The band comments: “In less than four weeks, on March 6th, our new album will be released. »Summoning« delivers an epic, dark and relentlessly intense listening experience. Exploring themes of despair, death, hopelessness and mythology, it leaves no room for filler or downtime. Pre-orders starting from February 20th on Bandcamp.”

»In Eternal Fire« will be the closing track and grand final of Funeral Pile’s forthcoming album »Summoning« which will be released on March 6th, 2026. It’s a doom-loaded death metal track with a devastating and furious ending. Lyrically aligned with the original idea behind our band name, slow, massive riffs meet explosive intensity, giving »Summoning« a devastating and unforgettable conclusion.

Flames awaken, piercing the twilight… Funeral Pile combine elements of epic doom metal, melodic post black metal and old school death metal in a way not heard before. We shape our songs with furious vocals, cutting riffs, melodic lead guitars, grooving basslines and hard drum attacks in a unique way to create a harmonious and varied combination. We invite you to let your mind wander and then let your anger out again and let yourself fall into the groove of the music. We will heat you up with our blackened doom metal. Tonight there is a fire!
