Gute Nachrichten für alle, die mit Folk Metal nichts anfangen können und die frisch-freundlichen Kleider von Gaahls Freund nicht anziehen wollen: Der Mann macht wieder Metal. Und den sogar in beinahe frischen Tüchern, denn mit der Reunion von God Seed darf man sich auch auf eine Debüt-Platte namens "I Begin" freuen. Der Silberling soll am 30. Oktober in Europa erscheinen und die Band um King und Gahhl von einer deutlich spirituelleren Seite zeigen. King kommentiert:

"God Seed represents a more spiritual side to us than what Gorgoroth did. God Seed represents the will to grow; the will to be the super man, so to speak. I think it's a suitable name for what we will represent in the future. I am also aware of the fact that we use the word 'God' in the name. It will challenge the weak-minded in the respect that we in the past used the word Satan a lot, but it's all about the same thing. The God within man, and the God within nature. I never believed in a Christian force named Satan. I believe in the God within man."

Auch das Line-Up um die beiden Ex-Gorgoroth Musiker wurde nun bekannt gegeben und weist weitere bekannte Namen auf:

* Tom Cato Visnes (a.k.a. King) - Bass
* Kristian Espedal (a.k.a. Gaahl) - Vocals
* Stian "Sir" Kårstad (Trelldom, Djerv) - Guitar
* Kenneth Kapstad (Motorpsycho) - Drums
* Geir Bratland (Apoptygma Berzerk, Dimmu Borgir [live]) – Keyboards, Noise
* Lust Kilman (Grimfist) - Guitar



Zu den neuen Mitgliedern berichtet King:

"All members of God Seed have been carefully picked for their musical skills and devoted personalities. We aim to release an album which will sound different than what we have done in the past. The new members have been very important for creating a sound that hopefully will come across as unique and defining the new God Seed sound. From this moment, God Seed should not be viewed as a duo anymore, but as a band with six members."

Enjoy.
