Luc Lemay resurrected Gorguts under the advice of Negativa bandmate Steeve Hurdle, when it was decided that Negativa would move in a different direction, rather than being a continuation of the Gorguts sound. An instrumental demo of one of the new songs, consisting of Lemay playing the rhythm guitar part over a click track was leaked onto the internet in December of 2008, after which Lemay confirmed that Gorguts had indeed been reformed.
Drummer Steve MacDonald reportedly hung himself sometime during the 3rd week of October 2002, after battling depression the last few years.
There were plans on behalf of Displeased Records to have the bands' first two releases reissued in 2007, but those plans soon fell through. |
