Death At Ones Elbow

Funeral ClubFuneral Club
From: Bakersfield, California, United States


Those of you who have been following the Devil's blog since it started all those years ago, you few, you happy few, you band of brothers (and sisters) may remember me raving over The Grizzly Owls amazing 'What's A Girl To Do' (Life's A Hoot With...) which still sounds brilliant despite the passage of time. Well The Grizzly Owls have flown the nest and morphed into the perfectly monickered Funeral Club. And you know what they've managed to improve on perfection.

Jenny & Joseph Andreotti have recruited a few compadres and beefed up the sound for Funeral Club. The first track 'The Arrival Of The First Woman' is possibly the best thing you'll hear all year and is another contender for The Devil's Best of 2010 and the snow hasn't yet melted!


'The Arrival Of The First Woman' sounds like the Cowboy Junkies being mugged in a dark alley by Nick Cave. It's more menacing than a hoodie with a handgun and is a perfect way to announce Funeral Club's arrival on the scene.

Dig out your black suit and tie it's time for the Funeral Club
