Behemoth have shared a new single, The Shadow Elite.
Offering their signature blistering blast beats, lightning-fast tremolo picking, and peppered with anti-religion themes, it serves as the opening track of the Polish black metallers' new album, 'The Shit Ov God', due out through Nuclear Blast Records on May 9. Frontman Nergal commented:
"The Shadow Elite is the second single and the opening track from our thirteenth album, 'The Shit ov God'. A raw, high-energy anthem with a relentless drive—a banger built for the stage! Lyrically, it’s a call to arms—a fearless battle cry for outcasts, anarchists, and free minds to rise. We will not be silenced. It’s about uniting and summoning the courage to embrace and amplify the fire of freedom that burns within us!"
The Polish band shared details of the follow-up to 2022's 'Opvs Contra Natvram' last month, alongside the record's title track.
They'll be joined by Satyricon and Rotting Christ for the Unholy Trinity Tour across Europe throughout April, which incudes a show at London's O2 Academy Brixton. Tickets are on sale now.
