Behemoth, unleash ‘I, Scvlptor’, the first single from their new studio release, I, Scvlptor. The Polish extreme metal legends song rooted in the tradition of monumental tracks like ‘O Father O Satan O Sun!’, ‘Lucifer’ or ‘Nieboga Czarny Xiądz’, while at the same time opening a new chapter. Accompanied by a music video produced by the acclaimed Polish production collective Grupa 13, while the cover artwork and design were created by long-time Behemoth collaborator Bartek Rogalewicz /LODGE.BLACK.
“…It carries that epic weight but also takes an unexpected turn that makes it feel fresh and different from the previous pieces.

‘I, Scvlptor’, releases September 04, 2026 is an exclusive release featuring eight previously unreleased songs – seven new studio recordings and one live track. It is an autonomous body of work that bridges the band’s foundational past with their present creative fire. Brand-new studio material embodying the full force of Behemoth’s live energy and intensity.

That’s why we see I,Scvlptor as an important record — a connecting piece, a bridge between where we are now and whatever may come next in the distant future,” said Nergal .
