Having featured on the Non Plus Ultra 1980-1989 Vol.2 released by Domestica earlier this year, the distinct self styled ‘Necro-Pop’ of Funeraria Vergara is covered in greater detail by the Barcelona label with this lovingly presented retrospective of their demos and unreleased works. Covering a two year period from the early eighties, the eight track Despues De Un Dia Antes LP presents the young Burriana based Funeraria Vergara collective as a devilishly fun group dealing high octane synth pop with occultist overtones. Their one true hit “El Difunto” managed to find its way onto a 1984 cassette compilation of Spanish Wave and Punk called N-340 and features here along with a bunch of unreleased demos and a card insert detailing Funeraria Vergara’s curious rise to coin the Necro Pop crown.
