Funeral For A Friend - Damned If You Do, Dead If You Don't

[SickTwistedSmile]

Better than alot of their other stuff.. But i am not a fan, I just think the picture is pretty cool :3

[13StoryFall]

funeral, lostprophets, linkin park,

all bands that i love, all bands that peaked too early on and now get constantly compared to 10 years ago.

all people want to listen to is posthardcore =/

[rondeezy011]

they're luck I heard Hours before this album and didn't catch wind of them before Hours. . . if this is what ffaf used to be I can't wait til the next album. . . someone better wake them up and tell them the screamy grunge post punk hardcore scene is dying. They hit it with Hours right on the head and went a complete 180 back to, well I think you know how I feel by now about this album

[EpsilonX]

god i hate the ep cover..song is awesome though

[elektr0fant]

hammergeil, so sing it loud!

[gibs9105343]

how cme 2 of the albums are about nuke attacts ??? lke the album art though

[TomHutchins]

First time ive heard this band.

I still have no idea if the singer is male or female.

Fucking disgusting.

[PepeTehPenguin]

@TomHutchins

You must hang with some pretty manly girls bro

[TomHutchins]

@PepeTehPenguin

Implying this singer is masculin? Either that or you must be "hanging" with some pretty feminine "bros".

[PepeTehPenguin]

@TomHutchins

Not >implying that. Just saying girls voices are way higher

[ROFLgamer4526]

@TomHutchins you be trollin.

prick

[MrJaffajake]

@TomHutchins your fucking disgusting!

[TomHutchins]

@MrJaffajake You're* you ignorant fucking goon.

[TheThedestructinator]

@TomHutchins so much trolling

[westolefire]

amazing band. if you like Funeral For A Friend, check out We Stole Fire :-)

[LoLifant]

Ok after listening through all the songs several times I've changed my opinion. This album is better than it seems to be first.

[AcdcForLife666]

Is the song name kind of a pun of All Time Lows - Damned If I do, Damned If I dont?

[Sebastianin2010]

@AcdcForLife666 It isn't directly from ATL but there is a phrase saying damned if you do, damned if you don't. Basically, you can't win.

[LoLifant]

Up to now I can't understand all the hype about this album and even less, how people can say that it's their best album. I didn't listen through the songs completely yet, but as it seems now most of the songs lack epic moments that enlighten the fire inside of your heart...everything sounds so generic and kind of monotone...whereas I would say that this is one of the better songs along with "Broken Foundation".

[Mariooo57]

@LoLifant i get what you're saying. I love the heaviness they brought back but they're getting more predictable (talking about song structures)

[LoLifant]

@Mariooo57

It took me a bit of time but I've changed my opinion. They're as awesome as always. And that's the thing about good music...sometimes it takes you many listenings before you recognize how original it is.

[rolypoly92]

Who reckons this is the best track on the new album? And who else reckons the new stuff should go in this direction?? I do for one, this is immense!

[spudulika23]

Loving this song, absolutely fuckingh awesome!!

[Shinzoken]

I'll be honest, Memory and Humanity really disappointed me, however, Welcome Home Armageddon is PURE GENIUS

[rolypoly92]

@Shinzoken Agreed. After buying this and lostening to it to death in 2 days, I looked out Mem and Hum and put it on, I was just like wtf is this? I Can't see myself ever putting that cd on again now that I have CDADIC, Hours and This, with all their demos and rare tracks and bonus single tracks and b sides etc. That album is just....meh.

[MegaNiggerman]

@Shinzoken I didn't even listen to that whole album. But Hours and Casually Dressed were my favourite albums of all time for so long that I just had to take a break. I'm glad that break came in the form of Welcome Home Armageddon.

[WarnerMusicGroupLtd]

"Reaching out for something but never knowing what we need, as time slowly passes by grey hairs appear behind your eyes, DAMNED IF YOU DO, DEAD IF YOU DON'T!, it's the age of youthfulness" - pure genius of a chorus

[Thehamez]

Ahh the good old sounds of FFAF back again.

[EpsilonX]

god i hate the picture :\

[JCarlosFFAF]

The riff and drumming at 2:43 makes me headbang everytime I hear this song. Can't believe that there are guys that got the chance to do gang vocals on this track!

[TarTosco]

They have become a gay group.

[Fral20]

best stuff since hours (n maybe before) by far!!!! seeing them tonight at penrith, cant wait!

[s0mguy777]

love the buildup and the ending of the song at 2:14, eargasm... nuff said

[blc341]

this picture is creepy

[CharliDontSurfx3]

THE NEW ALBUM IS....EARGASM!!!!

[HubTM]

its on repeat. oh yes it is

[Nayfeee]

This is FFAF as they should sound. Liking their best stuff since 2006.

[Jammess95]

I loved their EP and debut album.

I then really liked Hours.

Tales Don't Tell Themselves was very disappointing.

Memories and Humanity was getting slightly better.

And now I think they're back where they started with another amazing album! :D

[BrandXdude1567]

dont care whats ever happened to this band, ive stuck with um 5 years strong since i first heard one of their songs, and being a lead guitarist i think they're riffs are fucking tasty, who agrees? ;D

[spursdude92]

@BrandXdude1567 I agree, as a fellow lead guitarist I feel these riffs are very underrated, especially those on Hours, like All The Rage and Alvarez!

If only the rest of my band agreed I think we'd have more songs like these guys!

There are very few songs I don't like by FFAF, unfortunately Front Row Seats To The End Of The World is one of them, but hopefully the rest of the new album is good

[BrandXdude1567]

@spursdude92 good point mate haha, i was making me my point in overall generality , although this songs quite cool i can see what ya mean. all the rage and alvarez i never get bored with. Oh and i to also support spurs ;). im still contemplating on whether to learn serpents , cause it hasnt quite grown on me yet lol. funny how i used to love them alot more when i was like 13. Now i can play properly though i can appreciate their music more. id like to see whats lined up on the new albumL :D

[spursdude92]

@BrandXdude1567 I'm in the middle of trying to learn Sixteen and the rest of Young and Defenceless EP. Its quite hard to hear everything in Serpents, but I'm getting there

[BrandXdude1567]

@spursdude92 haha sweet should put some covers up sometime mate

[spursdude92]

@BrandXdude1567 at the moment, I'm working on making a series of "how to play" videos for multiple FFAF, lostprophets, Papa Roach and Bullet songs.

I'm waiting for my amp to be returned to me by my drummer (I keep it at his house coz that's where we practice)

[BrandXdude1567]

@spursdude92 sweet dude, will be looking forward to them, possibly getting something out of them haha.

im contemplating whether to actually start making some cover vids soon or not , or whether i should leave it till i have good enough eq. But saying that experience is another key skill as well as your equipment set up, i should start gettin some done by this summer. When i get the hang of that, if you want just msg me and we could do some dual covers thatd be pretty sick, up too you tho :)

[DinoDyl]

Damned if i do ya (Damned If i don't)

[yotetube]

exellent job guys" 

[fromlaunatolust]

I LOVE THIS SONG!

[thrice81]

Thanks god, they're heavy again. hated tales don't tell themselves, not really liked memory and humanity either. get more technical or whatever u like. just stay heavy. please!

[ibluemonday]

one of the best songs of FFAF!!

I truly love it.

[GDrocks24]

back? funeral for a friend was always here...i never knew they disappeared =P...hehe..this band will never disappear

[EmoKidRH]

@GDrocks24 I think he's referring to the fact that they experimented with different sounds with their last two albums :P

[jeepen93]

Saw this live, they played before bullet for my valentine. Had never heard them before but DAAAMN are they good!?

[lambofgodshredder]

@jeepen93 where was the show at? would hav been epic with bullet aswell

[jeepen93]

@lambofgodshredder It was in Malmö, Sweden :)

[valensi1988]

They're back...finally...this is what ffaf should sound like...

[halo1221]

@valensi1988 they never left

my buddy, they are still here.

[InValidjr]

@halo1221 he meant back with stuff like there old stuff

[addart11]

Where is the love button??? all i see is like :(.one of the best songs from FFAF in 5 years!
