Today, FUNERAL returns with Yestertear, the haunting second single from their forthcoming album, Gospel of Bones. FUNERAL weaves a somber yet resilient tale through their melancholic soundscapes. Yestertear is a cathartic vessel, sailing through the darkest waters of human grief and emerging on the shores of mournful beauty. Produced by the legendary Børge Finstad and adorned with the ethereal harmonies of Ingvild “Sareeta” Johannesen, Gospel of Bones is an opus of mourning carved in nightmarish tones and relentless dirges. Each track meticulously showcasing the band’s mastery in articulating the grim yet inspiring journey through pain and loss. On Yestertear, the listener drowns in intricate melodies and the profound anguish woven with care by the hands of the Anders Eek (Drums, Guitars, Vocals) Erlend E. Nybo (Guitars), Rune Gandrud (Bass), Sareeta (Violin, Backing Vocals), Stian Kråbøl (Guitars) & Eirik P. Krokfjord (Vocals). Eek’s dismal symphonies echo through every note, leading us through the desolate beauty of remembered sorrow and past hauntings. Here, we are not merely passive listeners but fellow mourners, each phrase a whisper in the grand requiem of existence. ➤ Listen to Yestertear now on the Season of Mist YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/taZsXT5YNiw
