Let me introduce everyone to the world of the promise ring. I guarentee you that you will not be dissapointed. This is what 'emo' was before it became the cool thing and many bands today see the promise ring as inspiration. It's funny though, the band had a strong fan base but their albums are really hard to find. The defined what emo/indie or whatever kids call it these days. They shaped it. They made it.
Along with other bands at the time like Jimmy eat world The Promise ring promised so much, and provided it.

Go to your local store and grab an album (if you can find it). Amazon have plenty.
The Promise Ring, don't forget the name
Go to launch to check out their stuff

Did you say 'emo' ... blah.
trust me amara, you'll love it. It's what 'emo' was supposed to be like. 'emo' is a broad term used today for a large genre of music. People say Killers is emo and some say blink182 is emo and they're nothing alike. Trust me amara you'll love it.
A mate describes promise ring as oasis without the arrogance and annoyance of liam galligars voice. just listen to the tracks posted above

Oxymoron of sorts.

Lian Gallagher's distinctive voice is big part of what defines Oasis.

Anyway, I'll try & check The Promise out.
