THE HAUNTED To Support FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND In The U.K.

Swedish thrashers THE HAUNTED have been confirmed as the main support act for FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND on their U.K. headlining tour in May.

FUNERAL frontman Matt Davies commented: "THE HAUNTED are truly ferocious and a definite favorite of ours."

THE HAUNTED have also been added to the lineup of bands performing at the Fury Fest in Nantes, France June 25-27.

As previously reported, THE HAUNTED have spent the past couple of weeks at Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden recording their fourth full-length album, tentatively due late summer through an as-yet-undetermined label. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Almost Alive", "99", "Who Will Decide?" (featuring a guest appearance by SICK OF IT ALL singer Lou Koller) and "Burnt To A Shell". Photos taken during the sessions can be viewed at this location.
