DARK FUNERAL

Release Year: 2021
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: infernal punishing intense black metal

fourth full-length in ten years - not that hyper active schedule you may think, yet each and every opus of this notorious infernal, ominous, hyperfast and punishing black metal horde is close to perfection, otherwise they would not bother to crawl out of their dark lair at all; eight piercing stabwounds of unstoppable armageddon with a title Destroy All Holiness sums up one the most significant Dark Funeral albums [2005] to date, with such unbeatable loads of intense, relentless, and atmospheric blasphemy as 666 Voices Inside and Atrum Regina, where blistering guitar riffs cut through the darkness, backed up by Caligula’s raw and furious shrieks; recent French gatefold sleeve black 180g vinyl edition is expanded with previously unseen photos and extensive liner notes by Olivier Badin, as well as instrumental Atrum Regina version and rerecorded Open The Gates classic as bonus, limited to 400 units
