Irish purveyors of Rock Noir at it’s most imperious, Funeral Suits surge ahead with the release of the majestic ‘Hands Down‘ from their widely acclaimed, Stephen Street produced, debut album ‘Lily Of The Valley’.
They are influenced by a plethora of artists including Radiohead, The Knife, Mogwai and Animal Collective but their sound is very much their own. From haunting vocals and menacing guitars to the dreamy hypnotics, ‘Lily of the Valley’ is unique but realistic, thrilling yet honest. Funeral Suits are here, and they mean to stay.
