Dark Funeral announce new live album ‘A Beast To Praise’

DARK FUNERAL have announced a brand new live album!

The upcoming release, titled A Beast To Praise, is the latest offering from the Swedish black metal legends and is scheduled to be released on August 21st, 2026 via Century Media Records. The album captures the band’s devastating live performance at Fållan in Stockholm in 2022 in support of their 2022 studio album We Are The Apocalypse.

Alongside the announcement, the band have released the live single The Arrival Of Satan’s Empire, which arrives with an accompanying live video as the first preview of the upcoming record.

Speaking about the new release, Lord Ahriman shares, A Beast To Praise (Live at Fållan, Stockholm) captures a very important moment in the history of DARK FUNERAL — not only the live release ritual for We Are The Apocalypse, but also our return to the stage after years of silence during the pandemic. That night at Fållan was intense in every possible way. The energy in the room, the fire, the audience and the atmosphere all came together into something far beyond an ordinary concert. This release is the immortal document of that night. With the release of this live album and the upcoming European touring cycle in the fall of 2026, we now close the chapter surrounding We Are The Apocalypse. At the same time, we are already deeply focused on the next era of DARK FUNERAL and hard at work creating new material for what will become our next studio album, planned for release in 2027. And as one chapter closes, a new one is already taking shape — bigger, darker and more epic than ever before…”
