FORBIDDEN Guitarist CRAIG LOCICERO Talks Band's Comeback On EXODUS Frontman STEVE "ZETRO" SOUZA's Toxic Vault (Video)
"...Last week, Bay Area metal legends Forbidden revealed their first and only European appearance this year will be at Belgium’s Alcatraz Metal Festival in August. On April 19th, guitarist Craig Locicero guested on Exodus singer Steve "Zetro" Souza's Toxic Vault and discussed Forbidden's comeback. Check out the clip below ... "
"... Fast forward to 2023. The once improbable and impossible happened. Forbidden is reforming with new blood! Locicero, Camacho & Smyth remain from the Omega Wave lineup.
New vocalist Norman Skinner will take the elite position that belonged to Russ Anderson. Norman shocked everyone who witnessed his performance of Chalice of Blood with LA thrashers Warbringer accompanying him as the band. It was undeniable to all in attendance. Norman grew up in the Bay Area. His first thrash metal show was seeing Forbidden at the Omni. Russ would point to Norman at shows and call him. “Little Russ” on the mic. It could ONLY be Norman Skinner that stands aside the band.
The Bay Area thrash / punk drum Legend Chris Kontos takes over the drum throne. In a long line of world renown drummers, Kontos is the most logical & qualified man for the job. Bostaph, Jacobs, Hoglan, Hernandez, Horn… World class talents. Now Kontos...."
