When they burst on the scene in the early nineties, Gorguts quickly garnered massive respect and popularity due largely in part to their excellent musicianship and dedication to the Death Metal underground. Unfortunately, even though the band had put out two well received albums, Gorguts still fell victim to Roadrunner records "house cleaning" in 1996.


Undaunted by this temporary setback, founding member Luc Lemay began writing material for Gorguts' ground-breaking release : "Obscura". The reaction to "Obscura" was one of utter fascination. Nothing like that had ever been attempted in the realms of Metal. Touring followed : the few non believers were quickly converted after seeing Gorguts reproduce the sounds made on "Obscura". Now the wait is over; after two years the public will again be amazed at the complexity of a full length Gorguts symphony : "From Wisdom To Hate". This time around the songs are just as intense in feel, but more memorable in structure. Once again Gorguts will display their abilities in person when touring begins in 2001. "From Wisdom To Hate" shows that there were many doors not opened on "Obscura" : this is the next journey of innovation and imagination, where a new level of extremity will be attained.
