Nergal teases debut blues album

Adam ‘Nergal’ Darski has offered fans a taste of his upcoming blues debut, which is tentatively due out in September.

He’s released two video clips from the album recording sessions after the Behemoth frontman revealed his blues, country and folk side-project earlier this month.

He said: “I’m just jamming stuff for Behemoth now. I got this other band going now and I wanna wrap up the record in March and maybe have it out in September this year.

“It’s not metal, it’s blues, country and folk. It’s very new for me, I’m singing also. I need to get it out of my system. It’s a different approach but it’s very dark.”

Behemoth will tour North America in April, where they’ll play The Satanist in full.

Darski previously said the follow-up to their 2014 release could arrive next year.
