Chant for Ezkaton - Behemoth Soundcheck - Live in Phoenix

The amazing Polish metal band Behemoth just wrapped up their US tour. I attended the final show in Phoenix, Arizona and purchased the VIP sound check add-on to the show ticket. This may be the best money I've ever spent.
As the sound check was getting started, Behemoth frontman Nergal welcomed everyone and set expectations: "we're going to play four or five songs and maybe ask if any of you wants to join us." Nergal seemed a little surprised when I raised my hand and said I wanted to sing "Chant for Ezkaton" but he and the whole band were incredibly supportive and welcomed me for the final song of the sound check.
I'll let you draw your own conclusions from the video. I've never done anything like this before Data Moshpit last month, and it took me a while to warm up... but it felt absolutely incredible and I can't wait to do something like this again. Thank you, Behemoth!!

So psyched for you. Looks like Behemoth themselves were, too!

[@MatthewRoche]

They were incredibly friendly and supportive. I've been a fan of their music for 25+ years, but now I have a ton of respect and admiration for the people as well.

This is great

[@RobSewell]

Just so amazing - What an experience that must have been 🙂

[@MatthewRoche]

I can't remember the last time I was this stressed, but I would do it again in an instant.

[@barbarian.husmann]

Oh man .. this is fucking awesome \m/ Must be an awesome experience ! Stay Strong Brother

[@thetruth1677]

You have the right voice for it, just some practice for a wild and you could replace Nergal if he shits his pants live or something.

[@kowalsolosolo]

HAIL BEHEMOTH! And...this guy :)

[@JeremiahDaluperit-by8tg]

Man that is such a great experience. My only experience was helping clear all the white zombie stage props to make way for pantera back in the 90s

HORNS UP!!!

[@leonardolima3854]

if you sing great like that in more 2 songs, u will be the next singer in Behemoth

[@MatthewRoche]

There's a reason I picked an older song: Nergal's voice has gotten so much stronger and better over the years, and all I can do today is growl. I'm practicing and learning, and the next time Behemoth tours with soundcheck access like this, I'll see if I can join them again.
