"... (the single Motherless Land) finds the band perfecting their take on no-frills, honest-to-god British rock with an undeniable punk edge. Fans of Frank Turner will wholeheartedly approve, as will anyone looking for a new song to shout along to while drunk at the bar."
- Consequence of Sound
This second album from British rockers the Virginmarys follows a slew of successful EPs and a debut release in 2013 which saw the trio blaze a trail to international acclaim. While touring the world with the likes of Eagles Of Death Metal, Queens Of The Stone Age and Ash, the group began piecing together the varied and staggering tracks that would make up Divides. The three members then holed up in a studio in Wales for eight weeks where producer Gil Norton (Pixies, Foo Fighters) jested, cajoled and harangued the album of their lives out of them, resulting in one of the most impressive, adventurous and outspoken rock records of the year, tackling themes from the deeply personal to the vehemently political with punk force and melodic panache.
"The overall theme of the album is the divides among people, freedom and power, injustice, inequality and corruption. Anger, disillusionment, injustice, frustration about where I feel we are in today's society. History repeating. Restraint by systems that benefit the few and the choices left to take part or be cast aside and face persecution. The rise of depression and anxiety and use of antidepressants and drugs across the globe. Disillusion in politicians and democracy. There's a lot of divides with us in Britain, many created by the government and media turning people against one another."
