Spice - Spice (2020)

Ceremony frontman Ross Farrar and drummer Jake Casarotti are now both playing in a new band called Spice, alongside bassist Cody Sullivan (Sabertooth Zombie, No Sir), guitarist Ian Simpson (Creative Adult, No Sir), and violinist Victoria Skudlarek.


Traversing guitar-driven indie-pop and call-to-action impulse, Spice balances their urgency by interspersing violin melodies and layers, creating depth without oversaturating the heart of each song. Building complexity with laser focus, Spice shares the authoritative drive of Jawbreaker, J Church, The Horrors, and Fugazi, set in their own world of unrest. The treatment of each song is a statement that informs the whole - anecdotes that can bleed slowly or swirl quickly. In a sense, the Self-Titled album itself is an entire song, with each track becoming the verses, choruses, and interludes that narrate its intent. Ending with the final track they workshopped for the album titled “I Don’t Wanna Die in New York,” the album ends with a punch before winding back into meditation.


Buenas referencias, dadle caña.

Con esa line-up y esas referencias no podía fallar, super guapa esta vaina.

En una primera escucha me pareció algo plano, pero con cosas que me hacían volver a escucharlo.

La verdad es que cada vez pinta mejor.
