest will only be running for a week, and the grand prize winner will get their name listed in the DVD’s credits, receive an autographed copy of the DVD, an ESP/Cocaine Energy drink guitar and a case of cocaine energy drinks. The two runner ups will also receive a bunch of other awesome stuff. We're going to pick the top three and have everyone vote on the best title from there. We will announce the winner on January 28. Good luck and let the games begin!"

Please send all DVD title submissions to [email protected] and be sure to include your full name, age and mailing address. The contest runs through 12 p.m. (noon) on Friday, January 25.

Coyle further comments: "In regards to the new album, we are a lot further along in the writing process. We have a few songs completed, and probably a dozen more in the works. So far the material is extremely varied. I can also say that Dallas and I have started using seven-string guitars, so tonally there will be more variety.

"We will be heading into the studio at the beginning of March with our longtime producer and friend, Eric Rachel (ATREYU, IN THIS MOMENT) at Trax East. So the album we probably come out mid to late summer. Let's keep our fingers crossed on that front. We will also begin videotaping rehearsals and recording, and releasing some YouTube updates as the process continues."
