DARK FUNERAL
Interview by Ken Morton Band Photo by Bartosz Szydlowski Live Photo by Jack Lue Swedish black metal legends Dark Funeral will be releasing their new full-length album We Are The Apocalypse on March 18th via Century Media Records - and it’s an intriguing underground masterwork! Featuring dynamic anthems such as Let The Devil In, When Our Vengeance Is Done and Nosferatu, We Are The Apocalypse is the perfect soundtrack for this dark and desolate pandemic age. Lord Ahriman (guitars), Heljarmadr (vocals), Chaq Mol (guitars), Jalomaah (drums), and Adra Melek (bass) are at the very height of their creativity, ready to unleash their latest and greatest chapter of scathing darkness upon the world at large. 26
Highwire Daze recently interviewed founding member Lord Ahriman to find out more about their gripping We Are The Apocalypse manifesto, their great respect for horror movies, touring the States, the upcoming 30-year anniversary of the band, and more! We Are The Apocalypse is such a powerful name for an album. Some would think it’s about the worldwide situation we are living in today, being like an apocalyptic event. Is there any overall story or concept behind that title? No, it was – every time you’re looking for a title, you want a title that really speaks for the whole record. Since we have different topics on this record and you can enter different kind of dark worlds, we tried to find a title that would really sum it all up. But of course, as the state of January/February 2022
