Austin rock band FUNERALIZER will release its self-titled debut album on
October 28 via Crayo KC. The group, a trio featuring drummer Trivett Wingo
(ex-The Sword), guitarist David DiDonato (Ultimate Dragons) and bassist Clarke
Wilson (Bangaar, Those Peabodys), play music that is at once, eclectic,
electric and LOUD. Today, Treble premieres the new song, "Rotting on the
Vine", calling it "one minute and one second of fuzzy, burly
stoner-math metal." Hear FUNERALIZER's "Rotting on the Vine" now
at THIS location.
“"Rotting on the Vine" is sort of our nod to Devo,” comments
Wingo in a statement. “Obviously we borrowed a little bit of inspiration from
"My Sharona".”
In
related news, New Noise has unveiled the new FUNERALIZER song "RIC",
which, according to Wingo, "captures the essence of the math rock thing
that we were all doing in Richmond,
Virginia back in the 90's, like
Breadwinner and Sliang Laos". Hear "RIC" now at THIS location.
Recorded by Bryan Richie (The Sword) at The Berry, Funeralizer delivers
twelve terse tracks that swell with Sturm und Drang, discordance and
dissonance. The album's arresting cover art was created by Joby Ford, guitarist
for The Bronx / Mariachi El Bronx.
"The idea behind Funeralizer is that everything is super
concentrated. No fluff," Wingo
continues. "It seems like the best parts of most songs can be summed up in
about a minute and a half. The goal is to keep things dense. Boredom is the
enemy." He adds, "I'm excited
to get this record out 'cuz I feel like, for the most part, it doesn't sound
like anything anyone else is doing."

FUNERALIZER live dates:
"Funeralizer breaks down loud rock to
its most basic elements of killer riffs, slamming drums and pounding bass. No
song on the Austin-based instrumental trio’s album goes for over two minutes.
It’s like it’s their mission to get in, rock out and then get the Hell out
before the dust even settles. It’s fat free noise rock at its best." - NEW
NOISE
