Immortal Returns

Interview with Abbath from "Rock Hard" magazine (2006)

"I" and Immortal are two different stories, to make that clear, once and for all", it [Abbath's voice] croaks out of the phone. "At present I'm rehearsing nearly daily with Armagedda, and Demonaz has already written lyrics for seven songs. We will most probably begin with the recording for the "I" debut this year".

The fire seems to be burning anew.

"More than that. I am composing hard and intensive, as I didn't in the later years. The time out has done me good, my head is clear, my liver is working perfectly again; I'm feeling totally recovered and ready for attack".

Then that's the end of the premature retirement?

"I think of it like Ozzy. His tour in 1995 was called "Retirement Sucks". A good motto, I think".

So then an Immortal reunion is no longer out of the question?

"No!"

Pardon?

"I didn't really want to say it, but I don't give a shit. We will come back, stronger than ever. I've met with Horgh for the first time in over a year. He's built his new house here, right around the corner. In the next few days we will begin to rehearse our old "Blizzard Beasts" classics. I'm already really hot on the idea".

And you're certain we should print that? Then there's no way back...

"I'm a little out of practice, this being my first interview in two years. But somehow feeling good, that it's out now. I?m mostly glad for our fans".

The petty cash rattling should be good again also.

"Don't say that! To clear that up: we're not coming back for the money. If we had been going for the cash, we wouldn't have allowed Immortal to split".

Then only the date is missing.

"Immortal are timeless frost. One year more or less doesn't make a difference. We have all the time in the world".

i almost saw immortal in early 2002 on sons of northern darkness tour when i lived in massachusetts, but the show changed to 18+ at the last minute. gay. dont care for black metal much at all, but immortal was the best, and burzum. im sick of emperor and mayhem had some alright songs, but not as much quality material as immortal, even if they were the cheesiest band ever.

Hell fuckin yes!

I don't care what anyone says I love Immortal!

Saw them in 2000.

Never saw Emperor though, but ah yes, that will change after my trip to NYC next month, got my ticket for that back in January.

Immortal was supposed to come here a few years ago with Halfords but his money situation got fucked up or something like that, I dont remember exactly. Testament was supposed to play too. That would have been a good show.
