Polish extreme metal pioneers BEHEMOTH have unleashed a visually stunning and fiercely thematic music video for their track “Nomen Barbarvm,” a standout song from their critically acclaimed latest album, The S**t Ov God.
The apocalyptic video, directed by Dariusz Szermanowiczr, features deeply symbolic visuals, including references to occult traditions and a deliberate subversion of religious iconography, consistent with BEHEMOTH‘s artistic mission. Expect high-level cinematic quality, utilizing dramatic lighting, elaborate costumes, and special effects to create a dark, epic narrative.
Nergal comments, “‘I create as I speak.’ Isn’t that, in essence, Crowley’s ‘Do what thou wilt’ — just cast in slightly different words? This idea became the lyrical leitmotif of ‘Nomen Barbarvm,’ arguably one of the most melodic, yet also deeply groove-driven tracks BEHEMOTH have ever committed to tape. In just a moment, we’ll be putting it to the test live on our upcoming tour.
“What you’re about to see is a music video we’re immensely proud of, created in collaboration with Group 13. But you already know what that combination means- uncompromising quality and a message art vision that doesn’t compromise!”
