“'It does seem kind of like a downer as a title,' the Old Ceremony vocalist-guitarist Django Haskins says of naming the rock group’s new album Fairytales and Other Forms of Suicide. 'The overall upshot, lyrically, though, is a positive one.' The record, he explains, shares many themes with the song of the same name. Specifically, the track is meant to encourage listeners to let go of not only the childhood fairytales they grew up with but 'fairytales about love, life, death and everything else,' according to the singer...As heady as all of this is, it makes for an ornate song, built from expertly textured baritone guitars, violin and percussion, teetering between tension and release."
