CEREMONY have announced a one-off show, celebrating their classic album, Rohnert Park.
Taking place at the legendary Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, CA, the date will see the band perform the LP, in full, “for the first and last time.” Presented by Sound And Fury, general sale tickets are available this Friday, November 17th from 10am PST. Tickets are available by clicking here.
The Palladium concert will mark CEREMONY’s first full performance in nearly a year and a half, following a mythical surprise set at 2023’s Sound And Fury Festival, and tours with TURNSTILE, GEL, and SPY. It is their only show currently planned in the near future.
Released in 2010 on Bridge Nine Records, Rohnert Park was a landmark in the world of underground music. Building on the breakneck ferocity of CEREMONY’s essential debut Violence Violence, the album immediately, and unalterably expanded the sonic, lyrical, and aesthetic possibilities of what could be considered “hardcore punk”, and left a deep, indelible mark on music that is more evident today than ever before. Brooklyn Vegan recently named Rohnert Park, one of the “Albums That Pushed Hardcore Towards Its Genre-Defying Moment”, alongside albums by contemporaries TITLE FIGHT, TURNSTILE, and POWER TRIP.
“The band has always done our best to not dwell too heavily on the past; we can only survive by looking forward. The permission from our audience to never stop evolving throughout the years has been such an invaluable gift, we wanted to say thank you by coming together to celebrate our first big leap Into The Wayside…Rohnert Park.”
After two albums for venerable indie stalwart Matador Records, CEREMONY released their most recent album, the critically-acclaimed In The Spirit World Now, in 2019 on Relapse Records, and followed with 2022’s Vanity Spawned By Fear 12” single.
