Extreme Polish metal giants Behemoth are taunting their haters with the title of their thirteenth studio album, The Shit Ov God, scheduled to arrive on May 9 via Nuclear Blast Records. Known for their unapologetic and provocative artistry, the band promises their most extreme and incendiary record yet. To celebrate the album announcement, Behemoth have unleashed a video for the title track.
Behemoth will tour Europe on their Unholy Trinity European headline tour alongside Satyricon and Rotting Christ. Tickets are available at this location.
Nergal comments:
“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.”
