Anguished cries turn into roaring sound, connecting to hope. Dedicated to everyone who fears falling yet still tries to move forward. Inheriting the spirit of 2000s screamo/metalcore, this is an all-out effort that establishes a new milestone for the 2020s. I Promised the World is a metalcore/screamo band from Texas, USA. Formed in 2020 as Sw!tch, they changed their name to Sinema in 2023, then to their current name in 2025. After releasing music on Rise Records, supporting The Devil Wears Prada on tour, and appearing at numerous festivals, they have rapidly grown into a rising presence in their home country. Having also drawn strong attention here in Japan, they will make their long-awaited first visit to Japan at Bloodaxe Festival in 2026. Their Japan debut release is out now from Militia Inc.
