2020-05-14 by Fernando Alves STAFF | 40 Comments
Blackened death metal titans Behemoth are streaming a new cover of The Cure's 'A Forest', featuring Niklas Kvarforth from Shining. The song is included on their upcoming new EP A Forest, out May 29th. The EP also features two brand-new Behemoth songs, 'Shadows Ov Ea Cast Upon Golgotha' and 'Evoe'.

Stream 'A Forest' official video here:



Behemoth states: "Covering music outside of metal is a challenge – covering legendary music is an even greater challenge…that is what drove us throughout this process. The EP contains two brand-new Behemoth songs, 'Shadows Ov Ea Cast Upon Golgotha' and 'Evoe'. The tracks act as a continuation on from ILYAYD – no more, no less. We hope this brings some respite for anyone struggling during these strange times on our planet! Stay safe, stay positive, Hail Satan!"

A Forest tracklist:

1. A Forest (The Cure cover)
2. A Forest (The Cure cover) (Live)
3. Shadows ov Ea Cast upon Golgotha
4. Evoe

Oh my... it was terrible...

The cover by Carpathian Forest is by far the best.

It's a great song in the original, but this cover is just abysmal.

I don't know guys, the cover was enjoyable to me. The guest vocals were silly, but the instrumentals felt good. I'm happy with it and there's still two other unreleased tracks

I hate metal covers that use growling, they are always worse than the original. This one isn't terrible though.
