GORGOROTH: Collaboration With FROST Called Off
May 4, 2004The planned collaboration between Norwegian black metallers GORGOROTH and drummer Kjetil "Frost" Haraldstad (SATYRICON, 1349) has been cancelled, according to an official statement from Khaoz Productionz.
"The main reason [the collaboration has been called off] is the planned Europe tour in October with GORGOROTH and 1349, which is a strong wish from both bands that will happen," reads the statement. "Frost's present dedication and full-time work with his main bands 1349 and SATYRICON makes it difficult to focus 100% on GORGOROTH due to more assignments the rest of the year.
"GORGOROTH is currently working on another solution for the forthcoming album and live performances."
As previously reported, GORGOROTH have parted ways with Nuclear Blast Records and are currently negotiating a new record deal with an as-yet-undisclosed label.
GORGOROTH drew international attention in early February after they were accused of "offending religious feelings" during a concert in Poland. The band were also suspected of breaching the Polish law on protection of animals by displaying the severed and impaled heads of sheep as part of their stage act.
