GOD FORBID's DOC COYLE Talks About Playing Guitar For LAMB OF GOD, Touring With METALLICA

September 29, 2009

D-Lux Denim Brand conducted an interview with GOD FORBID's Doc Coyle before he hit the stage with LAMB OF GOD on September 22, 2009 Wellmont Theater in Montclair, New Jersey. Watch the chat below.

Doc Coyle is filling in for LAMB OF GOD's Mark Morton on the Richmond, Virginia metal band's current U.S. tour with METALLICA (as well as LOG's headlining "off" dates),which kicked off on September 14 in Nashville and will conclude on November 15 in New York City.

When asked about GOD FORBID's plans for the future, Coyle said, "We're currently trying to lock down our headlining U.S. tour, which I think is gonna [happen in] November [and maybe going into] December a little bit. So we should have that in the works in the next few weeks. And we'll probably go back to Europe next year for another tour. And we'll probably be looking for a new record label and trying to figure out what the future's really gonna hold. We don't wanna tour too much on a record that's not really supported by the record label. So, I think, [we'll] do one or two more tours, then kind of start thinking about the future."

GOD FORBID's new album, "Earthsblood", sold around 5,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release, according to Nielsen SoundScan, to land at position No. 110 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD debuted at No. 2 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

GOD FORBID's previous album, "IV: Constitution of Treason", entered The Billboard 200 chart at No. 119 in September 2005 after shifting 8,300 units.
