"... With this EP, Forlorn have laid the foundations for something that could be very special, and hopefully their next step will be even more impressive".
Dave Musson-Powerplay Magazine-June 2007.

Forlorn's second E.P 'The Forlorn Hope', recorded with Greg Chandler, has already had it's National radio airtime with Kerrang Radio.
"...Once again, Forlorn have impressed and on this EP they have bettered their previous work by a considerable margin. Right now that is precisely what they should be aiming to do - keep on improving. These five songs are a good example of a hard-working, talented young band that is starting to realise their potential. But what is most intrguing and exciting about Forlorn, is that there is clearly more to come, and if they carry on in this fashion, they'll have no problems at all."
