Funeral Suits

First things first, Funeral Suits have an impressive single from their debut album. ‘Hands Down’ has smooth and well-placed drum beats teamed with a simple repeated guitar progression that works into a full yet deceptively simple sound. When it hits your ears, it is nothing but satisfying.

“Hands down by your side” could have so many meanings and from the repetition you feel as though they are all relevant and all expressed through the slightly haunted vocals.

The tortured undertone works well, and the dramatic yet controlled build up to the final clash of drums is inspirational.
