Behemoth to Release XXX Years Ov Blasphemy as a Live Album Next Month
The Polish legal system’s biggest nemesis and iconic extreme metal band Behemoth announced earlier today that they’ll be releasing their 30th anniversary concert from 2021 as a special live album titled XXX Years Ov Blasphemy.
Set for release on October 25, the live album will feature songs taken from a livestream they conducted back in 2021. In that show, the band played and filmed at three separate locations for a total runtime of about 90 minutes. Those that remember this show may recall that this was the band’s solution for not being able to play shows during the pandemic, just as many other bands did around that time.
Speaking on the entire undertaking as a whole, Nergal said the show brought fan favorites to the masses, while also unearthing some rarer songs to bring those along to the fold as well.
“This project encompasses the Behemoth mantra – Connecting the ancients with the modern era by building a bridge through each decade. Join us in this celebration of black metal and unholy worship, as we continue to outlive Jesus Christ himself!
“We are delighted to put the spotlight on ‘Cursed Angel of Doom’, the track that started it all. It signifies the beginning of an incredibly inspiring artistic journey that changed our lives forever.
“Legions – we hope you enjoy”
XXX Years Ov Blasphemy will be released on October 25 via Nuclear Blast as either a 3CD and BluRay package, 3LP, and a digital album. You can preorder or pre-save your copy today.
Behemoth also have some live dates in Europe lined up for next spring. You can find those dates below.
