* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic - ''The Satanist'' start to finish. No wonder why it is considered the band's masterpiece. ''Demigod'' is also essential listening, same with ''Zos Kia Cultus'', ''I Loved You at Your Darkest'' and ''Evangelion''.
* BrokenBase: ''I Loved You at Your Darkest'' falls into this as a result of introducing clean singing to the band's repertoire.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff - the band is well-respected abroad, but in Poland, they are regarded by general public as a laughingstock. So they were [[NeverAcceptedInHisHometown never accepted in their country]]?
* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments - Nergal's [[http://louciferspeaks.com/2010/08/31/nergal-gives-statement-regarding-the-overwhelming-support-of-his-fans/ response]] to the fan outpouring of support for him when ill, and the large number of fans who became bone marrow donors at Nergal's urging.
* MemeticMutation: Back when ''Evangelion'' was announced, there were plenty of album cover parodies involving ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', especially in the overlap between anime/manga fans and metal fans.
* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome:
** Basically sweeping the 2009 Terrorizer Magazine readers poll, winning Best Live Band, Best Bassist, Best Guitarist, Best Drummer, Best Vocalist, Personality of the Year, [[OverlyLongGag Best Album]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and Best Cover Art]]
** Nergal managing to ''survive leukemia'', laughing all the while at those who believed the possibility of death would make him reconsider his anti-theistic views.
** The spoken word monologue at the end of "O Father O Satan O Sun".
* {{Narm}}:
** While not universal, some find the facepaint and body armour too over-the-top.
** The first lyric of "Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel": '''''[[RefugeInAudacity I SAW THE VIRGIN'S CUNT SPAWNING FORTH THE SNAKE!!!]]'''''
** The usage of "Ov" for several lyrics/song titles will cause some groans.
** They'll usually go into NarmCharm due to how ''delightfully'' they do their shows and music.
* NightmareFuel: Almost all of their music and music videos qualify, with lyrics referencing extreme Satanism. The worst contenders for videos include “Lucifer” and “Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel”.
* OvershadowedByControversy: Behemoth has become this in recent years due to Nergal's AttentionWhore attitude, not helped when he bluntly showed off on Instagram is disdain towards Antifa, which prompted ''many'' Antifa followers to accuse him of racism and Nazism (especially due to his friendship with fellow controversial band Graveland leader Rob Darken).
* TheScrappy: It's generally agreed among detractors and even some fans that Nergal is the weakest link of the band, due to his AttentionWhore tendencies and turning the band into his cash cow.
* SignatureSong: Prior to ''The Satanist'' it was "Conquer All" from ''Demigod'', nowadays it's "Ora Pro Nobis Lucifer" with "Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel" being a close second.
* TheyChangedItNowItSucks - Some of the old fans were not happy about the move to [=blackened death metal=] along with the improved quality.
* ToughActToFollow: Averted. Although most people expected ''I Loved You at Your Darkest'' to succumb to this trope due to it following the universally acclaimed ''The Satanist'', it actually ended up continuing the success of its predecessor.
