As you learned from Revolver's interview with Behemoth's Adam Nergal Darski last week, it was 10 A.M. in Brooklyn, New York on a fall day when the frontman could barely contain his energy to check out our cover shoot setup  — a photo shoot that included stigmata special effects and plenty of liturgical wardrobe options.

This shoot turned into one of four of our Oct/Nov 2018 Explorers Issue covers and features, and we also created a special Behemoth box set that includes three additional bonus covers.

Inspired by the band's aesthetic and latest album, I Loved You at Your Darkest, this photo shoot was done by Revolver Creative Director and photographer Jimmy Hubbard with SPFX makeup and grooming by Jenn Blum, light design by William Englehardt and styling by Cannon at The Cannon Media Group, assistant styling by Alexandra Lynn Gramp and intern Ricky Reed.

Below, see behind-the-scenes shots of that shoot and find out how Nergal transformed into a priest, saint, nun and Pale Man (our nod to the creepy Pan's Labyrinth character).
