Our Take
Ah, The Old Ceremony, how delightfully melancholic yet strangely whimsical you are. "Fairytales and Other Forms of Suicide" is a musical journey that feels like stumbling down a rabbit hole into a twisted wonderland of clever songwriting and intricate instrumentation. Lead singer Django Haskins' haunting vocals glide effortlessly over a range of sounds, from the moody piano balladry of "Poison Pen" to the toe-tapping catchiness of "Ghost of Fashion." The band's eclectic mix of influences, from folk to jazz to cabaret, creates a sonic landscape that is as diverse as it is captivating. But don't be fooled by the album's fairy tale title - there's a dark undercurrent running through these songs, exploring themes of love, loss, and the darker side of human nature. Tracks like "Magic Hour" and "Fairy Tales" weave a tale of heartbreak and disillusionment, while still managing to be oddly uplifting. Overall, "Fairytales and Other Forms of Suicide" is a masterclass in storytelling through music. The Old Ceremony have crafted a unique and compelling album that is both thought-provoking and thoroughly enjoyable. So, put on your headphones, press play, and let yourself be swept away by this enchanting musical journey.
