New Jersey’s known for a lot of things. The oil refineries on the Turnpike. Great beach towns. Six Flags Great Adventure. Fuckin’ awesome tomatoes and blueberries. Gabagool and the country’s best pizza (fuck you, I’m 100% right about this, come fight me). And if you’re wise enough, you know the state is home to many killer metal bands like death metal outfit Funebrarum, who’s planning to release their first new album since 2009.
Announced earlier today, the band revealed that their forthcoming album Beckoning the Void of Eternal Silence will drop on May 29 via Pulverised Records. Not only is this their first new album in nearly 20 years, it’s also the first new music they’ve released in seven years. Yet today they’re back and the underground death metal scene is officially on notice.
“We, Funebrarum are stoked to be sharing our third offering, Beckoning the Void of Eternal Silence with the world. We are proud of the work overall and the final result. We look forward to desecrating stages worldwide with the new material.”
Having been around since 1999, Funebrarum have played with some of death metal’s best over the years. To get folks stoked about the new album, they released the first new track from that release, “Anhela Odor Mortuorum (The Adepts)”.
Described as a “suffocating descent into morbid atmosphere, heaving riffs, and sepulchral intensity” that heralds the band’s return, the single is basically Funebrarum’s way of kicking the door in and announcing their intentions.
“‘Anhela Odor Mortuorum (The Adepts)’ is a track we completed while on tour in Mexico several years ago. The song was written, mostly, by our bassist, Winslow. It is a great track that we enjoy playing live. It outlines the ancient journey of an occultist deep in connection to and in contemplation of, the shadowed mysteries.”
