Behemoth have announced In Absentia Dei, an immersive livestream event set to take place on 5th September 2020. The livestream will be broadcast from a secret church location in Poland and streamed in high definition 4K, with an immersive experience option allowing viewers to choose from eight different camera angles in the multi-camera shoot, or watch the ‘Director’s Cut’.
Special guests Imperial Triumphant will join Behemoth, whose set will come from The Slipper Room in New York City.
In Absentia Dei will also feature an hour-long pre-show (which can also be viewed for free via the band’s YouTube channel HERE), taking place at 6pm BST/7pm CEST/1pm EST/10am PST. The full two-hour show will begin at 7pm BST/8pm CEST/2pm EST/11am PST, exclusively via the Behemoth website HERE.
“We bring a new offering for our faithful Legions! You’ve seen Behemoth in many places across the globe, but never before in the Holy Church,” says Behemoth frontman and visionary Nergal. “This is a truly innovative event of which the likes have not been seen before. There will be ritual, there will be sacrilege and all from the comfort of your home. A worldwide streamed event for A New Aeon indeed! In Absentia Dei.”
