Ceremony album set for release
Friday, January 06, 2012 12:07 PM PT
Official press release:
Rohnert Park, California's
Ceremony will be releasing their fourth album, entitled Zoo, on March 6, 2012. Working with producer John Goodmanson, the band have refined their jagged sound while continuing to pursue themes of exurban alienation and confinement. Their previous three albums on the Malfunction and Bridge Nine labels are widely seen as the most compelling, unusual and progressive hardcore of the last five years, and we at
Matador Records are incredibly excited to be working with them.
Back in December, we announced the 7" of "Hysteria," the lead track on the album, backed with the non-LP Urinals cover "I'm A Bug." Now you can listen to an MP3 of "Hysteria"
here.

"...are widely seen as the most compelling, unusual and progressive hardcore of the last five years."

This is honestly extremely repetitive and boring. I think they're trying for some detached, snarly, Blur-inspired punk/rock and roll but they're forgetting to write compelling music. "Hysteria" gets a 3/10.

I hear zero powerviolence in this track. It reeks of Radiohead/Oasis... ????
