Forbidden will be in the SoCal / LA area for the first time in 15 years. They will be bringing their 40 Years of Twisted Evil set to the Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles on Friday, July 25th. Nasty Savage, Hell Fire and Void are also due to play on the night.

Forbidden comments: “Everybody in Forbidden can’t even express how excited we are to play for the Los Angeles metal contingency once again. It’s been way too long! It’ll be extra sweet to debut our special setlist that we’ve been preparing for our European tour that starts with the Wacken Open Air the following week. See you all in SoCal very soon!”

This is an All Ages show. Doors open at 7:00pm.

Forbidden recently shared an audio teaser for new single “Divided By Zero”. Check it out below:

“Another taste of ‘Divided By Zero’. Our first new music since 2010’s Omega Wave. Step by step… we get closer.”

Bloodstock Open Air organizers recently released the video below, along with the following message:

“Bay Area thrash metal legends, Forbidden, made their long-awaited return to UK soil with a devastatingly powerful full set performance at Bloodstock Open Air 2024, proving that their legacy is not just alive—it’s on fire. Taking over the main stage at Catton Park on August 10th, Forbidden unleashed a relentless barrage of classic thrash fury that left thousands of fans in awe.

With a setlist packed full of fan favorites and technical masterpieces, Forbidden delivered a sonic assault that was both precise and punishing. Every riff, solo, and breakdown reminded the crowd exactly why Forbidden are considered pioneers of the Bay Area thrash movement. Their performance combined old-school intensity with modern-day muscle, captivating longtime fans and winning over a new generation of metalheads.

From the explosive opening to the final crushing moments, the band’s energy never let up. The pit was a warzone of headbangers, moshers, and diehards screaming every lyric back at the stage. Forbidden’s tight musicianship, scorching guitar work, and commanding stage presence made this one of the most talked-about sets of BOA 2024.

This performance wasn’t just a comeback—it was a declaration. Thrash is eternal, and Forbidden are still among its fiercest torchbearers.”

Setlist:

“Parting of the Ways”
“Infinite”
“Out of Body (Out of Mind)”
“Forbidden Evil”
“March Into Fire”
“Twisted Into Form”
“Step by Step”
“Through Eyes of Glass”
