Dark Empire Records was spawned in Cleveland during the early 1990s by Dwid Hellion of Integrity. Now almost 20 years later, the torch has been passed on to Dwid's son Max. For the second release on the label Max chose to work with The infamous Gehenna. The result is "Funeral Embrace," a five-song EP that showcases the most violent, barbaric, drug-crazed noise released by the band.
