THE FUNERAL PYRE debuts new music from forthcoming album

Los Angeles' THE FUNERAL PYRE has posted a track from the band's forthcoming record, 'Wounds,' online at the band's MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/thefuneralpyre), entitled "Black Earth." Scheduled for a May 27 release through Prosthetic Records, 'Wounds' is the follow-up to 2006's 'The Nature of Betrayal,' which saw an early 2007 re-release through a distribution deal with Creator Destructor Records.

Recorded in February and March with producer John Haddad (Intronaut, Eyes of Fire, Abysmal Dawn), 'Wounds' was mixed by metal legend Erik Rutan (Hate Eternal, Cannibal Corpse, Through The Eyes of the Dead) and mastered by Alan Douches (Shadows Fall, Converge, Municipal Waste). Having most recently completed a West Coast tour with Book of Black Earth, THE FUNERAL PYRE is slated to be part of Los Angeles Murderfest alongside Converge, Baroness, The Red Chord, Genghis Tron April 18 and will be embarking on a CD release-based tour in May and June throughout the United States. Booking inquiries for TBA dates can be directed to the band's MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/thefuneralpyre).
