THE FUNERAL PYRE Issues Tour Wrap-Up

July 16, 2007

Los Angeles blackened death metal band THE FUNERAL PYRE has just completed a month of touring — first on the "Welcome To Hell" tour with AS EDEN BURNS and CERBERUS, then on the "Thrash And Burn" tour with labelmates LIGHT THIS CITY and fellow SoCalers ANTAGONIST.

THE FUNERAL PYRE has offered this update from its Southern California home: "THE FUNERAL PYRE would collectively like to say thank you to all the bands we toured with this summer and to all the bands that we were able to share the stage with. It was an honor. Also, thank you to all who came out to support us, or if you heard us for the first time. We had a wonderful time meeting new people again and of course thrashing in a ton of cities. We hope that you, the fans, enjoyed what we brought to the table. With that being said, we'll be playing some local shows throughout the fall, maybe another tour, we're not sure yet. But we will be playing shows and working on new material...Which brings us here.

"We have been working on the new record in between shows, tours, and our day jobs. We are hoping that with this record we can take whatever sound we have to the next level. But only time will tell. Some songtitles we have thus far include 'Thieves', 'Wounds' and 'Devourer'. The album title is floating around, but it will take shape in the near future. We have about five songs done and are going to write more. By the end of the year we will be playing these songs live, or a few of them. So if you like what you hear, please, let us know. Other than that, we will recharge our batteries, get the riffs flowing and start yet another excursion to finish our third full-length record."

THE FUNERAL PYRE continues to support "The Nature of Betrayal", which saw a March 2007 re-release via Prosthetic Records through a distribution deal with Creator Destructor Records. The band has already been hard at work supporting the record, having played this year's New England Metal and Hardcore Festival and California Metalfest, as well as touring with LIGHT THIS CITY, AS EDEN BURNS, APIARY, CERBERUS and DRYLINE, among others.
