Info for Divides

Highly charged with political vitriol, the Virginmarys channel their dissolution with government, societies, modern culture into their power packed songs. They're here to start a dialogue their lyrics are meant to both inspire and provoke. More than just being political, the band looks at the world around them and makes a comment to their listeners it's about being engaged, involved in the world, and caring about what they see. And what do they see? Control and divides with governments, wars, people.

The Virginmarys have evolved as a band since their debut King of Conflict, both musically and personally. Having expanded their sonic influences and worked with legendary producer Gil Norton, the band shows new depth in their songwriting and lyrics. The resulting album is an adventurous (and loud) record, taking the listener on lyrical and sonic ebbs and flows of anger, frustration, happiness, self-acceptance, and love. The album has exposed and vulnerable elements too, all packaged into a unique twist of rock, punk, alternative, and even blues. The Virginmarys sum up their music, and themselves, perfectly as drummer Danny puts it, 'it kind of sounds like rock, but not as you know it.'

The Virginmarys
Mixing the power of the grunge era with the vigor of punk, the Virginmarys create driving hard rock reminiscent of the Foo Fighters. Formed in Macclesfield, England in 2006 by singer and guitarist Ally Dickaty, bassist Chris Birdsall, and drummer Danny Dolan, the band set out to create intelligent hard rock that could be visceral and fun without being meatheaded. The lineup would be short-lived, with bassist Matt Rose taking over for Birdsall in 2009, but the years that followed would see the band release a string of EPs, including 2010's Cast the First Stone, 2011's Just a Ride and Portrait of Red, and 2012's Dead Man's Shoes. Their first proper full-length, King of Conflict, arrived in 2013 on Wind Up Records to a significant amount of critical acclaim. In 2015 the band issued a new single "Dust", in anticipation of their sophomore studio long player, Divides, which dropped in early 2016. (Gregory Heaney, Rovi)
