The new Divide and Dissolve album may be pitched at fans of James Baldwin, Octavia Butler, and Toni Morrison, but – whisper it – it is also
a really good sludge record, finds Noel Gardner
The particularities of how music, especially music without a large commercial platform, is listened to at present will undoubtedly ensure that some people will check out the new Divide And Dissolve album without knowing anything much about the band. They’ll find a powerful, impressively unconventional, predominantly instrumental suite, linking sludge and doom metal with a desolate reading of jazz. Should a listener find themselves content with that – let the music do the talking – that is of course their right, but it runs counter to how this Melbourne duo operate, and what confers much of their importance.
