Artist Biography For The Divide

There Are 5 Bands With The Name The Divide 1 The Divide - Davis California.
With A Sound Reminiscent Of Early 90s Bay Area Punk Rock The Divide Has Reaffirmed Not Only A Punk Rock Spirit That Has Been Lost Over The Past 10 Years But Also A Social Awareness That Is Sorely Lacking In Popular Music. With Few Exceptions Punk Rock Ethos Has Been Sacrificed In Order To Appease Current Trends Of Popular Culture. Against This Backdrop The Divide Was Created. Blending Influences Like Operation Ivy The Clash Fifteen Leftover Crack And The Unseen The Divide Has Created Their Own Style Of Politically Motivated Punk Rock. The Result Is A Sound Reminiscent Of Early 90s Ska-Punk With Enough Leads And Background Vocals To Keep Anyone Interested From Die-Hard Street Punk Fans To Pop-Punk Aficionados. The Divide Formed Out Of A Shared Desperation And Disgust Not Only For The Current Music Scene But Also The Current State Of American Politics And Foreign Policy. The Summer Of 2006 Proved To Be A Profound Turning Point. The Band Originally Started As A Continuation Of Lead Singer Isaac “Eye Sac” Thornton’s Previous Band All Dead But Quickly Evolved Into Something Entirely New. Twenty Minutes Of Playing With Drummer Jamie Prior Formerly Of Fifteen Madcap The Mahi Mahis And Countless Other Bands Was All It Took For Both Thornton And Prior To Realize Their Vision Of A Musically Solid Politically And Socially Aware Punk Rock Band. The Rhythm Section Came Together In Full Force With Taylor Street The Backups Minus You Some Assholes Whose Shared Musical Vision And Talent Made Him The Essential Choice For A Bass Player. With The Addition Of Santa Rosa Native Derek Neilson Supplying Lead Guitar And Sharing Vocals The Line-Up Was Complete. After Touring Extensively Throughout California And Nevada In A Mini-Van Playing Whenever And Wherever They Could Giving Away Hundreds Of Copies Of Their Demo Even Sending Them Along With Patches Stickers And Buttons To Kids Across The World For Free The Divide Has Just Completed Their Self-Titled 6-Song EP In Preparation For Their Upcoming US Tour. Recorded By Eric Broyhill 7-Seconds Pressure Point Deftones At The Pus Cavern In Sacramento The EP Is An All-Out Assault On The Current State Of Punk Rock. With Politically Charged Lyrics Relentless Drumming And Awesome Guitar Parts The Only Way To Fully Describe This EP Is Tough As Nails. The Message Is Clear Music Is Power. It Is Not A Means For Prosperity And Fame. The Divide Realizes This Message More Now Then Ever. The Lyrics Pierce The Hearts And Minds Of A Sea Of Raised Fists Echoing Over The Reverberation Of The Guitars And The Bass To The Steady Pulse Of The Drums “Divided We Stand Divided We Fall.” 2 The Divide - United Kingdom. Daniel Furniss Aka The Divide Always Was A Dreamer. Born In Leeds In 1981 It Was At The Tender Age Of Ten He First Became Interested In Rhythm By Meticulously Dissecting His Growing Collection Of Acid House Cassettes. Five Years On And He Finds His True Calling In The Middle Of A Damp And Dark Rave-Floor At The UK’s Infamous Helter Skelter Technodrome. It Was At This Moment He Knew He Had To Utilize His Creative Ideas And Twist The Techno Genre To Express His Ever-Growing Myriad Of Hidden Emotions. Born In What He Sees As The Dawn Of A New Technological Age Daniel Began To Take His Vision Of The Future And Express Them Sonically. With Delusions Of A Cashless Society A Dystopia A Broken World With An Apocalyptic End He Decided To Grab The Techno Beast By The Neck And Use It To Warn People Of A New Unfolding Reality – One Where The Powers That Control Divide Those Underneath. We Are Told To Switch Off Our Brains Embrace Distractions Switch On The TV Go Consume Take The Blue Instead Of The Red Pill Choose To Ignore - To Be Controlled Instead Of Be Free. The Divide Incorporates This Message In His Music In An Attempt To Change Our Very Programming. Ten Years On And With Releases On Construct Rhythm Form Jerk Fine Audio Betamax Template And Blackout Audio Recordings Daniel Has Taken His Message Across The Globe. His Tracks Are Hammered By Innovative DJ’s Such As Dave Clarke And Cari Lekebusch At Events Such As Awakenings Oxygen Festival And I Love Techno. The Response Has Been Nothing Short Of Incredible. So Where Will The Future Take Us? Daniel Is Currently Pursuing A More Purist Sound. Having Based His Degree Thesis On Algorithms And Aesthetics Daniel Believes In Mathematical Expression In Music - Maths Is The Vehicle And The Soul Is The Hand Of The Programmer. One Day The Machine Will Program Itself Become Self Aware The Machines Will Speak. But Until That Moment Daniel Furniss Aka The Divide Will Be Doing The Speaking. And I For One Will Be Doing The Listening. John Carter X-Mag 2007. 3 The Divide - From Adelaide Australia.
