Behemoth Announce 2018 North American Tour in Support of New Album

Behemoth recently wrapped up support on the first North American leg of Slayer 's farewell tour and the next time they return to North America, it will be in a headlining slot. The "Ecclesia Diabolica America 2018 e.v." tour unites Behemoth, Swedish melodic death metal pioneers At the Gates and Cascadian black metal unit Wolves in the Throne Room for a month-long excursion that launches in late October.

"I hereby announce Behemoth's triumphant return to the North American shores this Fall," begins Behemoth frontman Nergal. "We will be in the noble company of At The Gates and Wolves In The Throne Room, who will be supporting us on our 11th opus. Even though it's only been a few moments since we played for you, our American legions, we cannot wait for this tour to start," he exclaims.

Behemoth have finished recording their follow-up to 2015's The Satanist and will release the record in the fall. "It's gonna be the first headlining run supporting new music," Nergal reveals, "and we are bringing all the artillery, which means the biggest production thus far! 'Ecclesia Diabolica America 2018 e.v.' arrives soon and we WANT you to celebrate this sonic pandemonium with us!"

Tomas Lindberg adds, "At The Gates have not done a support tour since 1996. When we got invited to this tour, we immediately saw the logic to the package. This is three bands with their own unique sound, three bands totally dedicated to finding the core of their art — three important bands. It all made sense to us, and we are flattered to be part of this. I truly believe that this is THE ONE tour not to miss this year. Get ready to drink from the night itself together with us."

Check out the list of stops below.

As of now, not much is known about Behemoth's new album. Nergal told Full Metal Jackie that the record is "One of a kind and it’s something that we’ve never done before," but was reluctant to reveal much more. The Polish blackened death metal horde has also been playing a new song, " Wolves ov Siberia ," in concert since May.

BEHEMOTH 's long-awaited follow-up to 2014's "The Satanist" album is tentatively due before the end of the year. The new disc was mixed by Matt Hyde , who has previously worked with SLAYER and HATEBREED , among others.

Back in January, Nergal stated about what fans can expect from the band's next disc: "[2009's] 'Evangelion' was the most perfectly recorded and perfect sounding record, but then 'The Satanist' was something else. The new one is going to be something else once again, I'm sure about it. So when people tell me, 'You need to top 'The Satanist' '… I don't need to top anything. I just want to make sure we take curves with our career. We're gonna take a different direction in order not to get stuck in the same pattern."

BEHEMOTH 's latest release was the live DVD/Blu-ray "Messe Noire" .

Lamb of God, Anthrax, Behemoth, Testament to support Slayer on the North American leg of the band’s final world tour

- January 23rd, 2018 –

Lamb of God , Anthrax , Behemoth , and Testament , all bands who have close ties to and have shared the stage multiple times with the band over the years, will accompany Slayer on leg one, North America, of what will be its final world tour. The trek starts May 10 when a 26-date odyssey will have them crisscrossing the country, from San Diego to Toronto, Orlando to Minneapolis. Tickets go on sale to the public this Friday, January 26; log onto slayer.net for all ticketing info.

“ If you are lucky enough to be invited to play even just once with living legends like Slayer, it’s an incredible honor. Slayer gave Lamb Of God our very first two overseas shows. Slayer has subsequently taken us on several full-length tours, both at home and abroad. The guys in Slayer and their crew have also always been very, very cool to our band. It is irrefutable that Slayer helped create the genre of aggressive metal, and all modern bands of that ilk owe them a huge debt – I know we do. To be asked to be a part of their final tour – well, it just makes you stop and realize just how lucky you are. Hail Slayer! We’ll see you on the road… ” – Randy Blythe, Lamb Of God

“ It’s truly an honor to be on Slayer’s final tour, ” said Anthrax ‘s Frank Bello. “ Anthrax and Slayer have toured together for decades, we are family, band and crew, so we want to help give Slayer the best send-off possible, and to have one last blast with our friends. But you know, at the end of the day, Slayer will never die. “

“ Well, well, well…the dream comes true AGAIN it seems. Behemoth will be teaming up with mighty Slayer again for another extensive American run later this year! Nothing short of epic if you ask me! I cannot wait to confront American legions again before we unleash the new record. One of the biggest metal tours this year: Testament, Behemoth, Anthrax, Lamb Of God and Slayer. Can you miss it out? FUCK NO! ” – Nergal, Behemoth

“ Sharing the stage with Slayer once again is going to be an honor, and to be a part of the final tour is going to be a special privilege for us. Slayer has influenced so many aggressive bands in their career. This tour will be an epic time for all who attend. Do yourself a favor and clear your calendars when this show comes to town. This will be your last chance to see a tour like this. Get ready North America for the devastation. ” – Chuck Billy, Testament

Dates for Slayer ‘s final world tour, leg one, North America, are as follows:

Concert review: behemoth @ keybank pavilion//knotfest roadshow 8/23/19 — burgettstown, pa.

Slipknot embarked on a six-week long tour around North America and brought Polish extreme black metal blasphemers Behemoth along with them for the ride. Knotfest Roadshow 2019 was without a doubt the summer’s heaviest-hitting metal festival tour. I was fortunate enough to be approved to photograph Behemoth and all three of the other bands on the lineup. Continue reading below for full concert review. All images copyright and courtesy of Andy Jillson.

Slipknot struck metal gold by having Behemoth as the opening act on the tour. Behemoth was one hell of a way to kick off a heavy metal show. Their live performance, visuals, and stage theatrics were stunning. The show I attended was at Keybank Pavilion in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania on August 23, 2019. This was my first time at the venue and my first time seeing Behemoth perform live.

I had been looking forward to seeing Behemoth for some time and it was worth the wait. Behemoth took the stage at 5:30pm and the crowd instantly rose to their feet upon first sight of the band. They played as if they were the headliners and their fans were obsessively head-banging, fist-pumping, and losing their minds during the entire set. The music just kind of makes you want to rock out.

The bands set began with “Wolves ov Siberia” and fan favorites “Daimonos” and “Ora Pro Nobis Lucifer.” As I entered the photo pit I was immediately struck by the sounds of a satanic ritual. I can’t say I have ever photographed a band that is labeled as being satanic (for real satanic). Theatrics aside, Behemoth is a great band and all the musicians are uniquely talented individuals and their performance on Knotfest Roadshow proved it. Other brutal songs that rounded out Behemoth’s setlist included; “Bartzabel,” “Conquer All,” “Sabbath Mater,” and “Chant for Eschaton 2000.”

Frontman Adam “Nergal” Darski was so much fun to photograph. His stage presence was dark and commanding. He stocked the stage and demanded attention from the crowd. This guy shreds guitar, wails into the microphone, and plays with fire all while looking quite menacing and nightmarish. I was lucky to able to take several great shots of him in such a short amount of time.

As you have seen by now, at one point during the show Nergal appeared proudly wearing an evil looking HR Giger-esque pope hat aka a mitre. A mitre is a ceremonial head-dress traditionally worn by bishops and abbots in certain forms of Christianity. However, Nergal’s religious head-dress was covered with upside-down crosses and images of an inverted/crucified Jesus. It was rather beautiful and stunning (if you can open your mind and realize that it’s art). Yeah, it may appear to be somewhat shocking and/or offensive, but I found it be to be fascinating and light-hearted. Of course, that was just my initial impression. I’m not a Christian or a Satanist so I’m sure that changes my view quite a bit.

Behemoth’s current lineup consists of Adam “Nergal” Darski (lead vocals, guitar), Zbigniew “Inferno” Promiński (drums), Tomasz Wróblewski (bass, backing vocals), and Patryk Dominik Sztyber (guitar, backing vocals). The bands most recent release is 2018’s, I Loved You at Your Darkest . This is Behemoth’s 11 th studio album, and like its predecessor, The Satanist , was met with universal acclaim among music critics.

If you are a fan of heavy music and have not heard or seen Behemoth, I would highly suggest you check them out. This band gives all other metal bands something to fear and respect. Behemoth have been continuously changing and progressing as band, and they deserve a nod from all musicians, music fans, and music critics. Do yourself a favor and go rock out with the legions at a Behemoth show near you! All hail Behemoth!!!

Behemoth announce fall 2018 North American headlining tour with support from At the Gates

Polish metal masters will unleash their 11th studio album this fall

Polish metal masters Behemoth have announced a fall 2018 headlining North American tour, and they’re bringing highly influential Swedish metal veterans At the Gates  with them. The jaunt will also feature American act Wolves in the Throne Room .

The trek, dubbed the “Ecclesia Diabolica America 2018 e.v.” tour, will be in support of Behemoth’s upcoming 11th album, due out this fall. The extreme metal act recently supported  Slayer on the spring North American leg of the thrash legends’ ongoing farewell tour, but frontman Nergal is excited for his band to keep trekking stateside this fall.

“I hereby announce Behemoth’s triumphant return to the North American shores this fall,” declares Nergal. “We will be in the noble company of At the Gates and Wolves in the Throne Room, who will be supporting us on our 11th opus.  Even though it’s only been a few moments since we played for you, our American legions, we cannot wait for this tour to start! It’s gonna be the first headlining run supporting new music and we are bringing all the artillery, which means the biggest production thus far! ‘Ecclesia Diabolica America 2018 e.v.’ arrives soon and we WANT you to celebrate this sonic pandemonium with us!”

At the Gates, whose brand of melodic death metal in the early ’90s had a major influence on the metalcore scene to follow, will be serving as an opening act for the first time in more than two decades.

“At the Gates have not done a support tour since 1996,” explains frontman Tomas Lindberg. “When we got invited to this tour, we immediately saw the logic to the package. This is three bands with their own unique sound, three bands totally dedicated to finding the core of their art. Three important bands.

Behemoth will return to North America this Autumn Due to their ' Ecclesia Diabolica America E.V. Tour ' with At The Gates and Wolves In The Throne Room.

All three bands will soon be launching a portal to hell at Aztec Theatre on Tuesday, October 23, 2018.

Poland's intense metal masters Behemoth also have teased the details of the forthcoming 11th album.

The disc, named I Loved You at Your Darkest, will see the world on October 5 th later this fall.

"It's more rock-oriented than any other Behemoth record," says frontman Nergal

Those attending can expect to hear songs from Behemoth's coming new record with the group's frontman Nergal quoted as saying.

"I hereby announce Behemoth‘s triumphant return to the North American shores this fall. We will be in the noble company of At The Gates and Wolves In The Throne Room, who will be supporting us on our 11th opus."

Hot off their stint playing service on Slayer's farewell tour, Behemoth may even play 24 dates across the United Kingdom and Europe in ancient 2019 in support of their forthcoming record I Loved You At Your Darkest.

The shows will kick off at Frankfurt's Batschkapp on January 10 and wrap up with a performance in the QMU in Glasgow on February 11.

“We hope to see our UK legions to join those libations and celebrate magick and musick with us! Hail Satan!”

Talking about the UK leg of this tour, vocalist and guitarist Nergal said:

“Albion! It is with the utmost thrill we are announcing our triumphant return to your shores with the new music, new production and new strength!”

Polish metal band, Behemoth formed in October 1991 in Gdansk, and until 1992, performed under the name "Baphomet". In the beginning, they worked mainly as the black metal group, but after 1994, Behemoth changed the whole idea and became closer to the pagan metal. Subsequently, the band began to perform death-metal, leaving the pagan subject in favor of occultism, as well as the mythology of the Middle East. 

The continuous leader of the collective since 1991 is the main composer and author of the texts Adam Nergal Darski. During the concerts, the band act with characteristic black and white make-up and use specific costumes. Throughout Behemoth’s history, the group released ten studio albums, the latest of which is ‘The Satanist’, which hit the world on May 31, 2013, via Nuclear Blast and Metal Blade; LP took fourth place on the US Top Hard Rock Albums chart by Billboard.

Latest album information

Released in February 2014, "The Satanist" marked the Behemoth's 10th studio album and a follow-up to 2009's "Evangelion." In 2010, frontman Adam "Nergal" Darski was diagnosed with leukemia, and this record is his triumphant return to the world of music. Dark, enigmatic, thunderous, exciting, yet true to the band's tradition and heritage, it was universally hailed as a masterpiece and one of the finest metal efforts of the decade. Every aspect of artistic expression from music to artwork to videos accompanying the effort are a part of a grand story that climaxes with the album's final song "O Father O Satan O Sun!" This is a story that goes beyond extreme metal, this is a piece of Darski's very being. On the technical side, the album features a set of nine songs clocking in at just under 45 minutes. It was released via Nuclear Blast Records with several individuals at the helm of production - the band themselves, Daniel Bergstrand, Wojciech Wieslawski, and Slawomir Wieslawski. The effort was recorded between February and June of 2013 at two studios in Poland - Hertz Studio in Bialystok and RG Studio in Gdansk.

Bands members and the origin

Behemoth is the brainchild of frontman, vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Adam "Nergal" Darski, who is the only original member of the band's current lineup and the only musician who was in Behemoth throughout its existence since 1991. If we count musicians who were hired for live concerts only, the group has a list of over 10 former members, but the core of the act has been operating as a three-piece since 2003 featuring Nergal, Zbigniew "Inferno" Prominski on drums and on Tomasz "Orion" Wroblewski on bass and backing vocals.  Additionally, Patryk "Seth" Sztyber has been the band's session and live member since 2004, taking up the position of a second guitarist and backing singer. As noted, the group was founded in 1991, producing music as a three-piece and focusing on traditional black metal style with what was described as "heathen" lyrical content. They soon shifted to mystic and occult themes, while infusing their sound with elements of death metal to ultimately forge their blackened death metal brand of extreme music. The band's goal was always expanding the horizons of listeners with taboo topics and delving into domains of the occult and satanic.

Typical performance and style

In addition to the aforementioned blackened death metal musical style, Behemoth is known for quality musicianship and controversial black metal image. Their live concerts heavily rely not just on quality sonic delivery, but on unifying the elements of music with visual parts.  Members of the band always grace the stage with corpse paint and full-blown metal attire, and their performance is accompanied by a light show and a variety of visual effects. Over the years, the band was branded with a variety of musical labels, although Nergal was the first one to discard those. And while "blackened death metal" is a concise way of summing Behemoth up, their music, in fact, features a set of elements taken from traditional black metal, death metal, technical death metal, melodic death metal, and even moments of thrash metal.

Behemoth's quick discography

Behemoth have a string of 10 studio albums under their belt, with the latest one being 2014's "The Satanist." Their first record saw its release in 1995 under the title of "Sventevith (Storming Near the Baltic)" and secured the band the position of a torchbearer of Polish fresh underground metal scene. Keeping the black metal spirit as the focal musical point, the band released "Grom" in 1996 and "Pandemonic Incantations" in 1998. With 1999's "Satanica," elements of death metal have reached the group's sonic palette and continued to thrive to this very day. 2004's "Demigod" saw the band making bigger waves in wider circles of the metal community while 2009's "Evangelion" scored them their first No. 1 chart debut in their native Poland. Behemoth are among few bands who started their musical journey 25 years ago to have their latest album hailed as their finest effort to date, which is exactly what is happening with "The Satanist."
