A band started simply as a musical outlet for songwriters Andrew Wong and Tristan Villani. Performances around Westwood and at the Worcester Palladium have gotten a few curious about the melodic thrash metal quartet.
Band/artist history
Guitarists Andrew Wong and Tristan formed a band as a way to explore their songwriting and to just have fun playing music they enjoyed. While the band was still in its infancy, bassist Jon Stoker left to pursue a degree from Berklee School of Music. In the search for a replacement bass player, Josh Lennon switched roles from drummer to bassist and drummer Steve Schrieber was added to the group. Andrew and Josh had been in a band together previously, so had Josh and Steve, and so had Steve and Tristan. The band chemistry abounded well before the first rehearsal and the band continues to grow musically. Tristan has decided to step down from Forever Blind. Former bassist Jon Stoker returns as the bands second guitarist.
Have you performed in front of an audience?

Yea. I guess our websites' server crashed or something like that. Sorry. Hopefully it will be back up soon.
Big News!! Forever Blind will be featured on an upcoming compilation cd released by Set X Records! Stay tuned for more details and a chance to get your hands on one
The official Forever Blind Website has been given a new look. Check out www.red-colored.org/foreverblind and let us know what you think. Stay tuned for summer shows in the Waltham area with Jon Stoker!
Both "Follow" and "Honor" were recored with seven other songs as part of our first full length album recorded in August. A demo was recorded a year ago, but the album sounds a lot better and it will be available soon. Thanks for your patience.
I must say, I am really impressed by what you guys have been doing, but on the song "Follow" i think you should let the song "build up" more before you start with the drums. The clean vocals sound a bit dry and lacks a little engagement, but the growling is just perfect. Possible to get a demo from you guys?
