Listen to the American melodic black/death metallers', THE FUNERAL PYRE, upcoming album entitled ‘Vultures Of Dawn’ at this location (LambGoat). The album will be released on June 8th, 2010 (8. 6. 2010) through Prosthetic Records.
THE FUNERAL PYRE formed in 2001 and released an EP entitled ‘Whispering To The Shadows’ under the name ENVILENT in 2002. The following year the newly named band released another EP, ‘October’, and in 2004 they self-released first full-length, ‘Immersed By The Flames Of Mankind’ . THE FUNERAL PYRE's second studio album, ‘The Nature Of Betrayal’, released in 2006 through Creator Destructor Records, caught the attention of Prosthetic Records that re-released the album the following year. Group's next album, ‘Wounds’, was the first not to feature keyboards, since they parted ways with long time keyboardist, Daniella Jones citing musical differences and replacing her with second guitarist. Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic remarked on band's change of musical direction: “The only thing left smelling remotely like death metal (or any other kind of metal) was producer Eric Rutan (MORBID ANGEL/HATE ETERNAL). Obviously, this decisive change of direction may seem like bad news to fans who were perfectly happy with those previous albums and their more textured songwriting tableau, but it's great news for all those in unfailing league with Satan. And despite having seemingly limited their own creative options thus, fact is THE FUNERAL PYRE still manage to inject a fair amount of deliciously despairing melodies and necessary tempo changes into their newfound black metal austerity.”
THE FUNERAL PYRE features: Jimmy Joyce – guitar, Alex Hernandez – drums, John Strachan – vocals, Adam Campbell – bass and Justin Garcia – guitar.
