Split
Divine Eve are back after 15 long years pairing up with fellow Texas brothers of destruction Vex for a vinyl split that will not disappoint. One of the most crushing Death/Doom Metal bands ever to emerge, Divine Eve have returned with their first new material since 1994! Musically influenced by Black Sabbath, Celtic Frost, Hellhammer, Sodom, Venom, Bathory, Entombed's "Left Hand Path" album and Cathedral’s “Forest Of Equilibrium” album, Divine Eve have been often imitated but never duplicated. Lyrically they draw inspiration from pure visions of ancient Pagan history, novel heretical ideologies and dismal shrouded dreams. Divine Eve's impact can be heard in many current acts today but no one can hold a candle to the originators who are finally resurrected from the grave! Vex play a unique brand of Death Metal with their fusion of atavistic aggression and dark melody. Taking influence from artists such as The Chasm, The Crown, Celtic Frost and Dissection, the occasional sonic and rhythmic exploration harkens back to the age of progressive acts like Van Der Graaf Generator, Uriah Heep and Magma. This combination acts as a background to vocal landscapes that portray the most desolate side of the human experience with lyrical influence from writers such as Jorge Luis Borges, W.B. Yeats and T.S. Eliot. Pressed on Mixed Marble vinyl and packaged in a glue pocket jacket with full color insert
