GOD FORBID Guitarist Slams 'BlabberBitches,' 'BlabberGrundles', 'BlabberCocks'

February 6, 2009

GOD FORBID guitarist Dallas Coyle has written the latest entry for his weekly column on MetalSucks, "The Hard R." This week Dallas talks about the impending release of the new GOD FORBID album "Earthsblood", outlines touring plans for 2009, and takes shots at Internet detractors on BLABBERMOUTH.NET. An excerpt follows below.

"I bet a lot of you are wondering why I haven't been doing my blog lately. Well, let me tell you. Our album comes out very soon and I say a LOT of fucked up shit when I'm writing these blogs. I guess it's not as fucked up as what the BlabberBitches say but I guess I can get people all riled up. Maybe they have no lives. Maybe their user name handle is out of date and they just can't change it because their anxiety of being un-"famous" prevents them from doing so. I don't know.

"I slowed down on the blogs for a bunch of reasons. 1) I had a baby. 2) I got a job. 3) I wanted to quiet myself before the album came out so you can pay attention to the music. Of all the shit I say, in the end, none of you would know me if it weren't for GOD FORBID so I think it's respectful to let GF have the spotlight while the record is set to be released.

"Now that the record is about to come out there's been some press, you've heard some songs and you've seen the artwork. Most of you are probably familiar with the fact that we're touring with ILL NINO in Europe in March, LAMB OF GOD in the States in April, doing the festivals in Europe in June and doing [Rockstar Energy] Mayhem in July and August. That is a lot of touring. And to the BlabberGrundles who said we're washed up: Yeah, we also got fabric softener with our sick tours... Fuck off.

"How did all this happen? To tell you the truth, I have no fucking clue. I think it might be the fact that the record is blowing people's minds. Or we're a career band and we've always had momentum that is mounting. Or maybe we have friends in very high places. It's gotta be one or all of those things. I'm not too sure but I'll tell you this: I am fucking relieved, I am fucking happy and I am fucking content."

A new GOD FORBID song entitled "Walk Alone" is available for streaming using the widget below. According to the band, this "is an infectious rock/thrash tune, and has some fun guitar solo action going on as well."

"Walk Alone" comes off the New Jersey metal titans' new album, "Earthsblood", which is scheduled for release on February 24 in the U.S. and February 16 in Europe via Century Media Records.
