Funeral For A Friend are offering fans a chance to hear a sneak-peak of forthcoming third album Tales Don’t Tell Themselves for free! Due out in May on Atlantic Records, the record is already hugely anticipated.

The band explain….

“As a little taster for the album, here is your chance to hear an exclusive track from the record first. And it’s free! It’s called Out Of Reach. This isn’t a single - we just wanted you to hear what we’ve been up to these last few months! Let us know what you think at www.myspace.com/funeralforafriend

“What’s more the band are asking fans to make their own video for the track. The best of these will be featured on the bands official YouTube Channel at www.youtube.com/user/FuneralTube with the band picking an ultimate winner who will receive a range of prizes including meeting the band and the video being included on a future Funeral release!

“We’d like you to get creative on us and put together your own video for the track. You can be as experienced or inexperienced in filmmaking as you like, it doesn’t matter. Just get cooking on a good idea and get filming. It’s completely open and up to you what you come back with. Once you’ve made your video, upload it to You Tube and send the video link to ffaf@atlanticrecords.co.uk with the subject heading ‘Out Of Reach video comp’.

The record label lawyers want us say that you cannot, under any circumstances use copyrighted / rights managed material in your videos (so nothing from films, TV shows, other peoples work unless it is from copyright free / rights free / royalty free source). Your work must be 100% original. Otherwise they get in trouble and probably so do you.

Entries will be added as a favourite to the official FFAF YouTube page and the winning entry will receive a brand spanking new video camera, get to meet up with us at some point and also get their winning video used in a future FFAF digital release, all courtesy of the nice people at Atlantic Records. Except the meet up part which is courtesy of us.”

The competition will run up until the release of the album in May.
