I just came home from the Airport, me and my band just came home from a festival that we performed on. Its called Slottsfjell festival. Lucky us got invited to warm up for Gorgoroth, with 1 more band aswell.
We even met Gaahl, their vocalist, really nice guy, it was sooooo fun. I will remember this trip for life.

I know I've seen atleast one Gorgoroth fan on this forum, so I know it wont be a total waste to write this! biggrin.gif

This was the first time Gorgoroth played in 2 years.
Before Gorgoroth started playing, they set up a big black blanket infront of the stage, we couldnt see anything. Me and my band mates were of course in front! biggrin.gif I think we waited for about 1.5 hours.
There was silence... Suddenly you could hear the drummer count with his High hat, and BAM! They released the big black carpet instant when they started the first song, it was freakin mindblowing!!
They had this really crazy concert in Italy once, with alot of blood and stuff, and people crucified upside down. I remember someone said that they kinda wanted to recreate that concert. They did not crucify anyone, but they had the whole freakin package!!! Around 20 sheep heads on stakes and alot of torches beetween, corpse paint, leather and spikes! Freakin unbelievable, it was soooo great. We were standing infront, headbanging like crazy!! It was SOOOOOOOO freakin good I cant describe it.
In the end one of the guitarists threw a sheep head to the audience, I touched it! biggrin.gif

The sound was freakin good, their playing was freakin good, everything was just a 100% perfect.
This is by far the best concert I've ever been to. Been on Iron Maiden twice, unfortunatly I sat far back, so I guess I cant compare it.

Edit: I forgot to mention that they played songs from every album except Pentagram(wich is a freakin great album). They played alot from the new album, but that doesnt matter, becuase every Gorgoroth album is as strong as the rest. Gorgoroths new album is amazing, even though its new! biggrin.gif:D

10/10!


This is not from the same performance, but it looks pretty much the same. Alot more torches on the concert I was on though biggrin.gif

Did anyone see "Heavy Metal: A Headbangers Jounrey" when they interviewed Gaahl.

HA! It was Hilarious.

"So what is your music about"

Gaahl gently twirls his wine around in his cup for what seems forver, takes a sip and replys.

"...Satan..."

That dude is so creepy lol

Yeah he's kinda childish, I mean, they are REALLY into being totally black. But I think they are exaggerating alot just to keep their image going. He is a 100% regular guy in real life(some of them are criminals though, rape and violience, but apart from that Gorgoroth seems like a regular nice guys).

Personally I think dead sheeps, fires, spikes, leather and corpse paint is freakin cool! I LOVED their concert and the way they looked, most people thinks this is kinda childish though biggrin.gif There are very few bands like gorgoroth actually. Even if they might be a bit childish sometimes, their music is so unbelievable and they are amazing live.

are you saying they used dead sheep in their act? just have no respect for anyone who kills an animal for other than food, or if the animal is creating such a problem that you have no choice (and where trapping and release is not possible). even if the sheep was intended for food, this took it out of the food supply, so the animal died for nothing if that was the case. however, I am not sure if you are saying that.

on the music, some of these bands have a nice sound, and although not much in the way of variety generally. the vocals are nothing but comic relief, and will probably provide that for a decade or so.
