In a new interview with the Broward Palm Beach New Times, Nergal discussed Behemoth’s future plans and said that there is currently no plans for a follow-up to The Satanist. He also talked about his new “acoustic-based” side project.

Here’s what he had to say about Behemoth:

“…I think the future is good with thrills and… options. I’m not really counting on my future further than the touring cycle goes these days. That’s really it. We’re going to surprise people with some amazing projects in the coming months, but there’s no new record in sight, to be honest. I don’t know even when or where we’ll start working on it — it’s in the last position on my list of priorities.”

“I think The Satanist gave us a foundation to go pretty much anywhere. It’s a very universal record, I’d say. We could go a little more rock-oriented, or we could go even more extreme. We have a lot of options that we can allow to develop, but it’s just way too soon to talk about it now.”

Here’s what had to say about his acoustic project:

“I’m actually working on a project now, but I don’t want to let much out about it yet. I’m always creating. I always do stuff on the side, and some of it’s not suitable for Behemoth, and I’ve got some other projects that will eventually see the light of day. Or not. Nothing is for certain! [laughs]”

“[It’s] very stripped down and simple. The most primitive, acoustic-based stuff. That’s what I’m really into.”
