34!! Tropes:
35
36* AdaptationalBadass: The lyrics for "Nightwing" are about Radu Vladislas from the ''Film/{{Subspecies}}'' series. He's nowhere near as frightening in the movies as the song makes him out to be.
37* AttackAttackAttack: Line from the song "Baptism of Fire".
38* EpicRocking: Some of their songs, like "Perish and Flames" and "Blutrauche" from ''Plague Angel'', both of which approach eight minutes in length.
39* FakeOutFadeOut: In "Burn My Coffin".
40* HorribleHistoryMetal: The second half of ''Nightwing'' is about UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler.
41* IAmTheBand: Guitarist Morgan Hakansson is the only original member, and seems to make many of the important decisions regarding the band's direction. However, from ''Plague Angel'' onward, the lineup has remained pretty consistent, and Morgan confirms that the other members take an active role in the songwriting process.
42* ILoveTheDead: The song "Bleached Bones" from ''WorldFuneral''.
43* LoudnessWar: On most of their releases. Unsurprisingly it becomes really noticeable with the Peter Tägtgren-produced material (Tägtgren is notorious for this sort of thing) and hasn't really let up since.
44%%* '''RockMeAsmodeus'''
45* ShoutOut: Vocalist Daniel Rostén,(who we now know as Mortuus) once took the name [[Literature/TheElricSaga Arioch]] as a pseudonym, which is also the name he uses as the sole member of Funeral Mist.
46* ThoseWackyNazis: A common lyrical subject. They have many songs sung from the Nazis' perspective, although the band members themselves have noted that they are not National Socialists (and in a bit of ArtisticLicenseHistory, the Nazis' victims are switched from Jews to Christians for the most part).
