Nergal na versión polaca de "The Voice"

Segundo Blabbermouth:
Guitarist/vocalist Adam "Nergal" Darski of Polish extreme metal veterans BEHEMOTH has confirmed to U.K.'s Terrorizer magazine that he is in talks to be a judge on Poland's version of the hit American singing competition "The Voice", appropriately named "The Voice Of Poland".

Commented Nergal: "I haven't signed a deal yet, but I got a deal waiting and most probably it's happening. So it's going to be fun. The first black metal judge ever in history doing a mainstream thing, you know? People are going to freak out! Some are going to love it, some are going to fucking hate it. But that's what this music has always been about, right? To provoke, to cause different opinions. The more extreme opinions, the better, I think."

He added of the attention he has received in his home country, "This so-called celebrity life is not my environment at all, but I am a part of it if I want it or not. So it's been crazy. Then the whole case with my sickness and me getting out alive [Nergal was diagnosed with leukemia in August 2010 and underwent a bone marrow transplant procedure in December. — Ed.], it just brought some extra attention to it. And there's definitely some people that want to make some money on it because it's a cool story for them to write about and stuff, but I was like, 'Okay, if they're going to make money, I want to have my share, too.' I was away from music and away from being active live for a good year, so yeah, I need to get something in return!"

It was previously reported in the Polish media that the producers of "The Voice Of Poland" are hoping that Nergal's presence on the program will attract a new audience as well as improve its chances of competing against rival television talent-show franchise "X Factor".

The American version of "The Voice" was a big hit for NBC and helped breathe new life into the careers of coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green.

A pesar de que me gusta moito Behemoth musicalmente (tal vez menos nos seus 2 últimos CDs), e a pesar da complicada operación que tivo este home hai pouco, segue sen caerme nada ben. Meterse nunha especie de OT de xurado paréceme algo un pouco fóra de lugar para alguén que fai Metal Extremo e supostamente "vai en contra da norma". A saber... a mín dame a impresión de que Nergal ten a cousa de chegar a ser alguén famosillo e popular...vamos, unha celebrity... non me gusta un pelo (igual a súa moza Doda lle está a meter ideas raras na cabeza desde hai tempo, pero bueno, non é o tipo de moza que un esperaría para un satánico dethmetalero...)

Aproveito para decir que non haberá máis entradas ata septiembre, xa que estarei no meu pobo e fóra de toda tecnoloxía. Ata esa pasádeo tan ben coma éstes bailando o Papichulo a ritmo da Panorama ou París de Noia. Vémonos!
