The Promise Ring

This week's Download- The Promise Ring- Tell Everyone We're..

The Promise Ring is an original band. They pioneered their Indie / Emo / Alternative genre. They really were the first to do this kind of stuff. I haven't listened to this song much, but I've heard one of their first CD's "30 Degrees Everywhere" many many times. These guys were early 90's. Surprized? You should be, they were creating the stuf I listen to know more then 10 years ago.

They came from Canada. So they rule. Canada invented this.

They broke up a couple times. Got back together. They're not together anymore though. All the good bands break up. Of course.

They claim they sound like "jesus meets mineral meets fugazi meets sunny day". I can kind of agree.. Although not as indie as Sunny Day. They sound alot like Mineral, but Im not sure who copied who. Both bands are very good and I hope to write of them in a upcoming entry. I suppose you'll like these guys if you like The Get Up Kids. You better've heard of them.


And here is the download I promised for last week.

Free HEISLEGEND
Heislegend- I Am Hollywood

This link will probably be dead in a day, so this AND THREE (3) MORE can be found here..
HEISLEGEND @ PUREVOLUME.
The new Myspace-esq Purevolume is very unstable after being revamped last week.

Purevolume:

"When He Is Legend signed to Solid State Records in the spring, the band had already stirred a blaring buzz all their own. But they were just getting started. 2004 has put He Is Legend on the map and on the move. In June, the five North Carolina natives released their debut EP, 90125 with Tribunal Records, a label most noted for helping launch the careers of bands like Atreyu and From Autumn to Ashes. The release received rave reviews, stirring the anticipation even further for He Is Legends debut full-length album, I Am Hollywood. Supplying listeners with clever lyrics and cathartic vocals, Hollywood will no doubt shock audiences with its instant display of musical maturity, setting the stage for He Is Legend to surely live up to their name".

Untill nekst week.

No stream for you. They suck anyways. Downloads for life dog.
