BEHEMOTH Signs North American Deal With METAL BLADE RECORDS

January 11, 2008

Metal Blade Records has inked a North American deal with Polish extreme metalers BEHEMOTH. The band recently finished up an extremely successful year which saw the band as direct support to headliners HATEBREED on the second stage at Ozzfest and a co-headlining spot on the Radio Rebellion tour alongside now labelmates JOB FOR A COWBOY. BEHEMOTH played over 150 shows in 2007 and has no plans on slowing down for 2008. Expect to see a new release in the form of an EP out in the summer/fall of 2008 along with a Stateside tour in the spring.

Commented Metal Blade CEO Brian Slagel: "We are honored and very excited to work with BEHEMOTH. The band has truly established themselves as one of the greatest bands at the forefront of the extreme metal movement and we can't wait to help continue their amazing career."

BEHEMOTH filmed a video for the track "Prometherion" this past summer. Shot by acclaimed director Soren (ALL THAT REMAINS, UNEARTH),the clip is a frenetic, savage performance based video that perfectly showcases the band's unrelenting energy and uncompromising vision. Watch the video below.
