'anvil-heavy, rhythmically propulsive NAE-WAVE sound; incorporating elements of late '70s lower Manhattan art-noise and mid '80s Chicago ferocity, then embellishing the lot with their own very individual sense of intent and execution.' Optimo Music

Pipe Down Appears on Optimo 3 » There's poetry in the lyrics here (albeit well disguised by banging punk rock). Recorded by Chris White of soon-to-come-on Ten Tracks Playdooh. Full LP out on June 29th on Optimo Music. Log in to download tracks |
Born in Glasgow through a frustration that THEIR kinda music wasn't getting heard in the city, DIVORCE decided that instead of adding to the choir of miserablists and moaners they would instead 'make their own scene'.
They number five: Sinead Youth: vocals - Hillary Van Scoy: guitar/vocals - VSO: bass, vocals - Andy Browntown: drums, vocals - Vickie MacDonald: guitar. They started playing shows around Glasgow last year, garnering some rapturous responses from crowds & critics alike, beckoning comparisons with the likes of Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, Big Black, The Scissor Girls and Swans. They have a four-song 10” EP coming out on Optimo Music this summer & they will be touring the full length of the UK in the following months.
