True to form, \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY's\u003c\/strong\u003e seventh album, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTell Me Your Dream \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003epushes the group’s punk-forged intensity all the way to the fore, capturing the quintet at its most expressive, expansive, and timely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“We’re living in an era of mass uncertainty,” says \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e vocalist Ross Farrar. “In punk, I don’t see how you can’t respond. It’s taken over our lives in so many different ways — economically, politically, spiritually. We want people to wake up and get into what’s happening.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFerociously alert, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTell Me Your Dream\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e reunites \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e — Farrar, guitarist-keyboardist Anthony Anzaldo, guitarist Andy Nelson, bassist Justin Davis and drummer Jake Casarotti — with producer John Reis for ten songs of searing breadth. That means everything from bristling hardcore to moody post-punk — all while taking fundamental inspiration from Discharge, Crass, and other anarcho-punk troupes that first helped certain members of \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e find their own political voices back when they were teenagers. The result is a culmination of the band’s 21 years together, if not some kind of riddle: \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e knows how to make a return-to-form sound like evolution — and vice versa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEqually loud and clear is the fact that \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e isn’t hesitating to raise its voice at a moment when the underground has grown strangely quiet. “Why aren’t punk bands actually saying the word ‘Palestine’ on their records?” asks \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e guitarist Andy Nelson. “We didn’t want to make anything that felt light, or empty, or apolitical. Our intent is to not waste anyone’s time, and to encourage people to think about what they settle for.” On \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTell Me Your Dream\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, you’ll hear Palestine cited over the ferocious bounce of “Madness,” a post-punky indictment of war’s obscenity — and the obscene amounts of cash required to wage it. But if you listen closely, you may also hear Farrar working to reconcile issues of broadscale sociopolitical violence with his most intimate personal struggles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin 30 minutes, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTell Me Your Dream \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003erevisits all previous eras of the greater \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e arc, with each track gaining intensity as it plays off the prior. The anarcho scorch marks of “Other Hells” give way to the deep-pocketed groove of the aforementioned “Madness,” followed by the jet-black jangle of “Dark Summer,” a post-punk rumination during which Farrar reminds us, “You only hit bottom when you stop digging.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep connections in a shallow world. A clear sense of purpose in uncertain times. These are the reasons \u003cstrong\u003eCEREMONY\u003c\/strong\u003e continues to grow, to expand, to adapt, to endure. This band can’t stop. And it won’t. To meet the moment, you have to be there for it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ceremony","offers":[{"title":"Custom \"Joker\" Marble *LTD to 348*","offer_id":51805711696193,"sku":"RR57161","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Neon Green","offer_id":51805711728961,"sku":"RR764611","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black and White Merge Inside Clear *LTD to 233*","offer_id":51805711663425,"sku":"RR57171","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/2302\/0865\/files\/e24c3b3c836a5d7c2f9ce580155f0ec8.jpg?v=1780600402","url":"https:\/\/www.relapse.com\/products\/ceremony-tell-me-your-dream-12","provider":"Relapse Records Official Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
