NEWS: Dark Funeral await the nightfall?

18th March will see the long-awaited seventh full-length album “We Are The Apocalypse” from Swedish Black Metal Masters Dark Funeral surface via Century Media and having had the first taste with “Let The Devil In“, something of an introvert journey, contemplating the darkness within, their second single “Nightfall” is the diametral opposite. A display of blistering fury, invoking the seven witches, Lamashtu, to bring forth the eternal night. The band have announced a string of European tour dates to follow the release including a pair upon our shores…

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.”
