BEHEMOTH unleash the first spell from their upcoming new opus

The Polish legends BEHEMOTH unleash the first single from their upcoming 13th album, entitled “The Shit ov God” (‘TSOG’).
The album is about to be released on May 9th via Napalm Records and is already available for pre-order at the following link: https://bit.ly/4ayuRg9.

2.5 years after their last album “Opvs Contra Natvram”, the Polish Kings of Blackened Death Metal return with the pounding, utterly grim and striking title track of their highly anticipated next album.

This time around, BEHEMOTH are leading their legions back to a much more raw and in-your-face sound, which will make its crushing live debut on their April pre-release tour.

For over three decades, Behemoth has represented radical extremes, and their new work takes this to the next level: eight tracks delving into humanity, divinity, and rebellion—provocative and intense like never before.

Nergal on the new album:
“We chose this provocative title deliberately, rejecting subtlety in favor of a direct and polarizing statement. It’s a defiant plunge into the depths, daring to seek the absolute even in the gutter.
I’ve reached a point in Behemoth’s journey and my own creativity where words and statements mean less and less. The true essence of who we are and what we stand for lies in our music, our art, our visuals, our sounds, our performances, and the ways we connect with you. I deeply believe Behemoth represents transcendent, timeless art.
The number thirteen—so magical and significant. If this were to be our final album, I could say I die a proud man. Without a shadow of a doubt, this is the most refined, purest representation of Behemoth. No filler, no excess—just the very best we have to offer, handed to you. Hail Satan”

“The Shit Ov God” was produced by Jens Bogren of Fascination Street Studios (Emperor, Enslaved, Kreator, Rotting Christ, etc.), while the visuals for the record were created by Bartek Rogalewicz (BLACK.LODGE.IS.NOW) as well as Dark Sigil Workshop.

In addition to the record, Behemoth, Satyricon, and Rotting Christ will hit the road across Europe next April for their Unholy Trinity tour. The tour kicks off on April 4 at the Gasometer in Vienna and wraps up on April 27 at the O2 Universum in Prague. Get the full list of dates below and get your tickets here.
