FUNERAL - tristesse & tragedies to be re-released

[Erik]

april 5th in europe
april 17th in the people's republic of vinnland

as a 2cd set on firebox rekords/firedoom

this is a pairing of funeral (nor)'s both long OOP, both highly acclaimed demo & MCD. ESSENTIAL, ESSENTIAL fucken listening for anyone into deathdoom or funeral doom. it doesn't sound much like "in fields of pestilent grief" if you've only heard that one. TRUE INNOVATORS. HEIL AND KILL.

TRULY TRAGICAL! i love the girl singer and i love funeral doom in norwegian and i love the nekrosound... SOM SKYGGEFULLE BLOMSTER!

trivia for those not in the know: that guy on the cover of abyssic hate "suicidal emotions"... that's einar, bassist of funeral. he killed himself a few years back. no FAKE EMOTIONS here.

Yea this is a must purchase.

 

[Dark One]

Thanks. Checked it out - a little too slow paced for my tastes, but certainly well executed and just pours emotion everywhere. If you're into slower paced doom, this will be right up your alley - I just prefer something a little more uptempo.

The band is not for everyone (even for doom). This is a plodding, last minutes of your life, dirge. The vocals are extremly monotone but perfect for the music. The little classical guitar parts that pop up are nicely done as well.

I sold my Tristesse original on Ebay for $150 about 10 months ago. I bought it in a used bin for $5. It ruled.
