God Seed

In late 2007, Infernus, Gaahl and King Ov Hell fought to keep the rights to Gorgoroth. With the court recognizing Infernus as the owner of the Gorgoroth name in 2009, Gaahl (vocals) and King Ov Hell (bass) officially took the name God Seed that same year. The project was thus abandoned and King Ov Hell went off to found Ov Hell. It was only in 2012 that the two musicians reactivated the band with Kenneth Kapstad (drums - Thorns, Khonsu), Sir (guitar), Lust Kilman (guitar) and Geir Bratland (keyboards - Dimmu Borgir, The Kovenant). A Live At Wacken, recorded in 2008 at the time when the musicians were disputing the Gorgoroth name, was released on Indie Recordings in 2012. The first proper album, I Begin, came out at the end of the year on that same label.
