Polish black/death metal elite Behemoth is following the announcement of their new album, The Shit Ov God, unleashed a new single, "The Shadow Elite", alongside a gripping music video.
In an exclusive invite-only event, Behemoth gathered their legionnaires at a secret location for a raw, primal live performance. Marked with the band's sigils, their most devoted fans—The Shadow Elite—formed a chaotic scene as the band performed from within a cage.
Nergal on "The Shadow Elite": "'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 Shit Ov God will be released on 9 May via Nuclear Blast Records. Link
