Funeral Home | My Kingdom Is Hell |Inverse Records


Release Date January 16th, 2026
Format Digital/CD
Genre Death Metal
Country Finland

Hailing from the frozen streets of Kuopio, Funeral Home has been lurking in the underground since 2009. These Finns aren't interested in the fancy, over-produced garbage that clogs up the airwaves. They’ve spent over a decade refining a sound that bridges the gap between old-school filth and that classic death 'n roll swagger. After years of building their name, they’ve finally vomited up their debut full-length, "Your Funeral", via Inverse Records to show the world what Finnish grime sounds like.

The heart of this beast is the single "My Kingdom Is Hell", and if you can't tell by the title, it’s a middle finger to the weak. The track is a tribute to Lemmy Kilmister, and it carries that Motörhead spirit through a meat grinder of death metal riffs. It’s fast, it’s ugly, and it stays true to that "49% motherfucker, 51% son of a bitch" attitude. They aren't trying to be poets here they just want to kick your teeth in with a heavy groove.


Musically, the album stays simple and effective. Funeral Home understands that death metal works best when it isn't overthinking things. The songs on "Your Funeral" rely on straightforward structures and melodies that sound like they were dragged out of a damp crypt. Ossi Maalampi’s vocals provide a rough, guttural edge that fits perfectly over the dual-guitar attack of Henri Ojala and Henri Thitz. It’s a relentless wall of noise that favors a raw, unrefined sound over any modern production tricks.

"Your Funeral" is a solid slab of aggression for anyone who misses when metal was just about loud guitars and a bad attitude. The rhythm section of Juha Korhonen and Jouko Poussu keeps the tempo steady enough to bang your head until your neck snaps. It’s a dirty, honest debut that respects the legends while carving out its own path in the Finnish scene. If you want something that sounds like a graveyard party, this is it.

Score: 7.5
