A year later after they had released the debut MCD "Dark Funeral" (which was re-released again with different cover art, title and bonus songs) they signed on with No Fashion Records. On No Fashion they continued to release albums but later joined Regain Records.
Former member Equimanthorn is NOT the same guy who now plays in Pest (Swe)
Not to be confused with a Danish band called "Dark Funeral", which released a demo called "In Thy Forest" 1993 with keyboard-ambient-sound only. The Swedish band Dark Funeral here never recorded a demo.
DO NOT ADD the split with Von entitled "Devil Pigs" as it is a bootleg!
