Behemoth were touring in Russia, in support of their latest album The Satanist, when the band was detained for having the “wrong visas.” Behemoth vocalist, Adam “Nergal” Darski , posted a message to fans on the band’s Facebook page, in Polish, and it has since been translated into English by Blabbermouth.
The translation reads like this:
“We’ve been stopped by the [Russian] immigration services for ‘wrong visas.’ When I said that we will not move an inch from the club without someone from the Polish embassy, they threatened to force us out. They took us in a bus, accompanied by 10 officers, to the building of Federal Migration Service. We tried to reach polish embassy in Jekaterinburg but no one is answering the phone.
“If possible — please copy this message and pass it everywhere you can. We may expect a multihour hearing.
“The concert is off for sure. The only thing we want is to get back to the hotel safely and then — to Poland. No matter how hard we try — we cannot pass it all.”
Now fans will have to wait to see how the rest of this situation plays out.
