Polish extreme metal veterans BEHEMOTH have unleashed "I, Scvlptor", the first single and title track of their upcoming studio release "I, Scvlptor".

The music video was produced by Grupa 13, while the cover artwork and design were created by Bartek Rogalewicz.

Frontman Adam "Nergal" Darski comments: "'I, Scvlptor' is a new BEHEMOTH 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.

It carries that epic weight but also takes an unexpected turn that makes it feel fresh and different from the previous pieces.

Lyrically, it is a metaphor for the endless process of shaping oneself — an uneven struggle with matter and personal limitations." "I, Scvlptor" will be out on September 4, 2026, featuring eight previously unreleased songs — seven new studio recordings and one live track.

The release includes brand-new studio material embodying the full force of BEHEMOTH's live energy and intensity.

Two tracks are newly re-recorded versions of early BEHEMOTH material with modern sonics while preserving their original spirit.

There are also tributes to bands who had a huge influence on BEHEMOTH: "In League With Satan", originally by VENOM, featuring Shagrath of DIMMU BORGIR; and "The Return Of Darkness And Evil", originally by BATHORY, featuring Sakis Tolis of ROTTING CHRIST.

It will be made available on CD, LP, MC, and limited-edition box set through Massacre worldwide and in digital via Nuclear Blast.

Nergal says: "We're fucking excited about the release of 'I, Scvlptor'.

Even though it's not a regular studio album and is, in fact, more of a compilation, the mere fact that it contains songs nobody has ever heard before makes it a significant release for us.

What's more, some of these tracks are likely a little different from what we offered on our last album, 'The Shit Ov God'.

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." The tracklist includes: 01.

I, Scvlptor 02.

Lord Ov The Horizons 03.

Rise Of The Blackstorm Of Evil 04.

In Thy Pandemaeternum 05.

Begotten 06.
