Behemoth, the Polish black metal pioneers, have announced their upcoming 13th studio album, 'The Sh*t Ov God', set for release on May 9 via Nuclear Blast Records. The title track, which can be streamed now, reflects the band's commitment to a provocative and polarizing approach with bold statements about their artistry. Nergal, the band's frontman, suggests that this album represents a refined version of Behemoth, utilizing the talents of notable producer Jens Bogren and long-time collaborators for visuals. This record emphasizes the significance of their journey and creativity in the world of extreme metal, marking a milestone for the band.
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.
The number 13 - 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.
