Artist: Funeral For A Friend

I lost track of Funeral For A Friend shortly after 2011's Welcome Home Armageddon tour/album cycle and I haven't honestly been that interested since - what with the ridiculous number of bands to instead win my attention in recent years. As it turns out FFAF have come up with a sixth album that surpasses a number of releases from their 10+ year career. I've got ' Nails ' here which is the latest single from Conduit , the reviving album in question. With a new [...]

Welsh rockers Funeral For A Friend are set to release a limited edition vinyl pressing of their critically acclaimed debut album Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation next month. Coinciding with the annual vinyl celebratory event Record Store Day . The re-release will also mark the 10th anniversary of the group's debut album and will be distributed in double gatefold white vinyl on April 20th. [...]

Somewhere tonight this record is the soundtrack for a boy sitting alone in his room staring at a photo he snapped of someone looking the other way. A candle drips upon his desk and he drips of angst. Together they smolder in the orange glow of melancholy -- despite fully functional track-lighting. Funeral for a Friend came to my attention in 2008, when I was checking out some screamo boy-bands in an auto-generated playlist on the Internet. I can't imagine a better defense of the virtues of the digital music age than the fact that five years later I [...]

Funeral For A Friend Conduit Distiller Records 28 January 2013 by Tom Doyle So why do you like music then? I mean really.

Hands up if you’ve written off Funeral for a Friend. I’ll admit I’ve had my doubts over the past few years. As members drifted off one by one, it appeared that the band had lost the stomach for it. This could not be further from the truth. "Conduit" sees a shift back to the band’s earlier style, largely ignoring the middle-of-the-road plod that was "Tales Don’t Tell Themselves" and settling on the heavier end of their personal spectrum. The result is a group that sound completely revitalised. The introduction of some new faces [...]

Yesterday the Vans Warped Tour made its first return to London since 1999. We didn't go. We do know some people who did go, and their reactions on Twitter ranged from "Oh my God! Onesies everywhere!"  to "Lasted just an hour at Warped" . We know that (some) of us here at Thrash Hits have a reputation as being surly No Fun Club -types, but by gosh, did we not see this as a challenge to make a listenable Sunday Spotify Slaylist about it. Oh God, did we try. [...]
