I got this double LP for Christmas, I’m on a catch up tip at
the moment. I’d never heard of this
Toronto group until it was announced that Ancient VVisdom were going on tour
with them and Ghost so I decided to check them out as I literally know of no
other band that are similar to AVV and I’m willing to check out any band with a
female vocalist in case it blows me away as much as Rose Kemp did when I first
heard her. Whilst Blood Ceremony didn’t
hit me for six like Rose did, they certainly got my attention when I hear
lyrics about the great god Pan and the flute solos dotted about the record,
colour me interested.
Anyways, I got this for Christmas off the missus, not
knowing if it’d come on colour or what, turns out it was the green vinyl
version and it’s a double gatefold too, bonus.
The Rise Above pressing info lists all of the variant colours as out of
300, the band didn’t have any copies with them when I caught them live in
Toronto last month so good job I managed to get this one from the record store.
The band themselves look like they’re straight out of the 60’s,
one of them needs to admit the fact he’s not as thick on top anymore and shave
it while the singer does a good job of channelling Kate Bush’s moves on stage.
