Forward To Eden Record Booklets (a little anthology)

 The aim of this posting is merely to provide high quality digital versions of the Booklets

from the last few Forward To Eden Records, because I have been asked more than once

and have already seen bad scans wandering around... anyways, here's a little anthology:

Forward To Eden was founded by myself in 2013.

The goal was always to start a cool vegan straight edge 90's style metalcore band and tour the world.

Yeah... never happened... instead you just got a collection of poorly recorded one-man band stuff.

The First Jihad: Liberation Of The Heart (2016)

The first compilation cd of everything until late 2016 (slightly re-mixed and mastered)

Song 1-3 is the 2015 Demo CD-R. Song 4-5 is the FTE Side from the 2016 Split with Content With Dying. Song 7 is the first promo track from 2014 (with Rat from Statement on Drums).
...and here's the booklet!
(Also contains a brief explanation of the Vegan Jihad and some other content)

When Blood Covers Morality (2017)
The first 7" EP. Same Recording session as everything else from 2015 though.
Kind of realized that this won't be an actual band anymore and went forward on my own.
(also the last record which is basically unmixed/mastered, because I was stupid, haha)
...and here's the booklet!

A Human Artefact (2018)
The first actual debut Album, co-released with the mighty Catalyst Records!
Unapologetic vegan straight edge metalcore with an actually listenable quality!
...and here's the booklet!

Ready To Kill For The Cult (2020)
The sophomore LP and a next step in professionality. Same ethics.
...and here's the booklet!
(which is actually huge and has a lot of extra content about the vgnx kvlt)

A Jihad For The Sake Of Nature (2021)
The new (mini-)Album, which has just been released. Another step forward.
No booklet yet. Just buy the damn thing! bbmarecords.com/shop
Might add digital files in a year or so...


Also, if you're new to this and now wanna get the anthology vinyl box, with even more info,
exclusive artworks, posters, etc. ...well, you're lucky, there's still a handfull left, check it out:

BBMA Band Of The Week #6: Forward To Eden

Forward To Eden

90's Style Hardline (Vegan-themed) Metalcore Band/Solo-Project from Germany.

(My own Band/Project) Demo CD (2015), Split 7" w/ Content With Dying (2016)
and Compilation Tape/CD (2016) all out on Bound By Modern Age Records.
FFO: Culture, Unborn, Statement & The Vegan Jihad!

Who are you, what are you doing in the band?

I'm Tim a.k.a. xRULEx and basically I am Forward To Eden. 

In FTE's first Incarnation (2014-2015) I did Vocals, Guitars & Bass.

In FTE's current Incarnation (2016-2017) I am doing Vocals & Guitars.
Besides that I am also singing in Castigator (Death/Thrash Metal Band)

and Through Chaos & Solitude (Melodic Black Metal Solo-Project) right now.

How has the band evolved since the beginning? 

What have you accomplished so far and what are your goals for the future? 

I kinda started this band/project (wrote the first songs for it) in late 2012/early 2013.
After I realized that I wont find people to bring it on stage with, I decided to do it as a solo project and recorded a first promo track with my good friend Rat (the man behind Statement).
Unfortunately he didn't had the time to record a whole demo with me and so it took some more time
until the first "demo" was released. This time with "The Vegan Warrior" on Drums.
Then, in late 2016 I had my first great achivement with my first Vinyl 7" release
and shortly after a CD release on another label than my own!

For this year, there is a lot more planed as well - the next Split 7" is already in the making
and there are also some possible line ups for a soon-to-be show in discussion - be prepared!

Any upcoming shows/releases/anything else you wanna tell us about? 

Shows? We'll see - I won't stand in the way of that.
Releases? Hopefully a lot! Probably some. Definitely at least 2 this year.

How do you feel about BBMA as a label? 

In what do we suck most/what could we do better in the future? 

Actually, I'd love to release on any other label(s) as well - so, feel free to get at me!
In what I do suck most? Probably in trying to do too much at once... like working a full time job,
doing the label, 2 solo-projects, a band and still managing private life (girlfriend, family, friends)

and hobbies (the gym, reading comics/mangas, watching series/movies, etc.) - I think I could be

a lot more productive if I'd cut out 2 or 3 of them... but yeah, I don't think that that will happen.
So... for now you'll have to live with that - but feel free to do your share and contribute in

listening to my output (https://boundxbyxmodernxage.bandcamp.com), spreading the word about it
and last but not least placing an order from the BBMA Webstore, so that I can continue. Thanks.

Ps: For this Week, all products Forward To Eden related are on Sale from the BBMA Webstore.
