Swedish black metal giants Dark Funeral have announced a brand new full-length album entitled We Are The Apocalypse set for release on March 18, 2022. This latest release will be the group’s seventh album and follows on from their previous album, Where Shadows Forever Reign, which was released in 2016.

The band previously shared news of their upcoming album when they announced on their social media “We have now officially completed the recording of our new (yet untitled) full-length album at 33 together with producer Daniel Bergstrand and studio technician Fredrik Thordendal. We have had 5 fantastic, but very intense weeks in the studio, but there is no time to rest. There are still many things left to prepare and fix before the album is ready for release”

Dark Funeral has also announced their album will be unveiled by a release show on March 19th at Fållan in Stockholm, Sweden, supported by special guests Samael and Eleine. The band said of Samael in a press release “they are genuine legends and a band that never stopped evolving. We are incredibly proud to have them with us as very special guests!”.

They then went on to comment on their other support act “The Swedish dark symphonic metal band Eleine will be opening the night and contribute in showing that the Devil’s Music have both width and depth.” You can see the release show poster below.

They also discussed their feelings in anticipation of the show “We are looking forward to an incredibly powerful experience on the 19th of March and we encourage you all to secure your tickets to join us. Our new album is finally ready and we can’t wait to include our new music in our set lists. This event will open those gates and we want you to be there with us!
