CEREMONY – Turn Away The Bad Thing

After four years, Californian punks CEREMONY are back with a new album, In The Spirit World Now. The album explores some pretty amorphous lyrical territory about arrested development, botched relationships, and the never-ending hamster wheel of self-destruction so many creative people succumb to – it’s out on the 23rd August,  but for now content yourself with a pretty fine lead single, Turn Away The Bad Thing. … Continue reading CEREMONY – Turn Away The Bad Thing
