Dark Funeral release a video for "Stigmata" 2009/2023

DARK FUNERAL “Stigmata” 2009/2023
Taken from the album "Angelus Exuro pro Eternus" (2009)

"One day in Osorno in southern Chile, I was looking through things I had left in the trunk of my car. There I found some old hard drives, which on a closer inspection turned out to contain an old, but for me very important project, something I had started working on back in 2009 already. When I realized what it featured, I contacted my friend Lord Ahriman to see if we could revive this forgotten gem for the public to enjoy. He agree! Here we breathe new life to the classic Dark Funeral song "Stigmata".

Undoubtedly, this discovery marks a milestone in the history between Dark Funeral and Black Shadows Media.

30 år senare – se Luleåläraren återförenas med världsartisten i Dark Funeral

Black metal-bandet Dark Funeral är världsledande inom genren. Allt startade när den stökiga tonåringen Mikael Svanberg fick spela musik i Christer Engbergs ungdomsprojekt i Luleå. 30 år har passerat och SVT Norrbotten är med när läraren och eleven återförenas. Dark Funeral är nu ute på Sverigeturné.

Lord Ahriman - where it all started

Who knows what path I would have taken in life if this fine gentleman, Christer Engberg, had not caught me in the right way, at the right time, given me a chance to borrow instruments, a rehearsal room, a studio, giving me full artistic freedom, without judging me, which in turn led me to form my first band, "Satan's Disciples" with some friends...who knows...

But here I am. And I'm sure this helping hand has meant a lot to get me to where I am in life & as a musician today.

Glad we managed to set up this meeting, when we, Dark Funeral, played my hometown, Luleå, last weekend, some 32 years since we last met.

This meeting was also documented by SVT Norrbotten (Local Tv on Swedish National Tv) and will be broadcast shortly together with an interview about Dark Funeral with Heljarmadr and myself.

Note: During this time, late 80, early 90s, Stockholm had Anders Carlberg, Fryshuset & Stockholmsnatt. We had Christer Engberg, Folkets Hus Ripan & Vildängel...let this spirit live on!

An extraordinary evening at Felleshus, Berlin

On Tuesday, September 19, Lord Ahriman (Dark Funeral) and Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquility, The Halo Effect) visited Berlin for an extraordinary evening at Felleshus (The Nordic Embassies in Berlin). The event was a collaboration between Export Music Sweden and the Swedish Embassy in Berlin and part of the Nordic metal exhibition "Der Harte Norden".

Curated by Ika Johannesson - and with a record audience for the summer, it was an inspiring conversation about Swedish Metal, their internationally successful career with bands that have been around for 30 years and more.

For the exhibition, Lord Ahriman contributed a pickaxe, a 1993 promo photo of him holding the axe, and an anecdote from the photo session.

Lord Ahriman & Mikael Stanne in conversation with Ika Johannesson [Berlin, Sep 19]

How is international metal career going?
On the 19th In September we will look into this issue in the Felleshus with Mikael Stanne from Dark Tranquility and Micke "Lord Ahriman" Svanberg from Dark Funeral in conversation with Ika Johannesson.

🤟Swedish extreme metal accounts for a large part of Swedish music export and has attracted fans all over the world interest in our small country in the north. Why have so many Swedish bands managed to build lasting careers abroad? What was the need for this? And how do you keep a band you started as a teenager alive? Meet two artists from different fields of metal! Both play in internationally successful bands that have been in business for 30 years.

🔥 Mikael Stanne is the vocalist of Dark Tranquillty, one of the bands that co-founded the Gothenburg death metal sound in the mid-90s and still holds the flag of melodic metal in Gothenburg high. He's also the frontman of Grand Cadaver and The Halo Effect, two relatively newly formed death metal bands that are both currently successful worldwide.

🔥 Micke "Lord Ahriman" Svanberg is guitarist and founder of Dark Funeral, black metal veterans from Stockholm. Since their debut EP in 1994, Dark Funeral have consistently delivered high quality metal of the darker kind. In recent years, interest in the band has grown more than ever, and they are touring for big parts of the year.

🔥 Ika Johannesson, the curator of the exhibition "The Hard North", moderates the conversation. She has been working as a music journalist for newspapers, radio and television in Stockholm for 25 years. In 2011 she wrote the book "Blood, Fire, Death" about the history of Swedish metal.

🖤 Welcome to an extraordinary evening at the Felleshus! After the panel talk, the bar is open and you can visit the exhibition. The event is a collaboration between Export Music Sweden and the Swedish Embassy in Berlin and part of the framework program of the Nordic metal exhibition "Der harte norden".

Wie geht internationale Metal-Karriere?
Am 19. September gehen wir dieser Frage im Felleshus nach mit Mikael Stanne von Dark Tranquility und Micke „Lord Ahriman“ Svanberg von Dark Funeral im Gespräch mit Ika Johannesson.

🤟Der schwedische Extrem-Metal macht einen großen Teil des schwedischen Musikexports aus und hat bei Fans in der ganzen Welt Interesse für unser kleines Land im Norden geweckt. Warum haben es so viele schwedische Bands geschafft, eine dauerhafte Karriere im Ausland aufzubauen? Was war dafür nötig? Und wie hält man eine Band, die man als Teenager gegründet hat, am Leben? Treffen Sie zwei Künstler aus verschiedenen Bereichen des Metal! Beide spielen in international erfolgreichen Bands, die seit 30 Jahren im Geschäft sind.

🔥 Mikael Stanne ist Sänger von Dark Tranquillty, einer der Bands, die Mitte der 90er Jahre den Göteborger Death-Metal-Sound mitbegründet haben und die Fahne des melodischen Metal in Göteborg noch immer hochhalten. Er ist auch der Frontmann von Grand Cadaver und The Halo Effect, zwei relativ neu gegründeten Death-Metal-Bands, die beide gerade weltweit erfolgreich sind.

🔥 Micke „Lord Ahriman“ Svanberg ist Gitarrist und Gründer von Dark Funeral, Black-Metal-Veteranen aus Stockholm. Seit ihrer Debüt-EP im Jahr 1994 haben Dark Funeral beständig hochwertigen Metal der dunkleren Art abgeliefert. In den letzten Jahren hat das Interesse an der Band mehr denn je zugenommen, und sie sind große Teile des Jahres auf Tournee.

🔥 Ika Johannesson, die Kuratorin der Ausstellung „Der harte Norden“, moderiert das Gespräch. Sie arbeitet seit 25 Jahren als Musikjournalistin für Zeitungen, Rundfunk und Fernsehen in Stockholm. Im Jahr 2011 schrieb sie das Buch „Blood, Fire, Death“ über die Geschichte des schwedischen Metal.

🖤 Herzlich willkommen zu einem außergewöhnlichen Abend im Felleshus! Nach dem Podiumsgespräch ist die Bar geöffnet und es besteht die Möglichkeit, die Ausstellung zu besichtigen. Die Veranstaltung ist eine Zusammenarbeit zwischen Export Music Sweden und der Schwedischen Botschaft in Berlin und Teil des Rahmenprogramms der nordischen Metal-Ausstellung „Der harte Norden“.

DARK FUNERAL presenterar supportakter för Sverigeturnén 2023

DARK FUNERAL presenterar supportakter för Sverigeturnén 2023 - tar med sig Offerblod och Avslut!

I juni presenterade DARK FUNERAL sin höstturné. Nu presenteras supporten, som blir inga mindre än Offerblod och Avslut! DARK FUNERAL tar med dem på samtliga gig förutom i Luleå, där endast Offerblod kommer hänga med.

År 1993 klev DARK FUNERAL upp på black-metaltronen och där har Lord Ahriman och hans manskap suttit säkert sedan dess.

Med fler än en miljon följare på Facebook, hundratusentals sålda skivor, en P3 guld-vinst år 2016 och utsålda turnéer världen över, är DARK FUNERAL ett av de största banden i sin genre. Senaste plattan ”We Are the Apocalypse” släpptes år 2022 och fick ett fantastiskt bemötande av både press och media tillika lyssnare. Sommaren därpå spenderades på festivalscener runtom i världen och under hösten och våren 2023 har bandet turnerat intensivt med över 100 spelningar i Nordamerika och Europa.

Nu är det hög tid för den svenska publiken att få sin dos av DARK FUNERAL, och redan den 13 juli intog bandet Gefle Metal Festival. I höst rullar turnén vidare med nedslag i Luleå, Stockholm, Uppsala, Trollhättan, Örebro och Helsingborg.

Goodbye 2022, welcome 2023!


We crawled out of the pandemic crypts with a new album "We Are The Apocalypse". It has been received really well & we are grateful to know that it has ended up on many of your year's best lists. It also hit many album charts worldwide & gave us our highest Billboard position ever. The competition is fierce this year as most bands have used their downtime creatively & most of our own favorite bands have great new albums out as well. Live shows also returned in 2022. We managed 45 gigs in 15 different countries. And we ended the year with a bang, with a 6 week US/CAN tour with our friends Cannibal Corpse, Immolation & Black Anvil.

So far, 2023 is looking very good too. In March we will embark on a 7-week European tour, again together with Cannibal Corpse. After that we have more epic, yet to be announced tours confirmed, stay tuned! Again, thank you all for your endless support! We hope to see you all on the road in 2023!

Cheers & Happy New Year!

DARK FUNERAL Release New Single + Music Video “Leviathan”

Swedish black metal legends DARK FUNERAL have shared a new track from their highly anticipated seventh studio album. The new song, “Leviathan”, is the third single off the upcoming record “We Are The Apocalypse”, which will see a March 18th, 2022 release via Century Media Records.

Lead vocalist Heljarmadr on “Leviathan”: “I immediately heard the ocean when I was listening to the intro for the track, so I wrote from that place and I began to see this place that I was hearing. So I’m trying to create this dire, ominous experience in the water, which is a unique theme and concept for us.”

Dark Funeral cancel Incineration Festival

We are deeply disappointed to have to announce that we have reached a situation with the organizer of the Incineration Festival that makes it completely impossible for us to attend. This means that our show on May 7 in London is canceled! We were really looking forward to performing for you but that doesn’t mean that we accept whatever nonsense that comes our way or tolerate contract breaches.To make things very clear. The organizer is solely responsible for this and this is not something that we take lightly.

We apologize to the people who were waiting for us (we are equally disappointed) and we are looking forward to meeting the great people of England at Bloodstock Festival later this year!A great festival that honour their agreements and treats their artists with respect!

DARK FUNERAL launch new single and video for “Nightfall”

Swedish black metal masters “DARK FUNERAL” release the second single “Nightfall” from their highly anticipated seventh album "We Are The Apocalypse", which will be released on March 18th, 2022 via Century Media Records.
While the first single "Let The Devil In" was an introvert journey, contemplating the darkness within, "Nightfall" is the diametral opposite. "Nightfall" is a display of blistering fury, invoking the seven witches, Lamashtu, to bring forth the eternal night.

The duties for filming, directing and editing the video were once again taken over by Grupa13.

Watch the video to “Nightfall” HERE:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfsOmT-em_E


Lord Ahriman about their brand-new track, “With ‘Nightfall’, we continue to push the boundaries and go faster than anything we have ever done before. I wanted to create the feeling of levitating above the soundscape and into my own dark and twisted world. At this speed, it was also a challenge to find a good balance and dynamic where melodies and atmosphere did not disappear in a noise, but I think we really nailed it! Nightfall gives epic a whole new meaning. Enjoy!”

Heljarmadr continues, “Sometimes I am quite glad that I am not a drummer. I think Jalomaah outdid himself here and it was like standing in a wind tunnel when we recorded it in the studio. But through all the high tempo hammering shines great detail and I think this song has a lot of dynamics. I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing the crowd chant "Nightfall" the day we bring it to the stage.”

On March 18th, DARK FUNERAL will release their long-awaited seventh full-length album "We Are The Apocalypse" (@centurymediarecords / Sony Music Sweden). On the same day, the band invites all fans to the Sound Pollution Store in Stockholm for a signing session and meet and greet. The following day, March 19, they will be in Gothenburg and Bengan's Record Store to do the same.

DARK FUNERAL present new single, video & pre-order for “We Are The Apocalypse” starts today!

DARK FUNERAL present new single and video “Let The Devil In”. Pre-order for “We Are The Apocalypse” starts today!

Today Swedish black metal pioneers “DARK FUNERAL” present the first single and video “Let The Devil In”, taken off their upcoming full-length album “We Are The Apocalypse”, which will be released on March 18th, 2022 via Century Media Records. The unforgiving darkness of this brand-new track perfectly fits the gory and sinister atmosphere of the video – filmed, directed and edited by Grupa13 – giving a good foretaste of what you can expect from “We Are The Apocalypse”.

Watch the video to “Let The Devil In” HERE:
https://youtu.be/JCN8qkWVu1w

Guitarist and band founder Lord Ahriman states, “It is with great pleasure that we can hereby offer you a first taste of our upcoming album ‘We Are The Apocalypse’ with the track ‘Let The Devil In’. It may be a slightly different song from us, but it still holds the true darkness and spirit that is Dark Funeral. It was obvious to all of us that this would be the song that we set the bar with and premiere first. The song also comes with a video, which we recorded in Wroclaw, Poland together with Grupa13. It really was a great pleasure to work with such a professional team. The result is outstanding and fits this completely dark story that is ‘Let The Devil In’ very well.”

Ahriman further adds, “To me, ‘Let The Devil In’ comes in as a proof of the great deeds you can achieve when you turn to your innermost darkness and in harmony become one with your inner devil. ENJOY the darkness!”

The pre-order of “We Are The Apocalypse” starts today.

DARK FUNERAL announce new full-length album and release show for March 2022

Today Swedish black metal legends DARK FUNERAL announce that their brand new full-length album entitled “We Are The Apocalypse” will be released on March 18th 2022. Only one day later – on March 19th – they will play a very special album release show at Fållan in Stockholm, Sweden, supported by special guest Samael and support act Eleine.

About the release show DARK FUNERAL comment:

Inch by inch we are opening the gates to unleash the fires of Hell and we are proud to present to you, the great artists that will join us on March 19!

SAMAEL from Switzerland should need no further introduction, they are genuine legends and a band that never stopped evolving. We are incredibly proud to have them with us as very special guests!
The Swedish dark symphonic metal band ELEINE will be opening the night and contribute in showing that the Devil’s Music have both width and deptsh.

We are looking forward to an incredibly powerful experience on the 19th of March and we encourage you all to secure your tickets to join us. Our new album is finally ready and we can’t wait to include our new music in our set lists. This event will open those gates and we want you to be there with us!
Make sure to follow the event page as we will provide information in a steady stream in both Swedish and English. Meanwhile, we will work incessantly in the background.

Statements from SAMAEL and ELEINE below.

DARK FUNERAL

SAMAEL Forces of Sweden!
Our friends in Dark Funeral will have a new album out next year, and we're excited to celebrate this with them. On that occasion, we will come back to Sweden to share the stage with them for a massive night of black metal supremacy!

A live must see - ELEINE from Sweden!
ELEINE released their 3rd album ”Dancing In Hell” in late 2020, and the success was a fact! The album recordings are powerful and massive, but it is live that you get the full experience of ELEINE. They have an epic presence with their own take of dark symphonic metal, and head banging that you will talk about for a long time.

”It is with great honor we share the stage with the legends of Dark Funeral.
Their release party will be nothing short of epic. ELEINE as a dark symphonic metal band opening for Dark Funeral will be one of the most rare and interesting events in recent Swedish metal history.” – Madeleine Liljestam

DARK FUNERAL - COMPLETE RECORDING NEW ALBUM

And that's a wrap!

We have now officially completed the recording of our new (yet untitled) full-length album at 33 together with producer Daniel Bergstrand and studio technician Fredrik Thordendal. We have had 5 fantastic, but very intense weeks in the studio, but there is no time to rest. There are still many things left to prepare and fix before the album is ready for release (Century Media/Sony). More news will come as soon as more things are ready and fall into place.

Last but not least, we actually have a concert soon, at Black Hole Fest in Switzerland on the 2nd of October. That will be our first show in about 20 months and we are really looking forward to it! Be there! More info at: https://www.facebook.com/blackholefest

Dark Funeral finish songwriting and about to enter studio!

And it's a wrap !!!.

After almost two years of hard work, we can finally announce what everyone has been waiting for. There will be a new DARK FUNERAL album! We have finally completed the pre-production phase for the new, yet untitled, full-length album.

Now the time has come for rigorous rehearing before we finally enter the studio, to immortalize our new songs once and for all.

This time we will be recording in Studio 33, which is owned by Fredrik Thordendal from Meshuggah. And we will once again work together with the great producer Daniel Bergstrand, as with our last album "Where Shadows Forever Reign".

The new album has no nailed release date yet, but it will be released by Century Media / Sony.

The new album will be followed by a massive worldwide touring.

We will of course keep you updated so be sure to follow us through our social media channels.

A new dark age approaching...

A new dark age approaching...

As we all know, the world has changed quite a lot recently, yet it doesn't seem to be the real Armageddon coming, but a temporary plague, like so many before in time.

This has obviously put a lot of our plans to a halt due to restrictions imposed worldwide. To use the time wisely, we have been working tirelessly in the background and we are now starting to see the outlines of our creation.

A new album and a new chapter is taking form.

With this said, we have once again made an agreement with Daniel Bergstrand and 33 (Fredrik Thordendals studio) and will enter the recording phase within a couple of months.

We would, again, like to aim a great THANK YOU to all of you who have been supportive throughout these times. Every merch sale and social media share makes a difference in helping us keep our rehearsal place and to focus on, motivate and invest in, the future.

We will bring you more specific news when we know more ourselves. Keep yourself updated on our social media channels.

Lord Ahriman Jewlery & Dark Funeral album update

Lord Ahriman launch new webstore & release exlusive handmade silver jewlery designed in collaboration with Tyvodar Jewellery.

Ahriman comment:
Finally! My very first jewelry collection is out! And I could not be more than super satisfied with the result. We have worked very hard, for a very long time to give you top design and quality. And it's indeed a pleasure to work with Aleksander, who are an absolutely amazing jewellery artist.

The first collection consists of a Ring, Pendant, Earrings & a solid Necklace with a custom chain, all handcrafted and made in 925 sterling silver. And more is coming...

Now available at:
http://www.lordahriman.com




Moving over to another but yet so important topic. We are currently hard at work on a new Dark Funeral album too. And just like on our previous album, I focus on writing & pre-producing the music in my simple home studio, while Heljarmadr write lyrics and tracks vocals. Jalomaah are working on making the drums more epic than the programmed demo drums I have made while writing. However, some work remains before we are ready to book a studio and record a new album, but we are moving forward. The most important thing is that the end result will be epic! /Lord Ahriman & DARK FUNERAL

LORD AHRIMAN JEWELRY & NEW ALBUM UPDATE!

Ave everyone!
Corona has, in many ways, been a challenging time for many of us, including myself. And when it is not possible to tour, it also means no income. And since my side job between our last two albums was working on shows and various events, I have not been able to fall back on it either, but I am a survivor! I always find strength in myself and ways to adapt to new and unexpected situations. And I'm pretty creative after-all. So when it became clear to me that this pandemic would stay with us for a while, keep us off the road and force us to keep social distances, it made me start brainstorming different business ideas that would fit into this new situation.

Many of you may not know this, but I have always been interested in and/or worked with different forms of design. And since the mid-90s, I have for periods worked as a consultant on the side of the band, which means that I have been my own boss, chosen my clients and projects, which is a work strategy that I think suits me very well. So continuing to brainstorm ideas in that direction was pretty obvious to me. Anyway, to make a long story short. Once I had come up some absolutely fantastic ideas, I decided to start a new design brand under my own name "Lord Ahriman", where I can realize all these epic ideas that I have, ideas that I can not realize with Dark Funeral of course!

My first design & release was my signature guitar strap through Richter Straps. Now I am very enthusiastic and eager to present & eventually show you my next release, which is almost ready for launch. It is a Satanic jewelry series, which I have designed and worked to realize together with Tyvodar Jewellery. The first collection will consist of a ring, earrings & a pair of necklaces and more to come. I hope that everyone who is interested in this type of symbolism will like them.

Anyway. In addition to working with my new brand and a few other things, I have and is currently also working hard on a new Dark Funeral album. And just like on our previous album, I focus on writing & pre-producing the music in my simple home studio, while Heljarmadr write lyrics and tracks vocals. Jalomaah has also started working on making the drums more epic than my programmed demo drums. However, some work remains before we are ready to book a studio and record a new album, but we are moving forward. The most important thing is that the end result will be epic!

DARK FUNERAL “The End Of Human Race” Quarantine Video

While the pandemic is sweeping across the world we decided to stay
active in the background. We are constantly working on the next album but we also decided to check in with a rehearsal video for you. We decided to keep it live & raw. The choice of song is quite suitable too don't you think?

This video was recorded on the 25th of May, sound mixed by Norwin Palme and video edited by Heljarmadr.

WATCH HERE: https://bit.ly/2ZXrtY7

The studio version of this song can be found on our album "Angelus Exuro Pro Eternus", available through Century Media http://www.cmdistro.com.

The absolutely best way to support us during these odd times is to do yourself and us a favour and get hold of our albums and merch.

Covid-19 Update

Greetings!

As you all know, the world is changing as the Covid-19 virus is spreading. Of course shows are affected also for us and we try to give information when we have it. A lot of things are pending so we don't always have specific details to give but we have not cancelled anything, only postponed! 

Just as the rest of the music business. We wish we could give you better answers but as you know the situation is still globally very unclear. Clarity will come eventually.

At the moment we can confirm that the show in Israel (April 18) and London (May 9) are postponed to 2021. More info to follow....

To avoid wasting this time of global stand still, we are intensively working on the next Dark Funeral album. There aren't many things to say about it yet, other than it is slowly taking shape and it will blow you away!

While waiting for the next album, feel free to upgrade your quarantine outfit at http://www.diaboliswear.com

We are also individually active, Lord Ahriman and Chaq Mol have their respective webstores open, Jalomaah is offering online drum lessons & is available for session drum works. Heljarmadr is doing studio work (editing, mixing and mastering) in his home studio. So if you’re interested in anything we have to offer, you’ll find links below. Any and all support are greatly appreciated!

LORD AHRIMAN JOINS THE ESP FAMILY

Lord Ahriman writes; I'm proud to say that I have joined the ESP family.

And meanwhile we are discussing a Custom shop guitar, I have decided to play their awesome "Arrow Black Metal".

Beside the fact that the design of this guitar looks absolutely killer, my first impression is that its extremely easy & comfortable to play. And I can't wait to bring these guitars live onstage eventually.

I've had the guitars setup with my very favourite humbuckers too, which is Seymour Duncan's active "Blackouts"!

I'd like to thank ESP & Seymour Duncan. It's indeed an honour for me to work with professionals like you, thank you!

Lord Ahriman creates a personal Trademark/Logo

Ave
As so many new opportunities have come my way, and as there is a great interest in various merch and signature stuff with and of me, I am currently designing & developing a bunch of really cool items. And to make it right and epic from the very start, I have had a logo/trademark made that will grace everything in grand style.

 To explain the trademark/symbol briefly; it is an L & A, which stands for "Lord Ahriman" along with my pentagram, a symbol that have become such a big part of me, not only on a spiritual and/or personal level, but also it have become a signum for me as an artist. I had the original symbol/necklace, which I'm sure you have seen me wear, made by a silversmith in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden as early as 1991.


The original design idea is my own, but the final & absolutely stunning version is made by none other than Urban Skytt. Urban also made the final version of our epic Dark Funeral Logo, the version we have officially used since 1995.

Anyway, stay tuned. I have some really cool stuff coming out soon. And more is in the works.../Lord Ahriman

FAKE RELASE - NOT APPROVED!

So, apparently Hammerheart Records will continue to piss on me and David "Blackmoon" even while in his grave, by reissuing a cheap & fake version of our legendary, self-financed and self-titled debut Mini CD, even with the wrong logo. What a fucking disgrace!

To make a long story short, I feel its important to let the world know a few facts here. This scumbag even promote this cheap re-issue by falsify history, slandering me and the band, while trying to collect some points pretending he was a good friend of David. I feel like vomiting blood! Just like me, David hated this guy & his pathetic label and did not want anything to do with them whatsoever. And I'm sure David would be spitting fire from his grave if he know what is now happening.

I have personally never approved nor signed any contract with said label, giving them no rights to re-issue this album, which originally was paid and released by David & myself back in May 1994. This was actually one of the many things I was helping David to sort right before his death, meaning helping him get all rights back from Hammerheart to all the other releases he had made through his Hellspawn Records (Infernal, A Tribite To Bathory etc...), a label we both formed, and which I was part of until we walked separate ways back in 1996.

A week before Davids death all was good and all parties had agreed. David would get back all rights to each and every Hellspawn Record release he had on Hammerheart, while the two of us decided to sell the rights to the Mini-CD to Century Media/Sony. That deal was even sealed & closed. However, right after, and then I mean literally only a few days after his death, this scumbag felt he did not have to honour the agreement. He said; "David is dead and cant do a shit, so I will keep it all". And ever since he have kept making cheap releases of Davids and my work, filling up his own pockets with the profits. This must come to an end NOW!

Anyway, just a few days after Davids passing, and while I was still in chock, trying to assist & support Davids family, I got this email from Guido at Hammerheart. I let it speak for itself.

"David was a horrible person…and I respect him for his arts, but I did not care anymore about him, nor will I ever again".

DO NOT BUY THIS FAKE RELEASE !!!

Focus on writing a new album in 2020

Ave!
I understand many of your are eagerly awaiting a new full-length album from us. As always between records, we have been busy touring the world ever since we released our latest highly acclaimed album “Where Shadows Forever Reign”.

However, during this period I have not been absolutely inactive in my home studio. A few new awesome riffs and song ideas has been laid down. And even though it’s not much perhaps, it’s at least a starting point from where I can resume the writings now when we have some time off the road. And that’s exactly what I’m doing right now. I may not be the fastest song writer in the universe, but I’m at least slowly getting back in creative mode again, and that’s what’s the most important I think. And while I'm busy in my homestudio, Heljarmadr will be busy working on lyrics & vocal ideas.

Anyhow, our main mission for 2020 is to focus on writing a new album. And if all goes well, we’ll be entering the studio sometimes during 2020. And as soon as the new masterpiece is unleashed upon mankind, we’ll start yet another touring cycle worldwide. With that said, we’ll do a few selected headline & festival shows during 2020 so we’ll see you there!

I/we will keep you regularly updated during the writing process, so make sure to follow me, the band and the other guys on our social media / Lord Ahriman

Last time we played on the epic 70.000 Tons of Metal cruise was back in 2012. At that time we sailed to the Cayman Islands. This time we will sail to Labadee, Haiti and we come armed to the teeth with the blackest of Swedish metal!

Since we're doing 2 shows on the cruise, we're going to play two somewhat different set-lists. Make sure to catch them both, you won't regret it!

We will also have amazing merchandise for sale, including one strictly limited t-shirt design, made exclusively for the 70.000 Tons of Metal cruise!

Apart from the shows, we will also do many other activities like meet & greets and such stuff. Full schedule to be released soon.

Make sure to stay tuned in in on our social media channels, both our individual and band pages, for further updates & announcements. And foremost, to join us, even through a screen, while we bring dark Shadows Over The Caribbean!


See you soon...

It's time to sum up 2018 and move on to 2019

It's time to sum up 2018 and move on to 2019 and what an amazing year it's been!


We have successfully brought shadows over 54 locations, in 14 different countries throughout the year. We have done our biggest concert this far in the bands career, at Rock al Parque in Colombia, in front of 73.000 screaming metalheads. We've been featured on television in different countries, loads of magazines, met old and new friends from all over the world and first and foremost; delivering our Satanic Symphonies to the masses!


We closed the year by doing 5 shows in our home country, Sweden, to celebrate 25 years of Dark Funeral. Many more years are ahead of us as we rush head first into 2019.

First off is the amazing 70.000 Tons of Metal cruise, meaning a brief return to the US. We are looking forward to that very much. Two shows on-board the world's biggest heavy metal cruise, and on international water between Miami and Haiti. It will be epic!

We have also come to understand that many of you are eagerly waiting for our return to the US shores for a real lengthy tour throughout the country. Unfortunately, we can't give you more detailed information right now, but your screams in the night have been heard. We will return sooner than you know. Stay tuned for further news.

Later in 2019 we also return to Wacken Open Air in Germany, who celebrate 30 years. You can be rest assured that we will do our utterly best to celebrate this in grand style and bring our massive hellfire!


Many of you are also asking us about a follow up to our highly acclaimed "Where Shadows Forever Reign"album . All we can say at this point, is that we have begin to work on new material. We have an idea, we have a theme in mind. And our plan is to keep working on new material between tours. However, as its very early in the writing process, we can´t say much more, but as always, it will definitely be worth your wait!!

Many more things will be unveiled during 2019, we're not being lazy behind the scene.
The most recent thing being loads of new merch designs that you can get your hands on from our official webstore at www.diaboliswear.com

We would like to thank you all out there for your endless dedication & support! Make sure to keep you up to date with our activities on our official website at www.darkfuneral.se as well as on our social media channels.

We wish you all a great 2019 in the name of Satan!
Sincerely, Dark Funeral

LORD AHRIMAN RECEIVES SKAP'S METAL AWARD

LORD AHRIMAN RECEIVES SKAP'S METAL AWARD
SKAP's motivation: He alone sits on the throne of the kingdom of dark metal. He creates raging music with moods and sounds that send shivers down the spine and are loved by fans all over the world.
 
Watch a video when Lord Ahriman recieves SKAP's Metal Award at Fashing, Stockholm, Sweden on December 10, 2018. https://youtu.be/mk7BUcpFdxg
 
 
Swedish music creators rule! To celebrate all these creators, SKAP (the Swedish Society of Songwriters, Composers and Authors) presents awards each year to the people who create the music we love. This year, 22 awards are presented in categories including Hip hop, Metal, Pop, Rock, Soundtrack, Folk music, Musical improvisation and Soul. Awardees include Fricky, Tove Strength, Matti Ollikainen, Kaliffa, Jëlly and Sara Parkman. The prize sum is SEK 40 000.
 
– What distinguishes SKAP's awards from many others in the industry is that they not only are based on commercial success, but highlight quality, and are a recognition and token of appreciation from other colleagues. This makes it a matter of much more than the prize money. When I see the awardees, not only do I feel happy, but also proud of what Swedish music creators achieve year after year, says SKAP Executive Chairman, Alfons Karabuda.
 
Those who receive SKAP's awards are music creators of different genres, anything from electro pop via musical to jazz. The awards will be presented at three ceremonies: in Malmö, Gothenburg and Stockholm.
 
– It is amazingly inspiring to see such a bunch of talented colleagues get recognition for their talent and hard work. Every year I dig into the music production of the awardees to listen, and this year's awardees are not likely to disappoint anyone. Congratulations, says Alfons Karabuda.
 
SKAP's prizes are awarded to the following music creators:

Dark Funeral – konstnärsskap, ritualer och marknadsföring

Det är mörkt och bistert utanför spelstället Kraken i Stockholm. Lika kyligt är det i den turnébuss vi har placerat oss i tillsammans med sångaren i Dark Funeral. Om några få timmar ska bandet dra på sig full stridmundering och äntra scenen för att fira 25 år i Satans tjänst. I väntan på detta diskuterar vi konstnärsskap och marknadsföring.

IN SWEDISH......

LORD AHRIMAN FÅR SKAP'S METALPRIS

SKAP:s motivering: Han sitter ensam på tronen i den mörka metallens kungarike. Han skapar furiös musik med stämningar och klanger som får det att ila längs ryggraden och som älskas av fans över hela världen.

ÅRETS SKAP-PRISER 2018

Svensk musik äger! 22 musikskapare prisas i kategorier som hiphop, metal, filmmusik, folkmusik med flera. Prissumman på 40.000 kr går bland annat till Amanda Ginsburg (jazz), Mikael ”Lord Ahriman” Svanberg (metal), Lena Jonsson (folkmusik) och Erik ”Fricky” Friman (hiphop).

– Det som skiljer SKAP:s priser från många andra i branschen är att de inte bara utgår från kommersiella framgångar utan sätter ljuset på kvalitet, och är ett erkännande och tecken på uppskattning från andra kollegor. När jag ser pristagarna blir jag inte bara glad utan också stolt över vad svenska musikskapare åstadkommer år efter år, säger SKAP:s ordförande Alfons Karabuda.

SKAP:s priser delas ut till följande musikskapare:

Dark Funeral – Den som inte vågar bryta ny mark kommer ingenstans

CRANKITUP: Hur ska en inre demon tyglas och vad för roll som musiker kan du visa sina fans ? Solen skiner denna försommardag när Dark Funerals bandgeneral och CrankItUps utsände slår sig ned på en bänk utanför Kraken i Stockholm för att diskutera den filosofi som fortsätter att driva bandet framåt mot deras 25-årsjubileum.

Limited 2018 US Tour items are now available! Free postage for US Residents!

After our extremely successful US/CAN tour together with Septicflesh and Thy Antichrist, that ended about a month ago, we are having a sale of tour merch. Due to extremely popular designs we didn't manage to have a full inventory for all the gigs. And we know that many of you left the shows empty handed, simply because we ran out of items. This is your chance to solve that!

Dark Funeral achieved nothing less than breathing new life into a genre that seemed to have become somewhat antiquated and musty.

Deaf Forever Magazine (Germany)

Dark Funeral’s deft counterbalancing of battering ultra-violence and impeccably paced restraint is nothing short of electrifying.

Terrorizer (UK)

It feels good once more to have a band like Dark Funeral who don’t beat around the bush and just go for the throat with the subtlety of a wolf on steroids.

Metal Hammer (UK)
