The Gods don `t seem to be good with GOREFEST when it comes to touring. Again there will be no live shows by the Dutch guys. Metallysee Agency has shortly announced the cancellation of this year`s X-MASS FESTIVALS. This concerns not only Dutch Death Metal legend GOREFEST who have quite a history with cancelled tours now, but also BELPHEGOR. GOREFEST-guitarist Frank Harthoorn explains: "Ever since SIX FEET UNDER pulled out of this tour a couple of months ago, this has been a bit of an ongoing mess. We thought we'd stick with the plan, since this would be about the last chance to do some proper touring for “La Muerte” before we hit the studio for the next album. When we heard that headliner TRAIL OF TEARS split up last week, we already kind of felt this one slipping away, so we suggested to Metallysee we'd head out with a couple of the remaining bands.

You know, join forces, cut prices, split the difference and what-not. Metallysee, however, wasn't having any of that, so come the end of 2006 we're looking at three cancelled tours, about 50 cancelled gigs, all within 11 months. That's something, isn't it? Almost looks like that curse Dani Filth put on us back in '94 is finally kicking in. Oh well, worse things happen at sea, I guess. Thankfully, Ed [Warby, drums] and Boudewijn [Vincent Bonebakker, guitar] have come up with some frightfully heavy shit for us to play with. They even wrote some songs as well, so for the next months, we'll be throwing riffs, fills, leads and, well, stuff at each other."
