Infernus and GORGOROTH were informed this weekend by Regain Records that because of the label's current financial situation, it will once again be necessary for the label to postpone the release of Gorgoroth's upcoming album Under The Sign Of Hell 2011, which was scheduled for release on August 29th.

According to a Gorgoroth update, "the master tapes were handed over to Regain by the band in April this year, and so it is of course very disappointing for the band that the label for the second time is not able to meet the set release date. Therefore, to avoid this happening again, no new release date will be given by the band until Regain can sort out their problems and provide a new date with 100% certainty."

As previously reported, on Under The Sign Of Hell 2011, Pest and Infernus repeat their roles as vocalist and guitarist/bassist, respectively, from the original 1996 recording, while Tomas Asklund does the drums.

The tracklisting is as follows:

'Revelation Of Doom'

'Krig'

'Funeral Procession'

'Profetens Äpenbaring'

'Ødeleggelse og Undergang'

'Blood Stains The Circle'

'The Rite Of Infernal Invocation'

'The Devil Is Calling'

As for the still-untitled next Gorgoroth album, consisting of new material: 66.6 % of the material has now been written, and work on the album is continuing at a steady pace. If all goes according to plan, the album will be recorded later this year.

This fall Gorgoroth will embark on the band's longest tour yet, namely The Sign Of Hell Tour 2011, to promote their latest recording, Under The Sign Of Hell 2011.
