The Polish metal titans unleash a beastly compilation and gear up for a European onslaught.

Behemoth has once again asserted their dominance in the metal realm with the release of their latest offering, I, Scvlptor, which has stormed to the #1 spot across all sales categories on Poland’s official OLiS sales chart. Released on September 4 via Massacre Records, this compilation is a titanic melding of fresh fury and nostalgic reverberations, available for the die-hard fans and curious newcomers alike.

This latest release is igniting a wildfire of excitement across the globe, as the media clamors to dissect the band's potent return. As the band readies for their highly anticipated European “In League With Satan” tour alongside luminaries Dimmu Borgir and Dark Funeral, the anticipation is palpable.

I, Scvlptor boasts eight previously unreleased tracks, featuring seven newly recorded pieces and one electrifying live performance. This isn’t just a collection; it’s a bridge that connects Behemoth's storied past with the blinding intensity of their current sonic landscape. The album includes reimagined classics like “Rise Of The Blackstorm Of Evil” and “In Thy Pandemaeternum,” both reshaped with modern production yet drenched in the spirit of the originals—an homage to the legends that shaped their sound.

Nergal, the band’s formidable frontman, shared his fervor for the release, stating, “We’re fucking excited about the release of I, Scvlptor. This compilation carries songs that have never been heard before and represents an important piece in our discography. It’s a significant step forward, showing a new side of us while also paying tribute to our roots.”

But the excitement doesn't end there. This October, Behemoth will join forces with fellow metal behemoths Dimmu Borgir for a co-headlining tour that promises to be nothing short of cataclysmic. With special guests Dark Funeral in tow, the tour will thunder across Europe and the UK, delivering a relentless assault of extreme metal to legions of devoted fans.

Mark your calendars, as the tour kicks off on October 9 in Zurich and will thunder through cities like Munich, Paris, and Stockholm, culminating in a grand spectacle that no metalhead can afford to miss. Secure your tickets, brace yourself for the chaos, and witness the resurgence of true metal might!
