To celebrate the release of their critically acclaimed new studio album, The Shit Ov God, which is out today, Poland's kings of extreme metal, BEHEMOTH, have unleashed a stunning music video for their latest single, 'Sowing Salt'.
NERGAL added:
“'Sowing Salt' is arguably one of the most brutal compositions in Behemoth’s catalogue to date. Unrelenting. Unapologetic. Absolute.
The video was directed by Zev Deans, with whom we’ve had the pleasure to collaborate before. He’s crafted a visual that powerfully completes the song — musically and lyrically. And the lyrics? Just as radical and confrontational as music itself."
With the post-apocalyptic and retro-futuristic imagery that dominates the clip, BEHEMOTH enter new territory without sacrificing the visual leitmotif and thematic virulence they have established over the course of their more than three-decade-long career. Scroll down to watch the video for 'Sowing Salt' below.

NERGAL commented:
"Nearly 35 years in, thirteen albums deep — that’s a hell of a journey. And now, with full honesty and open veins, we give you this:
The Shit Ov God is upon you.
The new era begins as we bled for this monumental labor! Take this, all of you, eat and drink from it for this is our body given up for you!
Rejoice!"
