Dissatisfied with unfinished music from previous projects, Matt Kimball (Crucial Times, Hunger, Sink Or Swim, Get Stoked Records), recruited two friends in Boston, MA to help record an EP of fast melodic hardcore/punk. Filling the spots of guitar and drums, were Charles Chaussinand and Kevin Thompson of Boston Hardcore act Spirits (formerly Test Of Time), as well as backing vocals from Justin Gonyea and Sean Farrell. While not a live band, Ten Forward helped bridge a gap between projects and allowed for the creative process to continue among it's members. Will there be any future music? Who knows. Either way, the record is sure to stand well alone.
