GOD SEED: Pro-shot full concert at Graspop 2013

Bergen`s God Seed has posted in his official facebook page a pro-shot full concert at Graspop Festival, the video with extreme quality is courtesy of the youtube user pas de nom and can be seen below, enjoy!

Norwegian black metal collective GOD SEED will unleash their new full-length this Fall. Entitled I Begin, the record will hit North American shores on October 22 via Indie Recordings. 

For nearly a decade, King ov Hell and Gaahl were key members of the legendary Norwegian black metal band Gorgoroth, with whom they parted ways in 2007. When the pair decided to continue creating music together following the court's conclusion of Gorgoroth's band name dispute, they chose the band GOD SEED in honor of a track on the last Gorgoroth album on which they both appeared, 2006's Ad Majorem Satanhas Gloriam.

In 2009, however, just as Gaahl was set to record vocals for the debut GOD SEED release, he abruptly announced his retirement from metal. With an album's worth of music already recorded, King quickly regrouped and recruited Dimmu Borgir vocalist Shagrath -- but instead of releasing 2010's acclaimed The Underworld Regime under the GOD SEED moniker, King felt it more fitting to give the reconfigured group its own name: Ov Hell.

Earlier this year, though, Gaahl ended his metal hiatus, and GOD SEED was resurrected. To whet fans' appetites, the group released a well-received live CD/DVD of their headlining performance at the 2008 Wacken Open Air festival, which became the first-ever release under the GOD SEED name. Still, fans began counting the days until the pair would unite to write and record new material together.

Finally, that day has arrived. Featuring King and Gaahl firing on all cylinders, GOD SEED's debut studio album, I Begin, was one of the most anticipated black metal releases in recent memory. Several years in the making, was harnessed the viciousness of the musicians' pasts while also pointing toward a hellfire-bright future ahead.

The will to grow. The god within man.

The god within nature, and the will to reach one's highest potential.

I Begin.

GOD SEED Premieres "Alt Liv" Video

Today Metal Injection offers up the official North American premiere of GOD SEED’s “Alt Liv” video. Produced by Mats Willassen in the depths of the Norwegian wilderness, “Alt Liv” comes off the band’s recently released I Beginfull-length and truly encompasses the ambiance and spirit of the track.

Check it out at THIS LOCATION.

Additionally, the video is being premiered at Metalhammer.co.uk in the UK, Metal-hammer.de in Germany and VS-webzine.com in France!

Among the most anticipated black metal releases in recent memory, I Begin was unleashed stateside on October 22 through Indie Recordings and continues to earn hails and horns domestically and abroad. Revolver commends the album in a 4/5 review saying: “Rather than put out more Burzum-influenced black-metal backwash, they’ve interpolated elements of gloom-rock, prog, and even experimental electronics into their classic-black collages, and, as improbable as it may seem, the variety works,” About.com notes: “The craving to experiment is obvious throughout, with warm vintage tones clashing with icy avant-hues. Yet the album’s adventurousness never obscures its pitch-black heart; GOD SEED ensures the frosty assault of black metal is accentuated in any eccentric diversions,” while Blistering adds: “You couldn't necessarily find the GOD SEED dudes at fault for wanting to continue down the (left-hand) path walked during their time with Gorgoroth, yet I Begin will enter the win column because of its unpredictable nature. In essence, the ‘70s vibe put out coalesces with the bleak and bloody black metal of Gorgoroth's ‘00s output, and when you stop to compare the respective albums, is probably better than what Gorogorth was putting out a decade ago.” Exclaim agrees: “I Begin is an ambitious and powerful debut, which builds on the foundation of the band members' notable pedigrees, but is also not content to rest on those laurels, pushing beyond the comfort zone of their rasping, bombastic black metal past into something more intricate.”

The album’s first single, “This From The Past,” premiered via esteemed music portal, Pitchfork. If you missed it, check it out HERE. GOD SEED is currently on the Creatures From The Black Abyss Tour 2012 alongside Cradle Of Filth.
