Behemoth have released a NSFW video for their brand new track Bartzabel.

It’s the latest material taken from the Polish outfit’s upcoming album I Loved You At Your Darkest, which will launch on Friday (October 5) via Nuclear Blast.

The band previously shared the tracks God = Dog and Wolves Ov Siberia.

Vocalist and guitarist Nergal says: “Bartzabel is a song that came in the midst of a Behemoth rehearsal. We had no structure, no vision, but piece by piece, it came to be and we were extremely excited by the result. 

“To us, it's the eye of the I Loved You At Your Darkest storm: sonically calmer and slower than anything else on the record, but definitely one of the darkest!”

Nergal adds: “Lyrically, myself and Krzysztof Azarewicz were inspired by Aleister Crowley's conjuration of the Spirit of Mars – which the video, by our trusted friends in Grupa 13 – depicts it beautifully. 

“I may even go as far to say that it's my favourite Behemoth video of all time! I hope you all enjoy it, and we look forward to the I Loved You At Your Darkest launch this Friday!”

Behemoth will head out on tour in support of the follow-up to 2014’s The Satanist across the UK and Europe early next year.

Behemoth - I Loved You At Your Darkest
Judging by lead singles God = Dog and Wolves Ov Siberia, Behemoth's follow-up to 2014's The Satanist should be something very special.
