Metal Injection had the privilege of attending the New England Metal And Hardcore Festival and got a bunch of interviews. One of those interviews was with God Forbid’s Doc Coyle, obvious brother of departed member Dallas Coyle.
Dallas has been quite adamant about keeping details of the split to himself. Doc also keeps the details to a minimum but gives a little in this interview with Rob from Metal Injection.
 

The rumors that God Forbid Guitarist, Dallas Coyle had left the band earlier this week have proved to be true and not just some elaborate April Fools prank as most people hoped for. The outspoken guitar player spoke exclusively with Metalsucks.net whom he has had a close relationship with for some time now.
Dallas would like the metal community to know that his split from the band has nothing to do with any familial issues with his brother, but that he has decided to leave the band for personal reasons. Beyond that, he wishes to remain quiet at the time and …read more

Rumors have been circulating that outspoken God Forbid guitarist Dallas Coyle has left the band after it was announced that he’ll be sitting out their upcoming No Fear Energy Music tour with Lamb Of God. There is nothing out there yet confirming these rumors to be true that he has indeed left the band permanently but they are looking to recruit a replacement while he sits this one out. I imagine we’ll hear something on Metalsucks in the near future about this if Dallas does his “Hard R” blog. As far as I know, Dallas and his wife recently …read more

God Forbid’s Dallas Coyle may not be everyone’s favorite metal celebrity, but I have to agree with most everything he talks about when he makes his weekly blog entry over at Metalsucks.net. In this case he goes in depth in his case of why Barack Obama is a reasonable choice and the rumors and allegations against him from the John McCain campaign.
 
"We have to be clear about what this election means to America and our future. All of the people out there who say Obama is  a socialist, get your fucking head checked. He’s a CONSTITUTIONAL lawyer. Socialism is a …read more

When I heard that the dudes from Poison and Def Leppard were having a war of words, I thought to myself…’hopefully there will be some kind of drive-by involved. And then I remembered that shit only happens in hip-hop. Oh well. A man can dream, can’t he? This week in Dallas Coyle’s feature over at Metalsucks, he talks about this whole ordeal and if you have ever read Dallas’s entries before you pretty much know what his take on it is going to be.

“I want the two candidates to give it a rest. I would hope most Americans know that half the shit these two guys say right now won’t be followed through. Case in point, when ‘W’ ran for office he said, “I’ll have a humble foreign policy.” Then those two planes came crashing …read more

Dallas Coyle of God Forbid(another contributor at Metalsucks) mentioned this awhile back when he talked about Light This City disbanding. Gas prices, even though they are dropping a tiny bit are effecting the large tours with multiple bands on the bill. I was going to write something up on this last week because I see a lot of bands dropping off of tour claiming financial hardships. I never got around to it and Vince Neilstein over at the Metal Sucks Mansion beat me to it. I’m not going to try to be an ass and write my own about it, …read more
