Forgotten Alibi is a band pressing the limits of typical genres. It's rare that musicians with such dedication and passion for their art come together, and when they do, the result is a band for whom limits mean nothing. The band combines typical aspects of the post hardcore genre with a newer refreshing twist of melodic breakdowns and poetic lyrics remnescent of bands like Thrice, Story of The Year, Silverstein and Taking Back Sunday. After spending the last year building up a significant fan base around the local San Diego music scene, they signed with Pacific Ridge Records in September of 2004, and are currently promoting their new EP, "We Won't Be Open To Fall"..
Why this name?
We chose the name Forgotten Alibi because it was the best thing we could come up with in the short time we had to think up a name.
Do you play live?
We most definitely play live! We've played several shows at SOMA, the Epicentre, Ground Zero and Canes Bar and Grill, and we're always up for playing more shows.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The online music industry does two things... one, it lets little bands like us be heard, and two, it lets a lot of people rip-off the music industry by illegally downloading music!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hells yes
