Havohej is Jehovah backwards and Pantocrator means allmighty.
Ah! Thanks for the insight.
In short; HAIL SATAN!
Because Jehovahs are backwards......;)
...Amazing knowledge insight right there..
BANGERTV - All Metal thank you for the nice video!
Behemoth is special. I am not into black metal but ever since I first heard As Above So Below I have been hooked. This recent albumn is a masterpiece and thier music resonates with me strongly for some reason.
Bullfrog Jay funny that was my first song from them too. 2002 🤘
Well Banger TV you never let me down, first Anaal Nathrakh and now Behemoth, amazing week!
You: I love this Polish band. They're called Behemoth.
Me, an intellectual: I love this Polish band. THEY ARE BEHEMOTTTTTTTH, AND THEY COME FROM THE PAGAN VASTLANDSSSSSS!
that line is always so hilarious to me lmao
I'm lost
Fun fact: Poland is a catholic nation.
Dude, right? The insane conviction with which he says it rules. So intense!
YES Haha
George Kollias is doing the drums and vocals again on the new Contrarian album. Will be a killer record as always!!!
Feastonmetal AUS Hell Yeah!!!!!
Really? hmm think you just made me check them out
Wasn't Leon Macey from Mithras involved as well at some point?
Amaekill Shath yeah he was with them for a couple of years.
Their first two albums are great... Definitely checking the new one
Being atheist in Poland or Croatia, where 90% of people are religious, is much different then being atheist in USA or Canada
Ben Dover Croatia especially haha
Well, you can feel new wave in poland now to be honest. Government might be pro-catholic but loads of people doesn't give a damn about churches these days. Especially the youngsters. I know what i'm talking about, i'm polish.
Im also Polish, Im 21 years old and very Catholic, so are my friends....amd we are metal heads also
Think about turkey we are satan himselfs here xd
It's really not. Do you realize how religious America is? 73% are christians! You're sleeping! Stop pretending.

Papa Dunn and Behemoth. It's a good day
I love this band, and I had been wating for this record for too long. I wasn't disappointed, at all.
As Sam points out, you can hear that Nergal really took his time to compose and craft this songs. It's sounds familiar (Demigod, The Apostasy, Evangelion, The Satanist), but somehow it sounds new. Everybody was saying a few years back that The Satanist was the band's magnum opus, and even Nergal himself didn't think he could "outwrite" The Satanist. I think, and Sam agrees, he did.
Also, I wanna point out Sam's "critique" of the album, that to some maybe the "fuck christianity" lyrics/imagery is overdone, and it's kinda always the "same old, same old" but as Sam points out, eastern Europe, as well as Latinamerica (I'm from Mexico) both, church and the State are still pretty well attached to each other. So I get Nergal's "artistic license" to say "fuck church/christianity, just let us be". I fully agree with him. Just so you know, this past week Guatemala cancelled a show of Marduk, and a conservative christian group tried to cancel the band's performance in Monterrey (northern city of Mexico). So yeah, maybe to some the "fuck christianity" lyrics/imagery is overdone, but for a lot of us (if no the majority of the world) christianity (catholicism, in the case of LATAM) is still a pain in the ass, and something we want to back off.
Anyway, amazing record, from an amazing band, and a very fair review by the high chief himself.
Cheers, metalheads!! \m/
well said, brother !
Atheism is the fastest growing demographic worldwide so eventually things will get to the point where the resurrection junkies will fade away... but I don't see the army of religious whackos backing off in my lifetime.
Good points. IMO Nergal has a special way of doing things. The message and the dynamics of the music complement each other in interesting ways. And the Behemoth videos actually up the ante! It's not simple anger, it's full-blown expressionism.
I'm a Christian, well not those shitty types lol but I fucking love Behemoth!
Exactamente lo que yo he pensado. Bien dicho, hermano. Yo también soy de México jajaja. Saludos hasta el Estado donde radiques. lml
Great review as always and it's great to see you Sam. Gonna spend the weekend on this and High on Fire
Love Your reviews man!
Ya’ll made me cry not doing Revocation. Gotta do High On Fire next, brah. Bouta be a riot.
Everyone knows the new High on Fire album doesn't need a review it's obviously killer
I did a review on Revocation, and it's awesome!
The review, I mean, is awesome, not the album.
Electric Messiah is freaking massive.
Ayy early af gang🤘 I listened to this album the second it dropped and it did not disappoint!
Jose Valles i listened to it before it dropped 🤘🏻 it leaked a few days early!
Missed what the outro song to the show was - anybody know ? Cheers !
Great review Sam good to see you back in the Banger Hanger. When are we going to get more Lock Horns?
Metal 4 Life
What up Sam! What's up dude!! Great to see you man. I have that shirt. Wearing it in Chicago and wore it to Arizona recently and a few folks knew what it was.
Could you review the new Wolfheart record please?
You are my favorite at banger excellent review as always cheers mate
I haven’t seen Sam in years. I’m so fucking happy to see him doing well and healthy. Love this dude
SAM! I think you are buy far the best freaking Metal Journalist on this Earth. Kudo's Bro!
I think he's not, but I don't mind: he's very honest, articulate, and makes his best giving reasons in order to justify his opinions. Besides that, he seems to be a very nice person (like most of the Banger staff, while having all so different personalities, all of them seem to be good people). So I'm always happy to hear what he thinks, despite of I frequently don't agree.
Sam needs to focus on finishing that Voivod documentary instead of wasting time reviewing average albums.
Great to see Sam doing a review.
Can’t wait to check out this album!
I'm going to see Nergal blaspheme live next month in Toronto \m/
Me too, see you there 🤘
Me too! Bringing my dad to his first metal show :)
LOL You're every dad's dream kid
Good review...as always
It seems evolving. It feels more Black Metal to me. Not like a typical one, it feels grande atmosphiric but still have it's core.
The clean and spacious thing that you said, I get it too. I love it. Feels collosal and like an endless void of darkness. That space gives my sense to gaze into it.
It's fresh but still Black Metal. idk just my opinion.
Listening to the record as a whole for the first time, I'm relieved that it's a lot better than initially expected. There's a lot to latch onto and I really love the Goth influence which Sam didn't really talk about in his otherwise very fine review. The advance singles were all pretty good to great, but the finest meat of the record comes into play on that second half! Excellent work, suits me more than "The Satanist" did in the beginning.
I have to know what the song that plays during the Patreon credits is. Can anybody help?
God = Dog
we need more Sam!
Is there a missing link to that Contrarian album?
Fixed!
you guys should totally sit down and interview Nergal, he's a seriously awesome dude! \m/
What does it say on the album on the top right?
A few things. This is possibly my favourite album of the year rivaled with river of nihil. Second I'm glad to patreon banger tv.
Black/Death Metal vs Technical Progressive Death? Two very different subgenres if you compared him.
Same here, both fantastic albums and AOTY contenders for sure
My top 2 as well!
@@bakaouji7336 I know. Not really comparing just saying I like them a lot. I'll also add monuments new album as well
Cheers from Costa Rica!! Loved the review but honestly, I'm a huge Sam Dunn fan and i expected a bit more "anthropology" (?) further depth in the themes of this album would've been pristine. The bartzabel invocation and the pertinence of said satanic themes in today's Poland would've enriched this aleready thorough review. Still awesome, keep it up
Can you guys do the new high on fire album
excellent review Sam thank you!
Great review on an incredible album
Great review and great band 🤘
Was hoping for a High on Fire review, though.
Great review Sam! I agree 100%!
Love behemoth this is definitely a good album. Also you guys should review the new Kalmah album that would be great!!!
Great review, Banger rules \,,/
High on Fire’s “Electric Messiah” is Album Of The Century.
Been a fan of Behemoth since Demigod came out, and I've loved every album that they've released, even the black metal ones. I love that Behemoth wasn't afraid to take risks and didn't try to write The Satanist part 2, which I know some might be pissed about. It's a beautifully written album, but I wish God = Dog came after the intro. It would've made the choir pretty creepy, and right now it's a rough transition from Solve into Wolves ov Siberia. I need to listen to it more, but this will be one of my favorites this year.
Hm, I pretty much consider it Satanist 2.0 as it holds even less riffs and upbeat drums than the Satanist and more clean guitars, clean vocals and choir (love the hook on Bartzabel though!), compared to the pre-Satanist albums. They have shown their atmospheric universe can be combined with crushing riffs, tempo changes and intense drumming, but they haven't gone that path these last two albums imo.
But I am of the unpopular opinion of loving Evangelion, lol.
MetalForTheMasses Evangelion is the best album in their career. Caught them at the peak of their creativity and originality before they became Hot Topic girlfriend metal.
You're not alone there, I LOVE Evangelion, and is my second favorite Behemoth album behind Demigod. I can see how it sounds a bit like The Satanist, but I'm also catching pieces of other albums, like Zos Kia Cultus, Evangelion, and even their old black/blackened death stuff like Grom.
Nah, Evangelion was their peak. Every song is a fucking banger that makes you wanna learn the songs. The production is perfect. The extra elements like brass and what not are always well placed. The structures are spot on. The whole album was perfect.
Oh, I often saw comments about Evangelion being their weakest.. but I think that opinion was popular before the release of The Satanist. It's always been my favourite, and I cannot fathom the hype of O Father O Satan O Sun, when they released Lucifer already.. that song is pure fucking evil! And like you said, the songs are all bangers, it isn't all about Ov Fire And The Void (despite how good the song is). And the solos were great as well.. I think I know what to listen to right now lol!
People don't like change. I don't usually either but when it's Nergal, it's bound to be creative no matter what, I'll always support the man
Isn't this Sam the guy from the documentary? You rock man!
If you do the "albums that we missed in 2018" reviews next sometime, you should include Revocation, Irreversible Mechanism, Horrendous, Rivers of Nihil and Enblood.
MetalForTheMasses All of which need to make the video.
They did a Rivers review, album of the year so far in my opinion. Sad there wasn't a Revocation review they deserved it.
Oh, I tried backtracking through their videos, but didn't spot the Rivers of Nihil review. Thanks for the heads up!
So happy to see Sam back! Behemoth is near and dear to my heart. I am about 5 years post-religion. I am a proud apostate that appreciates the irreverence. What behemoth has done so well is mixing emotional sounds into their music (orchestral and choral additions) without losing any of its extreme edge. Rather it contrasts the harshness with beauty and makes the whole so much better than the sum of its parts. The Satanist is in my top 5 albums of all time and this follow up *does not dissapoint*.
Didn't think it is possible to top The Satanist. I was wrong, so wrong. ILYAYD is fantastic, their best album yet
cool review, as always. please cut down the 'this record' 'on this record' though haha
For whatever reason, I just haven't really taken in a lot of Behemoth's work. It may not be the ideal starting point, but I think I will give this album a listen and check out the rest of the discography. This review has piqued my interest. Thanks, Sam!
Standing ovation Banger TV!
The heaviness and those drums on older stuff is just SIC!
I expect this review, thanks)
Finally Sam the man is back
right to the point review /professional approach in depth and in style of Behemoth /great album shows how black death should be played today /Congrats!Very powerful!
BangerTV keep up great work!
Haven't fully listened to it yet but when Sam recommends it. It's legit
I've loved everything about this album. It's dark, heavy and atmoapheric; yet also unmistakably Behemoth. The cleaner elements help the album to stand out amongst the crowd, and make the heavy elements seem heavier.
And props to Banger for having great articulate reviewers. Always good to have reviewers with that quality.
The need to review the new Terrorizer - Caustic Attack album
Since The Satanist, I've now been seeing Behemoth as craft makers. This album is just another craft, artifact or a whole new canvas. I've always loved Behemoth with great passion, but that maturity that Sam mentioned, you can really tell something great is happening on Nergal's mind. I don't know, they have always been great in every sense but I've seen a further step which I didn't thought was possible. Beautiful, fantastic, dark, diabolical, phenomenal album
Great! Very Accurate review!
Nergal is a big part of how I got into Thelema. His references to Crowley throughout the discography really piqued my interest.
I saw them live at Ozzfest 2008 and still have my signed copy of The Apostasy, but I was too awestruck at the time (and too concerned with holding up the line, because it was fucking looooooooonnnnggg) to tell him that. So if you see this, thanks Nergal for turning me onto something that has changed my life significantly. And I hope you understand just how important it was to me to get that autograph considering I had to miss Hatebreed's entire set to do it!
You should review The Scythe of Cosmic Chaos by Sulphur Aeon
It was one of the best metal records of 2018
Indeed!
The new Coheed album is fucking amazing. Was surprised to see it mentioned here in a black metal album review.
Yo. Patreon donor’s band is super tight
Nothing but respect for Sam Dunn. Greetings from bogotá, Colombia.
i enjoy the song Bartzabel (demon of storms btw) the video has a lot of imagery that reminds me of the Dark Souls games.
Such a great year for metal fans \m/
yeah !!!! sam is back and Behemoth tooo
Great album! I Love Behemoth! But my only complaint is the track listing in sounds like you have it on shuffle
Let me know if i wrong. I feel some (or high) Batuhska's influences at the new Behemoth's record, and...that it's awesome. Cheers, and Glory to Metal.
Holy shit, that's awesome! Contrarian kicks ass that's so cool!
🙏
Great review. Hails BEHEMOTH..
Buuut REVOCATION just releases a new album would love a review
Check out the new Convulsing album Grievous, absolutely fantastic work of devastating Black/Death fusion, with artwork by Jef Whitehead.
Hell yes! Great band and awesome record!
as far as shout outs are concerned, be well aware that the Steve Perry solo comeback album is out today... great review btw; take that, black metal purists... :)
This is Bangertv not Lightweighttv.
That's funny.
Peter Spalda The single is terrible. I expected more from Steve Perry. I like Journey. I like Black Metal. The 2 can mix easily.
Great album. I love that Nergal continues to grow as a songwriter more and more as the years go by. Yes, the subject is still the same in the lyrics, but the outcry is with more purpose than ever before, and I hope he continues to fight religion until the battle is won. Keep it up Nergal!
Guys, please review the new Revocation record.
I agree completely with this review. In my opinion, this is Behemoth's best album, by far. so much brutality, creativity and melody compressed into 47 minutes is amazing :D
Have not been a huge fan, seen them on the Slayer tour..pretty good show. I'm liking this album!!
Are you going to review the new 'Soulfly: The Ritual' album, 'Behemoth: l Loved You At Your Darkest' new album, excellent! it rocks!
Absolutely loved this album, love the sound of Behemoth on this and The Satanist
Yeah, well, this is absolutely a candidate for Album of the year. I'm so fuckin' sold on this and it's impossible to get tired of. Behemoth nailed it so hard. I love it.
You guys should review the new dir en grey album that just came out and give support to the Japanese metal scene.
Global Metal Suggestions: Portugal - GAEREA "Unsettling Whispers" / Czech Republic - DEPTHS ABOVE "Ex Nihilo"
I really like the ILYAYD. If you consider that it is the follow up to the satanist, which is their best record in my book, it's a great continuation of a more "mature" style. It might not be as heavy as Demigod or Apostasy, but it gives you moments to breathe just before it hits you in the face. Great stuff.
hell yes
Sounds awesome
It's just a clip of one part off the record, but it sounded EXACTLY like Satyricon. Listen, I understand there are only so many notes on a guitar and EVERY band has a riff that sounds like another song. At the same time, I'm curious if they're even aware of it? I would be pretty shocked if they say they're not aware
great band great review
This album was REALLLLLLLY good man. Especially the vocals.
the album is pure genius, beginning to end. reviewed it as 9.5/10. love every second of it.
I give it a 5/10 after the first spin. But it's better than the previous album.
Agreed. The album is genius.
Can't agree more with your review, and it doesn't matter what style or sub style, this record is pushing the walls of their own style and all that matter here is to see a band which is evolving and doing a great job doing it
What a good surprise this album is horns up behemoth
First and last songs are called Solve and Coagvla, very clever Behemoth
I like that their starting to go back to their black metal roots
I heard the album on RUclips first time & i thought then only the first 5 tracks worth it. But now then i bought it & i listen it on a more powerful device, i can say the entire album is great. Listen it on a real device not on RUclips to enjoy the full potential of the album, it worth it.
INTERESTING !!
Isn't it on Nuclear Blast not Metal Blade?
It was good, but I didnt feel a rush when I heard it like I did with the satanist, evangelion, demigod, etc. I always got that rush of evil, but this one seems happy almost and doesnt have much power behind it except for bartzabel.
You know its serious shit when Papa Dunn comes out to review !
I have listened it repeatedly today. first of all, im a huge behemoth fan , and i think this album is a great album. However, i can not deny that it needed more memorable riffs in songs. It is very atmospheric and i am a fan of atmospheric music but i wish it had more nasty guitar riffs. I still think The Satanist had perfect balance. I will listen to it more, then my opinion might change. well i will see.
This new album is nice. I must say I always like to see artists try out new sounds. However lately Im hipnotized by Mgla - Exercises in futility album.
