It took another three years, until the follow up to "Incipit Satan" was recorded. After the departure of guitar player Tormentor, Gorgoroth continue on as a four piece, adding another guitar player when it comes time for touring and live shows. "Twilight of the Idols" shows Gorgoroth from several sides and could possibly be the darkest chapter in their career. Finally it is traditional Black Metal of Norwegian origin, performed by the ones who know how it works and who do it the best."
Members:
Infernus (Roger Tiegs) - Vocals, Guitars
Gaahl - Vocals
King Ov Hell - Bass
Dirge Rep - Drums (Live)
Eihwaz (formerly Skagg) - Guitars (Live)

This whole band is just nothing more than a circus show now...

I think with Infernus making the music now, Gorgoroth can, for once in a while focus on the music primarily. I'm excited to hear what comes of this. My hopes aren't THAT high. I am still very curious.

I have sorted the profiles. The real Gorgoroth is here: http://www.metalstorm.ee/bands/band.php?band_id=229 and the Gaahl/King Gorgoroth is here: http://www.metalstorm.ee/bands/band.php?band_id=3936 I've not used the word "Gorgoroth" in their name as they don't on their new myspace page (which is linked in their profile).

Written by BitterCOld on 10.03.2009 at 18:55 I totally agree, all this shit around the name and all is fucking ridiculous. However, I don't care, as I never liked Gorgoroth. Everything I heard from this band was boring, imo. I agree with those who say this band is very overrated and has nothing special. As for the name, why Ghaal and King would not call their band Ered Gorgoroth, since it's the complete name of that desolated place in Mordor? (as they can't use the name Gorgoroth anymore)

I never liked this band. To me it's more like a black metal parody band, than a real BM band.

Written by Lord_Regnier on 28.03.2009 at 15:36 I don't know about the copyright rules in Norway, but that probably would be too similar to Gorgoroth and thus not allowed. Then again, they're all using Tolkien's stuff...

Written by Lucas on 28.03.2009 at 16:46 I thought about it while writing my last post. I agree that it's probably too similar to Gorgoroth.

I would guess they choose the name they did to try to hold what little pride they have left. If they were to choose a name like "Ered Gorgoroth" then it would show that they can't give up on being the one and only gorgoroth (pretty pathetic). So instead, they choose a completely different name and are trying to show that their stronger than Infernus...even though the music is going to be exactly the same.

Written by Dangerboner on 17.08.2009 at 00:57 That's outstanding news. I'm sure the world will still be in order (if it ever was...) if Gaahl retired from metal. Fuck it... I'm listening to more Stoner shit anyways. Sleep, FTW!

Well, I don't like such bands, the music has nothing special just too noisy, I prefer distinct stuff like Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth cuz they've got some real specail stuff. And what about lyrics ? do they think that their shitty lyrics is holy and shouldn't be read by anyone ? anyway BM is music not lyrics...

Written by Bitter Dawn on 30.09.2009 at 03:43 Yup. First song fancied me, but the rest of the album seemed a bit too reliant on a certain formula. Well, its just not very memorable. It seemed like a decent album, but its definitely better imo than gaahl era stuff. Im sure quite a few people will like this album though.

I've listened to it about twice all the way through now, and then a few tracks here and there. I can't say I like it more than when Gaahl and other members were in the band, but it's still pretty damn good, fairly typical Infernus writing style, very distinctive.

I just have the album a listen to, and all in all I didn't mind it, not too bad at all. A fairly solid effort. Written by Bitter Dawn on 03.10.2009 at 09:56 I agree with your point about it being typical Infernus, I am also a fan of Pest's vocals too.

Oh definitely, the Infernu's signature was a breath of fresh air... and to hear it with great production makes it nicer.

Sunioj: The production does indeed bring some new life to the album, I'm an advocate of low-fi to get that raw, and true to the roots sound but, the higher quality on this new release does add a nice touch to it, as though it's the rebirth of the original Gorgoroth but with some experiance under their belts. Overall solid album, I can't think of any thing more to add to this thread.

Damn, the new album is INCREDIBLE. What a comeback, I was expecting it to be good, but not this good. My favourite album of 09 so far for sure.

Written by danielllewis on 05.10.2009 at 02:55 Best of '09 eh, that's quite a statement man! The year isn't over yet though, depending on what you like there are still a few albums to come before the year ends, Dark Funeral, Skitliv, Belphegor and I'm sure there's some more. Some other decent releases this year worth checking out if you haven't already (just for comparison of the year) Nazxul - Iconoclas Katharsis - Fourth Reich Otargos - Fuck God - Disease Process Sarke - Vorunah 1349 - Revelations Of The Black (I imagine you've heard this already, not as good as new Gorgoroth imo) DISHAMMER - Vintage Addiction Immortal - All Shall Fall Neutron Hammer - Extermination Kommand Secrets of the Moon - Privilegium Wolven Ancestry - Silence of the Boreal Bliss Of Flesh - Emaciated deity

Written by Dangerboner on 07.10.2009 at 11:36 Hm, yes you're right man, my fuck up... I was thinking how Antichrist had a split of Hat and Pest. Thanks for the correction.
