A Tour Built on Legacy and Innovation
This isn’t the first time Behemoth has made headlines. The band’s 2024 European tour,“O Father,O Satan,O Svmmer”,was described in a press release as “a monstrous voyage through the continent to perform upon huge outdoor festival stages and selected club shows,accompanied by a wickedly curated lineup of bands. Truly a spectacle not to be missed!” The tour featured special guests like Testament, Gaerea, Pestilence, Uada, Imperial Triumphant, and Unto Others on select dates.
For the 2024 tour, Behemoth tapped Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats drummer Jon Rice to temporarily fill in for longtime drummer Inferno (real name: Zbigniew Robert Promiński), who was unable to perform “due to health issues.” Rice is no stranger to stepping in,having previously subbed for Inferno during Behemoth’s 2022 South American tour with Arch enemy,2017 North American tour with Slayer,and select 2019 headlining dates in Israel and Turkey.
A New Era of Behemoth
Behemoth’s 12th studio album, “Opvs Contra Natvram”, released in September 2022, continues to resonate with fans. the LP was described as “a stark reminder of the rebellion, individuality, and unflinching self-expression that Behemoth’s phenomenal work imbues, shaped by a literary worldview.” The album featured twin cover art available in both black and white, designed by Bartek Rogalewicz of lodge.Black, and was released in an array of physical formats.
