Perhaps Immortal didn't split up after all.

[no country for old wainds]

The rumours about the split of Immortal aren’t 100% correct.
In fact, IMMORTAL will simply take a long break, as the musicians need to rest a while after 12 months of excessive touring. In the meantime, both Abbath and Horgh will concentrate on their own projects. To start with, the debut album of Grimfist will probably be released in September on Candlelight records, with Horgh on drums. So folks, don’t worry, you know what “IMMORTAL” means

Record Label: IMMORTAL Did Not Split Up! - July 21, 2003
*
According to a posting on the Nuclear Blast Records web site, the reports of a split within the ranks of long-running Norwegian black metallers IMMORTAL "aren't 100% correct. In fact, IMMORTAL will simply take a long break, as the musicians need to rest a while after 12 months of excessive touring. In the meantime, both [guitarist/vocalist] Abbath and [drummer] Horgh will concentrate on their own projects. To start with, the debut album of GRIMFIST [featuring Horgh and ex-IMMORTAL bassist Iscariah] will probably be released in September on Candlelight Records, with Horgh on drums. So folks, don't worry, you know what 'IMMORTAL' means."

Shit, that's some good fucking news right there...

Their website still says they are done...I bet they say the response and decided not to call it yet, and just take some time off.

It'd better be true.

 

[swizzlenuts]

Kick ass, this better be true, i was a little dissapointed that they broke up.... they rule, one of my favorite BM bands

 

[swizzlenuts]

too bad at www.immortal.nu it says they are broken up.... you suck for getting my hopes back up!

 

[Psychonaut]

I got back from vacation to find out that they had called it quits. Very depressing news indeed. Seems odd that they would do this at the top of their game but I guess they have to do what's best for them. Hopefully it's just a break.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Meh. I don't know what to believe now.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Ok, now I'm pretty sure they did.

 

[MardyAss]

Godammit!
I'm confused....

 

[no country for old wainds]

They did split up. It's Nuclear Blast fucking everything up. Stupid fucktards.

 

[FailingAcension]

Yes, on check the Borknagar forum for their offical statement (NB's)

 

[Life Sucks]

I'm really not sure what to think now.
