Dark Funeral was formed in 1993 by guitarists Lord Ahriman and Blackmoon, with vocalist/bassist Themgoroth and drummer Draugen. This lineup recorded the band's self-titled debut EP at the beginning of 1994, after which Draugen left and was replaced by Equimanthorn (Peter Eklund). During the summer of 1995, the band recorded its debut full-length album The Secrets of the Black Arts, after which Themgoroth and Equimanthorn were replaced by Emperor Magus Caligula (Magnus "Masse" Broberg) and Alzazmon (Tomas Asklund), respectively. Around a year later in July 1996, Blackmoon also left the band, replaced by Typhos (Henrik Ekeroth). Caligula, Ahriman, Typhos and Alzazmon recorded Vobiscum Satanas in 1997, which was released over a year later in April 1998.

During a tour in early 1998, Dominion (Matti Mäkelä) joined as a touring bassist; in the summer, Typhos left and Dominion switched to guitar, with Emperor Magus Caligula taking over bass duties again. Before a tour in the fall, Alzazmon was replaced by Gaahnfaust (Robert Lundin). After recording the EP Teach Children to Worship Satan, Gaahnfaust was replaced by Matte Modin in the summer of 2000, who debuted on the recording of Diabolis Interium early the next year. The subsequent touring cycle featured a string of touring bassists – first Mikael Hedlund, then Kenth "Lord K" Philipson, and finally Richard "Daemon" Cabeza. By the end of the year, Dominion had left the group due to a "lack of motivation", with Chaq Mol (Bo Anders Nymark) taking over early the next year.

In 2004, the lineup of Caligula, Ahriman, Chaq Mol, Daemon and Modin released the band's first live album, De Profundis Clamavi Ad Te Domine. The following summer, the group recorded its fourth album Attera Totus Sanctus with guest bassist Gustaf Hielm. Meanwhile, the band was touring with new bassist B-Force (Bennie Fors), who joined in time for a festival appearance at the beginning of 2005. This lineup remained stable until April 2007, when Emperor Magus Caligula announced that the group would no longer be working with Matte Modin, after blaming him for a number of show cancellations. In June, he was replaced by Dominator (Nils Fjellström). The new lineup, including bassist B-Force, recorded the fifth Dark Funeral album, Angelus Exuro pro Eternus, in 2009.
Dark Funeral underwent numerous lineup changes during the summer of 2010 – first, Emperor Magus Caligula announced that he would be leaving after a final show in August; shortly after the show in question, B-Force also announced his departure from the group; and in September, Lord Ahriman claimed that Dominator had left the band. By June 2011, the drummer had returned from his "short break" for personal reasons. A few weeks later, the group also announced the addition of Nachtgarm (Steve Marbs) on vocals and Zornheym (Tomas Nilsson) on bass. Nachtgarm only remained until early 2013, however, when he left for personal reasons. Emperor Magus Caligula returned for the band's 20th anniversary tour.

In December 2014, Dark Funeral announced the addition of vocalist Heljarmadr (Andreas Vingbäck) and bassist Natt (Andreas Fröberg). The new members debuted on the single "Nail Them to the Cross", which was released in February 2015. Natt left prior to the recording of Where Shadows Forever Reign in the spring of 2016, with guitarist Lord Ahriman performing bass on the album. For the subsequent touring cycle, Gustaf Hielm (who had previously performed on Attera Totus Sanctus) joined on bass. After the 2016 shows, Adra-Melek (Fredrik Isaksson) took over as touring bassist. In November 2017, the band announced that Dominator had left for a second time, with Jalomaah (Janne Jesper Jaloma) taking his place. Both members were later made full-time members, featuring on the group's next studio album We Are the Apocalypse in 2022.
