Accidentally saw Behemoth at a festival this summer. The music is not 100% my cup of tea but there is something in Nergal's personality that caught my interest. Since then Iv been following him on IG. And now I came across this video. I must say, he is a very interesting, intellectual and well-read person. It was a pleasure to listen him speaking his mind.
Same here! Black/death Metal is not all for me, but he is a fascinating guy. The music of his other project "Me and that Man" is closer to me, but I recover every now and than a Behemoth song I actually like (videos are awesome anyways, sometimes I turn down the sound ^^)
I love how in all of his interviews Nergal totally runs the show, and just talks about whatever he wants. In some interviews I've seen him suggest his own questions and answer them. What a guy. He definitely seems a little intoxicated here lol
Hes so good at utilising the spotlight , he's got a commanding presence that I bet. Is a bit intimidating if youre the guy interviewing him , there's this Inyrrview he did with this little kid that was impressive, he didn't treat him like he was stupid he answered as he would any other adult, awesome guy.
I have been to well over 100 metal shows in my life time and Behemoth is one of the best live acts i have ever seen... If you get a chance to see them live... GO!!! You will not be disappointed...
Have you ever seen tool live? What would you rate them? I've seen them twice and the light show and visuals are insane and of course the musiancship...I haven't seen close to as many shows as you so that's why I ask...
I had the chance to go to their Milan's concert in 2022 with a friend of mine but he didn't go,he changed plans.😡 I was so happy to see Behemoth live...but i didn't.😪 My friend wants to come here in summer this year and he told me to meet him.I answered ok but i think i'll change my plans!😈 I never saw a live,never! I'm 52 years old and i never had this joy. He knows. And that hurts me a lot 'cause he knows that i love Behemoth (he listen to them too!) and i cannot go to a live alone. He lives at Milan city and he knows Milan very well. I don't. There were his favourite bands at that live and i don't understand his behavior. Am i wrong to be angry?.. 🤔 Sorry for my english. I studied it many years ago at the compulsory school only. I Hope you'll understand what i'm trying to tell...maybe you don't care about it but i'd like to know what you think about it. By the way,a Behemoth concert Is a very blast of joy for Death/black metal fans.
He's an intelligent, thoughtful guy. Not a super genius or something, just a down to earth dude who thinks hard about stuff and forms his opinions. I respect people like that.
And yet, he lied to that (Christian) taxi-driver about getting kicked out of the YMCA by intolerant Christians (yeah, that NEVER happened), telling him he was an "Odinist" and that "in Poland, we worship Odin", probably just to avoid offending him. Nergal is a jellyfish. A chameleon. He's the Jussie Smollett of Black Metal. Up until the mid-1990s, he was cliqued up with Nationalist Pagans in the Polish scene. He learned that that was not profitable, so he changed his spots like an actor changes costume in 30 seconds. Sure, some people evolve -- over time. This guy evolves in seconds, because while he pretends to be a rebel and a true Satanist, he just wants to be everybody's best friend, which apparently now means weaving victim narratives for public sympathy. Anyone who believes he was "just trolling" is a gullible fucking idiot. If you trace this band back to the beginning, you know exactly what I'm saying is the truth. He's as Satanist as anything else he claims to be on a momentary basis.
The new album is so fucking good. Thanks Behemoth, you made the album of the year for me. Finaly some good music. Looking forward to the next album, "There is nothing wrong with hookers and cocain"
Interesting perspective. However, my Jesus sure isn't rotting. He is very here, very competent, and very much Alive. He's alive because He speaks to me through His Word as I read it daily. Also, Jesus has given me complete and overflowing forgiveness for the persons that really hurt me when i was younger that claimed to be Christians. Forgiveness is incredible friends but so is the love He gives me for people. I used to be full of hate but Jesus changed all that. He is so kind. And He's been a Father and friend that sticketh closer than a brother, to me. Jesus is so worth knowing my friends. I used to hate God and Christians because of what some supposed Christians did to me early in life. But I blamed God for what they did, and I was wrong about that. I was so miserable from all the bitterness and anger that I was desperate for relief that did not involve drugs. At that time i was sober and clean for about 4 years. So I started reading the Bible of all things. And I couldn't believe what i was reading. I was so wrong about God. He goes way out of His way to demonstrate His love for us. God wanted me to judge Him based on what He says and does and not what other people say about him. Just like me and you in that we don't want people to judge us based on what other people do and say, we want to be judged for what we do and say. That makes perfect sense. Most people judge God based on their own life experiences and what other people say about Him. Please read for yourself and discover Him. I wish I would have accepted Jesus when i was a teenager. It would have saved me so much pain. Id rather have Jesus than anything today my friend. He is always here and will never leave. No King But Jesus!
Gorgoroth: When Love Rages Wild in my Heart, Strapping Young Lad: Love, Pantera: This Love, Type O Negative: Love you to Death, Grave: In Love, Ihsahn: Will You Love me Now. I can't think of any album titles though.
I should've gussed that Nergal was a Laibach fan. I'm from Slovenia and they have surely been a subject of controversy here back in the day. Can totally see why he likes them.
That shirt size thing could also be simply due to different manufacturers' sizings being different. I once bought a t-shirt from the US and the usual S/M/L etc. sizing info was provided. I picked medium as that's my usual shirt size. Turns out it's by American Apparel and it was either a snug fit type or then all their sizes are on the smaller side, but either way, it was a tighter fit than I prefer. Ended up selling it.
Nergal seems like a very chill, down to earth guy. I'd love to meet him in person some day. Also, that guy from kerrang should've asked how to pronounce his stage name beforehand. Lmao
"and life is that short you know, I know life is short; life is that; this is life. I just don't wanna waste this on just limiting myself.. they won't understand that you know uhym uhym..."
Saw him in I believe 2005 on Danzig’s blackest of the black in Atlanta and saw him in Tallahassee a few days later with Himsa 🤘🏻🤘🏻good stuff and good times
What happened to the tattoo on his left arm?? I've seen old pictures with it still there, and it's way too big to remove and not leave a noticeable scar... just curious
nooo la sangria del camionista no... XD (roughly translated: red wine and coke... ugh, gross...) but he's a great artist, and he really seems such a nice person... he deserves at least this minor flaw, I guess ^__^ I really love his sense of humor
The band Behemoth is not up my alley when it comes to metal, I never got into Black Metal in that sense. I like metal, I play it on drums, all good and fine - but not my taste after all. However - Nergal / Adam is (at least to me) a profound, well educated, opinionated - I think that might be a weighted word in english, what I mean is 'convinced on good reason/background/study' - , informed and upright person. And I highly approve that and enjoy hearing his perspective on any matter. I'd wish many more people, especially those that refuse engaging with him in the first place (and by that, i.m.h.o. taking the cheap way out), would see that the same.
While not an album title, Ihsahn does have the song, "Will you Love Me Now" on his first solo album under that name. At the time, I thought it was a brave title and song. This is the natural progression but it does get the same kind of, "can't believe he did that" reaction from me that, "Will You Love Me Now" got from me back then.
Great interview. However I agree Adam uses the same stuff for 'Me, and that Man' with the love concept or in the title. I can name a few names with love in them like Cradle Of Filth. Shouldn't be that difficult audience. See them think ...
Hell yeah!

Damn, Nergal attracts some hot bitches
He’s a hottie that’s why, fucken great musician who’s not afraid to be himself

Especially knowing that english isn’t is native language.
In France we have high school english teacher who don’t speak as eloquently as he does.
I have been to well over 100 metal shows in my life time and Behemoth is one of the best live acts i have ever seen... If you get a chance to see them live... GO!!! You will not be disappointed...
Saw them yesterday for the very first time,and it was definitely not the last time! They're hypnotizing.
Have you ever seen tool live? What would you rate them? I've seen them twice and the light show and visuals are insane and of course the musiancship...I haven't seen close to as many shows as you so that's why I ask...
Absolutely.. BEHEMOTH FUKIN ROCKS
Always a pleasure listening to Nergal! Great interview!

@@Abyssaeon í think he is a product and he knows how to sell his band and his name, he could be anything, but also he's a smart business man.
@@Abyssaeon but the YMCA scene was kinda a silly move
I reckon satan call s himself the nergalist.
Hey Nergal. You're amazing and I love you very much. I'm so excited for the new album
The new album is so fucking good. Thanks Behemoth, you made the album of the year for me. Finaly some good music.
Looking forward to the next album, "There is nothing wrong with hookers and cocain"
Nergal is so positive, I just love him!
I could listen to him talk ALL day. 🖤🤘
One of my favorite artist. Been a follower since Satanica. Nergal started from scratch and deserves every sucess happening to him
such an awesome down to earth guy. he genuinely seems to care about what he does and interacts with people any chance he gets.
I love the way this guy talks. his pronunciation of English words, his mannerisms and charisma. could watch him all day hahaha. nergal
whenever Covid goes away, Behemoth shall headline major festivals and go on a worldwide headlining tour ! Hells yes!
Have you seen the festival in Vegas this summer?!
Fuck Yeah!! Proud of Behemoth from Poland I'll see them in October witch Arch enemy and Carcass if this fuckin corona thing will go away Cheers!!
Such an inteligent guy... So cool to watch he speaking 🖤
I think he got a glass ov wine too much, but I’m loving it! 😄
he did some cocaine before...SO WHAT?:)
I think that is when truth and inner brilliance make headway. Just at that plateau.
I loved how he answered the participants' questions by addressing them individually. That's fucking cool. Much respect.
Seen Behemoth live twice and hope to see them live once again.
Come on, Nergal, admit it: you're a big My Chemical Romance fan ;)
They changed my life
I'm too big my chemical band fan and Nergal is fucking cool guy.🤘🤗
doubts hahahahaha oppositional artistic visions.
10 points to Nergal for using "leitmotif" in a sentence correctly.
Love watching Nergals interviews
32:04 "The world is much better if you STAND". You're fucking great Nergal.
😄 he Is right
Nergal has some of the best interviews in metal
There should be more rock stars like him.Just straight up honest,likeable.
When i do my work out and play behemoth in my ears that gives me even more energy than any drink hell yeah l,,l.
Ugh! His smile is fuckin incredible! He's perfect!!🖤💜
08:55 Rotting Christ - Triarchy Of Lost Lovers (1996)
Hi...
Forgotten tomb - hurt yourself and the ones you love . And for the one with Jesus Christ , Into the grave - Insulters of Jesus Christ . Booooommmmm !
He didn't said Jesus name, he said a Jesus quote
Interesting perspective. However, my Jesus sure isn't rotting. He is very here, very competent, and very much Alive. He's alive because He speaks to me through His Word as I read it daily. Also, Jesus has given me complete and overflowing forgiveness for the persons that really hurt me when i was younger that claimed to be Christians.

@@scottwhitley5542 LOL...you do know where you are when writing this...right?
@@williammitrus Yup, you're worth it. Want everybody to hear about Jesus.
The wine and coke is treating him well I see, I will have to consider this for future nights alone writing music
Red wine with coke is very big in China.
Im looking 4 more talx with Nergal...like this, this is why I love this guy so much... funny, rilly intelligent, honest... no 1 like Adam!!! Hail666
THANX WHOEVER LIKED MY COMMENT
I love this guy a lot too, looking for more interviews as well and bartzabel is such a great song
did u already bought the nw cd I LOVED YOU ..etc HAIL6
I have the digibook cd on order
23:48 What did you steal? Fucking love that!!
Gorgoroth: When Love Rages Wild in my Heart, Strapping Young Lad: Love, Pantera: This Love, Type O Negative: Love you to Death, Grave: In Love, Ihsahn: Will You Love me Now. I can't think of any album titles though.
Type O Negative. Fuck the rest. Gaaaahl would approve
He asked for quotes with the word love AND that were quotes from the bible. Asshat
Lol!
I should've gussed that Nergal was a Laibach fan. I'm from Slovenia and they have surely been a subject of controversy here back in the day. Can totally see why he likes them.
Such an Amazing and Wonderful Person!
I love the music videos, the imagery is amazing, very good art working here.The sounds and textures of the music is perfect with the videos.
Right!
The new record is just awesome! I agree that i could not see it topping The Satanist, but for me it has..
Nergal...my kid digs your voice, put him to sleep 😂 I like the interview, he likes your voice, all good
FYI-4month old
Very Nice, Excellent Interview.
Hail from Brazil 🤘🇧🇷

ahahahaha understand you lol but be careful on here, there's a bunch of unleashed empty heads trying to throw 💩 at everyone who likes behemoth
This man... 😍
So glad he did this Interview there a lot of meat in this one. Cool dude
best nergal interview i've seen so far, great video!
9:00 Forgotten Tomb - hurt yourself and the ones you love , Into the grave - Insulters of Jesus Christ
Booooooommmmm !
Gorgoroth "When Love Rages Wild in My Heart" from "Incipit Satan" [2000] album.
White wine
Metal black,
Sounds amazing..
Its the other way around but ok
Nergal seems like a very chill, down to earth guy. I'd love to meet him in person some day. Also, that guy from kerrang should've asked how to pronounce his stage name beforehand. Lmao
08:55 Norwegian Death/Doom band Beyond Dawn released "Pity Love" album in 1995 or 96.
"and life is that short you know, I know life is short; life is that; this is life. I just don't wanna waste this on just limiting myself.. they won't understand that you know uhym uhym..."
What an awesome interview!!!
I’m loving his mind!
I dig this band and know that it's Passage and he's right
I'm still upset I missed this! Interested in the NYC exhibition plans.
Saw him in I believe 2005 on Danzig’s blackest of the black in Atlanta and saw him in Tallahassee a few days later with Himsa 🤘🏻🤘🏻good stuff and good times
New way to get drunk. Wine with coke...thanks Nergal. You are the best
An old and popular "cocktail" of teenagers getting used to alcohol from 80s Hungary. Red wine and Coke called "hunter".
Here in Spain it's very common, we call it Kalimotxo
@@Z04RD I've heard this idea came out from Czech Republic.
What happened to the tattoo on his left arm?? I've seen old pictures with it still there, and it's way too big to remove and not leave a noticeable scar... just curious
He took a shower
im not a reggae person either. But ill listen to Bad Brains. Same as I'd listen to The Police and The Clash
Bad brains is hardcore
amazing interview
Can we get a suggested reading list from him? I would love to hear the mind bending tomes that have raised his eyebrows
Theres an interview with him on YT naming his top three of a bunch of things, he also names his top three books I think
@42:30 awwww come one I lovee reggae,
this guy is such a knuckle head hahah "someone is gonna steal it", i lost my shit lol
nooo la sangria del camionista no... XD
(roughly translated: red wine and coke... ugh, gross...)
but he's a great artist, and he really seems such a nice person... he deserves at least this minor flaw, I guess ^__^
I really love his sense of humor
He's the nicest man.
He's awesome
Ben Sahar! Hail the mighty Behemoth
Ludrica has an album called Lovesongs. It is/was a black metal band with crust elements.
I must correct myself. The album is called "Another great love song". Cheers
Nergal is at least 72% high at all times.
, you know.
+SK1PTER you know. kkkkkkk
I fukin love BEHEMOTH
I like my wine red, and my water white
I love his misic.
He wants to be the judge of tv programs like American Idol
He is (was) a judge in the polish version of the Voice
Red Wine + Coke = Kalimotxo
This is widely know drink in Spain specially among students due it's very cheap, and well, tastes good :)
The band Behemoth is not up my alley when it comes to metal, I never got into Black Metal in that sense. I like metal, I play it on drums, all good and fine - but not my taste after all.
However - Nergal / Adam is (at least to me) a profound, well educated, opinionated - I think that might be a weighted word in english, what I mean is 'convinced on good reason/background/study' - , informed and upright person. And I highly approve that and enjoy hearing his perspective on any matter.
I'd wish many more people, especially those that refuse engaging with him in the first place (and by that, i.m.h.o. taking the cheap way out), would see that the same.
Goddamn do I love me some Nergal
This is the toughest band right now
Nergal. A living legend 👌🤘
Bien ahiiiii Nergal escabiando vino con cocaaaaa!!
Un buen Kalimotxo para animar.
@@nataliat.photography8098 jajaja al toqueeeee
red wine and coke in my country is called "bambus"
In Spain it's called "kalimotxo" and it's very popular. And in case you were wondering, no, my nickname doesn't come from that ;)
While not an album title, Ihsahn does have the song, "Will you Love Me Now" on his first solo album under that name. At the time, I thought it was a brave title and song. This is the natural progression but it does get the same kind of, "can't believe he did that" reaction from me that, "Will You Love Me Now" got from me back then.
and The Pain Is Still Mine, with its Phantom of the Opera sound. Awesome tracks
The Pain is Still Mine is my favorite Ihsahn track
Nergal discovering kalimotxo! (red wine + coke) very popular in northern spain
The worst the wine is the best will be the kalimotxo😁
Si a nergal le gusta el kalimotxo......siempre en mi equipo. Es uno de los buenos. Un abrazo desde Cuenca
Great interview. However I agree Adam uses the same stuff for 'Me, and that Man' with the love concept or in the title. I can name a few names with love in them like Cradle Of Filth. Shouldn't be that difficult audience. See them think ...
🤘
Awesome chap.
I don't know if this video is allowed to be uploaded. Nergals arm doesn't seem to fit into UA-cams policies
Words of wisdom!!
I’ve been pissed up on red wine and Coca Cola multiple time ,started off in Spain where they drink it (Basque Country)
this is the dude who scares the shit out of everyone,,,he is normal calm great guy!!! love rthis misdirection shit
Drunk interview is the best
Greetings from Laibach :D
Nergal= you know
Ethan fixell = nxnxnnxnxnxmxnnxmxmmxmm
Nergal = you know, you know, you know
Arcturus, before re naming "la masquerade infernal" album was called "The Satanist"
Why do Kerrang interview heavy bands but they never play them on their music channel? They always play pop punk bands
0:42 That's very common in my country (Chile)
Did he get a tattoo removed?
lOVE THIS \M/
red wine and cola is actually nice
Real rock n roll comes from the balls-Nergal
Vegan dog food?!! Cant fucking wait!! gonna be blasting da behemoth and eating the food🤘
Amen..!)))
Red wine + coke = Calimocho (in Spain) 😁
You know what I mean☺☺
