Behemoth – EVANGELION


Behemoth has just released their 9th studio album entitled EVANGELION. Their best release to date, this brutal, blackened death metal band from Poland is decimating the uninitiated with their ultimate masterpiece. EVANGELION showcases amazingly fast drum beats, wickedly harmonized technical guitar riffs, and intense, guttural growls that spew blasphemous incantations that speak about liberating the self from the manmade concepts such as religion, tradition, and politics.
Behemoth’s new CD has a well defined depth to it’s production, often incorporating atmospheric elements such as eerie screams, crow sound effects, and orchestral keyboard overdubs. Their epic track entitled “Lucifer” incorporates all of these elements into a masterful tribute to the crown prince of Hell.

As to be expected from such a diabolic band, their first video for their head-banging track entitled “Ov Fire And The Void” has already been banned from YouTube. Fortunately for us, Behemoth’s American label, Metal Blade Records, is hosting the complete uncensored video here: http://www.metalblade.com/behemoth/index.html

EVANGELION’s 9 new tracks run a little under 42 minutes in length. The digipack edition will include a bonus DVD with behind-the-scenes footage and expanded artwork. A must for all fans of Behemoth, and lovers of the blackened death metal genre!
