THE FUNERAL PYRE Offers Update On New Album

January 24, 2008

Vocalist John Strachan of Los Angeles' THE FUNERAL PYRE has issued the following update:

"We just wrapped up our West Coast tour with the almighty BOOK OF BLACK EARTH. Was it fun, you ask? All you need to do is look at this one picture. That proof enough? I believe so.

"Now that we have that out of the way, I, as well as everyone else in THE FUNERAL PYRE, would like to collectively thank all of the rad dudes in BOOK OF BLACK EARTH. We had an amazing time and cannot wait to hit the road with you guys again. Many hails.

"We record our new album, 'Wounds', in a few weeks with John Haddad (INTRONAUT, ABYSMAL DAWN, EYES OF FIRE) then we send it off to Erik Rutan (HATE ETERNAL, CANNIBAL CORPSE, THROUGH THE EYES OF THE DEAD) to mix this bad boy down.

"We are extremely excited to do this record with these two gentlemen and are also excited to have some of you kids hear this new record.

"We have been playing three new songs live at our shows, which we've had really great feedback on. So thank you to those whose attention was on us during the show and not the hot girls walking around in tight pants. We appreciate it."

THE FUNERAL PYRE is continuing to support its Prosthetic Records debut, "The Nature of Betrayal", which saw a February 2007 re-release through a distribution deal with Creator Destructor Records. The band will play a few shows, including a hometown show with new labelmates WITHERED, in March.
