BEHEMOTH: To Play Entire “The Satanist” On Upcoming Tour

Polish death/black diviners BEHEMOTH have announced to perform their critically acclaimed current album, “The Satanist”, in its entirety on the band’s upcoming European run in early 2016.

BEHEMOTH also plan to bring a brand new exhibition concept, “The Congregation”, on tour. The exhibition will be dubbed “A symbiosis of Behemoth and Toxic Vision” and will showcase the collaborative work between the two parties.

Toxic Vision is the artist that BEHEMOTH had been working closely with over the past years in terms of stage outfits, music videos, stage/photo props and such. The exhibition is planned to be held in tent, a capsule created to capture an experience on its own and built a solely for this purpose, and was first shown by Toxic Vision (in a similar way) at this year’s installment of renowned Inferno Festival. More info to be announced soon.

Commented band leader Nergal: “We’ve always pushed ourselves very hard trying to reach the highest picks of artistic creativity. This time around we are not only coming back to perform »The Satanist« in its entirety, but are also bringing along a collaboration that’s unheard of! Toxic Vision, renowned and absolutely brilliant artist and designer from Canada whom we have worked with on several projects in the past (BEHEMOTH stage gear, video clip costumes…) will be accompanying us on this European trek with a unique exhibition called “The Congregation”! We are beyond excited to see how these synergies coexist! Sharon, it’s an honour to welcome you on board!”

Adds Toxic Vision CEO Sharon Toxic: “It is a real honour to work alongside BEHEMOTH and have this opportunity to bring a vision to life! We aim to dazzle and inspire, I am inviting everyone to step into the dark world of “The Congregation” – an exclusive showcase of my work with BEHEMOTH. Nothing like this has been done before, and of course, nothing is really as it seems with Toxic Vision. This is a culmination of craft and magic … once you step inside, you might never find your way out.”

BEHEMOTH: Release Brand New “The Satanist” Music Video

Behemoth-TheSatanist-video

Polish death/black tank BEHEMOTH have launched a brand new video for the title track from “The Satanist” on the band’s homepage. The video, directed by Andrzej Dragan, is another ambitious and visually striking piece of art from the band that’s known for videos that remain a cut above standard metal music videos.

BEHEMOTH front man Nergal comments: “BEHEMOTH has always been about breaking boundaries, taboos, leaving its comfort zone and thinking out of the box! Here we go again with the brand new video from us. It’s already a fourth official clip off »The Satanist«… The concept came from the director, Andrzej Dragan. It’s situated in modern Warsaw in the present times. It’s where the carnal world meets the unknown… it’s where the ZOS meets KIA… It’s where SACRUM is rapes by PROFANUM…”

Director Andrzej Dragan adds: “This is a picture of alienation and ultimate rejection of an oversensitive character by an anonymous city.”

Watch the video now, exclusively at  http://behemoth.pl/video_splash/.

BEHEMOTH will continue touring Europe in support of »The Satanist« in early 2016.

BEHEMOTH Releases ‘Messe Noire’ Video, Kicks Off European Tour This Week

Behemoth-video

BEHEMOTH recently joined forces with director Zev Deans to compose a video for ‘Messe Noire’ from “The Satanist”, watch it below. The Brooklyn based director brings a visually dark and surreal atmosphere to a song and album that is one of BEHEMOTH‘s most bleak. To add to the atmosphere, costumes were provided by amazing fashion designer, Sharon Toxic. The combination of these visual and auditory talents could not be more ideal.

Director Zev Deans adds: “The story of Lucifer’s fall, followed by his defiant rebirth, reminds me of Nergal’s own personal struggles of recent years. Like Lucifer, Behemoth has recovered from hardship, and they are stronger than ever. With ‘Messe Noire’, I was lucky enough to work with some of the most talented people in the genre. I owe the success of this project to the intense SACRIFICE that Sharon and the rest of team gave to this work.”

BEHEMOTH front man Nergal comments: “It was actually our drummer Inferno’s idea to work with Zev Deans. He showed me a PORTAL video that literally blew my fuckin’ mind! For a long time we’ve attempted to reach a new ground and artistically leave the comfort zone. »The Satanist« is THE record that challenges us on so many levels… and here we are, exploring new grounds with a video producer who is a genuine visionary! The ‘Messe Noire’ video surely adds new quality to our art and makes it even more transcendental… I am proud!”
