***A breakout success when it was released in 2012 in Sweden, Ceremony was nominated for two Swedish Grammys and a Nordic Prize, and secured ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF’s place as a strikingly original young artist on the rise; in their review of the debut US single “Mountains Crave,” Pitchfork wrote: “When von Hausswolff’s ringing, regal voice sails in, it’s clear that an original voice is announcing itself.” With a pipe organ as its main instrument, Ceremony blends von Hausswolf’s passion for diverse music from pop to avant-classical composition, noise, black 
metal, and film soundtracks, into a captivating and original suite of songs that ruminate on death but celebrate life and artistic expression. A stunning and emotional album of dark orchestral pop from a singular new artist. (STREET DATE - 7/09/2013)
