Ceremony is the fifth studio album by British rock band The Cult, first released on 23 September 1991.

Longtime bassist Jamie Stewart had departed prior to recording, and the working relationship between vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy was at an all-time low.

The pair reportedly rarely agreed to appear at the studio together, opting to record their parts separately at different times.

Some countries, including South Korea and Thailand, did not see the record's release until 1992 and it was unreleased in Turkey until the Cult played several shows in Istanbul in June 1993.

"White" includes an excerpt from Lawrence Lipton's 1959 book 'The Holy Barbarians', which was later the name of Astbury's band, formed in 1996.
