Darkthrone- Under A Funeral Moon

Label: Peaceville

Reissued 10/27/2023, Originally released 1993

MARKING 30 YEARS SINCE RELEASE, DARKTHRONE'S 1993 PURE NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL MASTERPIECE, NOW ON SPECIAL LIMITED MARBLE VINYL. ‘Under A Funeral Moon’, Darkthrone's third album, was originally released by Peaceville in 1993. The album is a bleak reflection of contemporary times, featuring harsh guitar riffage & hateful vocals in what was the band’s first 100% pure black metal opus; a work completely stripped of the death metal traces of former releases & in its place, a stark & primitive execution. This was aided by an intentionally lo-fi sound that is powerfully cold & entirely unconcerned with any modern-day aesthetics. ‘Under A Funeral Moon’ is the album that many Darkthrone fans hail as the ultimate manifesto for Black Metal.
