4 out of 5 stars Chilly DF Choons.......2006-07-29

This spiky mini-album uncommonly uses strong reverb on the vocals - possibly heresy, but I think it sounds good that way. The actual voice is quite tortured and not so pleasant. The playing is not Meshuggah tight, but still pretty good. And, the sound quality is a little soft. A remaster might give it more punch, even accounting for the Black thing of narrowly chiseled frequencies, little bass and a lack of dynamic range. But in spite of all this grumbling, I'd say this still hits on all cylinders. It's the rare Black Metal that isn't obnoxiously repetitive or self-defeatingly lo-fi. These guys do something (slightly) different in a good way. But note the short run time!

5 out of 5 stars THE CD FROM HELL.......2005-09-16

This is Dark Funeral's first CD plus 2 cover tracks. I haven't heard the cover tracks, so I can only comment on the first 4 track.

You hear the gates open and close behind you in a very evil and gloomy sounding way on the intro(not plain and boring like on Deicide's debut album) and then it hits you like a volcanic erruption. The vocals are not cheap shrieks, there are multiple tones of treble/mid/bass in the vocals, and his style is something I have never heard before or after I heard this. The guitars sound a bit like that of the band Dissection (which I like very much), but the vocals are not whiney like Dissection's vocalist. These are the most terrifying vocals you will ever hear, actually sounds demonic, not like some dumb joke like the band Immortal's vocalist puts forth (I used to like Immortal, I don't hate them or their music, I just can't take it seriously anymore (Black Metal is a serious genre, when I want comedy I listen to Mr.Bungle). Anyway, if you need a totally brutal Black Metal CD that can live in your CD player instead of gathering dust, then this one is what you are looking for. I can listen to this CD all day non-stop and still not get bored of it.

"SAAAAAAYYYTAAAAAAN"......

5 out of 5 stars Brutal!!.......2003-06-26

All i can say is that this is one of the most brutal black metal bands ever!!Enry sond is fast, brutal, satanic. I LOVE IT. Its a remastered version of their first cd. After this, a black metal band that will go down in history was created. buy this if your a black metal fan

5 out of 5 stars Brutal, evil black metal.......2003-04-17

This is a re-release of Dark Funeral's first CD with 2 bonus cover songs added on. Basically, if you like brutal, violent, fast black metal like Marduk you will probably like this. The production on this CD is surprisingly good considering it was released at a time when Dark Funeral was relatively poor. Anyways, if you are a true black metal fan you probably already own this so I won't say anything more except BUY THIS! Oh yeah and the best song is "In the Sign of the Horns". Hail Black Metal
