"Promise" comes from Horrorscope, Eve 6's 2000 album, and it's the sound of a young band tightening every bolt. Max Collins wrote the words, sings lead and plays bass, Jon Siebels handles guitar, and Tony Fagenson drums and adds keyboards and backing vocals, with the music credited to the whole band.
Don Gilmore produced and engineered it, even chipping in keyboards himself, and Tom Lord-Alge gave it a loud, glossy mix, so the guitars punch and the chorus comes at you in wide screen. It's radio-ready rock with a nervous, eager heart, built to jump out of a car speaker.
