“Vultures At Dawn” is the third album from California’s THE FUNERAL PYRE and their most ambitious, esoteric work to date. Drawing inspiration Gorgoroth, Dawn, Dissection and Beherit, whilst never turning their backs on their Californian underground punk/metal roots, the band effortlessly blend their Swedish and Norwegian influences into 44 minutes of music that hits the nodes of doom and thrash, but still stays firmly grounded within black metal.
“Vultures At Dawn” was recorded by bassist Adam Campbell, mixed by Ryan Butler (Landmine Marathon, Misery Index, Phobia) at Arcane Digital and mastered by Dave Shirk (Nile, Today Is The Day) of Sonorous Mastering. Evocative artwork for the album concept was handled by Justin Bartlett, well known for his work with bands such as Trap Them, Intronaut and SunnO))) amongst others.
