 In March 2009 the Oslo City District Court ruled that by doing this, Gaahl and King had instead excluded "themselves" from the band.Following the conclusion of this dispute, he and Gaahl assumed the name God Seed.Following the decision of Gaahl to retire from metal music in July 2009, King dissolved God Seed and formed Ov Hell with Shagrath, using the music he wrote in 2008 that was later intended to be used on the debut God Seed album for the debut album of his new band, with lyrics written by Shagrath.
