Gorgoroth.com, the website featuring guitarist Infernus (who recently lost a court battle to former band mates Gaahl and King regarding the use of the GORGOROTH name) have issued the following update regarding the band's recent activities:

"Infernus has now chosen to present his new line-up. This new line-up consists of dedicated and serious musicians with healthy attitudes and personalities, musicians whom he has had the honour of being acquainted with for some years now. Infernus has high hopes and ambitions for his future collaboration with these musicians. Tomas

Asklund (DISSECTION) and Frank Watkins (OBITUARY) should need no further introductions. The work on Quantos Possund Ad Satanitatem Trahunt will continue according to schedule, and rehearsals will begin

in Stockholm in the summer of 2008. In the pre-production stage, Infernus will enlist the help of, among others, Tormentor, who wrote the title tracks of both the Destroyer and Incipit Satan albums. As with the latest album, and the forthcoming albums, they will be released by Regain Records.

As previously stated, the legal proceedings which have already been instituted will continue as planned. Infernus and Regain Records have decided to appeal the decision of the Norwegian Patent Office's 1st department, and this appeal will be independently handled by the 2nd department of the Patent Office. It is important to point out that as long as this matter is under appeal, the current ownership decision is not in any way final. Infernus and Regain are also ready to take the artists formerly known as "The Force Gorgoroth" to court. Seeing as how the 1st department's decision is being appealed, and that the trademark ownership is as yet unresolved, it would be prudent of third parties like record labels, booking agencies and online social networking websites to wait the situation out until a final decision has been reached - this to avoid any future litigations from Infernus and Regain Records."
