BEHEMOTH Frontman Stepping Out With Polish Pop Star

May 22, 2009

Several Polish tabloids are reporting that Adam "Nergal" Darski, the 31-year-old guitarist/vocalist of extreme metallers BEHEMOTH, has been photographed stepping out with 25-year-old Polish pop singer Doda (real name: Dorota Rabczewska).

In 2000, at the age of 16, Rabczewska became the vocalist of the Polish rock band VIRGIN. She posed nude for the Polish edition of Playboy magazine in December 2005 and October 2007. She was also featured in the CKM adult magazine several times, which reportedly caused some controversy in Poland.

In 2007, Doda left VIRGIN to begin a solo career. Her first solo album, which came out that same year, was certified gold the day before its official release. Her sophomore CD, titled "Diamond Bitch", was certified double platinum in Poland in 2008 for sales in excess of 60,000 copies.

In a 2005 interview with Metal Warrants, Darski was asked if his beliefs in Satanism were true or if they were just geared towards the genre of music BEHEMOTH plays. "It's not that we're Satanic for the sake of being Satanic," he replied. "Satanism is more like being. . . I don't like labeling things or myself. Or categorize a certain genre. I'm sorry for the Christians 'cause they already did it. Being Satanic is just being on a secular level. Having a discussion with certain kind of people. With my friends and people who are spiritual in connection, we don't really speak on a Satanic level. We are far above that. We don't need to do that. Satanism is more or less like a weapon. And it's very material. It's so much easier to live the Satanic way just so you can deal with the people of the world. . . I would say it's sort of a way of respect to ourselves. Our nature. Our listings. . . Satanism is a weapon. Or a tool to make your life easier for the here and now. That's just one of the levels I deal with."
