The early days only brought forth
a worthless tape and finished off the ensemble for quite some
years,
until it was 2002: a new era and a fresh start resulting into
some demo releases. All this led to an alliance with
the American Black Owl Records bringing out Gorath's debut,
entitled "Elite".
In
2006 Gorath swapped label and signed to Descent Productions.
"The Fourth Era" became a masterpiece
in cosmological black metal, a concept solely based on Mayan
science, history and foretold 2012 prophecies.
From then on Gorath reformed from a one-man-project to a four
piece band. Shows were booked throughout
most West-European countries and the band gained a solid live
reputation.
Two
years later its successor "Misotheism" had given birth
to a whole new concept:
heresy throughout history, mythology, legend and lore.
The album got worldwide positive feedback and the best was yet
to come.
In
2009 Gorath inked a deal with Twilight Vertrieb
and their upcoming opus "MXCII" is about to be released.
Darker than ever before the chants hail the ancient lore, history
and heathen views
about local tradition. Be aware and await the sign. For a great
darkness is coming!
Gorath
played in England, The Netherlands, France, Czech Republic,
Germany, Belgium, Ireland
and shared the stage with Foscor, Watain, Secrets of the Moon,
Darkspace, Belphegor, Mayhem,
Dark Funeral, Shining, Orlog, Dark Fortress, Nazxul, Gallhammer and quite some
more!
