Promises

Indie rock quartet The Boxer Rebellion release their new full-length album Promises on May 13th through Absentee Recordings. Co-produced with producer Billy Bush in LA, ‘Promises’ is the uplifting and cinematic follow-up to the critically-acclaimed The Cold Still. The band took to their London rehearsal space and transformed it into a recording studio where the songs for ‘Promises’ would eventually come together over the last 18 months. Moving away from the more analog and darker soundscapes that enveloped the band’s previous album, ‘Promises’ is a significant step in a different direction for the London four-piece – a hi-fi, soaring piece of work that truly delivers on the band’s epic, signature sound, and individual skill as musicians. From the retro-glossiness of the album’s opener, ‘Diamonds’ to the wall-of-sound that is ‘Fragile’, to the towering beauty of ‘Low’, ‘New York’, and ‘Dream’, ‘Promises’ presents itself as an evolution in aesthetic – diverse in soundscapes but singular in grand ambition – for a band that continues to push and explore its creative ability with each new release.
