BEHEMOTH ‘I LOVED YOU AT YOUR DARKEST’ 2LP – AMBER

Limited Edition Amber Colored Double Album

Following his unexpected gothic-country-folk turn with side project Me and That Man, Behemoth main man Nergal made room on I Loved You at Your Darkest for clean vocals, children’s choirs and melodic dirges that favored moody atmospherics over blast beats. But rather than dilute the band’s blasphemous brand of blackened death metal, such heretofore-unfamiliar elements only bolstered the mesmerizing power of Behemoth’s 11th album. Dan Epstein
