'FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND BACK TO THE BUS' COMPILATION OUT MARCH 19 !!!
Gold selling valley boys Funeral For A Friend unleash their contribution to the newly created 'Back To The Bus' series on March 19 2007.
>From the makers of the near legendary 'Back To Mine' and 'Under the Influence' collections, this CD is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Funeral For A Friend. Ever wondered what musical greats the guys listen to? Wonder no more, as 'Back To The Bus' shows you EXACTLY what the welsh wonders choose to get down to on their tour bus. It's like a free invite behind the scenes with one of the most exciting rock bands in the world right now.
And with their third album 'Tales Don't Tell Themselves' due out in May, there couldn't be a better time to investigate some of the creative inspirations for this award winning quintet.
The full tracklisting is:
1. QUEEN DON'T STOP ME NOW
2. DUB WAR ENEMY MAKER
3. EARTHTONE9 TAT TWAM ASI
4. FAITH NO MORE MIDLIFE CRISIS
5. FILTER TAKE A PICTURE
6. BOSTON MORE THAN A FEELING
7. VAN HALEN AIN'T TALKING ABOUT LOVE
8. FAR WATER AND SOLOUTIONS
9. MEGADETH HOLY WARS
10. THE HAUNTED BURY YOUR DEAD
11. PANTERA MOUTH FOR WAR
12. BLACK SABBATH BLACK SABBATH
13. LONGVIEW FURTHER
14. JOHNNY CASH FOLSOM PRISON BLUES
15. An Exclusive Funeral For A Friend Live Track
16. An Exclusive interview with the FFAF guys!
"Back to the Bus' is basically the soundtrack to Funeral for a Friend's touring life, and as you can see it's a fairly mixed bag," explains drummer Ryan Richards, "What songs are playing on the bus usually depends on the general mood at the time (party mood, singalong mood, chillout mood), or more likely which one of us gets to the stereo first. So I think we got all bases covered, a bit of Queen for party time, a bit of Boston for some air guitar action, a bit of Megadeth for some headbanging and bit of Johnny Cash for some chillout time and everywhere in between.
Some tunes you may be familiar with, some not so much, but hopefully you'll let us supply the soundtrack to your party...even if you don't have a bus!!
Party On! "
