“this is an album to challenge, to dismantle and to change perspective” – The AU Review

“the Australian duo’s noisey, pipe-bursting sounds are designed to destroy white supremacy and uplift people of color across the world. Their new eight-track album, Abomination, is a reflection of this ambitious operation through droning songs that crash violently with unruly doom.” – Paper Magazine

“it’s a finely nuanced record and that’s a rare thing in doom” – 4ZZZ

“crucial to the current paradigm of heavy music.” – The Fader

“the kind of bone-rattling music capable of shaking the entire world to its core.” – Afropunk

Melbourne neo-classical heavy band DIVIDE AND DISSOLVE are proud to have released their second album Abomination, out now on Dero Arcade. Featuring singles ‘Assimilation’ and ‘Resistance’, the latter which showcases Takiaya’s standing as a classically trained saxophonist, Abomination is the follow up to Basic, their debut album which won Best Heavy Album at The Age Music Victoria Awards last year.

Divide and Dissolve – Takiaya Reed (saxophone, guitar, live effects) and Sylvie Nehill (drums, live effects) – are a heavy two-piece who create music designed to decolonise, dismantle white supremacy and empower people of colour & Indigenous people the world over.  Abomination is a culmination of their experiences over eight instrumental tracks, drawing inspiration from our ancestors, rivers, forests and bodies of water. The album exists as a platform to transform the experience of space and time, to divide and to dissolve white supremacy, to decolonise, to fight for Indigenous Sovereignty which has never been ceded.
