"Forward" was the second album from Turn, a Meath based indie rock band. Their first album had seen a large interest from Ireland and the UK but it seemed to die away as quickly as it rose due to poor marketing and promotion from Infectious Records who concentrated their attention on JJ72. The band were dropped from Infectious Records and forced to create 'Nurture Records' in order to release music. After this the band struggled to finance and produce 2001's "In Position EP", but the EP managed to secure a loyal fanbase in Ireland and constant touring helped the band get back on their feet and start recording 'Forward" in 2002. However, tragedy again struck the band when original bass player Gavin Fox left to join Idlewild
The Album was finished in early 2003 and released to rave reviews and strong sales, managing to enter the Irish charts at No.8. The Album is considered Turn's strongest of their catalogue and showed a massive musical growth from their debut "Antisocial".

Trivia


Forward is the highest selling Turn album to date and was the only one of the three recorded without a record company being involved.

Original Bassist Gavin Fox left the band on New Years eve 2002 and was replaced by ex-Skindive bassist, Alan Lee. Alan stayed with the band for two years before being replaced by Ciran Kavanagh from Irish band The Rags.

"No More" is called "I Close My Eyes" on the CD because Ollie Cole couldn't remember the name of the song on the day the artwork was being done."
