DARK FUNERAL: Pro-Shot Footage Of WACKEN OPEN AIR Performance - Aug. 5, 2012
Professionally filmed video footage of DARK FUNERAL's August 4 performance at the Wacken Open Air festival in Wacken, Germany can be seen below.

DARK FUNERAL recently inked a three-album deal with Century Media Records.

Commented DARK FUNERAL guitarist and founding member Lord Ahriman: "Our bad luck with labels in the past has for sure been very frustrating. So it is with great pleasure to finally be able to turn the page, move on and start a new dark chapter in the DARK FUNERAL saga, as we join the great Century Media family. Century Media has more than enough proven to be a stable and highly professional label. And we are totally looking forward to this new cooperation, which I'm sure will prove to be very satisfying and successful for both parts. Hail the goat!"

Added Jens Prüter, head of A&R at Century Media in Europe: "I always respected DARK FUNERAL for their endurance and integrity. They've gone through some hard times, but never gave up and also never gave in to compromise on their musical and aesthetic vision. Almost 20 years after their formation, it's still the same powerhouse of unmerciful black metal and the new lineup is stronger and more focused than in the past. Thanks to Lord Ahriman and the whole band! Looking forward to their 20th anniversary in 2013 with a new album."

The new lineup of DARK FUNERAL — featuring the group's latest additions, vocalist Nachtgarm (NEGATOR) and bassist Zornheym — made its live debut on the Sweden Rock Cruise. The ship Tallink Silja Galaxy set sail from Stockholm, Sweden on October 6, 2011 and made a round trip to Turku, Finland before returning to Stockholm 23 hours later.

DARK FUNERAL last year parted ways with Regain Records. Lord Ahriman stated at the time, "Time went by and we didn't see any future whatsoever to continue to work with them."

DARK FUNERAL 2012 is:

Nachtgarm - Vocals
Lord Ahriman - Guitar
Chaq Mol - Guitar
Zornheym- Bass
Dominator - Drums

I like this band, they play fast.

The drummer does that blast beat thing

The guitarist uses a pick, and when he is thirsty, he drinks beer. He likes tea, but he doesn't drink it in public because he doesn't want people make fun of him because of that.

... i heard a vague rumor that they wear paint on their faces, those sad and angry expressions aren't real, and they wash them off when they get home, can anyone confirm this? ...

If this band (and other Black Metal bands) were to actually write some non retard level lyrics, didn't look like such fucking morons etc I may be able to listen to some of it. But how on earth can you watch this performance and do anything other than laugh. At least Alice Cooper and KISS straight out admit its all just a 'show' these Black Metal bands try to take themselves seriously. Its lame

No thanks, I'd rather not waste my time. Facepaint and Satan is not my thing. Again Kiss and Alice Cooper didn't act tough and try to take themselves seriously. Didn't burn churches or think its cool to do so etc. The entire Black Metal movement is retarded and is why Heavy Metal gets this bad reputation you speak of. I am an old School metal fan. Grew on on Slayer, Sodom, etc. Then progressed into Death Metal which was fun. Then came the black metal bands which I could never take a band full of grown balding men wearing facepaint and headbanging with synthesizers seriously. Sure many of them have great musicians and musically I can dig some of it. But the over all satan this, upside down cross that, in every single one of those bands is very lame and generic.

Corpsepaint... thats what they call it? hahaha.

Believe me I am not a mainstream poser. I am into grindcore bands, extreme death metal bands, etc. Sure there are some death metal bands that are cheesy as fuck but the majority sing about funny shit and don't take themselves too seriously. If you can honestly watch the video footage of this band above and take it seriously you have problems. It's childish music for retards. If not liking grown men play dress up is considered 'mainstream' then I guess you can label me that. I really don't care.

I'll stick to bands like Terrorizer, Suffocation, Nile, Bolt Thrower, Carcass, Napalm Death etc. You can go have fun playing dress up with your gay ass Black Metal bands

this is a legit form of music and entertainment, DF and marduk have been staying true to black metal for over 20 yrs and have worn facepaint since their inception. Its just a matter of taste and if you ever really listened to them without prejudice you would find that there are some great musicians in the black metal scene.

Dark Funeral is a pretty legendary B level 'kvlt' and one of the better non Norwegian Black Metal bands. I thought they sounded pretty tight, YouTube always thins things out and the new vocalist is replacing a legendary fellow.

Tons of people 'dig' black metal, you don't get it. Making comments about ANY heavy metal bands outfits is just stupid, all metal bands have some corny outfits.

Once again I have to say I hate the genrefication of metal, I pretty much listen to all forms of metal whether its grindcore, death, black, progressive,thrash, melodic, doom, whatever...the metal community should be more supportive of each other.

Except Machine Head, those dudes are douchebags and I will say it to their faces.

Most guys in their late 30s still pulling off the "scary" trick onstage, in full daylight, can be ridiculed for doing it. This is not even theatrics, just buffoonery.

If they'd walk the talk a bit more we might take notice. Playing Wacken is like parading a dress code.

i think it adds a cool visual effect to the show,their music is about darkness and dark fantasies. would it be better if they were up on stage in regular-ass clothes and no paint? i dont think so

Agree with you man. Why people post if they find this type of music not to their liking seems to be wanting to start shit just to start shit. Nothing constructive will come of it. Dark Funeral isn't a go to band for me but still think they put on a great live show.
