Behemoth ‎– I Loved You At Your Darkest – VINYL 2-LP

Description

“It doesn’t get more blasphemous than this.”

That’s BEHEMOTH mastermind Nergal talking about the title of the band’s 11th and latest album, »I Loved You At Your Darkest«. While it certainly seems an unlikely title for a black metal band—especially one that called their last album »The Satanist«—its origin might surprise you even more than the words themselves. “It’s a verse from the Bible,” Nergal reveals. “It’s actually a quote from Jesus Christ himself. For BEHEMOTH to use it as the basis of our record, it’s sacrilege to the extreme.”

Lyrically, »I Loved You At Your Darkest« revels in the kind of religious provocation that BEHEMOTH do best. “It’s very religion-driven, maybe more than anything we’ve done before,” Nergal offers. “But it’s not just cheap goading. I believe this is some deeper metal language. It’s art.”
