Biography
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.
Over the winter of 2007/8 the band retreated into their favoured recording studio, Gravity Shack in London and started work on their second full length album. See You After the War was completed in the spring and is due for release in October.
