HEY, NERGAL: LOOK-IN’ GOOD!!!

Tuesday, October 11th, 2011 at 1:30pm by

From the “News So Good I Still Can’t Believe it’s True” department: Behemoth played their first show since Nergal was diagnosed with, and subsequently defeated, leukemia last year. And while no one from the MetalSucks staff was there, because none of us live in Poland and what are we, made outta money?, but a Polish reader did e-mail us to say “Nie wierzę, że to nie jest masło!” which I think translates to “IT WAS GREAT!” And the pics and cell phone vids that have emerged suggest that the band returned with full mother-effin’ force.

You can check out said pics over at Metal Injection; I’ve posted some videos for ya below and after the jump.

And if you’re really, really good, news about when the band is returning to North American stages might become available soon…

    “Nie wierzę, że to nie masło” translates to “I can’t belive it’s not butter”

    I am speechless and overwhelmed by this man’s courage and will to fight. Nergal truly represents what Metal is about,and I hope my Metal brothers and sisters are as inspired as I am. Together we can stand strong and show the world that this music is what is right to us. We are with you Nergal.

      I agree, even if you don’t like Behemoth the last thing we need is losing another influential person in metal.

    What a warrior. So inspirational. The metal community also deserves credit for their unbelievable support, just goes to show how universally respected and loved Nergal is.

    “I Will Fight”

    With fist and banner high
    I ride into the night
    Under the watchful eye of steel
    Through the valley of forever
    I am a Knight of Metal
    And nothing can break these chains
    The wind will blow through my lands
    A darker night it does bring
    Mine is the strength of many
    Like the dragon its fire will burn
    I sip from the cup of Immortals
    And ride on into the night
    Whatever foe doth challenge me
    Forever I will fight

    Dedicated to Nergal

    Nergals a bad motherfucker. Also, is it me or do his vocals sound even better than on the records?

    I’ve waited a long time for this – the future of Behemoth is going to be pure “Evil and Hate”…!!!
