Die schottischen Melodic Rocker THE PROMISE lösen sich auf. Hier das offizielle Statement:

„Over the last couple of years, we’ve found it harder and harder to make progress on the third album, and as everyone knows, the opportunities

for live concerts were becoming more and more rare. We therefore discussed things recently and agreed it was best to accept that the band had reached its logical conclusion and we would „pull the plug“ and give it a dignified death!! We’re all sad about it, but its for the

best. I guess all bands have a natural lifespan – and we’d rather stop now when people (hopefully!!) have positive memories of the band!

Although our debut album came out in 1995, the band actually originated in 1985 under the name Tour de Force, so when you consider we’ve been

around for 17 years I think it’s fair to say we’ve had a pretty good innings.

We want to say a huge thank you to all of our fans for your support, and particularly to the guys at Now & Then, and Frontiers, for giving us the opportunity to bring our music to a worldwide audience. We’ve got some wonderful memories – and have made many new friends along the way.

Our website will remain open at www.the-romise.co.uk so please sign our guestbook with any messages of condolence!!

As a special thank you, we’ve also posted on the website an MP3 of the song „Falling“ which was only previously available on the Japanese

version of our debut album. You can download the whole song at „The Music“ page of our website.

So, in the words of one of our other songs,… It’s the End of the Game!!

Cheers

Gareth, Nods, Ian, Colin

aka The Promise“
