Ceremony Releases New Album ‘The L-Shaped Man’

‘The L-Shaped Man’, Ceremony’s fifth and latest studio album is now available through Matador Records.

Deemed “formidable” by NME and “an intelligent record” by Loud and Quiet, Ceremony moves away from their hardcore roots into an exploration – and celebration – of the “nooks and crannies of sadness.” The band uses singer Ross Farrar’s recent break-up to create an intense and raw emotional sound that has to do with loss and love.

The band has also announced that they will be embarking upon an European tour in August and have now released their upcoming dates:

Aug 5th | Pokalen – Oslo, Norway

Aug 8th | Visions Festival – London, UK
