RE-ISSUES OF 3 CLASSIC DARK FUNERAL ALBUMS. RE-MASTERED WITH RARE BONUS MATERIAL! |
July 31th, 2007 |
||||||||||||||||||||
|
TRENTON, N.J. – Three re-mastered releases from the catalog of Swedish
black metal masters Dark Funeral - "The Secrets of the Black Arts,"
"Vobiscum Satanas," and "Diabolis Interium" - will be reissued with
bonus material July 31 by Regain Records.
"I've always been proud of each release we have put out and I still am," said frontman Lord Ahriman. "Considering the fact that these albums more or less have been out of print for the past few years, I'm really glad we've finally been able to bring them back to the record shelves. It's also great to be able to offer, especially to our newer fans, re-mastered versions of these albums. Ever since the beginning we have stayed true to the core of our music. So what these albums offer musically is what would become what we play today." "The Secrets of the Black Arts," the group's 1996 debut full-length, will include a bonus CD containing the previously unreleased and now-legendary Uni-Sound recording from January 15-21, 1995. "This recording is surely a valuable history of the band," said Ahriman. "I'm glad that we've managed to bring life into a recording I honestly thought would be lost forever! Thanks to today's studio technology, we managed to transfer the original analogue tracks into digital tracks, and from there digitally re-mix and master it for optimal sound quality. The result is killer, yet suits the era of time it originally was recorded." "Vobiscum Satanas," originally released in 1998, will be augmented with live versions of four of the album's tracks, recorded at the Hultsfreds Festival in Sweden in June of the same year. Released in 2001, "Diabolis Interium" is the most recent of the reissues and contains four additional tracks of Dark Funeral covering songs by perennial dark metal favorites King Diamond, Slayer, Sodom, and Mayhem. Dark Funeral will embark on a month-long US tour beginning October 9. "We can't wait!" Ahriman said. "We have always had a blast when we've played the US, but the most recent tour we did was also the most amazing US tour we've done so far! The venues we played were great, loads of people came out to the shows, and their response was phenomenal. I'm sure the next tour will be even better, at least from our side!" The tour will be the first for the band with its recently-announced new drummer, Dominator, who made his live debut with the band at the Hellraiser Open Air and Rock Hard festivals. "It feels just great," said Ahriman. "Sometimes you need to bring in new blood into a band to get that extra energy kick yourself. And that's exactly what we all got when we started to rehearse with Dominator." Dark Funeral US tour dates are as follow: 10/09/07 Crocodile Rock Cafe - Allentown, PA TICKETS ONSALE THROUGH ENTERTHEVAULT.COM

Ave! I guess by now most of you, if not all, have realised that Matte Modin is no longer in the band. I won’t go into any details as why at this point, but I guess if you read the [statement] Caligula made a couple of weeks ago it should be quite obvious... Anyway, we have for the past few weeks been busy rehearsing with a new AMAZING drummer. And all I can say is WOW! He totally nails the songs exactly as they are played on the albums, with every single hit on the snare, kick, cymbals, etc, just a little bit better. Might sound a bit weird to you, but now with a new maniac behind the kit one realise that a lot of things have actually been missing from the drum department when we’ve played the songs live. Not anymore though. And I’m sure things will just get better. With a new drummer onboard we have also come to realise another important thing. And that is how much we have destroyed some of our songs when we have performed them live. Nothing wrong with hyper speed, but apparently we have been blinded by the speed factor and brought it to a level where it, unfortunately, have ruined the genuine atmosphere, the melodies, and the heaviness of the songs. Now that’s in the past. With the new drummer we play the songs in perfect harmony with the speed (perhaps a little bit faster than on the records, but now with total control) and it sounds phenomenal!!! Anyway, our new drummer actually made his live debut with us in Germany a couple of weeks ago (Hellraiser Open Air & Rock Hard Festival). And considering the very short time we had to rehearse with him before these shows, it went pretty damn fine I must say. Now I guess you’re curious to know who the new guy is, right!? Well, I won’t hold your breath any longer. Let’s raise the horns high and welcome Nils Fjellström (Aeon/Sanctification/In Battle etc) to DARK FUNERAL! Since this guy totally dominate on drums, he will from now on go under the pseudonym “Dominator”.

Ave!
I guess many of you have wondered what the hell happened with the announced October the 13th launce of our webstore. Well, obviously the name we originally had planned for the webstore/clothing-line “Diabolicwear” was too similar to another brand. So we have been forced to change the name. Unfortunately the whole process to change, register and finally get the new name approved has taken an extremely long time. And I can assure you that it has been as frustrating for us as it probably has for you. However, finally we have got the new name approved…. DIABOLISWEAR Yeah, I know. The difference from the original name is perhaps not that big, but that’s obviously how things work. You just change a letter or two and suddenly it’s all fine. The new name is perhaps even more connected to Dark Funeral than the first one, as it is based on our 2001 album “Diabolis Interium”. Anyway, we’re currently double checking all the codes etc for the webstore so that no mistakes have been made with that. We want everything to run smoothly when it finally open. If everything now goes as planned we should be ready to open DIABOLISWEAR within the next couple of weeks. Make sure to bookmark www.diaboliswear.com already now, sign up to our DIABOLISWEAR newsletter. And be among the first people to be informed about the grand opening of DIABOLISWEAR! Due to the name change we have also opened up a new MySpace site www.myspace.com/diaboliswear / |

DARK FUNERAL SECURE UP-COMING TOURS AND LAND NEW ENDORSEMENTS |

As the saying goes, when it rains, it pours. Here in the Dark Funeral camp, the wrath that usually pours down on us, is bad luck, however the tides seem to have turned, and for once, we are graced with good luck, and in turn, good news! Since the unfortunate incident in [xxx] we have been working real hard to arrange new gear so we can get back on the road. Since we're obviously not a rich band, to lose all of our gear has been a huge, huge setback for us in many ways, and it would take forever for us to save up money to afford to buy a whole new backline as anyone might understand. With so many tours, festival shows etc. already confirmed, it's been a real nightmare for us to not know whether we'll be able to pull them all off or not. We realise that this has been a big concern to many of our fans as well. Finally we can all relax! And all thanks to BC Rich, Randall Amplifiers, Seymour Duncan, Pearl Drums and EBS, who has been truly helpful and also offered us their endorsements. On Dec 19th Chaq Mol and I signed an exclusive endorsement deal with RANDALL AMPLIFIERS (USA). We have decided to play their V2 head along with their R412XLT cabinet, which suit our sound perfect. It will also improve our live sound a lot. www.randallamplifiers.com We have also landed an endorsement deal with BC RICH GUITARS (USA). And have decided to play their new NT neck-thru series (Guitars/Bass). Foremost, we plan to use the NT guitars live. And eventually order US custom guitars for studio use. This is also a major improvement for us in many ways. www.bcrich.com Since we're already endorsed by SEYMOUR DUNCAN we have equipped the new guitars with their LW-HMET & LW-CH humbuckers, which boost impressively with two 9V batteries! That's what I call METAL! www.seymourduncan.com Matte is endorsed by PEARL DRUMS. They will provide a kit for our upcoming tour throughout North America. He also uses, and is endorsed by Turkish Cymbals and Wincent drumstick. www.pearldrum.com, www.wincent.se, www.turkishcymbals.com B-Force has landed an endorsement deal with EBS and will play their EBS-TD650 head along with their EBS-410 evolution line cabinet. He will also use EBS bass strings. www.ebs.bass.se Unfortunately we haven't been able to sort new wireless systems yet, but we're working on that as we speak. We would like to send out a massive hail to everyone at BC Rich, Randall, Seymour Duncan, Pearl Drums, EBS and Luthman [www.luthman.se]. You rule! We can't wait to hit the stage and to meet all of you crazy Metallers again! First show with the new gear will be on January 9th at the Jaxx Nite Club, Springfield VA. See you there! / |

There’s now over a week since all of our gear (guitars, bass, wireless systems, cymbals etc) was confiscated by the police in Peru. And we still have not received any news if or when it will be returned to us. At this point of time one can only speculate, but things doesn’t look good though. There’s not easy for us to say this, believe me, but due to the current situation we are unfortunately forced to “postpone” our up-coming shows in Latvia and Lithuania. We can, as anyone might understand, not afford to buy a whole new backline just like that, and/or in time for these 2 shows, which are scheduled this coming weekend already. We understand this will leave a lot of you people disappointed, including the local promoters, but we sure hope to have this literally fucked up situation sorted out real soon, and new dates scheduled and announced to you shortly. / |

Finally back home again after a killer tour in Latin America, except for the somewhat chaotic ending in Peru. I guess it's about time to set the record straight and explain what really happened there… After a killer show in Santiago (Chile), Caligula started to feel sick. And to tell you the truth, it's a real miracle that no one else in the band got sick during this tour. Travel-wise it was the hardest tour in our career. Late shows and very early flights every fucking day, which left us with not more than 1-2 hours sleep per night. Sure, that kind of schedule works a couple of days, or perhaps a week, but after 2+ weeks - one is pretty much a wreck. Despite of this, we still managed to give 110% at every show, except for the last one in Peru, which of course suck as much for us as for the fans. Anyway, shortly after the Santiago show, and during the flight over to Peru, Caligula started to feel really sick. And by the time we arrived at the airport in Peru he had high fever and had completely lost his voice. So the very first thing we did when we met up with the local promoter was to ask for a doctor, which was arranged very quickly. Our hope was of course that Caligula would get some medicine so he could at least get back his voice and be able to pull off that one last show. Unfortunately his condition was much worse than what we expected it to be. The doctor literally said that it was of biggest importance that he did not sing during the next 14 days. If he did, he would take a serious risk to get severe problems with his voice in the future. And if someone really believes that he wanted to take that chance and sing that night, you got to be really fucking stupid. At this point we told the Peruvian promoter that we would unfortunately be forced to cancel the show, but that we were ready to do whatever we could from our side to at least give the fans something. I mean, we were, after all, in the country and everyone but Caligula was feeling ok, except for the fact that we were all very fucking tired. The Peruvian promoter said he would not accept any other solution other than that we played. He said if we didn't play, with or without Caligula, all hell would break loose. Well, as we all now know it happened anyway. Normally, if one of us get sick on tour and can't perform - we cancel. But trust me, it will take a lot before we go as far as cancelling a show. After a long discussion between the band, the tour manager and the local promoter, who literally were begging us to play with or without Caligula, we decided that it would indeed be the best for everyone, including the fans, that we played after all, and that would have to be without Caligula, who at this point of time couldn't get a word out of his mouth. Before we went on stage that night I tried to get someone from the venue, who spoke Spanish, to explain the situation to the crowd, but they said it would be for the best if the information came straight from the band, that the crowd would respect the band's own words more than if some local guy tried to explain things to them. Fair enough. My/our concern with this was that none of us speak Spanish. And also, we obviously had the feeling that the people would not understand when I/we spoke to them in English. We pointed out the importance of this several times, that we really wanted someone to explain the situation in Spanish, but every time we were told " -Hey don't worry, people understand English very well over here. And they will for sure understand what you're saying". How fucking wrong was that!? When we were on stage we all got the feeling that this riot was pre-planned. And that it would have occurred even if we played at full force WITH Caligula. And since I now know for a fact that this was not the first time a riot like this occurred when a European metal band plays Peru, we're all 110% convinced that the riot would have happened anyway. Now, afterwards, it's of course easy to say that the decision we took that night might not have been the wisest thing we've done. But anyone who knows us, know that we really did it for the fans, and of course after the local promoter's strong recommendation to do so. But apparently the Peruvian crowd didn't get it. The only other option would have been to cancel the show completely, but would that have made things better? Would it have stopped the riot from happening? Hell fucking no! So either way you put it, we did all what we could to save an already fucked up situation. We obviously did not travel all the way to Peru for fun. We were on tour and we were on tour to give our fans an unforgettable show. But in the end of the day we are humans and not machines, like some people obviously believe, and we can get sick just like anyone else. After the show most of our gear was confiscated by the police (guitars, bass, wireless systems, cymbals etc). And if we don't get it back in the very near future all of our upcoming shows is in jeopardy. We can obviously not afford to buy a whole new backline as anyone might understand. We are however doing everything in our power to have the gear returned to us ASAP. And for those Peruvians who are still crying out loud: We have been told that the local promotor is currently giving away free CD's to the crowd who attended the show, to show them his and our respect. We have also seen that someone from the organization have made a short statement about their arrangements for us, saying how well they had arranged everything, with a 4 star hotel, killer food among many other things. Well, the truth is that the hotel we stayed at could not have had more than 1-2 stars if any. The rooms were small, without hot water, without proper electricity and on top of that we were served cold food that had been laying on a table a whole fucking day. And having Dismember in mind, knowing how fucking sick they got by the Peruvian food when they played there, guess what? We didn't eat anything during our whole stay in Peru. Enough of fucking lies please… Other than that we would like to send out a massive hail to all you people who came out to the shows during this tour. You people were incredible! And you once again showed us that the Latin American Metal scene is one of the very fucking best in the world! See you next time!!! A second statement, including one from our tour manager will follow shortly… / |

It just came to our attention that our scheduled show in Costa Rica on October the 3rd is cancelled. Apparently this is a result by the local promotor’s refusal to share our flight costs with the other promoters, which is total bollocks if you ask me. We were totally looking forward to play Costa Rica during this forth coming Latin American tour, but unfortunately it won’t happen. We understand that this cancellation will leave A LOT of you people very disappointed. And trust me, we all wish there were something we could do to change the situation, but we can’t. We do however hope that there will be another chance for us to play Costa Rica in a not too distant future. Lord Ahriman |

Dark Funeral to tour Latin America in September / October 2006!!! DARK FUNERAL TO TOUR LATIN AMERICA IN SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2006!!! After the enormously successful tour in 2003, which resulted in the highly acclaimed live album “De Profundis Clamavi Ad Te Domine”, Dark Funeral is once again ready to embark on tour throughout Latin America. This time the band will bring their full stage show (same as in Europe plus some nice surprises). Last time the band toured Latin America they played Brazil, Chile & Colombia. This time the band will also hit Argentina, Mexico, Peru, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Ecuador, among others. Dark Funeral guitarist/founding member Lord Ahriman says, “With our last Latin American tour (September 2003) still fresh in my mind, I know that this coming tour for sure will be the highlight for us this year (2006), or perhaps in a long time, who knows!? I guess we will have to leave that up to you people elsewhere to prove me wrong as soon as we’ll hit your town…..fair enough!? Last time we toured Latin America (Brazil, Chile & Colombia) we were completely overwhelmed and for sure taken by surprise by the totally energetic and supportive crowd. You people ruled supreme! And made us completely speechless! You also showed us that the Latin American METAL scene is one of the very fucking best in the world! So a big fucking HAIL to all of you who came out to those shows! We have waited for this moment, to return, since the day we board the plane in Bogotá (Colombia) on September 15th, 2003. And returned back home to Sweden. Finally it will become a reality. I can’t express in words how much we are looking forward to this tour. And we are totally looking forward to play all these new countries that we have never played before (Argentina, Peru, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Ecuador among others). I’m sure it will be an unforgettable experience indeed! Can’t fucken wait... This time we are more prepared than we was back in 2003. So I can assure you, that we have planned, and will give you a far superior show this time around. So raise those Metal Horns high. And we’ll see you in September/October!!!” PS. This time we will also have some killer merchandise for sale (T-Shirts, CD´s etc), something that we never managed to work out properly in 2003. DARK FUNERAL DE TOUR POR LATINOAMERICA EN SEPTIEMBRE/OCTUBRE 2006!. Luego del tan exitoso tour en el 2003, el cual resultó en la grabación del tan aclamado disco en vivo “De Profundis Clamavi Ad Te Domine”, Dark Funeral está otra vez listo para embarcarse en un tour por toda Latinoamérica. Ésta vez la banda llegará con un show de escenario completo (el mismo que ofrece en Europa, con la adición de algunas sorpresas). La última vez visitaron Brazil Chile y Colombia, En ésta oportunidad, la banda además incluirá Argentina, México, Perú, Costa Rica, Venezuela y Ecuador entre otros. Lord Ahriman, guitarrista y miembro fundador comenta: “Con nuestro último tour por Latinoamérica (Septiembre del 2003), aun fresco en mi memoria, se que ésta vez, éste nuevo tour marcará un hito para nosotros, o quizá lo sea en algún tiempo, quien sabe?. Adivino que tendremos que dejárselo a ustedes, para que me prueben si estoy equivocado, una vez que llegue a su ciudad...es justo no??. La última vez que visitamos Latinoamérica (Brasil, Chile y Colombia), nos sobrepasó completamente y nos tomó por sorpresa, la energía y el apoyo del público. Ustedes son realmente algo supremo. Y nos dejaron completamente sin palabras!. Además nos demostraron que la escena metal latinoamericana es una de las más fuertes y mejores del mundo. Así que un gran Hail para todos los que estuvieron en nuestros shows!. Hemos esperado por éste momento, el momento de regresar, desde que partimos con el avión desde Bogotá , el 15 de septiembre del 2003, para regresar a nuestro hogar en Suecia. Finalmente, ese sueño se hizo realidad y no puedo expresar con palabras lo tanto que hemos ansiado éste momento. Estamos también realmente ansiosos de tocar en esos nuevos países en los que nunca antes estuvimos: Argentina, Perú, Costa Rica, Venezuela y Ecuador entre otros. Será algo inolvidable!. Ésta vez iremos más preparados que en el 2003. Así que puedo asegurarles que hemos planeado algo espectacular y podremos ofrecerles un show superior!!. Así que mantengan sus puños en alto y nos vemos en Septiembre/Octubre. PD: Ésta vez, además, llevaremos merchandise para ofrecerles (T-shirts, cd´s etc.) algo que la última vez no manejamos correctamente. DARK FUNERAL EM TURNÊ LATINO AMERICANA – SETEMBRO / OUTUBRO 2006 Depois do enorme sucesso da turnê de 2003, que resultou no lançamento do já aclamado álbum ao vivo “De Profundis Clamavi Ad Te Domine”, o DARK FUNERAL, mais uma vez, está pronto para embarcar para sua mais nova turnê pela América Latina. Desta vez a banda irá trazer o seu show/cenário completo (o mesmo que na Europa) e ainda mais algumas surpresas. Na 1ª turnê, a banda tocou no Brasil, Chile e Colômbia. Desta vez, a banda irá passar novamente por estes paises e ainda pela Argentina, México, Peru, Costa Rica e Venezuela. O membro fundador e guitarrista do DARK FUNERAL, o Lord Ahriman diz “Como a nossa última turnê (Setembro 2003) ainda continua viva em todas nossas mentes, eu sei que esta nova turnê será o ponto alto deste ano (de 2006), ou talvez durante um bom tempo, quem sabe? Vou deixar isso com vocês e espero que nós tenhamos agradáveis surpresas”. Durante a nossa última turnê por estes lados, fomos surpreendidos positivamente com a energia, apoio e recepção do público Latino Americano com a banda. Todos vocês nos deixaram completamente sem fala! Vocês também mostraram que a cena de METAL na América Latina é uma das melhores do mundo, senão a melhor! Um grandioso SALVE a todos aqueles que compareceram aos nossos shows em 2003. Nós esperamos muito por este retorno desde a última data daquela turnê, em Bogotá (Colômbia), no dia 15 de Setembro de 2003. Somente quando retornamos para Suécia é que realizamos tudo o que aconteceu e voltamos à realidade. Não conseguimos expressar em palavras o quanto estamos ansiosos por esta nova turnê. Também queremos muito tocar nestes paises onde nunca estivemos como Argentina, Peru, Costa Rica e Venezuela. Será destruidor e mal podemos esperar. Desde vez nós estamos muito mais preparados do que em 2003, então posso garantir que os shows serão muito superiores aos da ultima turnê. Esperamos todos vocês em Setembro/Outubro. Desta vez também teremos muito merchandise para venda (Camisetas, CDs, etc). See Tour Dates [here]

IT'S OFFICIAL: DARK FUNERAL & ENSLAVED TO TOUR NORTH AMERICA EARLY 2007 |
July 31th, 2006 |

Ave!
Just returned from Spain, where we played Metalway Festival together with Testament, Ministry, Metal Church and Celtic Frost among others. How fucking awesome line-up wasn’t that!? Getting to see Testament and Ministry completely shredding the stage that night, playing such a killer setlists, with pretty much all the classics, was completely fucking awesome I must say. Felt kind of weird to play during the daylight though (5-6pm), but it all turned out pretty cool and the crowd was amazing. Next weekend we’ll play Metal Dayz Festival in Switzerland. It should be a blast too! Since we announced the first European tour dates for our latest album, 'Attera Totus Sanctus', earlier this year, there has been a constant and completely overwhelming flow of mails from the U.S. and Canada asking when the hell we will tour North America. Well finally dates are being booked! Unfortunately I don’t have many details on this tour yet, support bands, routing etc, but it’ll at least be a co headlining tour with Enslaved (NO). The tour is planned to kick off early January 2007. Last time we toured the US, supporting Cannibal Corpse in 2002, we had a blast. Everyone we met during that tour was really cool. The crowd was totally awesome. It'll be killer to finally return overseas! I have the feeling that this is going to be one hell of a tour and we hope see you in January! Dates and ticket on sale information for Candlelight II: Phoenix Rising will be announced shortly. Visit the label's official website for further news and tour information. For more information contact Dave Brenner (earsplitpr@aol.com) or Paula Hogan (paula@candlelightrecordsusa.com). Next up live-wise, and besides the Metal Dayz Festival we will hit South America in September/October. And apparently there’s been a slightly change, date-wise and in the routing, from what was originally announced. Here’s however the very latest update on the tour schedule that have reached us…[tourdates] / |

POLISH SHOWS CANCELLED DUE TO THE PRESENT POLITICAL SITUATION IN POLAND |
2006-02-11 |

"We are sorry to inform that DARK
FUNERAL, NAGLFAR, AMORAL & ASMODEUS gigs in Łódź and Katowice
have been cancelled. Massive Music would like to apologize for
all inconveniences caused to Dragon Productions and the bands.
The cancellation is beyond our control, we are entirely
helpless in the face of the present political situation in
Poland. "
"We understand this has really nothing to do with Dark Funeral
alone as a band, but by a musical scene the Polish Catholics
obviously wish to forbid. To us this is just another proof of
the hypocrisy that lies behind organised religions. They
happily promote tolerance, yet, as soon as they see something
they dislike, they are fast as a shark to call for censorship.
The thing is, reactions like this will most certainly give the
opposite result, it always does! We would however like to
apologize for all inconveniences this has and will cause our
Polish fans, but this is unfortunately beyond our control" |

It's summer. A group of teenagers decide to go on a camping
trip. They drive far up in the country until they find a small
place were they rent canoe's for a cheap price. The group
paddle for a long time before they find the perfect island to
set up camp on. They have sex, do drugs and drink alcohol. But
the next morning they notice that one of them has disappeared.
They split up to go looking for her, but that

At first we would like to thank everyone who have participated and voted for what songs you wants us to play during our up-coming tour. Out of the 5120 votes we got in total, we have now, with your help, put together a literally killer set list for the up-coming European tour. We are currently rehearsing the new set-list and it’s going very well. By the time the tour kick off in Helsinki [Finland] on Feb 21, I’m convinced that we will all be in top shape. The most voted song from each album came out as follows; ...from "Diabolis Interium" ...from "Attera Totus Sanctus" ...from "Vobiscum Satanas" ...from "The Secrets Of The Black Arts" ...from our debut MCD / |

Dominator comment; "I am deeply
honoured to play the music of Dark Funeral and inspired by the
challenge! I would like to thank Lord Ahriman, Emperor Magus Caligula,
Chaq Mol and B-Force for their confidence in me!" Now I can’t wait to
hit the road and eventually start working on new material with the
band! See you on the road!
