GORGOROTH: Making Of 'Carving A Giant' Video Documentary Posted Online

December 3, 2007

Headbanger's Blog has posted a documentary clip on the making of the new GORGOROTH video for the song "Carving a Giant". Shot by MTV Norway, the footage features interviews with director Tommy Naess and the bandmembers from inside a cave near Bergen, Norway. The video itself is a recreation of the band's 2004 concert in Poland, which was filmed for national television, but was subsequently banned by the government, which still has the recorded tapes. The show, which subjected GORGOROTH to criminal investigation, featured naked, crucified male and female models, dozens of sheep's heads on stakes and gallons of fake blood.

Watch the "making of" footage and the finished video below. (Note: The "making of" video stream is not available to non-U.S. residents.)

As previously reported, GORGOROTH guitarist Infernus — who is involved in a legal dispute with his estranged bandmates over the rights to the group's name — has launched the "official" web site and MySpace page for his version of GORGOROTH. According to a posting on the site, GORGOROTH's lineup "has been subject to several changes — about 25 different musicians have been involved with the band since its inception . . . GORGOROTH at present consists of Infernus as the sole permanent member, which means that no live appearances are planned for the immediate future. Infernus is busy finishing the material for the next full-length album, 'Quantos Possund Ad Satanitatem Trahunt', to be released on Regain Records. Some members have already been added to GORGOROTH's future lineup, and an announcement concerning this will be issued before long."

The GORGOROTH version featuring frontman Gaahl and bassist King ov Hell alongside session members Nick Barker (drums; ex-DIMMU BORGIR, CRADLE OF FILTH, TESTAMENT),Teloch (guitar; NIDINGR, UMORAL, 1349) and Sykelig (guitar) has just completed a tour of Europe.
