------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------Band Bio
He will rise to the top, abandon all his needs, get blisters on his knees, he will eat you alive, cries up-and-coming Funeral - AKA "Adam Marez", but the chorus to this electro-punk song isnt a prediction, its a verdict that you shake your ass. In less then a year, this rowdy, voltage-rock artist has managed to cause major dance-floor mayhem in Denver, CO. With pre-released leaks from the forthcoming EP- Birth, Denver's most influential DJs are discovering his music, and wielding his beats.
Upon being signed, in the fall of 2004, to newly formed Velvet Ant Records, and forming from the ashes of Texas based band Belu a complex, melancholy, somber wall of melodies resembling that of many of their influences South, Doves, Radiohead, frontman Adam Marez decided to transcend his personnel and writing styles and evolve to a much simpler form, one that would cut the achilles as well as the hearts of listeners. He wanted a party for the dying. He knew that his record would require recruiting the talents of producer and sound architect Peter Black, whose background for breaking new sounds was indisputable. Peter became the catalyst for the death of one band and the birth of a new and very exciting sound. states Adam Marez.
After spending months stripping away old layers of methods, styles, and rules, the band walked away from the studio with 15 wonderful tracks. They are uncompromising and filthy. They are naked pop-grime shards of gated guitars and distorted-synth basses. Inject shattered drumbeats and slice it with electronic soundscapes and the picture suddenly becomes very clear; Funeral is here to remind us that great things are always reborn.
