Inb4 forehead jokes...

Huh, could be an interesting read depending on how far back they go with discussing Behemoth... I'd be curious to read up on Nergal's vision evolving beyond the traditional black metal style of their early career.

I hope this book get translated into english sometime soon. This seems like an autobiography I would actually read.

My same thoughts exactly. And hopefully they do decide to print it in English.

Hopefully he does something on his Facebook or the Behemoth site so all us non-Polish speakers can "Like" for an English print of the book...

If it doesn't get translated immediately, someone will probably be hired to do it once the book reaches a certain amount of sales in Poland.

I don't suppose he'll be tried for tearing that apart on stage, too?

I would definitely buy the book if it gets translated to English. Please.

Just posting to say I'd def. buy an English copy and agree with the above. I'd like to hear him talk about their early career.

Seth Spiro seems to be getting a lot of work involving his artwork lately. Anyways, yeah I would definitely buy it. Always been a huge Behemoth fan.

I suppose it gets the point across that it is about Nergal, but (like Behemoth's music) I find it rather boring.

"I sang about dragons, mysticism, made an extreme metal band, dated a famous (and hysterically insane) Polish pop star, and almost died of a fatal disease...and I hate religion".

There.
I just summarized his entire life story for you all.

I highly doubt he imagined a picture of himself would excite readers. I think the cover art illustrates perfectly that the book will be dealing with his life and his battle with cancer.

If I ever write a book I'll be sure to have all kinds of explosions and shit on the cover though, just to make sure I get peoples' heart rates up.

I feel like a frothing fanboy the way I'm defending this already, but I doubt this book will be that simple. Biographies and autobiographies often provide far more detailed personal reflections and interesting anecdotes - things you don't read in interviews or come to understand even if you manage to snag a quick chat with a musician backstage. I imagine he'll mention his upbringing and what kind of childhood he had, what influenced him to start Behemoth, how religion has made such a significant impact on his life, what it was like to go through the cancer battle, and how his recent lifestyle changes have all but removed him from the black metal stereotype.

Normally we use that when referring to album covers here but it's nice to be able to use it in an actual book thread.

Not. You just summarized the What, the book will be much more and explain the How/Why/When etc. of all these things, which Im sure many people both inside and outside the metal community would like to hear. Im not a huge Nergal fan cuz I think his Anti-religious-antics are pushed a little too far but Im interested to see Why he is like this and that is what autobiographies do, they help you understand a person. And I also think this will help people outside the metal community understand metal a bit more too. Autobiographies can be educational.

Translated by Bing.

Made from the best flamable materials and with easy-to-tear pages.
What would happen if it reveals that Nergal's a devout catholic and the satan stuff is pure showmanship?

Hes got Robocop's Forehead .....

This seems a little early in his life? I'm looking forward to more great stuff from the guy!

Considering the guy was diagnosed with leukemia and could easily be dead by now, the release of his autobiography seems perfectly understandable to me.

I mean, he's one of the few Metal artists who actually survived cancer, and I can totally understand his state of mind and wish to share his life story with others after he recovered (although I admit I don't know if this release was planned before or after his diagnosis and treatment).

Plus, I'm pretty sure Adam has millions of interesting stories to share with his public. I might consider buying this if it is translated in English or French.

I am definitely interested in reading an English version. It would be a shame if it would stay only in a polish version, which would mean it will be limited to a small group of fans.
Seems very interesting to read about his fight against cancer as well as reading about his life in the band
