Yeah, live they excelled, but when I saw them they talked between songs a bit too much for my liking. It's nice to see a personality behind the songs and all, but having a five minute chat with the audience every two songs was a little annoying after a while.

They did an incredibly good cover of Far though.

Nothing wrong with a band connecting with the audience, Its better if they do that, It shows they care in a sense, lol.

I like a band that talks occasionally, but not to the extent they did, it was boring as hell.

IamYoMomA 04-26-2005 08:23 AM

DUDE! I LOVE FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats so awesome that you're going to go see them. I'm not going to see them... That'd be so kick ass if I did though. Tell us how It was when u get back.

tinker bell 04-26-2005 08:25 AM

Ok but why don't you just go?

IamYoMomA 04-26-2005 08:30 AM

I wish I could but I don't think my mom would let me go... she's weird like that. It sucks because my friends always invite me to concerts and **** and they are willing to pay for it but my mom always says no.

tinker bell 04-26-2005 08:31 AM

Ok how old are you and where do you live?

IamYoMomA 04-26-2005 08:32 AM

I'm 14 and I am in florida

tinker bell 04-26-2005 08:32 AM

Wait hold on if your not comfortable with that then PM me

tinker bell 04-26-2005 08:33 AM

Ow well then FFAF are touring in england I have no idea what their doing in the states sorry

IamYoMomA 04-26-2005 08:40 AM

Oh it's ok... I wouldn't be able to go any ways. This year I want to go to the warped tour though! I swear I don't give a **** what my parents say i will sneak out for that! You live in england you said? Thats awesome one of My best friends Ryan moved from here to there then back here and left again.... I hate how he's always moving... but that's pointless so now back to FFAF I want to look at their tour dates and see when they are coming down. I will have to see what If I can manage. Wow. This whole sneaking out has opened up a whole new world for me....why didn't my stupid ass think of it before????

tinker bell 04-26-2005 08:44 AM

Your young, you have much to learn.

i am not emo 04-26-2005 08:55 AM

9th July, Birmingham Academy... I'm there.

riseagainstrocks 04-26-2005 09:24 AM

14 and no concerts?? lame...

ArtistInTheAmbulance 04-26-2005 10:33 AM

Yeah, that sucks.. FFAF are great live anyway, they really are... And Bullet are just great anyway, so it should be an awesome gig!

AprilMay 04-26-2005 11:35 AM

My mean friend is going to see FFAF without me. Grr. The new song is really great. I can't wait for the album. I feel the need to dye my hair black and have a side parting.

EDGE 04-26-2005 12:55 PM

Theyre great live.

sleepy jack 04-26-2005 05:00 PM

I love funeral for a friend doesnt this belong in the emo forums though?

i am not emo 04-28-2005 10:48 AM

Please dont go EMO wanna-be on us! And yeah this kind does belong on the Emo forum but or well.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 04-29-2005 09:45 AM

Im sure you guys can cope with having an "emo" band in another forum, theyre not even full on emo anyways. Theyre just great, thats their genre..

A_Tribe_Called_Quest 05-01-2005 08:12 AM

im not even into the whole 'emo" thing but i think funeral for a friend are great, ive heard some of their album and it sounded really good.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 05-02-2005 04:34 AM

Yeah, Im really looking forward to the new album, I have the feeling they said this one was going to be darker and heavier than Casually Dressed, but my memory's not the most reliable of things...

Sneer 05-02-2005 06:21 AM

im going to go against the grain here and declare my dislike for FFAF. :ar_15s:

tinker bell 05-03-2005 02:01 AM

I have just heard their new song. Its not as I thought it would be. Not as Emo as the last album but its still wicked. The video is rrrreeeeeeeeeaaaaaaallllllllllllyyyyyyyyy good. I think its ment to show how hard life is ment to be for teens in school and all the violence there is around us at school.
I would love a bullet proof vest. I dont know why but everyone seems to have one at the moment.

wonderwhy 07-24-2005 10:16 AM

funeral for a friend - awesome new band
 
I just saw this band on the warped tour and they surprised me how good they were. I then found this site (http://www.budweiser.com/1) and watched their awesome music video and now I know I have to get their album, these guys are awesome

ArtistInTheAmbulance 07-24-2005 10:21 AM

Theyre not new. But they are good. Their older stuff had so much more passion though, methinks theyre losing it a li'l bit now. Shame, stuff like Seven Ways To Scream Your Name was great...

Imonlydancing 07-24-2005 10:29 AM

Yeup, AITA, i agree with you. Casually undressed....was better than hours, well IS better than hours. My friends are all going to the taste of chaos tour thing. damn them. grr. sold out. mm hmm. so yeah FFAF are great.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 07-24-2005 10:32 AM

I seen em twice :D And yeah, Hours is pretty... weak really. Theyve done much better. Apart from a couple of tracks, I hardly listen to that album.

Jonny Sniper 09-10-2005 01:47 PM

i really do like funeral for a friend, am im seeing them....at taste of chaos, in november. my favourite tunes are probably she drove me to daytime tv and you want romance. i really think casually dressed is the better of their albums, exlcluding 7 ways to scream your name, and hours is good, but i dont like it as much as casually dressed. a few songs off hours i think are good, them being all the rage and alvarez.

Iamtheman 09-15-2005 06:48 PM

i dont hear much about them here in america, saw a video played once b4 but never on the radio. i guess its good that way though cause then they dont turn into overplayed crap. by they way i think streetcar is there best song

Streetcar sucks compared... Well I think so anyway. They've done such better things, Hours is my least favourite release of theirs yet..

Funeral for a Friend
 
one of my fave bands, anyone like them?
which album is your fave?

im liking their older stuff more than i like hours though, art of american football and escape artists have got to be the best 2 songs by them

Kempson 10-28-2005 05:27 AM

Hours is poor IMO, their older stuff if marginally better. And as for them being the Download 2005 secret band.. Big letdown I think.
