Divided
Divided is a Belgian band that brings a refreshing combination of post metal, post rock and hardcore. The fourpiece, consisting of Pepijn Vandaele (vocals/drums), Jelle Rouquart (guitars), Torre Maertens (guitars) and Staf Walschap (bass), has been playing together since 2018 and has put out a debut EP titled ‘Riser’.
‘Riser’ came out on the Dunk!records label in 2022. In support of the release, Divided played all over Belgium, including doing support for Brutus, Stake, Wiegedood, ... A tour throughout Europe followed later that year together with the American band Shy, Low. They are currently working on their first album with Gilles Demolder (Oathbreaker, Wiegedood, Siem Reap), that will be released in the first half of 2024. Slowly but surely, Divided is making a name for themselves. And they have no intention of slowing down.
