New Funeral for a Friend album - Hours

[Becci]

Im on my second listen through at the minute
Definate stand out tracks are Drive, History and End of Nothing
Its alot mellower then Casually Dressed in Deep Conversation but is definatly very good.
Anyone else got a copy?

[mewithcoldplay]

I love that there's hardly any screaming in it.

"History" is definitely my favourite track off the album.

[Vanity__Dearest]

haven't heard it...these guys without screaming could kick alot of ass tho....i hope i can get to getting it soon.

[papageorge]

yea no screaming in this album whatsoever
favourite track - all the rage

[AShannon04]

when does it come out again?

EDIT: oh shit, nevermind. I never realized it came out already

[Throwback]

I can't choose between All the Rage or History as my favorite song. All the Rage's chorus at the end is awesome and History is just a great mid-tempo song.

[SePaMc]

Anyone get this at Best Buy?

My funds are low, so I want to know if it will have the exclusive track You Want Romance? for very long....

Also wondering if this song is good, and worth getting the cd right away for.

my thought exactly.

[Trainsaw]

its a solid album, not as good as their old stuff but its still a good cd

[LostSymphonies]

I miss the screaming..even alittle bit would be nice..but regardless this is an amazing album

[nerogtr]

i got it at best buy so it came with an extra track "you want romance?". its AWESOME. its kinda an ode to the casually dressed album (higher energy with screaming). its def more mellow than their older stuff but it is still great. i think part of the problem with the cd is the way the vocals were mixed, they are kinda washy and they sit back in the mix. this seems to take away from some of the energetic intrumentals. SOLID album though. go buy it.

[duffe]

good full lenght.

[Alex Djaferis]

great album. End of Nothing, Roses For The Dead = wow wow wow.

[AloneInTheDark]

Well, I just went out to pick this up, and man I love this album. It's sticking to me right away, I love Streetcar, the intro is really cool, the dial tone blends into the guitars, sounds very impressive. The whole album is great from what I heard the first few times around.

[Brendan W]

the slow songs are retarted. its ok. this kind of music is kind of over played. there first record through ferret was decent. the second only had 2 or 3 good songs on it. its aight.

This type is over played and not the "screamo" sound they had?

Right.

WORD.

i miss the screaming too...

oh well their shows will have a nice mix of everything now.

excited to see them on warped.

[TranslateTheNam]

its a solid album, not as good as their old stuff but its still a good cd


second that, FFAF are supposed to have a little screaming.....they got some good guitar players tho

[AloneInTheDark]

Damn..I love this album, I cannot get enough! I love Streetcar..it's so awesome. The guitar intro is awesome...they do have some good guitar players..and the drums are so quick and so powerful...wow.

[andrewlterry]

Yeah, they said there would be less screaming in the new album. They said they didn't want to scream just for the sake of screaming. I like that. Too many bands scream for no reason.

[Brendan W]

This type is over played and not the "screamo" sound they had?

Right.


its still the same type of music, it sounds like the same band. they just lost that one element. yeah, i think that the kind of heavy emo thing is getting dull, so many bands are doing records like this these days. but thats just my opinion, so there is no point in making it seem like im wrong or something.

peace!

[DemolitionLover]

I fucking love this CD. The guitarists are amazing too.
Favorite songs: All the Rage, Streetcar, and History

[still_life]

Worst album cover ever

[Alex Djaferis]

Worst album cover ever

totally. its the one downer for me when its comes to the cd.

[Glassjawguy]

It's an ok album but that's all. Nowhere near as good as their earlier stuff.

[xsavesthelinex]

after my first listen i wasn't to impressed, hopefully it will grow on me

[youcomebeforeyo]

Will have to listen to it soon. Chur for them taking out the screams and evolving from their first album.

[Illside]

It definitely grew on me.. It's one damn solid album.

[Brendan W]

totally. its the one downer for me when its comes to the cd.


i thought the art was cool. if you look in the inside its like an evolution of what school is like/style. it was cool that it had some sort of meaning and social commentary rather than some blood splatters and fancy cursive writing like all the other bands around today.

[Spike]

Love the album, love the band. It's a big step from Casually Dressed and a change..kudos for FFAF for taking that risk and growing.

The song Sonny is powerful..Matt has an incredible voice too, in my opinion.

[believethehyph]

Good album in general in my opnion. Good mix of songs, my favourites are "All The Rage", "Monsters" and "End of Nothing".

[sundaysetsashes]

ur sig is hilarious

[outofkilter]

I was pretty fond of the first one.
I thought this one seemed a bit bland.

But I'm kind of over my pop-punk with screaming phase.

I recommend you all hunt down the band Envy from Japan.
They'll change your life :)

[sundaysetsashes]

funeral for a friend is certainly not pop punk with screaming.

[outofkilter]

Yeah...you're right.
It's watered down Iron Maiden riffs and a fake American accent. ;)

I'm just kidding by the way, they're a lot better than their contemporarys :)

[sundaysetsashes]

all british singers sound like americans to me.

[xglassjawx]

Funeral For A Friend are terrible

[sundaysetsashes]

i dont think they are, but hours wasnt up to par with their previous stuff

[xglassjawx]

Nah, their albums are awful IMO, they just have nothing different, they're so bland and boring, their EPs were good but i suppose most british bands are best right before they get big at the moment, but that's just my opinion

[sundaysetsashes]

i can see what you're saying

[xglassjawx]

Yeah, i actually still have a few of their old songs on my xbox, but i haven't played my xbox for freaking years lol

[sundaysetsashes]

i love the song streetcar thought. its catchy

[xglassjawx]

I don't think i've heard it, i may check it out, but im listenning to brand new at the moment, and i'd NEVER swap class like brand new for ffaf haha, ffaf are HEEEEERRRRUUUUUUUUGE here, it's well annoying

[sundaysetsashes]

yeah it says that they are on UKAtlantic but Ferret over here. so i guessed they were big over in the uk

[xglassjawx]

Yeah too big lol

[sundaysetsashes]

thats like MCR here

[xglassjawx]

And here! But i love mcr lol, they're like one of my favourite bands

[sundaysetsashes]

same. but i keep hearing about them wheever i go, people are always telling me stuff i already know about them, its getting exhausting because i have to hear about them whenever i step out the front door

[xglassjawx]

Yeah it's like over here people who listen to freaking usher and eminem are listening to mcr, but i don't think it matters, i like them whatever

[sundaysetsashes]

have u heard anything new by them recently? besides astro zombies

[xglassjawx]

No and is astro zombies a new MCR song?

[sundaysetsashes]

its a cover (the misfits)

[xglassjawx]

Ah right i see, one of my friends is obsessed with the misfits lol

[mcfly21]

This album is awesome!! Not as good as their first one, but still an awesome cd

[Stereo Mike]

FFAF suck hard. Both albums are pieces of shit.

[joelmole]

well with everyone talking about my chemical romance on here i dont really wanna post anything.


...i do like hours though. (the roses of the dead riff owns you all)

[btbam > you]

sucks.. just like all ffaf

[xglassjawx]

FFAF suck hard. Both albums are pieces of shit.
Totally

[bleed me bleu]

the slow songs are retarted. its ok. this kind of music is kind of over played. there first record through ferret was decent. the second only had 2 or 3 good songs on it. its aight.
i love the slow songs on the album, some of the lyrics are a little corny and forceful at times, the osund is flawless. "all the rage" is a fuckiing great song. at times in this album i miss the screeaming, like in alvarez, or hopitality, all im thinkg is "why isnt he wailing?"
thats just me.

[btbam > you]

ffaf sucks. get over it.

[a speedo model]

i wasn't impressed with this CD at all. all the rage is an okay song, but even it isn't all that. i guess i expected this CD to be a really big step up from their last one but it just sounded the same, only with no clever song titles and no screaming.

[gil_ag]

Good cd. My fav track is Alvarez though
