Swedish/German black metallers DARK FUNERAL have issued the following year-end update:

“We, DARK FUNERAL, would like to thank each and everyone of you for the tremendous support you have given us during 2012. It’s been an amazing year! And we are truly honored to have such a great legion of dedicated fans and supporters worldwide, thank you!

“2013 marks our 20th anniversary as a band. And you can be sure that we have lined up several surprises, including new and special 20th-anniversary releases for you. So be sure to keep checking our website(s) to not miss out any news and announcements. 2013 will be a spectacularly dark year!

“And last but not least. A massive hail goes out to our extremely dedicated street team! You totally rule!!!”

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

The new lineup of DARK FUNERAL — featuring the group’s latest additions, vocalist Nachtgarm (NEGATOR) and bassist Zornheym — made its live debut on last year’s Sweden Rock Cruise.

DARK FUNERAL in 2011 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
