Polish death metal icons BEHEMOTH are celebrating three decades of dominance with their 2026 Chant of the Eastern Lands Australian tour.
“We’re coming to set stages ablaze and leave no soul unscathed,” says indomitable frontman Nergal. “This tour is a celebration of Behemoth’s legacy and a testament to the unbreakable spirit of our fans. Expect chaos, fire, and a ritual like no other.”
Fans can expect to hear tracks from BEHEMOTH’s storied discography alongside songs from their latest album, The Shit Ov God, when they scorch Australia in February next year.
Last here in 2023, BEHEMOTH are bringing along Polish outfit Nidhogg as support.
BEHEMOTH’s Chant of the Easter Lands tour begins in Brisbane at The Tivoli on Wednesday 18 February and continues with dates at Sydney’s The Metro on Friday 20 February, Melbourne’s The Forum on Saturday 21 February and Adelaide’s The Gov on Sunday 22 February.
Pre-sale tickets are available from 9am AEST on Friday 17 October, with general on-sale commencing on Monday 20 October, from 9am AEST. For full ticketing info, visit thephoenix.au.
BEHEMOTH’s 30 year career includes 13 studio albums, a revolving door of members (besides founder Nergal) and concerts at some of the most well-known venues and biggest festivals on the globe.
The band continues to release acclaimed albums, with this year’s The Shit Ov God receiving rave reviews from the worldwide music press, with Blabbermouth describing the record as Behemoth's “finest album in a decade.”
