BEHEMOTH

Release Year: 2023
Artist Origin: POL
Style: dirty raw thrashing black metal

originally recorded and mixed during December 1995 and January 1996, this expressive and dynamic longplay happened to become a sophomore assault for now legendary Polish black metal blasphemers: not far away removed from the pagan and occult topics in lyrics, this time round - perhaps inspired by the rise of Aura Noir and Nifelheim - they have changed the sound quite drastically towards much thrashier direction, and have chosen dirty and raw production to match these qualities; on the other hand, couple lengthier tunes are more complex and intricate, making it a special, one of a kind Behemoth experience, paying tribute to the nasty unpolished roots of all things metal; recent deluxe German gatefold sleeve double "dust gray" marbled vinyl edition with a massive 24 page booklet, updated artwork and eight rare bonus songs on the second record, including Mayhem, Destruction and KAT covers, rehearsal and live recordings from 1996 and 2021, is limited to 500 units
