    An incredible piece of work that stands among the most imaginative and spectacular releases of 2013.
    And it was released the day of my birthday! I don’t think it’s a coincidence...

    Sounded like a 7 when I first listened to it. But the more I listen, the more I like all the songs

    Ceremony, the second record from Anna von Hausswolff, buffets us with a cold, yawning beauty.

    With her soaring, passionate voice the wail of a spectre, she's the incubus Kate Bush. [Aug 2013, p.88]

    It is attractive not only for its unusual, sophisticated musical presentation and smart, poetic lyricism, but for its canny instinct as well.
