The Satanist

Behemoth

A towering achievement of blackened death metal that trades mechanical speed for atmospheric weight, ritualistic choral arrangements, and organic, defiant power.

February 3, 2014 · Nuclear Blast

A relentless, confrontational energy with moments of exhausted tenderness and spiritual triumph.

Moments Worth Listening For
The heraldic trumpet blast that opens the album, signaling a shift from pure speed to ceremonial weight.
The frantic, free-jazz inspired saxophone solo that erupts during the bridge of In the Absence ov Light.
The final three minutes of O Father O Satan O Sun! where the music slows into a massive, choral-backed procession.
