About Funeral for a Friend

Funeral for a Friend is a Welsh post-hardcore band that emerged in the early 2000s, leaving a lasting impact on the alternative rock scene. Founded in 2001 in Bridgend, Wales, the band consisted of vocalist Matthew Davies-Kreye, guitarists Kris Roberts and Darran Smith, bassist Gareth Davies, and drummer Ryan Richards. With their energetic sound, emotionally charged lyrics, and dynamic live performances, Funeral for a Friend quickly gained a loyal following. The Funeral for a Friend's debut album, "Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation," released in 2003, received critical acclaim and is considered a seminal post-hardcore record. The album featured songs like "Juneau," "Escape Artists Never Die," and "Rookie of the Year," showcasing the band's ability to seamlessly blend heavy riffs with melodic hooks.

Following the success of their debut, the Funeral for a Friend band released several more albums, each exploring different musical territories while maintaining their signature sound. "Hours" (2005), "Tales Don't Tell Themselves" (2007), "Memory and Humanity" (2008), and "Welcome Home Armageddon" (2011) showcased the band's growth and evolution, incorporating elements of punk, alternative rock, and metal into their music. Over the years, Funeral for a Friend's dedication to their craft earned them several accolades and awards. They received multiple Kerrang! Awards, including Best British Band in 2005 and 2006. The Funeral for a Friend's albums consistently charted in the UK and gained recognition worldwide, solidifying their status as one of the leading bands in the post-hardcore genre.

Some notable songs from Funeral for a Friend's discography include "Streetcar," "Roses for the Dead," "History," "Into Oblivion (Reunion)," and "Escape Artists Never Die." These tracks highlight the band's ability to write intense, cathartic anthems that resonate with listeners. In 2023, Funeral for a Friend is set to commence a tour in honor of the 20th anniversary of their debut album, 'Casually Dressed and Deep in Conversation.' Expressing their disbelief at the passage of two decades, the Funeral for a Friend band shared their anticipation for revisiting the album that served as a turning point in their career. They expressed their excitement about performing the album in its entirety across various locations in the United Kingdom throughout October. In a press statement, Funeral for a Friend stated, "It feels pretty surreal to be celebrating 20 years of 'Casually Dressed...' already, but we're looking forward to diving back into the record that changed everything for us and to performing it front to back across the U.K. in October."
