We had a savage weekend last week :) We played with Jack Penate (who was a terribly nice guy) on Saturday in the village and in Andrew's Lane Theatre on Sunday as part of the Hard Working Class Heroes Festival (Thanks Angela and Steve and everyone who came along). We played pretty much the same set both nights that was made up mostly of new songs..... We've been talking alot lately about what we're going to do next and we really would like to make an album so i think we will endeavor to make this possible :) Here's two reviews from HWCH
"Finally, Dublin three-piece Funeral Suits are a fascinating way to finish our weekend. Having taken seemingly forever to set up, they strike coy poses and much dangling of their fringes, suggesting much close-inspection of the stage and their shoes. Their set begins very slowly too but, as it progresses, it’s clear there’s a lot of magic going on in their songs. Draped in sexy synths, distorted guitar and brilliantly robust drumming, there’s a palpable realisation that something beautiful is happening – we’re not the only ones who seem to be saying “wow”. The real beauty of these songs is that, in terms of influence, they don’t have a recognisable starting point, making their melodic journey all the more joyful to join in. This is a band whose sound and assurance suggest they’re already earmarked for a great deal of future success."
Hotpress Magazine (words Celina Murphy) "It's hard to pinpoint what makes Funeral Suits such a remarkable force, but i'm going to put it down to the adorable meowing, giddy synths and some very heroic meandering alt-rock - at this rate they are serious contenders for homegrown performers of the year"
I'm not really into posting reviews on our myspace to be honest but hopefully attention like this will make an album possible sooner :)
