“It doesn’t get more blasphemous than this,” declares BEHEMOTH mastermind, Nergal about I Loved You At Your Darkest.  While it certainly seems an unlikely title for a black metal band, the origin might surprise fans even more than the words themselves.  “It’s a verse from the Bible,” Nergal reveals. “It’s actually a quote from Jesus Christ himself.  For BEHEMOTH to use it as the basis of our record, it’s sacrilege to the extreme.”

A crushing salvo of black metal majesty replete with hellish riffs, thundering drum cannonades and soaring liturgical choirs reminiscent of classic horror cinema, I Loved You At Your Darkest is the group’s most dynamic record yet: extreme and radical on one hand, but also more rock-oriented than any other BEHEMOTH release.  Produced by the band themselves, with drum co-production by Daniel Bergstrand (Meshuggah, In Flames), mixing by Matt Hyde (Slayer, Children Of Bodom) mastering by Tom Baker (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson), and a 17-piece Polish orchestra arranged by Jan Stoklosa,
