Behemoth in Zwickau

Behemoth are a Polish extreme-metal band formed in Gdańsk in 1991 by vocalist and guitarist Adam “Nergal” Darski. Their early records were rooted in black metal, while Satanica and Demigod established the blackened death metal sound associated with the band. Later releases include Evangelion and The Satanist, and key songs include “Conquer All,” “Ov Fire and the Void” and “Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel.” Behemoth joined Ozzfest in 2007 and played the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival in 2009. More than a decade later, they co-headlined The European Siege with Arch Enemy in 2022, supported by Carcass and Unto Others. Behemoth have performed repeatedly at Wacken Open Air in Germany and Hellfest in France. In England, they have headlined Bloodstock Open Air.
