En 2002, le suicide du batteur Steve MacDonald amène à la suspension du groupe, jusqu'à l'annonce de son arrêt en 2004, ainsi que la formation par les membres Luc Lemay et Steeve Hurdle du groupe Negativa (qui publiera un EP en 2006). En 2008, Luc Lemay annonce une réactivation de Gorguts en parallèle. Steeve Hurdle meurt en mai 2012.
