Gorgoroth are black metal veterans from the early Norwegian scene. Infernus, the founder and driving force behind the band, remained the only permanent member since the band was formed.

Gorgoroth are black metal veterans from the early Norwegian scene. Infernus, the founder and driving force behind the band, remained the only permanent member since the band was formed. In 2007, band mates Gaahl (Vocalist) and King Ov Hell (Bass) trademarked and copyrighted the Gorgoroth name, along with their music, logos etc. prior to a court case with Infernus over the legalities of the band after he was kicked out. Gaahl and King won the settlement and have, in laughable terms, excommunicated Infernus from Gorgoroth. They are well known for their unsettling stage shows, one of which included three mock crucifixions of naked women, bags over their heads, with severed animal heads lining the stage on stakes... in the Pope's hometown of Krakow, Poland. Most of the members, past and present, have also been in and out of jail over the course of their careers, mostly for assault charges. Their early work is raw, definitive black metal, whereas the more recent albums have a cleaner production and more death metal influence. « hide |
