Last week God Forbid turned to their fans to help them come up with a title for their much anticipated new DVD and the fans rose to the occasion with a barrage of submissions.
Doc Coyle (guitars, vocals) checks in to announce the winning submission: “After a good deal of deliberation, the boys in GOD FORBID, with a little help from our A+R guy and manager, have picked a winner for the contest to name our upcoming DVD. And the winner is (drum roll please) David Cazares from Chino, CA with the title Beneath The Scars of Glory and Progression. Congratulations go out to David. He made our jobs a lot easier. Maybe we'll have our fans name everything from now on. I would like also like to announce our 2nd and 3rd place contestants: Alex Damske from Naperville, IL with Declaration of Treachery and finally Heol Cennen from Llandeilo, UK with Constitution of Touring. It was a close decision and I did not expect to get some many great responses.
“
I would personally like to thank everyone who participated. We definitely have some creative fans. Our decision came down to choosing something that was unique and dynamic, but also captured, in a statement, what this DVD really says about GOD FORBID. The concert and documentary featured on the DVD are positives forces in our band's movement from turbulence to continuous kinetic growth. It deserved a title that illustrated that with all the bad things that have happened to us, even more good things happened, and we look forward to an even brighter future. Thanks again to David Cazares, all who participated in the contest, and everyone who worked on the DVD.”
God Forbid will enter the studio early next month with longtime producer Eric Rachel (Atreyu, In This Moment) at Trax East in NJ to record their highly anticipated new album. Be sure to stay tuned to
