Nothing Feels Good
(1997)

by
The Promise Ring
The sophomore disc from these young ones finds the band moving further into the poppiness that they only hinted at on Thirty Degrees Everywhere. Some things remain the same -- beautifully odd lyrics, extremely catchy and powerful music, and the overall feeling of sentimentality and imagination that the Promise Ring's music always seems to exude. ...

Electric Pink

The Promise Ring
Right down to its neon cover, the Promise Ring's Electric Pink EP looks and sounds like pure sugary-sweet candy. Musically, it continues in the tradition of 1999's glorious indie pop epic Very Emergency and proves that there's no harm in too much of a good thing. From Davey VonBohlen's lisped intro to the opening title track, it is clear that the ...

The Promise Ring
After undergoing the first phase of their transformation from emo underlings to full-blown pop superstars, the Promise Ring released this neat little record and won over all the hearts that still weren't paying attention. Containing two truly superb tracks, Girls & Boys is the clear bridge between the group's 1997 opus Nothing Feels Good and 1999 ...

Nowcore! The Punk Rock Evolution
(1999)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
Some people call it Emo (as in "emotional hardcore"), some people just call it punk. In any case, it's a clear step away from the rage-and-angst-based hardcore punk of the past; undifferentiated roar and one-minute songs have been replaced by melodies, more adventurous song structures and lyrics that the groups actually want you to understand. ...

The Promise Ring
Unfortunately, you will never see the Promise Ring the way they were in the days of Thirty Degrees Everywhere, but you can at least appreciate the good parts of what they have become. Their emotionally tense and sentimental edge has pretty much entirely disappeared; everything is happy, bouncy, and catchy as hell, which isn't always a bad thing. ...

Where Is My Mind?: A Tribute to the Pixies
(1999)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
A curiously restrained tribute to such a typically ebullient gang, this adoring gumbo of many of the band's worst songs misses the point of the Pixies' oeuvre. Eve 6, Superdrag, Nada Surf and others emphasize their own bands' one-trick riffs as interpretations of the Pixies' far less self-conscious forays into pop, punk, and protogrunge. Local H's ...

The Promise Ring
These young Wisconsin boys certainly know how to write sharp, powerful, and beautiful songs. 30° Everywhere, the debut album from the Promise Ring, is still their best; it's basically straight-up pop/emo, very catchy, very intense, very powerful. Beautiful lyrics and melodies move from somber thoughts to moments that will make you smile in ...
