The Switchboard Sessions: The Promise Ring

The reason behind the Promise Ring's break-up seems both simple and excusable: Each of the band's members were developing lives and priorities outside the Promise Ring and, in response wanted to take the band in different directions. Von Bohlen chuckles a little at his son's remark, perhaps recognizing the disparity between his reminiscence and present reality, before concluding his thought—that the end of the Promise Ring wasn't really sad, that it ended at the right time ” Wow, that seems sad, daddy,” a small voice comments, the singer's son, and suddenly the conversation warps a universe away from the smokey, bustling backstage at some club in California to the von Bohlen's dinner table in Milwaukee almost ten......

LOOK: The Promise Ring + Joan Of Arc at Metro 02.25.12 ...

Emo was once just a three letter word, not the four letter one it became in later years and The Promise Ring along with a handful of other bands were one of its pioneers.   Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way I think we can move along to how awesome The Promise Ring are at being emo 10 years after they called it quits.
