These guys are criminally overlooked. The talent in this band in the day was unmeasurable and thrashed all over some of the bigger more popular bands of the time. Forbidden absolutely slays 🤘
Same here. I was 13 in 1990. A friend of mine had The Ultimate Revenge Part II vhs and that is where I first heard Forbidden. I hit Turtles Music later that week and bought the cassette. Good times! BTW I’m 42 now.
AGREED!!! I was born in 70 so I was 20 yrs old when this came out and I went and saw them on this tour in Providence RI at The Living Room....great show till I left and found my 71 nova broken in and they took my beloved Alpine deck, Kenwood equalizer and my JBL 6x9's!!! FUCK!!! ahhh the memories of being 20!! hahahaaa!!!!
One of the best times In my life. Living in the Bay area Active Duty navy and seeing Forbidden the first time at the Omni in Oakland. Tried not to ever miss a show after that. They completely crush Live. good times.
@70 Series Tires Hell yeah man! Was out there for the big quake. Between the Omni, Stone and One step beyond. Seen Vio-lence several times along with Forbidden and Vicious Rumors. And also a band called Epidemic. Good times!! Much beer and pit action! Machine Head played here a few years ago. Talked with Rob and Phil about the old days at the Omni. Cheers man!!
My first heavy concert was Forbidden when they did the Forbidden Evil tour and I have to say it was the heaviest concert I have ever seen and to this day it still remains the Heaviest concert I have ever seen, it's the way they head bang and play, they really know how to move on stage and all you see is hair everywhere moving in awesome rhythmic patterns as Russ is belting out his great lyrics which really make a person think about life, this band has the whole heavy package, I'm glad people are getting to see what I saw back in the day so they know what I am talking about ... much love to all of the Forbidden fAns out there ;)
I got to see Forbidden and War And Peace opening for Death Angel back in 1990 at Airport Music Hall in Allentown, Pennsylvania. We met Gus and Dennis Pepa and Andy Galeon and they were easily the most down to earth people we ever met from all of the bands. And the next night it was Ronnie James Dio and Yngwie Malmsteeen at Allentown Fairground! Good old days!

Hes got one of the best metal voices. He can scream he can sound clean ,growls the whole 9! I used to call these guys and like destruction, Testament, Kreator ,Slayer etc Dark or Demon Thrash or black thrash. These bands were more dark and hardcore than like Metallica and Megadeth. I really like how Demon Thrash sounds as a descriptive! Let's push it people. Every band from the 80s and 90s shouldn't all just be thrown into the thrash catagory. Blackened Thrash sounds like your going to eat it, like a food. Demon Thrash Baby! Great band !!!
Old fan here, i always go over in my head how the musuc industry at the time was not ready for this high level of music, so fukin amazing , good times seeing them live in the Bay Area
I haven't listened to this band for years, then Suzanne Somers died and a video on her sitcom Step By Step popped up on my Recommendations and this song started looping in my head, so here I am.
I like how bands are getting more views I been sharing the shit out of underrated thrash bands glad to see them go from like 10000 views to like 80000 in just a,few months
Heavy Nation I was pretty bummed when I found out. Honestly, I had never listened to Forbidden before that, but I was familiar with Tim because of Nevermore
Still remember when I was in USA and Forbidden Evil was just released. So I bought a couple tapes and bring them in Montreal. Si that was it, Forbidden was my best thrash metal band. I was into alot, Atrophy, Xentrix, Wargasm, Nuclear Assault, Scatterbrain, Heathen and blah blah... But Forbidden was by far the most special of them. The voice of Russ, the drumming and what about the guitars... Plus the sound was amazing... A perfect album.
I actually recorded this when it debuted on Headbangers Ball on MTV hosted by Members of Death Angel. I recorded it onto my VHS copy of Ultimate Revenge cutting off the end of Forbidden.
This song seems like stepping right into deep combat. A war zone that is very active and fighting its way through a mind field. They are experts at executing their song to relate the turmoil and what the expert musicians are playing to give our minds some fuel to rocket through space.
do it for yourself kid!!. when i was a kid i learn more about life with old school metal bands than anything....its hilarious how people dont understand these bands try to give us an absolute positive message but of course as a punch in your face, not in a sweet way.
as letras da musica me assustaram... saí de um periodo de 6 anos onde eu nao tive um "emprego" fixo (provavelmente o periodo em que eu estive mais feliz) e agora que eu tenho o maior salario que ja recebi na vida me sinto destruído miseravel, nao passou nem 6 meses que to ali.... to tentando entender o que acontece e se tem alguma solucao... nos ultimos tempos comecei a perceber isso, que as melhores coisas na minha vida sempre aconteceram em periodos que eu nao tive emprego, no momento que eu começo a trabalhar a ansiedade e o stress toma conta, dinheiro na conta nao compra felicidade
Add a bit of Testament riffery into the mix as well. I wouldn't say there's a whole lot of Maiden in Forbidden, maybe sometimes in the vocal leanings of Russ, but also not at all times.
wow... the lyrics caught my attention... you know what it's crazy? and I'm still trying to understand all of this in my head... I just came out of a period where I was out of a "job" for 6 years of my life, and now I have the highest paying salary I ever had, but I feel miserable exactly like the lyrics described, not even 6 months in... WTF and how do I fix this
when I was younger I was surrounded by anxiety, aggression, fear, chaos, angst but it seemed like these were the things that were keeping me feeling alive and pushing further? as soon as I reached freedom and peace, problems started... there must be another way, it must not end like this, please fucking god

I love you man😂
One of the best thrash bands ever , first 2 albums, amazing 🤘🏻
One of the best Bay Area Thrash bands without a doubt. Amazing.

@@tomquirin4231 Vio-Lence and Death Angel are my favourite Bay Area bands. Whiplash are a great band too. Got Insult to Injury.
Tim Calvert RIP....Amigo
🕊️
These guys are criminally overlooked. The talent in this band in the day was unmeasurable and thrashed all over some of the bigger more popular bands of the time. Forbidden absolutely slays 🤘
The funny thing about the last wave of 80's thrash is that it produced some great albums like this one even though the genre was about to die off.
got into this in 1990 when I was 16 now I'm 43! still think forbidden are the best band ever!
Same here.. Age 44 now. Still have this cassette in my closet. As far as best metal band tho Im going with Kreator. ;)
I got the vinyl reissue a few months ago. This album is a classic and btw I am 48.
I'm almost 43 and still think this is the best album ever made!

Absolute Masterpiece!!!Forbidden Legend!!!!Thrash till Death!
Nelson Oyarzun , no brother, Live to THRASH, don't Thrash till death
Nelson Oyarzun Amen
Welcome You To the Church Of Lies,!!!!!! masterpiece Brother,,,, Forbidden Evil is great too,,,,Thanks
@@dannywaystedofficialhardnh2235 1990-Megadeth Rust In Peace is better tbh
@@derekobs9688 100% Agree on that,,,it's a MASTERPIECE Bro,,,,
Those guitar riffs are tighter than their pants... awesome
Hell yeah!
😂
oh shit lmfao SOCIETYS NOT DONE WITH YOU
One of the best damn albums ever recorded !
The Best,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Megadeth Rust In Peace from 1990 destroys this album lol
Arka \m/ How dare you?

Always loved Tim's soloing ❤️ soooooo unique and dark!!! Forbidden is just amazing!!!!
Love when he plays this stuff for me!!
My first heavy concert was Forbidden when they did the Forbidden Evil tour and I have to say it was the heaviest concert I have ever seen and to this day it still remains the Heaviest concert I have ever seen, it's the way they head bang and play, they really know how to move on stage and all you see is hair everywhere moving in awesome rhythmic patterns as Russ is belting out his great lyrics which really make a person think about life, this band has the whole heavy package, I'm glad people are getting to see what I saw back in the day so they know what I am talking about ... much love to all of the Forbidden fAns out there ;)
Nice! Saw them with death Angel. That was a heavy show!
One of the best 2nd gen thrash bands ever! This album is prefect!
God, I love that solo in the middle!
Twisted Into Form was the best album and Forbidden Evil album kicking ass too.
I got to see Forbidden and War And Peace opening for Death Angel back in 1990 at Airport Music Hall in Allentown, Pennsylvania. We met Gus and Dennis Pepa and Andy Galeon and they were easily the most down to earth people we ever met from all of the bands.

One of the best thrash songs
I have this cassette still. Bought it a few days after release. Man, spent so much time at the record stores buying death/thrash metal.
One of if not the best thrash records ever! The riffing on this record is second to none
Step by step it's happening, it's slowly eating you
Numbing your mind to the pain
You broke the rule, the payment's cruel
Selfish road, you paved the way
Hiding in your fantasy, it's easier to lie
The choice you made could kill
You're just one lonely victim
A wasted life!
Don't you feel as if your walls fall in?
The way you live could put you underground
Step by step, by step
Surviving hanging by a thread
Step by step, by step
It's time to turn the table
Step by step, by step
Society's not done with you
Step by step, by step
It just gets worse until you - pull through!
Screaming out, you cry for love, they only toss you out
Rejected, lost in a daze
It's all so cold, do as you're told
Hit your knees now start to pray
Dream about a time before, securely locked away
Within your heart is the key
If you don't open up then...
You'll lose your life!
Don't you feel as if your walls fall in?
The way you live could put you underground
Step by step, by step
Surviving hanging by a thread
Step by step, by step
It's time to turn the table
Step by step, by step
Society's not done with you
Step by step, by step
It just gets worse until you - pull through!
Deep inside you're selfish, and infected with desire
Filled your head with dreams that died
Just couldn't get no higher
Look at what you've become - Synthetic, morphite cyst
Your luck's run out, the thread has snapped
A cold depressing end -
Don't you feel as if your walls fall in
The way you live could put you underground
Step by step, by step
Surviving, hanging by a thread
Step by step, by step
It's time to turn the table
Step by step, by step
Society's not done with you
Step by step, by step
It just don't stop
Step by step, by step
Don't try to run before you walk
Step by step, by step
Do it for yourself kid!
Step by step, by step
It's just the way you have to learn
Step by step, by step
Step by step, by step, by step
Step by step, by step, by step
Step by step, by step, by step
Step by step, by step, by step!
interesting fact: the Forbidden sang about the table long before the Hatfield's mainstream memes
Such a great band that was NEVER recognized for their talent. They waxed them all
Hes got one of the best metal voices. He can scream he can sound clean ,growls the whole 9!

Twisted into form is a fricken masterpiece.🤙🏻🤘🏻
Thrash masterpiece , Forbidden is a legend !! 🤘💎
Yo, not sure how long they've been rocking it but ya it's hitting spot on.... May they rock onnnnn forevaaaa x
I've known tim calvert for 30 years and forbidden destroys violence, both are from the bay area, rip tim you were a great person Gary R.
Semsacional tema IMPRESIONANTE..
Great jam still have the cassette to this
Don't play it. It might snap LOL
Forbidden: Twisted into Form - The first CD I ever bought! An incredible album!
I seen this video on Headbangers Ball back in the day and i thought that i would never see it again. Killer song!
3:09 amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Old fan here, i always go over in my head how the musuc industry at the time was not ready for this high level of music, so fukin amazing , good times seeing them live in the Bay Area

I'm so glad my custom Forbidden - Twisted Into Form back patch arrived today!
Still watching this in 2019! Singer brushes teeth with beer, quoted from "Hard & Heavy" VHS from the old dayz.
Forbidden forever...Russ Anderson, I salute you
Forbidden Evil album cover has been my back patch for 10+ years, no intent in changing that ever!!
Awesome band !!!
Not the strongest track off of the album, but the riffmastery and great lead guitar work make this band special.
I love this lp!
Amazing song ever!!!
I still play this album often! 🤘
Melbourne 2011 epic gig never thought I'd se them live
RIP Tim Calvert. :'(
RIP Tim...your last flight towards heaven \m/
The best thrash record ever!!

Heavy Nation I was pretty bummed when I found out. Honestly, I had never listened to Forbidden before that, but I was familiar with Tim because of Nevermore
Heavy Nation What?...When?
One of those lucky guys who saw them on this tour. ❤
чисто шедевр.....
I think this was Forbidden's way of saying to the New Kids on the Block that "Step by Step" didn't have to be a shitty song.
Yup....I thought the same thing!!!!
i really think the NKOTB version is better, but this one is 3rd to none.
How dare you besmirch the good name of NKOTB!
😀😀😀😀🤘🤘🤘
Excellent...Perfect album!!! Classic and legendary album!!!
What a Great Band!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻✨✨✨✨

この曲と「out of body」が好き。
My favorite band ! Pure felling, hard work guitars! Amazing!!!
Really underrated band. One of the best
POWER !!!!!!!
This Used To Be On Heavy Rotation On WSOU Seton Hall Radio Back In The Days
Kicked Ass Then Kicks Ass Now
Best Metal album EVER
Best ALBUM ever!
Sadly Forbidden is underrated and never got the attention they deserved
This song seems like stepping right into deep combat. A war zone that is very active and fighting its way through a mind field. They are experts at executing their song to relate the turmoil and what the expert musicians are playing to give our minds some fuel to rocket through space.
Interesting take seeing how the lyrics are about fighting drug addiction. I like yours too.
do it for yourself kid!!. when i was a kid i learn more about life with old school metal bands than anything....its hilarious how people dont understand these bands try to give us an absolute positive message but of course as a punch in your face, not in a sweet way.
wow
Maestro Paul Bostaph una bestialidad en esos drums
it was my school time when i discovered this album... only good thing that i learned in that school: GOOD MUSIC
RIP Tim Calvert.
Love this song, used to see them in the Bay Area whenever they played!
Masterpiece 😍🤘😍🤘😍🤘
240p we meet again, my old friend.

I just noticed this band sounds like Maiden and Anthrax combined like perfectly
Add a bit of Testament riffery into the mix as well. I wouldn't say there's a whole lot of Maiden in Forbidden, maybe sometimes in the vocal leanings of Russ, but also not at all times.
great band
One of the Bay Area legends, thrash til' death for all eternity #Metalalways
This takes me way back to puberty
Me too, 'bout 3 years ago🤣
It's nostalgic indeed.
wow... the lyrics caught my attention... you know what it's crazy? and I'm still trying to understand all of this in my head... I just came out of a period where I was out of a "job" for 6 years of my life, and now I have the highest paying salary I ever had, but I feel miserable exactly like the lyrics described, not even 6 months in...

all the work, all the effort, just to end like this... there must be another way that I'm missing
Who in 2024?
Not me.
Just saw these guys in May at the Maryland Death Fest. Still kicking ass after all these years 🤘🤘
