Wardruna, which features two former members of Gorgortoh - specifically, Gaahl and Kvitrafn - have released a new video, for the track (I wouldn't call it a song, exactly) "Løyndomsriss," and if you've ever had a desire to watch three-and-a-half minutes of underexposed blue footage of dudes doing nothing particularly interesting, well then boy oh boy, [...]

What does Bastions guitarist, Jamie McDonald, have in common with Gaahl, the grim gay icon of Black Metal? They're both men of very few words, for starters. If you could have Christmas dinner with any 6 people, who would you invite? Henry Rollins, Jacob Bannon, Gaahl, Wes Eisold, Ben Phillips and Phil Anselmo. I like [...]

I don't know what, if any, kind of persecution Gaahl has faced since coming out, but even if he's been met with nothing but kindness and tolerance, I'd imagine he's aware of the poor treatment homosexual receive all over the world. I mean, he met his partner, modeling agent Dan DeVero, approximately a year and [...]

Earlier this month, our friends over at Terrorizer magazine released 'The Secret History of Black Metal' - promising fresh insights to metal's evilist offshoot. Hugh Platt cornered Louise Brown , Editor of Terrorizer, to get the inside scoop. Surely Black Metal's "been done" by now? Louise Brown: "Not by me! [laughs] It's has been done but the last book that was written on it in any depth that had a lot of press, that [...]

So I've been living in the UK for about four months now, and have managed to take in quite a lot of this "culture" thing they're so fond of over here. I've been to nine countries, eight major metal festivals, and a handful of cities in Ol' Blighty itself; I've gate-crashed hotel parties in Norway [...]

After guitarist Ryan Caddell left Marasmus a few months ago, the group scrapped most of its existing recordings. Only "Casket Made of Ivory" remains on its MySpace page. Fortunately for fans, that lo... Continue reading "None So Vile: Marasmus" >

MS Maniac Kye has alerted us to the fact that Gorgoroth's official website has posted an update regarding the long-brewing Gorgoroth naming rights battle, in which Gaahl and King ov Hell attempted to trademark the Gorgoroth name shortly before quitting the band. And.... the verdict has come down in favor of Infernus: Oslo City District Court [...]

Metal is still afraid of The Big Bad Evil Gay. In metal, coming out of the closet is akin to losing your luxurious locks ... maybe it's no small coincidence that Rob Halford is both openly gay and openly bald. Not much has changed since Halford came out more than a decade ago. Metal-a style of music built around "taboos"-is one of the only genres that still keeps its distance from anything gay. Hasn't metal always been about going against the grain? Disdain for Christian values? Sticking it ... um ... to the man? [...]

• Skid Row - Delivering the Goods [Live]

So words like pagan, heathen and folk get thrown around in metal pretty indiscriminately and most of the time bands who describe themselves thus usually don't have more barbarian blood than what I've got circulating in my foreskin. Now this Wardruna project, masterminded by ex-Gorgoroth drummer Einar Kvitrafn and featuring vocals from the big gay anti-Christ [...]

Thanks to MetalSucks Maniac George M. for the best belated holiday gift ever. Related posts: GAAHL, PRE OUTING. THE VERY OPPOSITE OF PUPPIES. (16) IN WHICH WE WORSHIPPED............. SATAN. (0) GAAHL IS GAY. OFFICIALLY. (53) GAAHL IS GAY? (87)

The Infernus -led lineup of Gorgoroth has announced that they have enlisted former vocalist Pest to take the place of the infamous Gaahl . As to which version of the band gets to keep the Gorgoroth name, we have to wait until January for the court case to be decided. Read more: http://www.regainrecords.com/v iewItem.php?id=325

I am bat-shit obsessed with this Puppy Cam. I've literally had it open in a tab in my browser for days now (apparently 14,858 people do too) and I check it hourly. Currently two of the puppies are scrapping with each other. Earlier, momma came in and they all fed from her teets, and right [...]

More on the fallout of Gaahl 's coming out: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.c om/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx? mode=Article&newsitemID=108148

The Phillies won the World Series, it's Halloween, and we have a U.S. presidential election coming up in less than a week. But what's happening in metal is obviously way more important: Living Colour ruled. As always. Mastodon announced the title and tracklisting of their new album. We spoke with Cynic's Paul Masvidal and Today Is the Day's [...]

So after "metalsucks," "metal sucks" and "metalsucks.net," "gaahl gay" is now the most common search phrase bringing people here from search engines. So, uh... You guys will probably think it's a big deal that Gorgoroth frontman Gaahl (né Kristian Espedal) has finally officially spoken on the record about his sexual orientation in a recent interview [...]

It's official: Gaahl of Norwegian black-metal act Gorgoroth is out of the closet: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.c om/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx? mode=Article&newsitemID=107859

Infamous Norwegian black-metal act Gorgoroth will be going into the studio on August 25 to begin work on a new album. The lineup will be core members Gaahl (vox), King (bass), Frost (drums) plus Teloch and Ice Dale on guitar and Herbrand Larsen ( Enslaved ) in the producer's seat.

Dreaded black-metal warrior Gaahl from the band Gorgoroth is starting a decidedly un-metal fashion line: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.c om/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx? mode=Article&newsitemID=101511

I still can't believe that there was ever a time when people didn't know that Rob Halford was gay - but I'd be lying if I said that the revelation that Gorgoroth front man Gaahl (né Kristian Espedal) "had a close relationship" with modeling agent/fur connosieur Dan DeVero, whom he told "he had strong feelings for," didn't catch me off guard. DeVero and Gaahl will now apparently launch a clothing line for women. And while I'm sure all the trve kultists will get their panties in a twist over the news, I [...]
