Never! You want to listen to the negative stuff, all wrapped up in a happy tune.” Funeral Shakes guitarist Simon Barker is the first one to admit that his new band’s self-titled debut album is not for those who bask in the glory of love. You know, like Peter Cetera’s saccharin anthem from The Karate Kid Part II. Nope. They’re songs for those who’ve taken a proper beating by heartache, picked themselves up, dusted themselves off and limped home. But first, a little backstory. The Smoking Hearts were a five-piece rock n’ roll band who promised to bring excitement wherever they went. But after two outstanding albums – 2010’s Pride Of Nowhere and its 2013 follow-up Victory! – Barker and bassist Calvin Roffey realised their new ideas had no place in the band. There was no point in trying to shoehorn them into The Smoking Hearts’ rough-and-tumble, boisterous rock n’ roll. These new ideas had melodies, a different slant. It was time, then, to try a different tack. “One day we were like, ‘Wouldn’t it be great if we had no limits to what we could do?’,” says Roffey. “We looked at each other and went maybe there’s not – that’s when Funeral Shakes was born.” The thing was, Funeral Shakes had no singer. Roffey – who provided back ups in The Smoking Hearts – took up the mantle of vocalist (mainly because Barker didn’t want to) and found himself to be very capable of singing while providing the band’s low-end rumble. The line-up was quickly enlisted Gallows’ Lee Barratt after a chance meeting at a Metz show. Soon after, Em Foster, who herself had released a debut album under the moniker Nervus, joined as guitarist.
