After two independent demos "Exhumation" and a rehearsal demo in 1991. God Forsaken got singed to French Adipocere records, through which they released their first EP "God Forsaken".

The band released two full-lengths : "Dismal Gleams of Desolation" in 1992 and "The Tide has Turned" in 1995 ( Both through Adipocere ). Band split up once in 1996, but then reunited to produce the 'Tomorrow Is Never' and 'Electric Releases' EP's in 2001-2002.
Most of the members are currently featured in a Doom Metal band called Funeral Planet
This is from their first full-length "Dismal Gleams of Desolation" of 1992
Lyrics :
Engulfed by a sense of loneliness
Feeling empty inside I silently cry
With tears in my eyes I scream for your name
You were so real, like the way it should be
Emotions failed, forsaken by what I am
Has it all come to an end?
Devoid of love my only friend
My love for you died within the end
I let you go, in a way I never wanted
And it is all over now, I leave myself to die
