Promise Divine
This is good shit! It doesn’t sound Swedish at all; when I hear these I dudes I think USA and radio friendly punk. A little bit like Sum 41, but absolutely not in a bad way at all. It feels tight and has a really nicely shaped sound, so no shitty rock n’ roll sound as often heard today. It’s like it’s made for an audience outside of Sweden. This makes me think that they may have a chance at a career in the US. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for Promise Divine!
Promise Divine was founded in 2005. And since the start they have toured in the US twice. They’ve exchanged some members and also released a full length album, which I didn’t listen to for long before I changed back to their forthcoming EP, which will be released on December 27th on Spotify, Amazon and iTunes. The EP release is digital only.
You can for the time being listen to one of the songs from the EP now on Spotify or at their site. But we’ll let you listen to another song already, “Me, In The Study, With The Revolver”, which is, in my opinion, the best song from the EP. So this is also the world premiere of that song here!
I’ve already put this release on my iPod. To me, Promise Divine is this years best upcoming Swedish band just right behind Royal Republic!
