Luckily for Milwaukee's the Promise Ring, it's true that you can never get too much of a good thing. Having just released their delicious Very Emergency record a few short months ago, they're already back with a four-song EP. Two of the songs here, the title track and "Make Me a Mix Tape," are driving, melodic rockers that were recorded earlier this year before singer Davey von Bohlen's brain tumour operation, while "Strictly Television" and "American Girl (v0.1)" are outtakes from the last album sessions. Perfect summer driving music.
