Morella's Forest

[1] Before signing to Tooth and Nail, Morella's Forest produced two works: a demo called Bass, and an EP entitled Bozur.

After a half-cancelled tour in 1996 the band reported that although they were still "100% about fashion"[9] they would direct their efforts toward the general market and emphasize a radio friendly sound.

[9] They told 7ball magazine that the only way to make money was to be like dc Talk or Audio Adrenaline, and as for themselves "We don't want to be some innovative, cool band that's doing something really weird for the Christian market.

"[9] Following their 1998 release drummer Nate McCorkle left to join the Christian rock band Johnny Q.

[11] With production help from Jesse Sprinkle and Kevin Jackson their music departs a bit from their signature sound, taking a lighter and more indie pop influenced, radio friendly tone.
