Funeral For A Friend - Best Friends And Hospital BedsFuneral For A Friend – Best Friends And Hospital Beds

Funeral For A Friend have just announced that they have finished working with Romesh Dodangoda on their sixth studio album ‘Conduit’ which is due for release on the 28th January 2013 and instead of making fans wait until the new year to hear any new music they have just unleashed their new single ‘Best Friends And Hospital Beds’.

‘Best Friends And Hospital Beds’ is a song which pretty much everyone in the world can relate to as it is about friendship and death which everyone is going to experience at some point in their life, musically the song is a short burst of frantic energy running at just under the 3minute mark, it’s a lot heavier than the songs on their last couple of albums and part of me thinks this is down to ex Rise To Remain drummer Pat Lundy becoming the permanent Funeral For A Friend drummer as he makes a massive impact here with a mad flurry of drum beats, whilst Matt Davies vocals take you on a mad rollercoaster ride.

It seems that Funeral For A Friend are back bigger and better than ever with a whole new lease of life and a slight change of direction which takes them back to their heavier early days, roll on January 2013 when ‘Conduit’ is unleashed on the world.

5/5
