DIVORCE- demo 2002

Divorce was a band that was not to be fucked with...or a band to fuck with relentlessly. Take your pick. They had 2 singers , both large and small, that flew around the room and could sometimes be found screaming their obtuse lyrics at the back of the basement to the least interested person there. They made me like hardcore again at a time when hardcore was boring the shit out of me (think about the end of the bandana thrash era), but to just pigeon-hole them as a simple hardcore band is selling them short. They were tight, inventive, funny without being stupid and manic as shit. This tape got played daily in my attic room in Chattanooga as soon as I got out of bed in the morning. Blast it and bash your head through the window..

  4. Thanks for this, Greg! I'm not familiar with the archive format. Which program do you use to open it?

  5. Boo Boo! I changed the format because I realized I put it in some weird zip format in the first place. Also, I really don't know anything about downloading music.
    Download the zip file, extract the files, it should be easy from there...hopefully. Let me know if you have problems.

  6. The files are still extracting as documents but I tacked an ".mp3" extension on each file name and now they work beautifully. So happy to have this record digitally! Awesome blog, Greg. Keep it coming!
