I have been a fan of Funeral For A Friend for the past couple of years, which has allowed me to follow their musical development through two previous albums ('Casually Dressed In Deep Conversations' and 'Hours'). Now I have had the chance to listen to their newest creation - 'Tales Don't Tell Themselves'.
I have to say, this album wasn't what I was expecting from them. Only two of the songs remind me of their previous work - 'Into Oblivion' and 'Out Of Reach'. This might be a disappointment to some fans - but not to me. I keep listening to the songs over and over, and they all have catchy tunes you want to listen to again, and lyrics you want to learn just so you can sing along.
Their new album shows how far the band have come since the start of their career, and it couldn't be better. My particular favorite tracks are 'The Great Wide Open', 'Into Oblivion', 'Out Of Reach', 'The Diary' and 'On A Wire'.
One other track gave me goose bumps, purely from the instrumental parts of the song - 'The Sweetest Wave'. With it's violin peeks, piano solos and Matthew Davies amazing vocals, this song - or album isn't one to be missed.

As below. I absolutely love this band, and have heard most of the album. Picking up a hard copy of it Monday, can't wait! Ten
