BEHEMOTH announces title of upcoming album[views:29788][posts:19]______________________________________ [Apr 16,2009 1:34am - the_reverend ""] BEHEMOTH announces title of upcoming album (Los Angeles, CA) April 15, 2009 – Polish extreme metalers BEHEMOTH have set Evangelion as the title of their 9th full-length studio album due out this summer. Evangelion marks the follow up to the bands extremely successful 2007 release The Apostasy; a release which saw BEHEMOTH acquire the supporting slot to second stage headliners Hatebreed on Ozzfest which also featured Lamb of God, Lordi, and Nile just to name a few. Following Ozzfest, BEHEMOTH co-headlined the Radio Rebellion Tour with Job for a Cowboy with support from Gojira and Beneath the Massacre with the band's final North American tour being a direct support slot to Norwegian legends, Dimmu Borgir. After a short break for writing, BEHEMOTH entered Radio Gdansk in Poland to begin recording. Evangelion see's BEHEMOTH, Daniel Bergstrand and Woytek and Slawek Wieslawscy as producers with Colin Richardson (Machine Head, Slipknot, Napalm Death, Carcass) set to mix the album. Here's what frontman Nergal has to say; “I've had this title in my head for almost a year now and it grew on me. It sounds nothing but powerful and epic which perfectly mirrors the essence of the new album. Evangelion comes from a Greek word ‘Spreading the word of God' or ‘spreading the good news'…oh well, you already know that we love to play with the meanings and symbolism. We're here to show you our interpretation of what Evangelion really is.” In support of the band's 9th full-length studio album Evangelion, BEHEMOTH will be touring on what is sure to be this summer's largest and most bone crushing metal festival; the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival. BEHEMOTH will be conquering the Hot Topic stage alongside label mates Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder, Job for a Cowboy and Whitechapel on over 25 dates this summer so make sure to catch the masters of blackened death metal live when they come to a city near you. Details on Evangelion's packaging, artwork, track listing, and pre-orders will be announced over the coming months so be sure to keep an eye on the band's sites and Metal Blade's sites for further information.

| _______________________________ [Apr 16,2009 10:40am - Yeti ""] they don't record albums, the sling together a bunch of sewage and call it an album. that tour lineup makes me oh so very sad. |

I would gnaw through my own leg to free myself from the pain of sitting through that. OK, yes Slayer and CC (and some Behemoth is OK), but at what cost, I ask you??? |

I gotta say, I've met them close up, Nergal is very short, but the bass player Orion is like a Polish Chewbacca. And props to them for putting every other band on that bill to shame. Besides some Slayer and some CC (and I do enjoy old Manson sometimes..), what a terrible show. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 16,2009 12:05pm - largefreakatzero ""] Yes, but how many Polish Chewbaccas does it take to screw in a lightbulb? |
| _______________________________ [Apr 16,2009 12:42pm - Yeti ""] none. Kashyyyk needs no power. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 28,2009 10:09pm - Aegathis ""] Because some people are actually stupid enough to care about stupid shit that doesnt matter. |
