THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT

Greetings from Suffocate City, The Funeral Portrait’s first full-length for Better Noise Music, expands the group’s mythology to new heights and dimensions with invigorating, authentic, and passionate anthems. Songs like “Alien,” “Voodoo Doll,” “You’re So Ugly When You Cry” (featuring The Used’s Bert McCracken), and the title track (featuring Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills) fuse the vibrant accessibility of Active Rock with the earnest honesty once screamed at the Warped Tour of the 2000s.

Steadily growing since the band’s formation in 2014, The Coffin Crew is a worldwide assemblage of devotees united in the shared catharsis of The Funeral Portrait’s music. It’s a tight-knit fandom built in the spirit of AFI’s Despair Faction, the MCRmy, the BVB Army, and Ice Nine Kills’ Psychos. It’s a diverse and welcoming community bound by perseverance through adversity and heartbreak.

“Our band is about standing up for weirdos and misfits. Because we are weirdos, too.”

Heralded as “the inspiring antidote to stagnant metalcore” by Alternative Press early into their career, the band eventually made their way onto SiriusXM Octane and episodes of All Elite Wrestling.

The Funeral Portrait is comprised of frontman and founder Lee Jennings, guitarists Cody Weissinger and Caleb Freihaut, bassist Robert Weston, and drummer Homer Umbanhower. Some grew up loving Avenged Sevenfold and Papa Roach; others adored My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy.
