The band was eventually rounded out by frontman Davey von Bohlen, who at the time was a new enlistee into Midwest darlings Cap'n Jazz but gave The Promise Ring their crucial missing piece. In 1996, the group signed with Jade Tree and released their debut, 30 Degrees Everywhere: a powerful introduction that distilled the spirit and vigor of some of the members' punk and hardcore backgrounds and spit-shined it with von Bohlen's tastefully angsty melodicism. But 30 Degrees Everywhere is deceptively complex, masked by layers of driving guitars and buoyant rhythms. It's also deceptively dark, as the singer's heart-on-sleeve lyrics - tackling love, loss, regret and disappointment - and emotive delivery were hallmarks of The Promise Ring's genre-leading sound. This raw emotion, along with an overall lack of Polish, ultimately gives the album an endearing personality. You won't find perfect performances here; rather, you're getting real songs about real life played by real people in real time. Boiled down, 30 Degrees Everywhere is the foundation of a musical legacy, a lightning-in-a-bottle musical moment that demands listeners pay attention to it's urgency and passion - in the end, what more could you ask for?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41363391217861,"sku":"THE-PROMISE-RING-30-DEGREES-EVERYWHERE-LP-1319","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/6023\/3669\/products\/3762231.jpg?v=1651076626"},{"product_id":"the-promise-ring-wood-water-lp","title":"THE PROMISE RING 'WOOD\/ WATER' 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eLABEL: Epitaph \u003cbr\u003eVINYL RELEASE DATE: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e10\/5\/2018\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 2002\u003cbr\u003eVARIANT: Black Vinyl 2LP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHailing from Milwaukee, WI The Promise Ring weren't just emblematic of '90s Midwestern emo: they were one of the most celebrated bands in the history of the genre. Under the leadership of frontman Davey Von Bohlen of Cap'n Jazz, their sound incorporated elements of power pop that would become more popular in later years. They broke up in 2002 and after nearly a decade of inactivity The Promise Ring officially reunited in February 2012. Wood\/Water (2002) is the fifth and final album to date by The Promise Ring, and their first for Anti- Records. Long-time fans may have been surprised with Wood\/Water, as it's sound was a departure from the band's previous releases. The album had a drastic change of pace with a more introspective tone and shimmering atmospheric songs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41363391316165,"sku":"THE-PROMISE-RING-WOOD-WATER-2LP-1718","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/6023\/3669\/products\/3821794.jpg?v=1651076505"},{"product_id":"the-promise-ring-nothing-feels-good-lp","title":"THE PROMISE RING 'NOTHING FEELS GOOD' LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eLABEL: Epitaph\u003cbr\u003eRELEASE DATE: 4\/20\/2018\u003cbr\u003eORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 1997\u003cbr\u003eVARIANT: Black Vinyl LP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn their 1997 release The Promise Ring made emo more accessible, which laid the groundwork for the commercially successful acts that would follow. The band showed it doesn't always have to be such a pity party, and that catharsis can come in many forms, particularly in the naively optimistic power-pop of Nothing Feels Good. The pioneering band walked the line between brusque sentimentality and uplifting hooks, making them emo's first pop emissaries. Cheap Trick for hardcore kids. If Fountains of Wayne, Sebadoh, and Jonathan Richman had an emo love-child, Nothing Feels Good might be it's name. The record was a high point for many fans of the band, and is considered one of the pillars of the genre. Perhaps because of this light-hearted yet concentrated approach, Nothing Feels Good landed with the kind of fanfare that hadn't been seen for a band from emo's sophomore class, selling over 50,000 records in it's initial run. Considering a good run for some of their peers was around 10,000 to 15,000 albums, Nothing Feels Good was veritable emo-platinum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Side 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Is This Thing On?\u003cbr\u003e2 Perfect Lines\u003cbr\u003e3 Red \u0026amp; Blue Jeans\u003cbr\u003e4 Why Did Ever We Meet\u003cbr\u003e5 Make Me a Chevy\u003cbr\u003e6 How Nothing Feels\u003cbr\u003e- Side 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 A Broken Tenor\u003cbr\u003e2 Rasberry Rush\u003cbr\u003e3 Nothing Feels Good\u003cbr\u003e4 Pink Chimneys\u003cbr\u003e5 B Is for Bethlehem\u003cbr\u003e6 Forget Me\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46857730851013,"sku":"THE-PROMISE-RING-NOTHING-FEELS-GOOD-LP-1418","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/6023\/3669\/files\/3774984.jpg?v=1788454959"},{"product_id":"the-promise-ring-30-everywhere-30th-anniversary-lp-exclusive-limited-to-300-citrine-vinyl-zine","title":"THE PROMISE RING ‘30º EVERYWHERE’ 30TH ANNIVERSARY LP (Exclusive – Limited to 300, Citrine Vinyl) + ZINE","description":"\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ui-provider gt b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLABEL: JADE TREE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRELEASE DATE: 11\/27\/2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVARIANT: Citrine Vinyl LP + Zine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ui-provider gt b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ui-provider gt b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROMISE RING ‘30º EVERYWHERE’ 30TH 30th anniversary edition includes 2 bonus tracks, remixed by J.
