Determination

Determination
(Century Media - 2001)


The New Jersey based quintet offers a melange of death, thrash and metal core, taking the best out of these musical styles to create their own sound. A self-financed MCD Out Of Misery caught the interest of fans across the States and in 2000 their debut Reject The Sickness been released through a small independent label. Now Determination is released through Century Media and gives the quintet the chance to present themselves outside the USA. n the beginning God Forbid got attention because four fifth of the band are black! Live they soon proofed their instrumental skills and the music did the talking, so the New Jersey guys build up a following in the States.
Musically their pounding mixture of American thrash and death metal is the best reputation.
Check out: Determination Pt. 1, Nothing and God's Last Gift.

Determination

Determination
(Century Media - 2001)


A mixture of many different elements are what the American band God Forbid is presenting. On Determination they try to melt elements of death, trash and metalcore together, but they not always succeed on it. They are heavy, straight ahead. If you are into extreme metal, then brutal songs like Broken Promise, Go Your Own Way and God's Last Gift will be what you are longing for. Everybody else, be careful!
