Biography

It all began in Sweden in 1993, when Lord Ahriman and Blackmoon founded the infernal war machine we now know as Dark Funeral, one of the most intense Black Metal acts ever!

In January 1994 the legendary, self-titled and self-financed debut mini album were recorded at Dan Swanös Uni-Sound Studio and it was released upon the un-expecting masses on May 4th the same year.

Since then a lot of things has happened. The line-up has changed, several amazing albums has been released and Dark Funeral has toured no less than 35 different countries with acts as Dimmu Borgir, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Immortal and many more. The album "Diabolis Interium" was nominated as best metal album at P3 Guld awards and in Oct 2002 they played in Singapore as the first foreign band in ten years (Metallica played there in the early 90´s). Their highly acclaimed live album "De Profundis Clamavi ad te Domine" was released in Europe by Regain Records and licensed to several other countries.
On January 20th 2005, Dark Funeral signed a new record deal with Regain Records and in late May the band entered Dug Out Studios together with producer Daniel Bergstrand (Meshuggah, In Flames, Strapping Young Lad, Behemoth a.s.o.) and c/o producer Örjan Örnkloo to begin the work and recording of their new, long awaited Satanic Symphony. Roughly delayed the band finally completed their recording session on July 15th. On Aug 8th, the band returned to Dug Out Studios to lay down the final vocal parts and do the final mixing of the album. Finally, on August the 18th Dark Funerals new Masterpiece "Attero Totus Sanctus" was completed!
