Behemoth

Behemoth great as always, The Wiltern venue in LA... much less great. Floor/mosh pit not general admission?? Got stuck around a TRUCK LOAD of hipsters and I could only see around an average of 15-20% of the stage for the bulk of the concert. If social media is a higher priority than watching a concert and you understand the intricate and varied nuances of mustache/beard waxes... The Wiltern in LA is probably a great place for you. Behemoth's stage presence has improved every show I've been to and this was easily my favorite setlist in the 7yrs since i found Behemoth but I easily had more fun last year with their 6 song setlists when they were opening for Slayer just do to other venues having more natural means to let the various types of fans find each other as they filter through a venue (I've been going to metal shows for 18yrs and this is the first time I've been surprised where you could or couldn't go with general admission). Great show... and I'm sure upwards of 40-50% of general admission purchasers got to see it properly. If you were there and got a good spot then good for you, you'll have more room next time because I won't ever pay for a metal show at The Wiltern again.

Third time I’ve had the great pleasure of seeing this truly amazing band and they did not disappoint. With every tour the quality of the production gets better and better - apparently there was a restriction on using actual flames at The Forum last night but there was plenty other forms of smoke and pyromania to add to the atmosphere, as well as very cool visual set-pieces and costume changes.

They ploughed through a good chunk of their classics and cuts from the new album that fans were hoping for such as ‘God = Dog’, ‘Ecclesia Diabolica Catholica’ and ‘Bartzabel’. ‘Daimonos’ from 2009’s Evangelion was also a nice surprise and as always, they closed out with an incredible finale.

What else is there to say that many others haven’t already? A vital, life-affirming performance from a vital, life-affirming band that any self-respecting metal fan should make a point of seeing at least once.

As a brief aside, At The Gates made for a superb main support, their material speaks for itself and they had the crowd in the palm of their hand like it was 1996 all over again. Wolves In The Throne Room also showed enough to merit checking them out further.

Behemoth is a black metal band anti church band., so they come out clad in Gothic leather or battle regalia and have their faces painted white and black with unique patterns. They come out flames ablaze on the stage with awesome pyros, massive drum set and their ambiance is overpowering. The stage is simple with the band banners and some art work.
During the sets the crowd goes wild, chants, sings, moshes. People get trampled over during some of the moshes. I mostly go for the music because I do not care to get hurt, but the one concert I went too they brought out "fake blood" and sprayed the crowd which was pretty unique and neat. The feed on the crowds energy and so does the crowd.
During each song intermission they will scream at the crowd, give them some background information or tell them to get ready for the mosh, this usually gets the masses riled up and makes them charge at each other like animals. Most of the lyrics and singing are guttural screamings so you actually need to enjoy this type of music to be able to understand it.
The show they put on is amazing for small venue, i am sure the bigger venues for them include more theatrics and better props

First off....
I would have never even known Behemoth was coming to Denver without SongKick. Good job.

Second off....
I've never seen them before in concert.
A friend and I snagged tickets for their show at the gothic theater.
This happens to be my friends favorite band too...

The concert itself was pretty good.
The opening band was a folk style death metal band from overseas...
Damn could that girl sing.. Amazing voice.

The crowd went absolutely crazy when Behemoth came out.
I've never seen anything like it.
You could tell the band and the fans were having a good time.
Their encore was great.
They said they were going to do one more song & that turned into 5 more songs.

I would definitely recommend anyone & everyone to go see these guys live.
I'm not a big death metal fan but these guys put on a great show.
I'd definitely see them again.

Hail the light !
Hail Illuminati.

Somehow I had never seen Behemoth live before now. They are not only superb musicians, but performers, as well. The music completely ripped and the show was quite a spectacle. Attendance was great and everyone was clearly really into it. You should go if you get a chance to see them. At The Gates opened and really warmed the crowd up good. It was immediately apparent that they've been doing this for a while. Very tight set. Either band could have just as easily been the headliner.

I love watching Behemoth but that was the first time I've seen them as an opening act. Pretty straightforward, the only new things were Nergal breaking out a megaphone and Orion's new goatee since last I saw them gave a little more stage presence. Other than that, being limited to 7 songs made it feel a little hurried in between them. Pretty decent set list for me, but that's always subjective so it could be better or worse depending on your favorites.

Absolutely the best show I've seen in a long time. At the Gates were engaging and put on a terrific show, while Wolves in the Throne Room did well for what they do.
However, it was Behemoth who blew me away. Specifically, Nergal, whose intensity was utterly infectious. They played a great selection of tracks from various albums, and sounded amazingly close to the studio recordings. I would most definitely travel to see Behemoth again.

I attended this show especially to see Behemoth and Slayer. All the bands were good but Behemoth kicked ass. They had a very short set which disappointed me, but I'm hoping they return. I wondered how it would go, with the temp's close to 100, but they didn't disappoint. The high point of their set was when they done, O Father O Satan O Sun. They absolutely killed it. Very few bands can pull off corpse paint in the light and temps so high.
