LP - MARCH VIOLETS, THE - CROCODILE PROMISES

"Crocodile Promises", the all new album from legendary post-punk/goth rock act The March

Violets builds upon the band's 40 year legacy. Founding members Rosie Garland and Tom

Ashton are now joined by bassist Mat Thorpe (who already contributed to the 2007 mini-

Album 'Trinity EP').

"Crocodile Promises" finds the March Violets in top form, creating a reinvigorated take on it's

trademark boundary-shredding goth-tinged post punk. They not only keep the spirit alive, but

they are also a strong live-act, as they proved (among others) in an impressive way at last

years WAVE GOTIK TREFFEN!

The March Violets are a legendary Goth band from Leeds/UK. They started in 1981 as one

of Leeds' four famous drum machine bands and were label mates in the beginning of The

Sisters Of Mercy. Their first two singles (Religious as Hell and Grovving in Green, both 1982)

indeed were out on Andrew Eldritch's Merciful Release label. The band released a number

of highly successful singles under ever changing line-ups (incl. William Faith of Faith & the

Muse and The Bellwether Syndicate) between 1982 and 1986 and 2 compilation of their

singles appeared in 1984 and 1985 - but there was no official debut album until year 2013!
