Funeral Oration - "Shadowland" EP


Funeral Oration, a legendary band from Holland, are one of those bands that I always dismissed, mainly because of all those Hopeless Records pop-ska-punk compilations, but I now realize the error of my ways. Here is their 7 song EP from 1984, "Shadowland". the first 4 songs are amazing fast melodic hardcore with great vocals and stick in your head choruses, and the last 3 songs are more Bauhaus than Black Flag, if you know what i mean. this is an amazing release, and is highly recommended. i have been wearing it out for weeks now. if "live in lies" isn't one of the best punk songs ever, then I give up.

oh yeah, the last 2 songs are in one mp3.....
