Original news, posted on 13.03.2009
Blabbermouth is reporting that Gorguts, the acclaimed technical death metal band from Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada, have reportedly reformed with a brand new lineup and are currently working on material for a new studio album. Four songs are said to have already been completed, with several more on the way.
Gorguts' current lineup is reportedly as follows:
Luc Lemay (Negativa) - Vocals, Guitar
Kevin Hufnagel (Dysrhythmia, While Heaven Wept, Byla, Euclid Street, The Fifth Season, Grey Division Blue) - Guitar
Colin Marston (Dysrhythmia, Behold... The Arctopus, Byla, Krallice, Indricothere) - Bass
John Longstreth (Dim Mak, Origin, The Red Chord, Skinless, Possession, Angelcorpse) - Drums
Gorguts' last studio album, "From Wisdom to Hate", was released in 2001.
UPDATE
Quick update. This week, Gorguts did a few live shows, together with Krallice and Portal, on the opening dates of Bloody Panda's North American tour. The band confirmed they're working on a new album but won't hit the studio until "late fall" or "Christmas". A fan-recorded live version of a previously unreleased song, with the simple working title, "Number Three" can be found on YouTube.

Pain Of Salvation - Lifting Their Tour Embargo On USA
Vocalist Daniel Gildenlöw of Pain Of Salvation has posted the following blog after Barack Obama's inauguration:
"We congratulate the people of USA on the Inauguration of their new President. We have waited for this day a long time, as have most of the world. Obama continually strikes us as the bravest and most promising US president that modern times have seen, and we nod our heads in agreement and respect for some of the things he expressed in his speech. Thus, with Barack Obama, in that very speech, offering an open hand to those willing to unclench their fists, Pain of Salvation will be first in line to offer our unclenching.
Therefore, let it be known that on the 20th of January 2009, after almost five years, Pain of Salvation are officially lifting their political embargo on USA. Our position on border control finger print scanning remains unchanged, and we will keep fighting against it and do what we can to oppose and fight it; but today we see an American nation of hope and want of change, and good should be met with good. Hence, we reach out to accept your hand. Not unconditionally, because real love is demanding: something to work on every day. But with our deepest and most sincere hope for a new start."
