DOC COYLE On Possible New GOD FORBID: "If We're Going To Write, We Have To Figure Some Things Out"

God Forbid has been playing reunion shows ever since 2022, and with those shows comes the age-old question of if there will be new material coming. God Forbid hasn't released any new material since Equilibrium in 2012, though according to guitarist and songwriter Doc Coyle in an interview with Lambgoat, it could happen! Granted it's not very likely, but still – it's a possibility.

"There are some ideas about performing in 2025 but nothing is locked in. We get offers all the time, but it's not easy with everyone's family obligations and work schedules," said Coyle. "As far as new music, I have a lot of material I've been sitting on for a while that I just need to lay down and start sharing with the guys.

"We haven't yet figured out the writing process with everyone being spread out all over the country. We used to write in a very old-school way – 5 guys in a room working things out. As time went on, we got more modern with demos written on computers, but we always played the music together as a band and refined it as a unit. So if we're going to write, we have to figure some things out. No promises."

In the meantime, God Forbid recently announced a throwback cassette tape EP that collects B-sides and cover songs recorded during their time with Century Media Records. The EP is called The Lost Noize and will only be available as a limited set of 150 cassettes for sale at God Forbid's upcoming shows in California this month. The Lost Noize runs as follows:

1. "We Are No More"
2. "Allegiance"
3. "Static Signal"
4. "Master Killer" (Merauder cover)
5. "Mind Eraser" (2001 Zeuss Version)
6. "Out Ta Get Me" (Guns N' Roses cover)
7. "Stockholm Syndrome" (Muse cover)
