Typical as in Ceremony directly pick up their known shimmering blend of noise and melody and seduce us with humming bass lines, fuzz-driven guitar riffs, crisp drum kicks, sweet’n’crunchy noises, heartbreakingly melancholic atmospheres and vocal colors that in certain moments sound like sung by a relative of Jim Reid (JAMC). clankforbreakfast.tumblr.com Take the fuzzed out sounds of the Jesus & Mary Chain, blend it with the pop sensibilities of 60′s girl groups, add a dash of Joy Division and wrap it all up in the guise of a love song and then you’re picking up on what Ceremony is putting down. www.strangewaysradio.com Ceremony is a melting pot of noise rock, psych, shoegaze and 60s pop! It’s raw, personal and explosive (all of the good things rock n’ roll should be)!

As Ceremony approaches a decade of music making, the new album ‘Distance‘ is about to be released via Moon Sounds Records.
