TODAY
FOREVER
THE NEW PATHETIC
(2006 - Strike First Records)
With
a hard to find variety of influences „The
new Pathetic“ delivers 13 heartfelt and catchy
songs that don't take prisoners. Even when this
four piece combines elements of Old School, New
School, Emo and Metal, Today Forever never lose
their own musical identity.
Top notch production, recorded at
Kohlekeller Studio (Under Siege, Six Reasons to
kill, Devil ate my
Son).
Featuring guestvocals by Kid D (Ryker`s)
Erich Barto (Alove for Enemies) and Schumitz (HXC
Ink
/ Friendly Fire). This Debut Release is definetly
a breeze of fresh air in times of Metalcore overload. TODAY
FOREVER delivers a sound that cannot be compared
to many, taking elements from
different eras of hard music and making it their
own is something TODAY FOREVER has accomplished,
and they have done so well. They dont copy anything,
they dont revive spectres of the past, they dont
long for the good old days. They are totally and
utterly themselves. They breathe an unmistakable
passion into their songs, by transfiguring melody
with rhythm, and combining their lyrics with a
distinctive and credible musical heaviness.
Some
say TODAY FOREVER sound like 90s New School,
like Snapcase, Despair, or Unbroken. However,
this was only a precursor of their new sound.
Following
to their solid debut MCD entitled "BROKEN
HEART SERENITY", with the full length release
of "THE NEW PATHETIC" TODAY FOREVER has
broken new ground. Those that have seen them live
on stage will not forget them easily: five gentlemen
with an inspiring enthusiasm for music. Proud,
but not detached, convincing but not arrogant,
dedicated to the scene. TODAY FOREVER have created a sensation on stages
all over Northern Europe and the UK, and played
together with uncounted bands, such as Comeback
Kid, Figure Four, Give Up the Ghost, Sinai Beach,
Stretch Armstrong, Zao, Symphony in Peril, A Love
for Enemies, Walls of Jericho, Silverstein and
Modern Life is War just to name a few.
