All That The Rain Promises by Bombadil was released
November 8, 2011 on Ramseur Records |
All That The Rain Promises is much more than any old comeback for the boys of Bombadil, plagued with injuries and cross-country moves, it appeared that these Carolina favorites would never truly get the recognition they deserved after they broke up in 2009 after the release of their heavily heralded release
Tarpits and Canyonlands. Daniel Michalak, singer and bassist, fought through severely debilitating hand injuries that left him unable to even play his instrument without pain, but as we found out back in September with Bombadil's big return show at Hopscotch, Bombadil has risen from the ashes anew and arguably better than ever.
Celebrating their album release on November 12 at The Cat's Cradle with local favorites Future Kings of Nowhere and Jason Kutchma, Bombadil is set to fill the hole left in the Triangle music scene when they left it two years ago. A new found simplicity can be found in
All That The Rain Promises, but their stripped down instrumentation and back-to-basics songwriting has shined a new light on the band. Filled with eloquence and beauty, Bombadil's latest effort is the album that their forlorn fans had all hoped for.
