With their third album, Sweeping Promises continue to establish themselves as one of the most exciting bands on today's post-punk scene.

Following the critically acclaimed "Hunger For A Way Out" and "Good Living Is Coming For You", the Kansas duo expands its sound without losing the urgency and DIY spirit that first put them on the map. This time, a full live drummer adds even more punch to the band's sharp, angular songs, while Lira Mondal's distinctive vocals remain as compelling as ever.

"You Say I Romanticize" blends nervous post-punk rhythms, jagged guitars and infectious melodies with thoughtful lyrics exploring isolation, identity and life on the fringes of society. Echoes of Devo, The B-52's and the Pixies can be heard throughout, yet the band has developed a sound that feels entirely their own.

An outstanding modern post-punk record full of tension, energy and inventive songwriting. Highly recommended for fans of contemporary art punk and adventurous indie rock.
