E-Force was formed in Montreal in the spring of 2001 by singer/bassist Eric Forrest, upon his departure from cyber-metallers Voivod.
After choosing to use his Voivod moniker as the bands name, Eric was joined by guitarists Bryan Donahue (formerly of Homicide),Dan Lauzon(formerly of Entropy) and drummer Louis Levesque (ex-Genetic Control).
E-Force was signed with the label, Season Of Mist Records and released their debut album "Evil Forces" on October 20th, 2003.
They played in june 2003, for the Obey the Flames Festival in Montreal with Strapping Young Lad, Immolation.
Because of personal and business reasons, Eric relocated in France and changed the line up,with the touring members: Dennis Roussel (Soul Erosion, Diatribe), Jerome Point (Mutanzero), Krof (Catacombe, Hellfrost).Although
Louis Levesque did continue and played with the groupe until july 2004.+Tim
Gutierrez(P:FF) filled in on guitar,june 2004.....
Since this time, they opened for Impaled Nazarene and Scarve, they performed for the Six Pack Week end Festival in Cleveland in june 2004 (with Doro, Metal Church, Dismember), and the Raismes festival in september 2004 (with Angra, Rage, Primal Fear.).
In winter 2005 they made a european tour with Carpathian Forest, Tsjuder and Wykked Wytch.
In the end of 2005, E FORCE is back with a new line up and a new demo, more heavy and melodic and always thrash.
The new guitar player of E Force is 19 year old guitar hero influenced by Malmsteem, Marty Friedman, Andy Laroque
The current line up is:
ERIC FORREST: bass/vocals
CYRIL BERNHARD: guitars

THE RETURN OF THE BAT
Specimen will bring their special brand of glam mayhem, The Batcave to London again.
After last year’s wildly-successful 25th anniversary Batcave event, The Batcave returns to its original spawning ground of London’s West End on Sunday July 19 for another night of blasphemy, lechery and blood.
Specimen (Fresh from a fantastic show at Leipzig’s Waves Gotik festival), the original Batcave instigators will headline the lurid frolics at the Embassy Club, (29 Old Burlington St, London W1S3AP) Also on the bill are original Batcavers Sexbeat, with DJs Hamish and Cavey Nick, cavorting from decks to decadence with the usual brutal, trouser-dropping surprises & suitably confronting & barbaric entertainment.
The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in the Batcave Pram. All set in a spooky Bladerunner environment!
So dress to kill … prepare for a thrill & Expect the unexpected!
The Batcave will be open from 10pm till 3am. Tickets £15 available from www.ticketweb.co.uk and Resurrection Records.
More info at www.specimenbatcave.net
