Eric Forrest (born 1970) is a Canadian heavy metal musician. Active since 1988, Forrest is best known for playing in a number of metal bands, including Voivod and E-Force.
During the late 1980s/early 1990s, Forrest was a member of two bands Liquid Indian and Thunder Circus. He joined Voivod in early 1994 following the departure of original vocalist Denis "Snake" Bélanger. He recorded two studio albums with them, Negatron (1995) and Phobos (1997), as well as a compilation album, Kronik (1998), and a live album, Voivod Lives (2000), before departing in 2001 when Snake returned.
Upon his departure from Voivod in 2001, Forrest formed his own band entitled E-Force, named after his Voivod moniker.
