Divisions

Divisions  – ‘Witching Hours’ (mp3)

I don’t think I could come back from Brisbane and not blog about some Brisbane bands.  I managed to catch a couple of shows while I was up there – This Collison, .hinge (awesome as always) and De Ja Dan Dah (not the reggae band I was expecting) at The Globe in Fortitude Valley on a Friday night, then the next day I headed to the Turbot Street Party (which was obscenely loud) to catch Nina May tear through a great set.

Another band that played at the Turbot Street Party that I didn’t manage to catch because they were on too early in the day and I was holed up in a window-less recording studio was Divisions.

My main issue with this band is that there’s a blatant Muse influence, right down to the bass-driven verses, distorted vocals in parts and epic guitar lines… but that’s not to say these songs are bad.  If this Brissy three-piece found their own sound I reckon we’d be in for a treat.  Tonnes of potential for these kids, so keep an ear out.  I’ll be sure not to miss them next time I’m in the sunshine state.

And speaking of Brisbane music, the Courier Mail (that’s a Brisbane newspaper for you out of town folk) have an excellent blog set up called BrizBands – check it out at http://blogs.news.com.au/couriermail/brizbands/index.php.
