Nergal of Behemoth reveals that he is working on the debut album of his side project, but it won’t be any metal at all. In an interview with Spark TV he talks about he is currently doing: “For Behemoth not so much, I'm just jamming stuff. I got this other band going now and I wanna wrap up the record in March and maybe have it out in September this year. It's not metal, it's blues, country and folk. It's very new for me, I'm singing also. I need to get it out of my system. It's a different approach but it's very dark.”
Behemoth frontman also made a few remarks on their current tour; the band is on a European tour in which they play their latest album The Satanist in full. This is something many bands are doing lately, but he thinks it is different when it comes to Behemoth: “I'm looking around and seeing all these bands doing this nostalgia thing. In some cases it makes sense. I saw Slayer doing Reign In Blood and it was amazing. I would love to see Metallica doing Master Of Puppets or AC/DC doing Back In Black for instance. But then some other bands...I don't know. I'm happy that we're doing the full record of the most recent album, not one that we recorded 15 years ago. It talks about where we are now in our career. This is the peak of our career and we should be fucking doing it now.”
During this tour Behemoth also launched a new item of their rich merchandise: communion wafers with their logo on.
