Dark Funeral to release a new live album “A Beast To Praise” – first single out now

The new live album “A Beast To Praise” by Swedish black metal veterans Dark Funeral will be released on August 21st by Century Media, as per theprp. In 2022, a 13-track performance was recorded at Fållan in Stockholm, Sweden, the band’s hometown. The footage of “The Arrival Of Satan’s Empire” from the set, which was just released today, June 19, is shown below.

‘A Beast To Praise’ (Live at Fållan, Stockholm) captures a very important moment in the history of Dark Funeral — not only the live release ritual for ‘We Are The Apocalypse,’ but also our return to the stage after years of silence during the pandemic. That night at Fållan was intense in every possible way. The energy in the room, the fire, the audience and the atmosphere all came together into something far beyond an ordinary concert.

This release is the immortal document of that night. With the release of this live album and the upcoming European touring cycle in the fall of 2026, we now close the chapter surrounding ‘We Are The Apocalypse.’ At the same time, we are already deeply focused on the next era of Dark Funeral and hard at work creating new material for what will become our next studio album, planned for release in 2027. And as one chapter closes, a new one is already taking shape — bigger, darker and more epic than ever before… – Lord Ahriman
