Golden Age of Knowhere

Los Angeles-based Funeral Party formed late one night while drinking in a park in Whittier, California, a sleepy suburb that sits on the outskirts of Los Angeles County. Chad Elliott, James Torres, and Kimo Kauhola formed Funeral Party as a means of escaping a nowhere town set amidst a cultural wasteland. The moroseness evoked by their moniker is undermined by Funeral Party's debut album, 'Golden Age of Knowhere', an up-tempo powerhouse that weaves a barrage of aggressively catchy melodies, propulsive basslines, and relentless rhythms with Elliott's raw, throaty vocals and the band's shouty group sing-alongs. The album opens with a triad of punchy tracks: "New York City Moves To The Sound of L.A.," "Carwars," and first single "Finale."

Produced by Lars Stalfors (Matt & Kim, The Mars Volta) and mixed by Dave Sardy (Band of Horses, LCD Soundsystem, Oasis) Funeral Party's debut full-length, 'Golden Age of Knowhere', features lead single "Finale" and more.
