GOD FORBID LAUNCH STUDIO DIARY

In case Dalls Coyle’s “The Hard R” column here at MetalSucks doesn’t give you the weekly fix of God Forbid-related blogging that you crave, the band has launched a studio diary to keep you up-to-date on the progress of their new album, which should be out later this year. Here’s an excerpt from the initial entry, by Dallas’ brother/co-guitarist Doc Coyle:

“Later that day, I received an email that our DVD test copy was complete, so I decided to leave to studio to take a trip to Brooklyn to [director] Dave Brodsky’s place to pick up a few copies for the band to check out and critique. I left everyone else to work on the drum tones. This is unlike me. Usually I am involved in every aspect of the recording, and my control freak tendencies can get the best of me. I’ve been trying to give everyone more freedom, and not try to sway every note. It can be hard for me sometimes, but trusting your team is important. I came back the next day, and the drums sounded great. I wasn’t totally sold on the snare drum sound, but that always changes with sampling.”
