NO CEREMONY/// - NO CEREMONY///

Review by Dave Hanratty

A little mystery is no bad thing, though it’s a shame that a band seemingly so desperately in search of heart do their utmost to shield their own.»

Buy now from:

Enigmatic and experimental pop Manchester trio No Ceremony/// release their debut LP on their own NOC/// label. It's a daring, boldly singular record that somehow pulls off the neat trick of pushing the parameters of pop music while also being brilliantly accessible, a gorgeous, haunting, and distinctive statement of intent which also happens to be filled with some of the most exquisite songs you're likely to hear in a while, with the sorts of melodies which will lodge firmly in your head for days. Think If New Order were an out and out pop group operating today, with Paul Epworth as producer.
