According to BW&BK sources, Nick Barker (ex-DIMMU BORGIR, CRADLE OF FILTH, TESTAMENT) will play drums on Gorgoroth's upcoming tour across Europe beginning November 2007. In addition to Nick, guitarist Teloch (NIDINGR, UMORAL, 1349) will again return to Gorgoroth's live assault, while guitarist Sykelig completes the group's 2007 live line up. Rehearsals for the European tour will begin in Gorgoroth's home town of Bergen, Norway beginning this week.

As previously reported, Gaahl and King, who are embroiled in a legal dispute with former guitarist Infernus, have enlisted none other than Hellhammer (MAYHEM, Dimmu Borgir) to join them on drums beginning in 2008.

I personally think getting rid of nick barker was the worst thing they ever did. The last album is absolutely sh**. Even watching those new songs live is terrible. And hellhammer is still going to be playing for gorgoroth in 2008. Nick is possibly doing 1 tour

Agreed, exhibit_666. Seeing Barker playing live with the so-called Gorgoroth that we are being told to accept will go some way to making up for no Infernus, but he's no long term fix - and neither is Hellhammer.
