Next Gig...
Decoration can be heard in session on the Andrew Morrison Show on dandelion radio throughout this month as part of the Peel Legends season that the station is running to mark the fifth anniversary of the great mans passing...
The show is played every day on a rotating schedule so you should be able to catch it at a time that suits you.
For the session the band recorded a selection of brand new and old favourite songs, and a fantastic cover - but you'll have to listen to find out what they are.
There is also a new session scheduled for broadcast pretty soon on Gideon Coe's 6 Music Radio show, date to be confirmed. .
About us...
Rambling casually onto the airwaves in 2004 Decoration instantly oozed
unflappable northerness. They fell headlong onto the world with a
shambling tabloid ordinariness; kitchen sink dramas and dilemmas, romantic
clumsiness and affable tenderness were their heritage and they soon became
their calling card. They kick their fray into action with a heady blend of
tuneful potency, a melodious growl and a searing, scintillating wail,
pulling together the last twenty years or so of Peel endorsed independent
popular music Decoration instil in you a need for more. Guitars were made
for songs like these, distortion pedals just add to the effect.
Following their own John Peel endorsements and radio sessions galore the band released Don't Disappoint Me Now their debut album in October 2005, this was succeeded by a handful of singles, and a second album flippant. This year will see Don't Disappoint Me Now re-packaged with new artwork and new tracks pulled from a Dandelion Radio session and early demos. The limited run will be hand numbered and released in the United States through Entangled Records of Portland, Oregon
The new album, See You After The War is available through all the usual outlets. You can also order your copy through the Decoration website shop: http://www.decorationmusic.co.uk/shop.html
