Nergal of Behemoth - Interview PART 1 - MPJ

[9HereticPrincess9]

I'm so glad that Nergal is doing better, and going to be playing 6 shows in Poland. That's encouraging because maybe they will come to the states again eventually!

[holekyo]

when bully visits earth crazy things happens, it is in mythology, isn't it ??

[krzysieeek89]

Listening him I am proud of being his compatriot:)

[MrHellion159]

you know when I heard Behemoth for the first time at my friends house I thought the Nergal was both a huge buff guy and an asshole... looks like I was wrong on both he does not look like a death metal guy lol

[lourdes6]

i wish they had the drive in Malaysia,will be happy to help though,unfortunately no,get well soon,my guru Nergal!!

[harciastyXMetin2]

a to Polak ;]

[dzedav11]

Well, Nergal, you converted me to Behemoth. \m/

[Tehnoob00]

I fucking LOVE Nergal!!! \,,/ Thumbs Up For Nergal!

It's so sad that he has leukemia... I want to see if I am a match for Bone marrow, All thumbs up for Nergal getting better!

[MusicianPhotoJournal]

@Tehnoob00 Did you see that they are doing a Bone Morrow Donor Drive in Nergal's honor (it's in California)? It says that it only takes 10 mins and 1 easy cheek swab that could save a life. For more info, visit: myspace.com/ bewithoutfeardrive

Let all keep a set of fingers cross for Nergal!!

[Tehnoob00]

@MusicianPhotoJournal YES! I did see it! I really hope everything turns out well for Nergal! \,,/

If something happened to the band, I would be Devistated as I already am at the fact he has Leukemia...

PUT UP YOUR FUCKING HORNS FOR NERGAL!!

\,,/ \,,/

[spncrbutters]

@MusicianPhotoJournal i want to see if I am a match for donating my marrow to Nergal, but i live in texas. is the drive going to come out this way anytime soon?

[MusicianPhotoJournal]

@spncrbutters

I'm not sure if they have a drive coming up in texas. If you go to marrow. org, click on "get involved" about 3/4 of the way down the page, there are tabs: click on "find events" and then "Find a donor drive". From there, you can add in your zip code and find out if they have anything in your area. The people at Be The Match were really helpful; I'm sure you can contact them off the site too, if there is not a drive.

[EvidenceFragmentary]

@Tehnoob00 i did a 'cheek swab' and gave my DNA at my college the other day because i thought of Nergal. Hopefully I can help somebody with the same issue one day. If they call, im ready.

[AnataNile]

@Tehnoob00 Hey man, you post this like ten months ago... hoo fucking ray for the success of the last ten months, so happy he's better.

[Ehb42021]

pfffff ozzfest.... behemoth is prob the best band to ever play there

[spanatko]

behemoth is a cool band, i´ve seen their gigs back in those days when they were active on the local scene, it was a bit different than today, however i like what they have become except of the bible bashing thing - i think i get the point with rebellion and being anti-christian, nevertheless the whole message is simply too shallow, i mean these guys are from Poland right? if they suffer from being abused as kids who touched them a lot - i understand - but instead of bashing agains christianity.

[bimoshit]

Behemoth shouldve played in Nepal.

It wud hab been babaaal

We cud hav a Kali murti on stage

Jai metal mata

[venowomb]

he came to nepal but missed our underground scene. bad for him:(

[tomistomasinensis]

he looks like the guy from law and order lol

[malabus]

You wouldn't realise that his first language is Polish. A nice & pleasant person....

[asphixa]

he's an educated guy

[sabbath34x]

Behemoth is amazing

[WarchiefCs]

HELL YES he has a shirt with DAATH!!!

[jewfishie2]

"where do the swords come from"

"they're her weapons" i lol'd

[BloodiedBaptist]

can someone tell me the name of the song in the beginning?

[MusicianPhotoJournal]

"Kriegsphilosophie" from The Apostasy album

[VileMisanthropy]

@MusicianPhotoJournal \m/

[KellyAnn2390]

He's quite charming.

[TenaciousKnee]

hes a really nice guy I met him at mayhem fest

[REDXLR8]

he looks and sounds like a typical family guy........

but hes not?!

HOLY SHIT I DONT NO

[imboblolgodie]

lol he is a family guy. his family are quite anti-catholic in an extremely decout catholic country. This is his way of showing his opposition to catholicism and also to try and offer young people the oppurtunity to think differently than just what is put right infront of us

[fatherovterror666]

i belive that he is educated to be a qualified curator

[RavenousFreaks]

correct

[jprs1988]

Dzisiaj odkryłem, po wielu wielu lat, że ci pochodzą z polski! Ja kiedyś słuchałem tej muzyki, 5 albo więcej lat temu...potem pojechałem do polski na studia, i tam byłem 2 lata, (jestem hiszpanem), ale nie wiedziałem że są polakami! haha

(W kazdym razie, nigdy nie słuchałbym tej muzyki więcej, ani za pieniądzy!)

[masterofmorphine92]

Daath!!

[XxMetalhead666]

LOL..i love his laugh

HAIL BEHEMOTH!!!

[Russlee1580]

He has the exact same hairline as me XD

He's cool in person,i met him twice

[fatherovterror666]

once in vancouver

[keyraa199]

Nergal is cute lol

[iamqqqqqqq]

I thought he would be kind of caustic, with the way he handles his eeeeeeevil stage presence, but he seems like a pretty cool guy

It's almost like musicians are people too...!

[vids4mee]

It's almost like musicians are people too...!

lol, good one.

[justaguy08]

yeah, he is normal... He is really smart... very highly educated.

[fatherovterror666]

not celebrities though they live fucked up lives , only musicians

[Unflaumig]

ooooo wydaje się miłym chłopcem - uprzejmym, uśmiechniętym... nie taki diabeł straszny :-D

[SopelUK]

ale dusza szatana ^^

[isair81]

Alot of these guys playing extreme metal look pretty normal while doing interwievs, you cant always wear stage costumes or wear corpse paint..

The only one ive seen who looks the part in interwievs is Erik from Watain, but then that sort of makes sense!

[xxbeep323xx]

he's just... wow...

[MusicianPhotoJournal]

Eternal Solstice:

There are a few more photos of Inferno in the other parts of the interview.

We do have more photos of him and the rest of the band in our gallery section of our website. I think you will like the ones from The Chance in Poughkeepsie.

[EternalSolstice]

All those pictures and there was ONE of Inferno >:(

[ishobaba]

thats nergal wow hes like so diferant well he should be with no outfits or corpse paint but he looks so normal in plain clothes

[DarthSephiroth2012]

Well, Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir looks pretty normal without his corpse paint and outfits as well.

[7blak7panther7]

5:04

SLAY ENAMAIES

[Hania7x]

Whoooaah!

Polish band, from Gdańsk :) He and band is great!

Believe me, in Poland is more fucking great band!

Im so happy im from poland! yeah!

[languageishellagay]

not only is nergal fuckin seeexy he is in the greatest band on the mother fuckin planet!

[nejcdebevec]

singer of my favourite band wearing t-shirt of my second favourite band, cant be more epic sight :D

[AceFrehley67]

I cant WAIT to see them on the Mayhem fest! the 3 heaviest bands on the planet at one show!

1. Slayer

2. Cannibal Corpse

3. Behemoth

[Johnniequa94]

WTF WHERE?

[Caboose056]

mayhem festival.

[theancientart]

same

almost

except Cannibals

prefer Morbids or Vader

but the place is third

so Slayer, Behemoth, Morbid Angel, Vader

[tierlover5]

dude i am totaly going to that shit

[carnivalix126]

Vader man..

[JustinBaker2567]

really cool video

[JiMiHeNdRiX714]

Polish Metal bands are great like Behemoth, Hell-Born, Infernal War.. Their all great

[agnes202003]

Muzyki takiej nie slucham, ale zgadzam sie z liderem grupy. Religia katolicka w Polsce jest narzuconym schematem. Ludzie sie z tym wychowuja, zyja..Malo ludzi zadaje pytania..a istnieje wiele znakow zapytania co do biblii, polityki kosciola etc. Wyrazajac wlasna opinie, ludzie dziwnie sie patrza (przyklad Kuby Wojewodzkiego).

[Bielo532]

nie, po prostu religia jest dla ludzi którzy się boją i potrzebują bata... my jesteśmy tymi, którzy są wolni. którzy oddychają pełnym czystym powietrzem, którzy myślą niezmąconym przez strach mózgiem. jak to kiedyś zagrowlował, none ov thy empty gods shall ever stand above me!

[JokerHimself]

When I see this video I think: I can just do my way, do whatever I like. When I grow up I dont need to do as everyone else. I have a band and want to become amusic-teacher if my band dont sucseed. However, I want to be like Nergal when I grow up.

[LordMandragous]

JokerHimself: Excellent! Strive ever for excellence! I'm glad that you liked the video and it has helped you find your own path! That's what it's all about brother! Mike Sansoucy - MPJ! - HAILS!

[JokerHimself]

Nergal is king!

[grungzer]

aw he's such a nice guy !

i love at the end when he's talking about

how behemoth isnt just some primitive anti religious band

they actually have reasons for being like that

thats pretty cool

[Kalipso56]

im 12 too and behemoth rocks , perfect band forever!!!

[lnm1323]

hes a great guy actually

[wrdomoraskyhotmail]

i love polish metal bands

[LordSteeze666]

behemoth should come to Nile's home state!

SOUTH CAROLINA!!

[midihc]

behemoth cares about the children! thats why i love them

[cheesseey2]

im 12 to and behemoth is me and my brothers favorite band along with a couple of other bands but especially my brothers favorite band

[JAFAr4gOrN]

Nergal seems like a pretty down-to-earth dude.

[Maitzeth]

Behemoth is the perfect band :P for me!

[0Erazoender0]

Kids scared?

I'm 12. I love Behemoth. They are amazing.

Behemoth forever!!

[Geetarfrik]

Woo! Behemoth AND Daath!

[Emblemz]

this kinda reminds me like Dr jeckel and mr hide...mr hide is when how he is all scary and stuff on his music vids and this is him when he's dr jeckel lol ^-^

[MineIsHuge]

whats the intro song?

[skeleton608]

daath! yeah!

[ikilledthehorizon]

Nergal I love your music..and I'm not scared!!!

[PozytywnyWojciech]

Im proud of being polish when it comes to Behemoth .

[rollingstoner17]

There are few black metal artists who can speak their minds so well outside of their music. It's nice to have frontmen like Nergal around that can relate to us mere mortals as well...

[HauntedShores06]

agreed. hes not trying to hide behind a evil brutal image. hes being himself and hes a nice guy. i respect that

[MineIsHuge]

Well said.

[floaty32]

after i saw this interview i'm not scared of him anymore.

[LBman123456]

At last an intelligant person!! religions are hypocrit and are evil!!!

[Nobody277]

Lovely, how he says ,,seriously " :o))

[Kakizaru]

Ahh, He's wearing a DAATH shirt... There good to I guess.

[hr80gnr]

Nergal jedziesz... xD

[creatorofdemonson666]

he just left the demons

when he is on the stage

[narutosshuriken]

The forehead of metal! :)

[BloodPython67]

'

[creatorofdemonson666]

KRIEGSPHILOSOPHIE

[Evanlee666]

"I like what dictionary says" LOL funny!

[LelonBlackRibbon]

Polish pride!!! \m/

[Behemoth782]

"Probly just to slay enemies" haha a bit better of an interpretation than in Indiana Jones lol.

Hail Behemoth!

[Evanlee666]

your 100% right!

HAIL BEHEMOTH!

[Grzybekhalucynek17]

nergal is Polish!:)

[DENZIS666]

he looks like one of my Aussie friends XD

[norimitsu]

wow he looks like bruce willis!

[coloringpuma35]

Nergals Forehead Alone Could have Reached 49 on the charts

[flupusbarbosa561]

lol nergal seems like a really decent nice guy

[insomnium92]

What did you expect to be an asshole because he plays in a crazy band?

[DENZIS666]

you find a lot of these extreme metal musicians are really nice and ordinary people lol

[torunnsol]

True!

the assholes in "metal" are mostly found in metalcore..haha:)

nergal is a great guy..

[shadowjo1]

deathcore also :D

[opiekat138]

yeah but nergal is really great.

hes not a trendwhore and hes not afraid to like what he likes. all these bm fans try to be so cool and hate anything thats not bm, but nergal is so fucking kick ass, hes not afraid to listen to pop if it means somethiing

sann svart metall

[AODAzraelBC]

He really is. I've met him twice and he's cool as shit!

[Evanlee666]

you've met him! wow. I'm so jealous.

[0rm0]

once he was in polish talk show and he seems to be very clever and kind person... I was very impressed about his personality. REally CLeaver guy and he is metal? odd

[LivingLegend1337]

He soundsw pretty American...

[ObeyyouMaster666]

wow! he's Nergal? it's... diferent than i've ever imagined, but seems a great guy at all, HAIL NERGAL!!!

[morbidangel00]

nergal is georgous

[End0fTheLine]

Has behemoth ever toured with cannibal corpse?

[jordaniac89]

lol...I don't think that would work.

[mataczus11]

Polska

[broadside99]

that's a hot piece of polishness. they rocked in lawrence,ks. too bad the crowd sucked

[metalobob]

Compared to what he looks like in his music videos, I thought Nergal would be kinda unpleasant and satanic or whatever, not this funny o_O

Behemoth % Blackened Death Metal Forever

[CallingCrowe]

Hahaha he criticized the label. That's dangerous as hell. This guy is possibly the best talker of any band i've ever heard... even in a language he's a little akward in. That says a lot.

[gupado]

interviewer was very good

[peledinho10]

holy shit

thats nergal? looks notin like him in the conquer all vid

[TawnetikGrowl]

well he has alooooot of make-up in that video sp ofcourse it doesn't looks like him :P

[czyzykkkkkkkkkkkkkkk]

Behemoth - Polish Steel

[bitchphuckit]

Nergal is so hot and he has the most brutal fuckin' voice /m/

[hitmansjob]

nergal seems like one of the funnest people to hang out with and he seems extremely nice..i luv behemoth so much..best blackened death metal band in the world, luv their lyrics,love their sound, love their heavyness fuck yeah!!!

[bobek]

well, sure he is suprised! It's poland! It's hard for us to believe that someone really really likes you. It's not easy to break through

[Rednasyl28]

I wonder if Nergal realizes how popular his music is? He sort of talks like he's surprised that people like it.

Hail Behemoth. And yeah, the interviewer was very good.

[horrorfan731]

The chick in this interview was great, fuck sanaz and all that bullshit. She stayed quiet and let him speak, her questions werent bone-idol asstalk, and the vibe of the interview was laid back. obviously did some research too.

[bitchphuckit]

i agree with you and sanaz is a whore obviously..

[opiekat138]

totally! dude, i think it was an interview of disturbed or something but metal sanaz kept talking to the guy about how many freinds he has on myspace and stupid shit like that. lol

[Walkeriskoolierthanu]

what a guy.

[opiekat138]

damn he looks so frikin weird without the makeup! shit

[metalkid777]

No, Orion is the bass player. Seth did session guitars on Demigod and The Apostacy.

[SlipknotRulezhios]

Is Seth the bass player?

[bitchphuckit]

god he's so smart

watch the interview he did in poland with kuba

hes really fuckin hot too

[mastabil]

yes, they play onece together, nile and behemoth but that was not very good.

[georock123]

Have Nile and Behemoth ever toured together?

[MusicianPhotoJournal]

With King Diamond in the states.

[georock123]

Thanks.

[aCIDrEIGN3616]

ozzfest?

[choices234]

wow he looks so normal without makeup..and he likes daath!

[aCIDrEIGN3616]

lol whats hes supposed to look like :)

[WalClaypool]

wow this is like a really smart and nice guy. his english isnt the greatest though, but im not gunna critice him too much lol

[bitchphuckit]

his english is great he just has a heavy accent

[kablamo6]

woah he looks so different without his makeup.. and yay hes wearing a daath tshirt ^^ !

[HeviMosher]

Poland really can make great music.Behemoth and Vader rocks!

[Garganthanon]

Don't forget Hate!

[damianface]

Yeah! They're two of my favourite bands, Decapitated too. R.I.P. "Vitek"

[drummertysnow]

Nergal Is The maaan .

[DToJaD]

u know what is most important for me? behemoth is not from UK not from USA. He is from POLAND just like me :)

[ratabich]

wow lol

[TheDrunkenCelt]

s' kinda funny, without the death makeup he just looks like your average joe every guy

[juresidu]

yeah, he is an awesome artist on all the ways.

[ooohwoot]

It's hard to believe that this is Nergal. But, I suppose that's a good thing. Not an asshole.

[ermenwc1982]

nergal you are great...wow...

[compadre187]

Talked to this guy outside a gig in belgium. Best guy you ever met in the world.

[Goudounna]

definitly another man on-stage

[vanhalenrulez]

nergal seems like a really nice guy.

not all those other assholes who think they are better then everyone else

[vanhalenrulez]

holy fuckin shit.

thats nergal?

wow

[deadredd10]

holy shit thats nergal

[rocanella]

i hate how ignorant people clasiffy black metal musicians as bad people while you see him here and its all just straight talk.

Nergals a nice guy, hes not just some douchebag lying to you for money

on stage hes a whole different person, for example, at their show i got blood spat on my face by him!!!

the only criticism i would give is how they dont count seth as a full member =[

[ServantOvSatan]

i agree but nergal technically isnt a black metal musician, he plays death metal now

[metalmankeith]

Behemoth still has elements of black metal in there music. Id say he plays blackened-death metal

[JFAC1342]

Blath

[Incisionator]

He says : "its done by humans". i dont know who said it, but i think it was Varg, and he said : 'my music is human, so it can have errors'. i agree with that. Behemoth doesn't sound very human to me. it's totally perfect playing.

[k24creeds]

i love how nergal actually talks..he doesn't act like he is better than you (like a lot of other black metal singers try to do)..he just gets out there and says it like it is

[aCIDrEIGN3616]

cool guy, cool shirt

[fallentransition]

Behemoth\m/!!!!!
