Combining the musical urgency and artistic ambition of their early post-punk predecessors,
ROMANCE creates a sound that is at once familiar and strikingly fresh. Their music blends dark,
catchy and anthemic songs with an intelligent and unique ideology.

Forming in late 2005, ROMANCE struck a nerve with Seattle music fans. KEXP, one of the nations
best independent radio stations, quickly jumped on the bands debut EP, WHEN THINGS ARE BETTER,
putting it in regular rotation. In March 2006 readers of THE STRANGER, Seattle's premier music and arts
weekly, voted ROMANCE as one of the top four up and coming bands in the city.

"Bringing the sense of danger and rock adrenaline back to dark dance music, Romance combines the psychedelic fluidity of early punk/Goth bands with the intensity of current hard-edged indie rock."
Three Imaginary Girls

"Their goth-stained dance punk is damn catchy....harks back to the era of the delightfully lurid dance floor like nothing since "Temple of Love."
The Stranger

"... I press play and lose the ground beneath me. There I am again, back in the clutches of Carl McCoy, Porl King, and Peter Murphy....this is one of the best a.lbums I've ever heard. No I mean, ever. As in, "Are you sure the year's right on this disc?"
Lunar Hypnosis Webzine

"...I hear real interesting song changes and choruses and a myriad of sublte parts intermingling. It seems totally urban sounding like desolate city streets in urgent turmoil. This rocks!"
Gravyzine

"...like delicious candy coated poison."
