I only heard Funeral For A Friend's music cuz years ago some wise-guy listening station tricked me into granting an audience to their fancy debut album. I screwed up cuz my attention was devoted to picking gross hairs off these gnarly public headphones and to unkinking their fucked-up cord, and I thought I'd pressed the [...]
Photo: Finn Beales / madebyfinn.com This summer just hasn't felt right since I haven't been able to spend any time in a muddy field enjoying some live music. I managed to rectify this on Sunday courtesy of Merthyr Rock. The festival's inaugural year was undoubtedly a success. To be honest, I'm surprised it's taken so long since the demise of The Full Ponty for someone to bring a festival to South Wales considering the bands it has produced in the past 10-15 years, a selling point that many live events tend to lack and [...]

Today's 1000 Minutes post is one I've been debating for a little while. The eleven songs (Yes eleven, its a real bumper of a post) I'm including today are probably not what you'd call the 'coolest' of choices and who knows, I may even risk losing a few readers because of them. BUT as I kept reminding myself, this project is about me charting the songs that made an impact on my life, songs that I could never imagine not hearing again and songs that hold important memories. Now if I'm true to this idea, then I have to include [...]
Funeral For A Friend played a low-key show at London Highbury Garage with Rise To Remain on 25 March 2011. As if we were going to miss this!
A BON JOVI GREATEST HITS ALBUM IS STILL THE #2 "HARD MUSIC" ALBUM IN ALL THE LAND. What the fuck, people?! Thankfully the #1 spot belongs to Rise Against, a band I don't particularly care for but whom people seem to dig and at least seem legit. The huge number of units their new album [...]
Wale's favourite woe wranglers; Funeral For A Friend (FFAF) follow up the release of the varied, power ballad littered fifth album 'Welcome Home Armageddon'. By choosing the rhythm rustling and longing rock sojourn of 'Sixteen', as the latest single to promote their continuing reputation as foraging and expansive rockers. FFAF are backing their yearning rattling percussion pushed aspect of its set up, in order to keep their growing grass roots base of fans contented. Davies-Kreye's' slightly nasal pushed and harrowingly emotive vocals that are backed to the hilt by stern percussion and spindling rock guitars, shows that FFAF [...]
Funeral For A Friend Welcome Home Armageddon Distiller Records 14 March 2011 by Raziq Rauf You'd be forgiven for thinking that Funeral for a Friend were thinking about winding down after the line-up changes of recent years and the release of 2009's best-of set, Your History Is Mine. But Welcome Home Armageddon proves quite the [...]

There are some bands in the world that you just can't understand why people like so much. You know why they have fans, but can't understand the unequivocal admiration from their legions of followers. One of these bands are the Welsh rockers Funeral for a Friend . Described by many as screamo, post-hardcore or even emo, Funeral for a Friend manage to encapsulate the minds and hearts of 14-year old girls. Since their inception in 2003 with 'Casually Dressed and Deep In Conversation', FFAF have grown into one of the UK's biggest post-hardcore acts [...]

After a turbulent year in 2010 with the announcement of the departure of guitarist Darran Smith, Funeral For A Friend are set to release their next single 'Sixteen', due for general release on 28th March. It's the band at their peppy, poppiest best, tempting listeners to sing along and blast the song far and wide. Drummer / vocalist Ryan Richards explains 'Sixteen's genesis as an acoustic skeleton that Matt Davies-Kreye (vocals) originally came up with, but grew as each member added their own parts: 'it was definitely a [...]

Seems like there's been a spate of significant band signings over the last week in the world of metal. Despite all the industry's woes, it's good to know that labels are still investing in bands.
