Gaahl's tenure in Gorgoroth officially ended in 2007 when he assisted bassist King ov Hell in attempting to fire founding member Infernus. This began the Gorgoroth name dispute.
This dispute was concluded in March 2009 when a court ruling decided Inferus was the rightful user of the band name, and it was ruled that Gaahl and King had excluded themselves upon attempting to remove Infernus in October 2007.
Gaahl retired from metal music in July 2009. Despite having claimed to be working on lyrics both during and after the name dispute for an album that was supposed to be released under the name God Seed but was ultimately released under Ov Hell, he lacked enthusiasm and so decided to retire.

Gorgoroth. Only through guitarist and founder Infernus though. Marilyn Manson is not a Satanist, and is simply a shock rocker. Former Gorgoroth members Gaahl and King ov Hell similarly worked for shock value.
Gaahl (gorgoroth, goodseed) does not claim to be a satanist. In one of his interviews he stated that he does not worship Satan, he is his own god and his own Satan. He rejected the church of Satan considering it to be a place for weaklings to gather like rats. He also stated that Anton LaVey and his followers are pathetic and that it was a waste of breath discussing about them. Although gaahl has been seen around with inverted crosses and open opposition to Christianity. He supports church burnings.
Usually only ones in blackmetal bands, like that guy Gaahl from Gorgoroth. Black Sabbath's members are thought to be satanic as well but there a huge amount of actual 'real' rockstars that are. They make the best music to!
