Hi everyone, Vaughan from Grave Forsaken here. Welcome to the latest update from the band. In this update we have a cool announcement that we hope you will be pleased with. Elias and I have been working on a side project for a while now and we have decided to release a new album as a free download.  The album is “Fundamental Principles” under the name of “Gregory Salmela Project”. If you go to www.graveforsaken.com/gregory-salmela-project you will find all the details you need to download your free copy immediately! 

You might be wondering why we are releasing a side project. Well the answer is quite simple. For many years, Elias and I have written and recorded songs as potential Grave Forsaken tracks. When Elias put together this batch of songs he was going in a hard rock direction with his writing. For a variety of reasons we decided not to release the songs under the Grave Forsaken name but still want to share them. We already released the title track on the “Ten Years” compilation a couple of years back but the others remained unheard until now. Some of the songs feature Grave Forsaken members Matt Skipworth and Luke Gallagher, whilst others have guest appearances from family and friends of the band including Juho Kinaret, Scott Devenish and Davin Salmela. There is even a co-write from our old drummer Richard Sallows. Each song has a dedicated page that features full credits and lyrics.

As well as the free download we also have professionally printed CD-R copies available for $14.99 Australian. All the ordering details are on our website. If you’re a fan of Grave Forsaken it is well worth checking out this new side project. We hope you like it! 

God Bless and Rock On! 

Vaughan
