DIVIDE AND DISSOLVE
Sax, drone and rock’n’roll with an anti-colonial message.
ON THE SURFACE, doom metal and prog seem to be from different worlds. Sure, there have been bands that have bridged both – Anathema, Swallow The Sun and Pallbearer spring to mind – but, by and large, the groups whose sound can largely be defined by “side one, track one of Black Sabbath’s debut album” are hardly known for their progressive qualities. But Divide And Dissolve aren’t like other doom bands. If anything, they’re to doom what Black Sabbath were to the blues.
