Frankly, when I first heard Funeral, I was only 19 & not yet mature enough to really get the album. Now, I've gone back and really fallen in love with several songs that I glossed over.
"Rebellion (Lies)" particularly sticks out. There is something beautifully haunting about the repetition of "Lies, Lies, Lies" throughout that expresses the confusion an album clearly dedicated to the loss of loved ones.
If you like that track, I highly recommend the whole album, these tracks were certainly meant to be heard as a singular work. For those of you that only download individual tracks, I recommend "Wake Up," "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" and "Neighborhood #2 (Laika)."
Truly one of the greats of our generation. The album and the band.
