BEHEMOTH To Reissue Pandemonic Incantations Featuring Seven Bonus Tracks And More On September 12th Via Metal Blade Records; “Satan’s Sword (I Have Become)” Visualizer Now Playing + Preorders Available

Polish extreme metal legends BEHEMOTH will reissue their stunning Pandemonic Incantations full-length next month.

Originally released in 1998, Pandemonic Incantations marked a crucial turning point in BEHEMOTH’s evolution — from their early black metal roots into the more complex, aggressive fusion of black and death metal that would define their later work. With this third full-length, the Polish horde expanded both sonically and thematically, offering a darker, more layered sound while continuing to sharpen their lyrical focus on occultism, anti-dogma, and self-deification.

Now, over twenty-five years later, Metal Blade Records proudly presents a definitive reissue of Pandemonic Incantations, available September 12th. The expanded edition features seven bonus tracks, including the Bewitching The Pomerania EP and rare rough mixes. A twenty-page booklet dives deep into the album’s legacy with archival photos, liner notes, and brand-new interviews reflecting on the record’s lasting impact. The reissue also features new cover art by Eliran Kantor, paying tribute to the original artwork while reimagining it through a contemporary lens.

Offers band founder Nergal, “Pandemonic Incantations marked a significant leap forward in our evolution. It was a milestone made possible by overhauling the lineup and bringing Inferno into the band – it was a game changer. We recorded the best album we could at that point. To this day, I often hear from fans who say it’s their favourite BEHEMOTH record. Even the sonic imperfections don’t overshadow the mature arrangements and solid song writing. I’m still very proud of it.”

This reissue is not just a nod to BEHEMOTH’s past — it is a vital piece of extreme metal history, reborn for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
