Dark Funeral - Shadows Over Transylvania (Unisound Version)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY-_iWQvxms

The Secrets of the Black Arts (1996)

The album was originally recorded at Unisound studios with a producer with limited knowledge of his craft. In 2007 it was remastered and remixed and eventually released on cd as a bonus disc on the special edition of The Secret of the Black Arts. in 2013.

The album itself was re-recorded in June 1995 at Abyss Studios with soon to be legendary producer Peter Tagtgren. It was his first producing job other than his own band Hypocrisy.

I've never actually listened to a Dark Funeral album...

That's quite surprising. I really like them.

They are fairly Satanic with some members being Satanists from the LaVey school.

Despite having been recording since 96 they have only released six albums and a couple of ep's. I first bought one of their's because the cover smelled of leather - 2001's Diabolis Interium.

Incidentally the limited edition cd of Cathedral's Garden of Unearthly Delights smells of apples.

I'm listening to the above album right now and I like it. I can see why I probably never listened to them back in the day. Aside from Immortal I avoided bands with really fast drums, I preferred the more mid paced bands. I must have heard one of their songs on a compilation and just never bought one of their CDs.

There are probably quite a few 'big' bands I've not heard for various reason, for example, although I know about the controversy I've never listened to Gorgoroth, also the only Dimmu album I've ever listened to is Stormblåst!!

Oh add Marduk to that too, never listened to even one song :lol:

I don't have any Gorgoroth albums. But Dimmu are popular round these parts. I bought their limited versions when they first came out. Weird fold out sleeves and box sets. Seemed a good idea at the time but now, they take up too much space. Haha.

Panzer Division Marduk is ****ing awesome.

I didn't realise it had been remastered. The opening title track rips your head off.
