In the annals of Metal there is no band more synonymous with an unswerving commitment to the single-minded defiance of expectation than Behemoth. Over the course of their remarkable 31-year career, these Polish hellraisers spearheaded by Adam Darski, aka Nergal are more than just the architects of their country''s legendary extreme metal scene. As "Opvs Contra Natvram", their 12th studio release heralds from the rooftops their longevity is down to a resolute commitment to find new ways to enthrall and inspire their ever-growing legion of latter-day heretics, a determination which shows no signs of erosion.
