Gorgoroth sign with Regain Records

[TheGraveDigger]

Norwegian black metallers GORGOROTH have signed a deal with Sweden's Regain Records. The group recently completed the drum tracks for their new album, "Ad Majorem Sathanas Gloriam", at Lydriket Studios in Norway for a tentative late spring/early summer release.

GORGOROTH were most recently signed to Nuclear Blast Records, who released the band's last three efforts: "Twilight of the Idols" (2003), "Incipit Satan" (2000) and "Destroyer" (1998).

GORGOROTH recently inked a deal with the French label Season of Mist for the reissues of their first three albums: "Pentagram" (1994), "Antichrist" (1996) and "Under the Sign of Hell" (1997). All three will be re-released on February 17 in a remastered, digipack version.

Upcoming GORGOROTH shows:

Feb. 11 - John Dee - Oslo, NOR
Feb. 12 - Hydranten - Hamar, NOR
Mar. 26 - Hof Ter Loo - Antwerpen, BEL
Mar. 27 - La Locomotive - Paris, FRA
Mar. 28 - 013 - Tilburg, NETH
Jul. 02 - With Full Force Festival - Leipzig, GER

I keep meaning to pick up some of these guys older albums. I am going to do so in the very near future.

The Countess album is better. It's a dumb idea they're going to remaster those other albums though.

Now the question is...

Can Gorgoroth maintain the staggering level of mediocrity they've achieved on their last few albums? Or will they succumb to the temptations of progression??

Thoughts, anyone?

Doubt it... They seem to take a certain pride in being consistent, silly as it might be. I enjoyed "Twilight of the Idols", although it hardly made my top ten 2003 list...
