Dark Funeral remains true to its twisted version of brutal black metal in uncompromising fashion on album number four, almost flaunting its unrelenting speed and atonality in the faces of the group's Scandinavian peers, who are generally much more experimental.

Diabolis Interium will do little to garner the attention of anyone but the most devoted fans, even given the band's overly flamboyant stage shows. ~ Brian O'Neill
