about
The Funeral were a hardcore band from Syracuse, NY that existed between 2001 and 2004. In that time they played throughout the Northeast and released two full lengths, as well as three different demos. The band released all their material themselves (with the exception of the “Ruled By None” full length, which was released via Endwell Records) and booked most of their own hometown shows, in the spirit of doing things for themselves. The band started originally as a side project for members of other local bands Darker Day Tomorrow and Spark Lights the Friction to play dark and heavy hardcore in the vein of groups like From Ashes Rise and Tragedy, but also with the monstrous heft of groups such as Hope Conspiracy or Carry On. When both Darker Day Tomorrow and Spark Lights the Friction decided to split up The Funeral became more of a priority for the group. Comprised of members Travis Hance, Andrew Williams, and Tony Tornabene- all from DDT, as well as Grant Johnson – from SLTF, and rounded out by local show promoter/zine scribe/record label person Ryan Canavan the band played frequently and recorded regularly. The band decided to split up in 2004 when guitarist Grant Johnson moved to California. The band reconvened for a single Halloween show in 2006 as well. https://hexrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-funeral-discography-2001-2004 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
