Behemoth - To Play Entire 'The Satanist' Album On Euro Tour
Polish death metallers Behemoth will perform their critically acclaimed album, The Satanist, in its entirety on the band's upcoming European run in early 2016 (January/February). They also plan to bring a brand new exhibition concept, The Congregation, on tour. The exhibition will be dubbed "A Symbiosis Of Behemoth And Toxic Vision" and will showcase collaborative work between Behemoth and Toxic Vision, the artist that Behemoth has been working closely with over the past few years in terms of stage outfits, music videos, stage/photo props and such.
The exhibition is planned to be held in tent, a capsule created to capture an experience on its own and built a solely for this purpose, and was first shown by Toxic Vision at this year's installment of renowned Inferno festival.
Commented band leader Nergal: "We've always pushed ourselves very hard trying to reach the highest picks of artistic creativity. This time around we are not only coming back to perform The Satanist in its entirety, but are also bringing along a collaboration that's unheard of! Toxic Vision, renowned and absolutely brilliant artist and designer from Canada whom we have worked with on several projects in the past (Behemoth stage gear, video clip costumes...) will be accompanying us on this European trek with a unique exhibition called The Congregation! We are beyond excited to see how these synergies coexist! Sharon, it's an honour to welcome you on board!"

While Paradise Lost will play Gothic in full and Converge will do the entire Jane Doe album at Roadburn, Behemoth chose to base their tour on... The Satanist. Way to go guys.

They must be convinced this is like their magnum opus or something.

Lucky you Marcel! I guess it isn't too odd to play an entire current album in one show.

I really love this album and would love see it played in its entirety Seems that most of you out there think that this album sucks... I believe the album isn't so brutal nor dark compared to their older albums, yet it's really awesome ! Only bad thing to me is that it seems that their tour will see 3 other bands and I don't feel like enduring 3 bands only to watch the 4rth one.

Written by BitterCOld on 10.12.2015 at 17:36 Yeah, lots of bands do it. Makes sense when a band is proud of their newest work, I know I would be glad to be able to finally play something else live.

Written by s_t_s on 10.12.2015 at 17:55 Last time they chose surprisingly good supporting bands. I attended Behemoth's concert in April only because Bölzer and Thaw were their support. I might attend this one too if they bring quality bands again with them.

Written by Zap on 10.12.2015 at 18:24 I get it, it represents the current mindset and make-up of the band. no problems, but i prefer it when a band also reaches back into their older material to represent their various stages and make fans of all eras happy. however, Satamist? as DeadSoulMan remarked to me, it would be as if Metallica devoted an entire gig to doing Reload.

Weird. i've grown accustomed to seeing them pretty much own the Terrorizer awards even in years they didn't release albums (this is going back to Apostasy days.) i had pretty much assumed they had maxed out their growth as I could not/cannot see them breaking into more "normal" music worlds like Rolling Stone, Spin, or whatever.

I'm almost never interested in bands that've been around for a while playing all through their most recent material live.... play through Zos Kia Cultus or Thelema .6 for fuck's sake, not the overrated lackluster album that is The Satanist

A symbiosis of Nergal's Ego and Toxic Visions. Talk about overrated pretentious mediocrity.

Written by [user id=4365] on 10.12.2015 at 23:01 I don't know Behemoth enough surely but seeing you call them followers of the "hipster" fashion hurts me had in the balls. You sure can say so with the latest piece of crap that In Flames dared call an album but here... Anyway my point of view.

Account deleted Written by s_t_s on 11.12.2015 at 12:49 I find whether or not something is hipster is usually defined by its audience, rather than the music (though not true in all cases). I wasn't calling Behemoth hipster, I just commented saying that all the hipstery webzines reviewed The Satanist. Pretty much up to the individual whether or not that makes Behemoth hipster

Written by Sang Dalang Abu on 11.12.2015 at 18:12 Well, you missing something. Behemoth always been a great live performer and has done shows which has stunned many fans. 'The Satanist' might be a breaker and shallow record for Behemoth but they have balls to pull off "crap" in live shows.

Out of all their material, they had to go with The Satanist.... Great.. A good live band for sure, but can they really pull off a great show when they limit themselves to playing what is in my opinion a highly overrated album? I've seen them play three times since 2008, and the gig in 08 was by far the best one. Aggressive as fuck. The last one I saw was this year, and the material they played from The Satanist came across ass a bit boring. I have no reason to believe that playing the whole damn thing will be worth the effort.
