Funeral For A Friend stream new album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 9 March 2011
Funeral For A Friend are streaming their new album, ‘Welcome Home Armageddon’, on their Facebook page, ahead of its release next week via Distiller Records. The band are also due to release a new single, ‘Sixteen’, on 28 Mar.
To listen, head over to www.facebook.com/funeralforafriend
Explaining the album’s title, vocalist Matt Davies-Kreye told CMU: “A friend of mine was mentioning how he felt that the best thing for the planet was for the human race to just drop dead and at times I can see and understand his way of thinking but a big part of me has this (probably) misguided faith in humanity to kind of steer the ship in the right direction for a change. So ‘Welcome Home Armageddon’ is the idea of patiently waiting for the end to arrive at your doorstep and give you a nice big hug”.
And if you fancy some more streaming music before Armageddon comes, hold on for Friday, when FFAF drummer Ryan Richards will be taking us through his ten favourite new Welsh bands for our Powers Of Ten playlist this week.
