| Monday, October 5, 2009 - New Forbidden song online | News from Forbidden:
"Hello all,
It's time for another quick update. It's been just over a month since we released our new song, 'Adapt Or Die', on our MySpace page. The reaction was far beyond what we expected at the time. Honestly, we were kind of shocked to hear so much positive feedback. Of course we realize that just putting a song out after all of these years was going to get something going, but not that much. Wow! Thanks to the thousands of people that listened to the song and gave us your opinion. It's only motivated us even more. I guess the spirit of Bay Area Thrash is alive and well after all.
Since then we've been writing a lot of new stuff on cruise control. It's getting better and we're having a lot of fun creating Forbidden's new music. It feels natural once again. Sometimes these things take a little while to get rolling in the right direction. I mean, it had been 13 years since we'd written a Forbidden song! I think our fans will really like what we're coming up with, it's defiantly pushing us. Russ, Mark, Steve, Matt and myself having a great fucking time!
A lot of folks have been asking when the record is coming out. Well, first we must settle on a home for the band. That's correct, we have yet to sign or commit to any label. We are getting some offers, but we must be 100% satisfied that we're going to the label that fully believes and is committed to rebuilding Forbidden into a formidable force in today's market. There are still some very good labels out there, even in the climate of industry we now live in. It's just...different. But it is nice to be sought after once again. What I can tell you is that we're aiming to be ready to cut the new record by the beginning of the new year. Ultimately, we want it out by the beginning of the upcoming summer. Sometime before the festival and touring season begins. That's the plan we're aiming for!
So, that brings me to the next piece of news. We're releasing another new song, 'Hopenosis', today at 12:00 midnight. By the time people in America wake up the folks in Europe and the rest of the world will have had a chance to hear it. For the few people that we have let hear both songs, it seems they gravitate towards 'Hopenosis' after a couple of listens. I guess you could say it's more dynamic and really shows Russ's voice off. I also think that Hopenosis strikes a nerve lyrically. It's not a veiled song by any stretch. People are snapping out of their own hope-nosis more then ever these days. We'd sure as hell better.
Enjoy the song!"
