Extreminal recently caught up with Forrest to discuss the band's forthcoming album and his career with Voivod. An excerpt is available below.
Q: The last album of E-Force came out in 2008 and we have no news on the new one...
Forrest: "Well, we were supposed to record a new record last summer. It's a concept record, it's called The Curse Of The Cunt, which is about what men and some women will do and have done to get a piece of the action, so to speak. We're touring right now because of the problems with the label. And the manager went missing, got murdered, suicide, he's in Las Vegas or something, I don't know. So we have to wait again 'til mid this summer. It's basically a year delay so we were like: 'What are we going to do? Let's play!' We are going to continue the writing anyway. We've got about eight songs completed. And we'll do more shows in the Summer and in September. It's pretty hard for a lot of bands these days because of the money and the downloading, nobody buys CDs anymore. I feel lucky that I can continue to do E-Force records with the record label paying to do it and releasing it. I don't expect to make money, it's more like a professional hobby that I'm doing at someone else's expense."
