News : Behemoth, Watain, Bölzer: Australian Satanist tour

By on May 19, 2015

If the overwhelmingly positive response to last year’s The Satanist is anything to go by, then here’s a tour that’s bound to cause some excitement; Poland’s Behemoth are returning to Australia, with Swedish black metallers Watain and Switzerland’s Bölzer in tow.

“Black masses, congregate and lay witness to the blasphemous writings and aural rituals of Australian Satanist. A unique gathering and combination of the works of the respected masters of the dark crafts. Which affiliated together, has never before been presented to, or observed by Australian audiences.

BEHEMOTH: brutally violent, sinister, dark, powerful. Throughout their turbulent career the Polish blackened death metallers have become exactly what their name suggests. A BEHEMOTH in the world of extreme and creative sonic arts. In 2014 BEHEMOTH released their 10th studio album ‘The Satanist’. A primitive, complex and multidimensional album further nailing their inspiring and evolving art into the minds of metal fans worldwide.

Hailing from Sweden and holding the black metal flag, WATAIN is that dangerous flame of metal that seemed lost for many years, and that now once again has been set loose upon the dying world. Creating ceremonial fanaticism, black mass hysteria, blood, fire and death; rock n roll as the Devil once intended. Follower of the wolves, lay down your torches to see the evil, hear the evil and feel the evil, displayed in bombastic nature in it’s purest, rawest and most primitive form.

Bölzer is an outlet and conduit for primal energies, it’s only source of inspiration being the extremities of nature and the inner self. True beauty and enlightenment are found athwart the peaks, amidst the shades. These are the  songs that Bölzer have heard reverberate from those places. Ascend and fall…emerge from nothingness a thunderbolt of flaming wisdom! Blessed be the conflagration of their mortal souls!”

Tickets go on sale May 21st.
