TGIB: THANK GOD IT’S BEHEMOTH
Friday, August 7th, 2009 at 10:00am by Axl RosenbergIt’s Friday! Glory glory hallelujah! Vince and I are at Mayhem today (all posts you read have been autoprogrammed to self-publish), and Behemoth is one of the bands we’re most stoked to check out, in no small part because we think the band’s latest, Evangelion, kicks so much fucking ass.
So here’s the new Behemoth video for “Ov Fire and the Void.” Mostly it’s your typical epically Satanic blackened death metal shit, but it has a cute girl in it (and some not so cute girls) and nudity and it’s been banned from YouTube (oooh scary!) and the song is sweet, so it has all that going for it.
Our own Anso DF just conducted an interview with Nergal; we’ll get that up as soon as the MetalSucks Mansion Monkeys are done transcribing it.

no audio guys…
I was waiting for Dino to Show up and eat the Baby.
Anyways cool video.
lol
salt flats in poland?
Its done again bluescreen or actually its green but anyway you get the point
not sure what you mean but yeah……There are salt mines in poland. Gigantic ones people lived in. Underground cities of them. Whats the question dude?
Fat lady tits!
fap fap fap fap fap
The track is killer. The video is twisted.
Awesome.
Behemoth, Slayer and Cannibal Corpse are the only bands worth checking out.
The rest of the bands would bore the shit out of me, and i’d probably spend a small fortune on booze to compensate.
I wonder what order the bands are playing. If Behemoth, Slayer, and Cannibal Corpse were all three playing one right after the other I’d just leave after seeing them. I’m sure the space between the good bands is padded with all kinds of -core shit, though.
Behemoth and Cannibal Corpse play on the same stage. Cannibal Corpse I think always closes the hot topics stage. Behemoth’s place in the lineup varies from city to city. Anywhere from 2nd to the band right before CC. So if you want to see Behemoth, make sure to get there early just in case.
Slayer is on the main stage, before Manson. Main stage only starts after the other 2 stages are done so no need to worry about missing them unless you pass out beforehand.
Cannibal Corpse is the most boring live band in the history of metal.
No biff that award goes to Slayer.
Yeah, because bands are only cool to watch if they are jumping up and down and moshing on stage and stuff like tr00 br00tal metla bands…right?
No Tommy but Slayer pretty much sucks reguardless.
Yeah, your absolutley right dickhead. Everytime I’ve seen Slayer, the monotony has been unbearable. Everyone just stands there, motionless, because the music is so gentle and soothing. You’re absolutley, unquestionably right, and way cool for saying so.
Now take a big step back – and go fuck your own face!
Ok…Slayer sucks….
These are the same losers who think Load and Reload were good albums and Metallica still kicks tons of ass.
Kids today…I tell ya…Kill em all!
If you don’t like Slayer, you don’t like metal.
Best video I’ve seen in a while. Should help me get through the day at work. With all of their eyes being black, I had to wonder if they are under Mary-Ann’s spell. Check out True Blood if you don’t know what I’m talking about.
Yeah, I was thinking that too. reminded me of the newest true blood episode.
glad I wasnt the only one.
This is my favorite song on the album. Great stuff.
So you guys shelled out the cash to go to a mediocre festival just to see one band play for 30 minutes? Heh. I’m hoping for your sake you got freebie tickets.
I would not go to an all day festival just to see one or even TWO bands, even if they were my favorite.
Having to wait while listening to shit like what is at Mayhem this year would be torture on a level I could not tolerate for any given length of time. Not to mention having to deal with all the retardo kids and dipshit fans would send me into a migraine induced genocidal rage.
Yes the festival sucked dick but behemoth is my favorite band of all time, i would sit through 5 hours of the johnas brothers just to see behemoth for 30 minutes.
This should be in HQ. The sound is terrible.
Cool video though!
Cool video! Sorta creepy good mix of hot and fat naked chicks.
YEA TO BAD THESE GUYS ARE DOUCHE BAGS MET THEM AT MAYHEM 09 IN DENVER EXCEPT FOR THE DRUMMER THEY ARE ALL A BUNCH OF PRICKS
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
this is ferrked erp
Song is brutal but that band dresses sooo gay…and im pretty sure theyre gonna burn in hell.
This woman is so inconsiderate to pee blood on everyone…
ALL HAIL BEEEEEHEEEEEEEEMOOOOOOOOOTH
In my opinion, they put on the best show at my Mayhem Festival stop. Just sucks to see them being over-shadowed by bands like Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, etc.
I cant believe jfac played after them!
I enjoy!
behemoth is fuckin legit theyre too hard. all you gotta say.
song was fucking illllllll
Best music vid I’ve seen in ages.
Fun Vid. Still find this band painfully boring.
No way man…theres nothing boring about this band
Don’t care for the scary looks of the band. Not scary at all to me. I just wan’t to kiss em! ha ha. Music is intence and that video is pretty creepy. Drummer is downright in another league!
Who else laughed their ass during the angel feast scene. It is an awesome video but that who yummy feathers and raw bacon part was a little goofy.
*whole* not who.
I didn’t laugh at it, but I do agree it was a little ridiculous. The vid was pretty dark and sinister until that popped up, then it appeared to be all low budget all of a sudden.
The video interesting but a little too weird for my tastes. Also I really don’t like the way they dress, it just silly. Yeah they are trying to look evil, but it doesn’t work for me. It actually turns me off from their music. Which is I like.
They’re trying so hard to be over-the-top, but when they do so, it just looks pathetic. It’s as if they’re trying to be like Immortal in terms of image, but instead of creating a cinematographic masterpiece such as the video for “Call of the Wintermoon” that both evokes the metal imagery and cheesy cliches of the music, this just looks like they’re trying too hard to be cool and brutal. Plus,, this has none of the charm of that Immortal video.

Also, Behemoth is boring as usual, unlike Immortal.
Who the hell are you to say what they’re trying to do? You ever sit down with Nergal and ask him yourself?
their sound is badass…and talking to them is even better they are a pretty sick ass group of guys <3
“You’re Ziltoit and we don’t give a shit!”
“You live in a basement with a fake rocket ship!”
Ah! Hahaha… I crack myself up.
If you got the syllables to match with the actual lyrics, that might have been funny.
i didnt see your asses there next time were at the the same show im buying you 2 dudes a beer!!!
Fucking beautiful video. I was impressed, as expected.
Clearly the imagery is pure science fiction. Taking it seriously or comparing to Immortal of all things is complete stupidity.
I never compared this video to Immortal. I labeled this an an attempt at being over-the-top like Imortal, but failing miserably at achieving what Immortal did with their videos.
Immortal and Behemoth are quite different. But whatever if I want dark and sinister I’ll put on Neurosis.
HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THAT I WAS NOT COMPARING BEHEMOTH AND IMMORTAL MUSICALLY?????????
Seriously, this is getting annoying. Lrn 2 read plz.
Calm down trve kvlt warrior.
I find Behemoth to be genuinely frightening as far as imagery and dress is concerned. Granted I’m not much for the black death metal sub-genre, but they make dimmu and cradle (even though they are the most widely recognized of their peers) look like cartoons by comparison.
Ehhhh I’m not too big into Behemoth, I respect their drummer but whatever.
YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPARE BEHEMOTH AND IMMORTAL MUSICALLY BUT YOU CAN CERTAINLY COMPARE THEM IN ONE WAY: THEY’RE BOTH 100% WACK-ASS BANDS INTENDED FOR BED-WETTING LOSERS AND NORTHERN EUROPEANS.
IF YOU FIND BEHEMOTH GENUINELY FRIGHTENING YOU HAVE A LOT TO LEARN ABOUT EVOLUTION YOUNG LAD.
SOMEONE MENTIONED NEUROSIS. NOW THAT IS A PROPER BAND. ME AND HAWKINS LIKE TO CRANK THAT SHIT RIGHT UP, SPLIT A REEF AND PONDER THE NATURE OF THE UNIVERSE AND WHATNOT.
HEAVY SHIT INDEED BITCHES.
P.S. WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THAT NERGAL BITCH? MOTHERFUCKER’S GOT SOME SERIOUS BALDNESS DENIAL ISSUES.
