Ceremony detail seventh album, Tell Me Your Dream
California-based punk band Ceremony have announced their new album, Tell Me Your Dream, and shared new single, "Death Destruction Mayhem".
Tell Me Your Dream follows Ceremony's 2019 album In the Spirit World Now, and is noted as a culmination of the band being together for two decades. "Death Destruction Mayhem" follows previous single "Other Hells" as an anthemic post-punk track.
For Tell Me Your Dream, the band reunited with producer John Reis, who worked on Ceremony's 2015 album, The L-Shaped Man. “John sort of joined the band on this one,” says guitarist-keyboardist Anthony Anzaldo. “We could not respect him more as a guitarist, as a singer, as a songwriter. He understands what it’s like to be in every position. So we really gave him the keys.”
The new collection of songs also reflects a sense of trust developed within the band over the years, as Anzaldo explains, “We’re bound together like family,” says Anzaldo. “Our relationships are beyond the band. CEREMONY is going to live no matter what. We’ve shifted into this dynamic where the choice isn’t ours anymore.”
