Absolutely Brilliant Songwriters and musicians. Funeral For A Friend are hands down the most underrated band of the 2000s. Nobody wrote riffs like them. Kris Combs, Darren, Gareth are all amazing guitarists. I had no idea they play Marshall now, those are sounding fantastic, they played Bogner amps on Hours 2005 album, sounded incredible.
Big stu must be buzzing up there knowing he brought the boys back together, y plas was absolutely buzzing that first night. Hopefully we finally get the next show in 2022
Wales ?! I’m from Philadelphia, PA and these guys had a damn near huge scene here in the US. This music was apart of many millennials formative years - late ‘2006 onwards. Legends
At 14/15 I probably learned most of Hours (2005) on guitar. Roses for the Dead riff was a favourite its with first time I'd done 2 handed tapping. I think someone had uploaded a powertab to UG. I remember also recording a version of Recovery on some dodgy cracked version of Cubase using some headphones and a line 6 Ux1s . The UX1 still works! 😂 Ah good times. I'm 30 in march and I still play bits and pieces of those riffs everytime I pick up a guitar - even if that guitar now has 7 strings 😂 Thank you FFAF :)
@@JD_13 I probably downloaded most of them - 😂 might even still have them on my old laptop. I also had most of A7X city of evil. One of these days Ill be good enough to play all of syns solos lol.
Don't think I have ever heard of these guys, just clicked for some reason to hear the amps, but these guys seem like some good dudes, and great players. Def will ahve to check them out!
what a treat to hear funeral for a friend for the first time. especially now with all the, somewhat meh, new music out there. hope you still listen to them!
Love you guys so much, the guitar parts really inspired me, I'm now a full time guitar/music teacher. The way you guys wrote the guitar parts together and how they blended together so well, was so inspiring to me. Love you guys forever, always have been a big part of my life, still listening to your music today, its timeless. Keep rocking. Love from Scotland
Really nice to hear what they have to say about the scene when they were coming up and reuniting & people's reactions to it. I'd heard of them a few years ago but first heard their music when I heard Red Is The New Black in an episode of Torchwood last summer, so sick. Their melodies carry so much emotion 🤘👌but perfect blend with that aggression and grit as well with the tones and also the screamy vocals. I must check out full albums soon
They came back in 2019 for some benefit shows to raise money for the family of a friend of theirs who passed away from a terminal illness, and now they're playing shows again
Funeral for a friend, Darren and kris single handedly responsible for my unhealthy PRS obsession that sees me having more money in guitars than the car I drive 🤣🤣🤣
I think you dudes are the sh1t. I have always loved FFAF and spent some time in hospital. Your album hours helped me when I got out. You guys set the stage for future generations. Thank you.
They have the best guitar riffs in post-hardcore 🤘
funeral for friend, Saosin, Silverstein, they got the best riff in the genre

I agree they were so good, my fav band back in the day
They are incredible live. Remember seeing them back in 06
@@EvolutionIX219 Yeah i saw them at Taste of Chaos tour at that time they were the best band on the bill.
The GOAT post-hardcore band 🤘

Playing at Slam Dunk in 2024 🤘
Funeral for a Friend were criminally underated as song writers and as a band. Roses for the dead is beautiful.
Started listening in 03/04 I believe. Hours is still one of my favorite albums from that decade. From start to finish it's amazing.
It really is. Their strongest album imo
It was such a mature and complex album for a band from that genre. It was unexpected. Such a great album.
Favourite band ever. Can’t wait for the January show, praying it doesn’t get moved back again 🤞🏻this has got me really in the mood.
I love FFAF so much. Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation is a classic.
Rookie of the year riff sounds nice here

A 7 string guitar? Time to play "Aftertaste" :)
Powertabs ftw. There was one dude on an old tab website that uploaded powertabs of both casually and hours. What a legend that guy was.
Dude, that was the first two hand taps in learnt and got me back into FFAF, it also made me realise how good they was musically

@@Emm_R_Guitar i have a folder of about 300 tabs dating back to like 2005 haha. Some gems in there, and some i probably wont be trying to learn now 😅
Hondo Maclean need to make a comeback ☺️
You guys will always have a strong and dedicated following…i have been listening since 2005 or so

Incredible band and incredible humans.

This is one of the greatest guitar oriented bands I’ve ever heard. Been a fan for 20+ and when I get into FFAF binges, they’re borderline obsessive.
Darran Smith. As black as the night. What a legend.
FFAF 💚 The first album is so great I never stopped listening to it . Great composers , great songs . So happy you come back !
im straight from south wales and back in the day when i as 17(im 37 now) funeral was the shiiiit,respect from a old fan boys :)
Love both of these Legends of the Shred worlds.
Brilliant band.
love seeing these dudes get their MUCH DESERVED flowers!!!

have you listened to Welcome Home Armageddon? truly underrated album, and the guitars are crazy as ever!
Never left my heart.
They 100000% created a legacy!
1:37 It's TRUE EMOCORE!
I'm glad to see you again. I'm a big fan since 2005. Greetings from the Philippines.
Hope these guys can make it back to the states sometime. They would be a perfect fit for Furnace Fest.
The band that made me want to play guitar, sing and do both of those things in a band. FFAF is where it all started for me. Can’t thank them enough. 🖤
I love this band!!!

Professor Snape is a shredder now
Yall are life
Uma das melhores bandas que já ouvi
They riff its melodical my favourite band
these guys have some slamming riffs
Rookie of the Year sounds so powerful as guitars only
Woah they are back?!
They came back in 2019 for some benefit shows to raise money for the family of a friend of theirs who passed away from a terminal illness, and now they're playing shows again
Ha they don’t play the riffs like Kris does, he’s killer on guitar! Awesome that they got back together!
04:13 All The Rage
Yeaaahhh! This is rad af yo 💛💛
Funeral for a friend, Darren and kris single handedly responsible for my unhealthy PRS obsession that sees me having more money in guitars than the car I drive 🤣🤣🤣
😎👍💗🇺🇸🎸 LONG LIVE PRS!!!
Relic free since 1985!
We are all looking forward to the re-release of the England-made Marshall JCM 2000 dsl.
Song/riff at 1:06?
Rookie of the year. A classic, a master piece of art
👏👏🤘
Wicked band! Could have sworn they use Mesa Boogie though?
They used to use Bogner and Blackstar!
Wheres Kris?
I'm fire my old is comeback
COME BACK FUNERAL
this guys are god
I think you dudes are the sh1t. I have always loved FFAF and spent some time in hospital. Your album hours helped me when I got out. You guys set the stage for future generations. Thank you.
I missed the emo days
Kris Roberts wrote all of their most iconic and bad ass riffs. Why isn't he in here?
Does anyone know the guitar models too?
I could be wrong but Darren is playing his old custom 22 and then Gavin is playing a sc245 the old ones with the wrap bridge
I think it’s an SC250 but either way a PRS singlecut
song at the beginning?
Rookie Of The Year
😳😳😳😳
@@xxinxx1 thanks!
Song @ 3:18?
All the Rage
@@johnkelly3549 set up the hours album so well
Hondo Maclean gang
