Formed sometime in the year 2002, Forgotten continues to make rock music that attempts to satisfy the musical and emotional needs of both its members and listeners. With a powerful sound rooted in the guitar-driven rock of the 90s, singer/guitarist Karl Webner draws from a number of influences to create a rock experience definitely worth catching. Drummer/background vocalist Mike Holden's unique percussion style and strikingly aggressive techniques add great lengths to Forgotten's powerful sound, and rounding out this trio is Kenny Lee, a bassist whose style is crucial in developing both rhythm and feel. Lyrically, Forgotten tends to dwell in the realm of "predominately depressing", but even their most strained characters still carry a light. By valuing honesty over radio-friendly pop lyrics, and musical integrity over the cookie-cutter bands we see all too often today, Forgotten are a band that demands to be heard.
