This is Abbath playing "One by One" from his Immortal days and their 2002 album, Sons of Northern Darkness at the Heavy Montreal in Quebec, Canada on August 8th, 2015.
King Ov Hell is actually one of the most active and coolest looking bass players ever seen on stage and I totally disagree with people whining on how he should stand back. Every single member of a band has its importance lol
It's a bit shit what everyone's talking about King in my opinion, this is just a place for him. I mean, the dude is enjoying the show, he just loves playing the music he loves with his friends, don't think Abbath is even a bit mad at him for his energetic performance.
So I see Abbath has a 2nd guitar player in the band. I always thought he was in trios where he was the only guitarist. I must admit, having a 2nd guitarist definitely thickens up the overall sound.
Actually I'm quite saddened about King's departure, at first I tot he looks quiet but judging from the live performance he seems full of energy like abbath.
+Rafael de Aquino He does use his voice in an exceptional way. Tons of variety. Student of the Complete Vocal Technique -school? But the best? Hmm.. need to think on this one.
Nice, but this year in Essen, GER it was the best and fastest version i have ever heard or i ever could imagine and it was great. like all Immortal covers this evening. Heil the mighty Ravendark
he didn't leave Immortal....he tried to get it back together but the other bandmates have their own lives their families and couldn't practice as much as Abbath wanted to. So recruited King and Creature to form ABBATH.
Abbath tried to do the same shit King ov Poser and Gaahl attempted on Gorgoroth with the same results; tried to get the Immortal name's ownership and lost the trial.
Yes the band is named *Abbath* and has two members, Abbath ex-Immortal and King Ov Hell ex-Gorgoroth I asked King about the band and members. "The band has only been Abbath and I so far. We are testing people to end up with the perfect ones. Hence we still have Creature on drums and the session guitar (Per Valla) did just 6 shows with us and didnt play on the album" - King in Dec 2015
