Bon, c'est toujours la guerre entre Immortal et Abbath :
Immortal a écrit :IMMORTAL has completed the writing of their ninth full length studio album.
- This will be our darkest and coldest album in a long time: pure Blashyrkh metal the way our fans know it, with massive majestic riffs, grim frostbitten vocals and tales from our mighty realm. Fast and furious tracks, epic tracks and longer playtime than any of our previous albums.
Founding IMMORTAL member, lyricist and guitarist Demonaz is now also handling the vocals.
- The massive fansupport has been very inspiring and we will not let down the fans. The last year we have completed all the new songs and look forward to record our most passionate album in a long time. The songwriting process has been awesome and we are soon ready to start the recordings.
In a time when true and origin Black Metal is nearly dead, the band is in ultimate spirit.
- After the last years incidents it was time to go back to the roots to what this band is really about musically, and also to take the integrity of the band back to where it belongs. Cold, grim uncompromising Blashyrkh metal with a true feeling is what we deliver.
From 2010 until 2014, IMMORTAL wrote all the songs for the successor to "All Shall Fall", but when ex- member Abbath left the band in 2014, he changed the lyrics, song titles and recorded these songs for his so called "solo album".
- We had to focus on making a new album nearly from scratch, which is the main reason why things have taken this much time. We are now looking forward to record the new album and present it to all those who have shown their loyalty and support.
IMMORTAL has always been a unique and unstoppable force, and that goes for our fans as well. We will never change our music or attitude.
The album title and song titles will be revealed soon.

On parle de quarantenaires ou de lycéens ? Il est beau, l'esprit black metal !
I pledge to keep it alive ! I promise: metal will thrive !
I swear myself to the cause ! I'll teach all the metal laws !
J'ai enfin ecoute l'album d'Abbath. Ouais vraiment pas terrible. Le compos sont un peu plate et la prod me derange beaucoup. Je sais pas si c'est le son de gratte trop lisse, la voix mal mixee, bref... Dommage, le personnage me fait bien rire. D'ailleurs il a un esprit bien rock'n'roll, ca m'etonne un peu qu'il continue a jouer de l'extreme. Surtout que les fans de black ont justement ont peu de mal avec son attitude de clown il paraît.
Je suis quand même tres sceptique par rapport a l'album d'Immortal. On verra bien.
Quelque part je pense que le groupe aurait tres bien pu s'arreter pour de bon apres Sons of Northern Darkness, qui etait une belle tuerie. Certes ils ont pu se reformer en beneficiant d'un status "culte" mais si apres c'est pour pondre un album ultra convenu et partir en couille...
Cardinal-Sin a écrit :si l'album solo d'Abbath était censé être le nouvel album d'Immortal ben ça craint quand même, il est quand même bien plat...
Quelque part c'est logique, vu que c'est déjà Abbath qui a composé l'intégralité de At the Heart of Winter et plus récemment de All Shall Fall. Et sans doute l'immense majorité de de Damned in Black et Sons of Northern Darkness, même si Horgh y est également crédité.
Ce qui peut amener à penser que le nouvel album d'Immortal se rapprochera du style initial du groupe, comme annoncé dans leur communiqué, à l'époque où Demonaz composait. Mais comment va-t-il faire pour jouer, alors que même sur son album solo ce n'est pas lui qui joue de la guitare?

Le bassiste d'Abbath se barre du groupe car les thèmes du nouvel album seraient trop "chrétiens"
Bassist King Ov Hell has left the Norwegian black metal band ABBATH.
King, whose real name is Tom Cato Visnes, announced his departure from ABBATH in a post on Facebook.
The post read: "King will no longer be part of ABBATH due to conflicting views on lyrical concepts of the upcoming album. The lyrics are inspired by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung. King finds that Jung's connection to Christian mysticism is incompatible with the image of the band."
King said in the statement: "I wish members of the actual band, label, and crew all the best for the upcoming shows and album. The music itself is nothing short of brilliant. However, I must maintain artistic integrity and respectfully step aside."
ABBATH's record label, Season Of Mist, shared the post and wrote: "ABBATH will soon give an official statement about King's departure. No shows will be cancelled!"
ABBATH is the band led by ex-IMMORTAL frontman Olve Eikemo (a.k.a. Abbath).
