The band's frontman Abbath has released a statement regarding the future of Immortal or rather the end. Essentially, Abbath will move on with a new band under his name and the name of Immortal, for the time being, will rest. Abbath will perform at Blastfest next year and already has announced a show in London this September as well.

The drama continues on Immortal's camp. There have been new updates on their Legal Battles In The North over the band's name/logo. The group's frontman Abbath (Olve Eikemo) has attempted to claim rights to the Immortal name via his sole proprietorship Eikemo Compositions. Guitarist Demonaz (Harald Nævdal) and drummer Horgh (Reidar Horghagen) want the Immortal trademark to be shared by all three members. Well, Abbath has responded and says he attempted to secure exclusive rights to the band's name and logo because he thought drummer Horgh and guitarist Demonaz had quit the band, according to Dagbladet.no. More things have come up, as the fact that Abbath has been working on a new Immortal album with other musicians.
