HOLE IN THE SKY FESTIVAL proudly presents: THE HOMECOMING OF IMMORTAL - May 4, 2007
Needless to say; Hole in the Sky is immensely proud to present Immortal as this year’s headliner. Immortal were the band that kicked of the first Hole in the Sky festival seven years back, and their return to the festival stage is bound to be something out of the ordinary. Not only is Immortal one of the most influential acts to emerge out of the Norwegian metal scene, but they are also one of the most explosive live bands around.
Fans from all over the world sighed with relief when Immortal announced the “7 Dates of Blashyrkh” tour a few months back, seeing the trio headlining massive festivals such as Wacken Open Air after spending the last four years in hiatus.
The organizers were thrilled when the band decided to do this special event on home turf as a bonus to the already announced tour.
Comments Demonaz: "It’s been seven years since Immortal played in Bergen and we look forward to return home with a vengeance. Bergen is of course very special for us, after all it’s our home town. Immortal will do a very special show that will be nothing short of spectacular. The band has planned to do songs from all their albums, including some rare gems for this concert only. Hole in the Sky has become a very important festival over the years and we are proud to headline this event alongside this great selection of bands".
Says the organizers: “We couldn’t think of a better act closing this year’s festival, really. Immortal has it all - their showmanship is second to none, their appeal stretches far beyond the regular metal crowd and their back catalogue is loaded with metal anthems bound to take an audience by storm. The band hasn’t played in their home town for many, many years, so this is going to be nothing less than a triumphant blast for the band and their fans”.

IMMORTAL will headline next year's Inferno Festival in Oslo, Norway - Oct 1, 2006
Official press release
Norway’s IMMORTAL disbanded in 2003, after 13 successful years as one of the pioneers of metal. After a solid break, the band has decided to enter the battlefield again, and what better way to do so than performing a few selected, exclusive concert appearances?
"I needed a break," Abbath says. "I think we all did!" We were simply burnt out, and there was no point in continuing. We had a Norwegian tour booked, and had performed at some great festivals both in the US and Europe, but it just didn’t feel right any longer."
In the meantime, drummer Horgh has released the “Virus” album and toured with Sweden’s death metal masters, Hypocrisy, and Abbath has been working on his sideproject, I, featuring members of Enslaved and Sahg, and the return of Immortal’s original drummer, Armagedda.
"I’m really proud of that album," Abbath states enthusiastically, "and it was an important album to make, in order to be able to focus on Immortal again."Come 2007, the world will see a new ferocious lineup of IMMORTAL, featuring Apollyon from Aura Noir. During Easter the fans will finally get to see the new IMMORTAL live again, headlining the 7th edition of Norway’s Inferno Festival.
"It will be a great show in front of a good mixture of Norwegian fans and people from all over the world. It will be a very special show!" Abbath assures.
2007 will be the 7th edition of the festival, and the dates are April 5-7, 2007Tickets are available as of now.

Reunited IMMORTAL To Headline Next Year's WACKEN OPEN AIR Festival - July 11, 2006
Norwegian black metallers IMMORTAL will reunite for several exclusive shows next year, including the Wacken Open Air festival, which is scheduled to take place August 2-4, 2007 in Wacken, Germany.
A statement from the band reads as follows:
"IMMORTAL are proud to announce that we will headline Wacken in 2007. This will be part of a few selected exclusive shows next year, and Wacken will be the only show in Germany." In a recent interview with Germany's Rock Hard magazine IMMORTAL frontman Abbath — who is in the studio recording the debut album from his new project I — said of the band's reunion plans, "We will come back, stronger than ever. I [recently] met with Horgh [ex-IMMORTAL drummer, curently in HYPOCRISY] for the first time in over a year. He's built his new house here [in Norway], right around the corner. In the next few days we will begin to rehearse our old Blizzard Beasts [1997] classics. I'm already really [excited about] the idea."
Responding to a question about possible accusations that IMMORTAL would only be reuniting to cash in on their former glories, Abbath said, "To clear that up: we're not coming back for the money. If we had been only interested in the cash, we wouldn't have allowed IMMORTAL to split in the first place."
In addition to Abbath, I's current lineup includes original IMMORTAL drummer Armagedda, ENSLAVED guitarist Arve Isdal and GORGOROTH bassist King ov Hell. The band's debut album, which will feature lyrics written primarily by former IMMORTAL guitarist Demonaz, is scheduled for release in November via Nuclear Blast Records.
